Benihime had no response to not being used to taking praise. The fact is, she was so used to not getting praised at all, it was always really strange for her when people recognized her abilities. That being said, surprisingly enough the blacksmith didn't seem to mind of she stayed and watched him work for a while. This was of course, a relief to the redhead, because she didn't really want to have to go full ninja and try and hide herself properly from a sensor, especially one possessing a doujutsu, just to sate her curiosity. That being said his agreement came with the idea that he could use a scroll. The young woman reached into the frills of the outfit she wore and removed a small scroll opening it and pressing her hand to it, to grab another empty one. She brought a great deal of things she thought she might need with her in this way. "Here, empty scroll. And don't worry, I don't need one back, I have a shit ton of them," she said in reply to his last statement.
She held this scroll in her hand while returning the other one to the place on her person she'd taken it from and after she was done, she got to hear the sound of hammer striking metal and get a very nice and unabashed look at Youko while he worked. It wasn't just the metal work which was interesting to the young woman, but the movements of the marks on his skin, of his randomly muscled features and of that long white hair trailing down his back. 'Sugei! He's so interesting to look at,' she thought, feeling a knot at the pit of her stomach. Her eyes hadn't left this man at all, but unlike earlier she wasn't at all thinking of killing him, she was simply genuinely curious. She'd never physically appraised a young man the way she was looking at Youko presently. Her eyes traveled over his body, over the markings on his torso... seemingly without shame.
