Are you re-offering strip chess now? That'd also be a nice present.
[ Fired back immediately, because that's too good of an opportunity to just let pass right on by without any comment. Even more so since there's now a theme going here and since he remembers that line and all the others too well, and maybe if he wasn't still busy holding onto Sylvain's face he'd add some other kind of gesture here to the board like pushing it forward to dare the other right into that no longer quite a dare, but something close it it.
When it comes to who'd get the better deal out of it, Claude just hums in response. He's pretty sure he doesn't have to elaborate that he's confident in his skills - and really, part of the present would absolutely be stripping Sylvain of his clothes one item at a time.
For now, though, he lets that pass by since that's teasing they can pursue another time if not in five minutes after Sylvain settles what he needs to do. Claude happily returns that kiss before letting the other man go. There's a second where he leans back in his seat then thinks better of it, and carefully picks up both of his gifts to put them down on the sideboard where they'll be out of the way. ]
Some chess - strip or not - and tea to go with it sounds rather nice, but that can wait until you're done spoiling me with your chef skills first.
