"Hey, of course I want to! I don't mind trying out anything with you." That much is very true. Especially if it's something Taiki likes - then it feels even more important to him to take it seriously, to put in some real effort. Taiki can use every shred of happiness he can get his hands on, and surely a friend enjoying his hobby together with him would be more than just a shred of it, right?

So ssh, whatever, it's fine. He'll get over himself! He'll just do what he can do.

And Jumblie seems more than eager to help, especially at Taiki's encouragement. The tiny creature is already grabbing Taiki's brush, waving it around in the air as if she's demonstrating that she can do it! Look, she's an artist!

(She seems to be making sure to not get splotches of paint on Taiki's work though. Like she's a weird combination of enthusiastic, yet also considerate.)
