There's only silent appreciation for the attention to detail--the one with knights on it is also decorative, gaining as much as attention as the red ribbon.
She has never thought much about her own ribbon before, so the last one really brings back memories. It's the color that ignites something in her, but she shows no outward signs at all. She doesn't take them out, treasuring them instead by fastening the lid back on. There's a quick turn on her heel, now facing Gilgamesh again with the box in her firm hold.

"I do not understand." ]
As usual, you have fine tastes. [ Her way of saying thank you. Maybe one day, she can readily say it without this feeling of doubt. For now, a roundabout way suffices... It also praises his choice, so it works out. ]
