The engineer glances around appreciatively at the accommodations that the Ringmaster has conjured up. Haha! There's sunflowers. She wins!

No time to revel in that small and extremely petty victory though. Peridot leans forward, boggling at now reduced egg for a moment, until the Ringmaster's explanation makes her look up sharply.

"You're giving it to us?" she repeats with surprise, which probably isn't a great look on someone who has just been entrusted with a huge responsibility but. Cut her some slack! This is a big deal! Shima's glance doesn't go unnoticed either, and she tilts her ears back nervously, looking back at him. "I mean-- It's not like I can just put it loose in my gauntlet-- I have other stuff in there, what if it breaks!?"

Just saying that out loud makes her realize just how little she understands about how the hammerspace enchantment works.
