Hesperia hoped she wasn't too heavy handed, but she truly was impressed! She wasn't very artistic herself, and wasn't skilled as a warrior either. She could sew but nothing too fancy, just the typical mending and clothing that many were encouraged to learn.
"Aishan made jewelry- they would snatch it up for sure." She agreed, nodding eagerly. Some sisters would be offended at selling their cultural goods to Earthlings, but Hesperia thought anything that they could use to trade for other useful things was worth it.
She watched Iphito as she moved her bag around, tilting her head curiously, but when she passed over the bracelet Hesperia gasped and held it up to the light, gazing at it with open admiration. But then - "For me?" She asked, startled. Her cheeks colored and her mouth opened in surprise, but then after a frozen moment she bounced in place, the hand not holding the bracelet fluttering against her mouth in delight. "Really? That's - wow! Thank you!" She carefully clipped the delicate jewelry onto her wrist and admired it, then beamed at Iphito, opening her arms. "Thank you so much! Could I hug you? Please?"
Some of her little girls she watched didn't like hugs, so while Hesperia wanted to fling herself at the other Aishan and squeeze her tightly to show her appreciation, she thought the shaky-voiced artist may balk at being touched without warning.
