Having no idea he's said anything out of place, Themis silently questions the look he's given in response. Immediately he starts to go over his words, but he's unable to find anything wrong. Perhaps his own happiness is clouding his perception? But he's generally prided himself on being able to resist such detriments. Again, he would be terrible at his job if he couldn't.
At any rate, Erichthonios appears to be going through some thoughts of his own, and so instead of asking aloud, Themis simply watches and waits, soft smile settled on his face once his eye is caught.
"Quite right. Ask anything of me that you may need," he nods, rather liking that response a lot better. "Now, there is still much to be done." Like that persistent mark barring their way, toward which he heads off to confront. Hopefully Erichthonios decides to join him, otherwise he's asking the air "Will you be continuing your practice now? Certainly it is important, but overworking oneself can also lead to avoidable mishaps." This is absolutely something he's recently been told, and not necessarily an idea formed from his own mind. Still, it seems to hold merit, even if he finds it difficult to follow the advice himself.
