Yes, he has a small jar in one of his waistcoat pockets.

Bonesaw licks a lollipop she has in one of her pockets and swirls it around in the jar real fast, to add some extra fun, and then starts pushing the candy infused jelly into his eye socket with the hand that isn't holding the eye. She has to peel back some bits of skin near the corner to properly get into the tear duct but her fingernails are very sharp so she can do that sort of thing. 

After a minute of this she pauses and produces a fork from her pocket.

 "Okay one last bit - it's very important that you don't move, or else it'll feel much worse and your eye might come out. So no moving."

And then, before he gets a chance to respond, she rams the fork into the back of his eye socket at full speed.

He--twitches, slightly.

That's much more polite than her average Friend!

"You did a good job! I'll do your other eye now," she says, going to repeat the process.

The Aesthete watches, her chin propped up in the palm of one hand. 

"Are you going to put his eyes back in the sockets, after?" she wonders aloud. "I think it would be more interesting to leave them out, like that, if you had some way of making it so he could move them about on those red cord things...of course, just removing eyes in general is a bit declassee. No offense." 

"None taken," the Seamstress says softly.

"Hmmmm..." She really likes these people!

"I'd need to figure out a way to leave them out that doesn't make accessing the tear ducts easier since that would ruin how he'll want to make himself cry a bunch to get at the jam cause of all the sweetness I added."

She thinks on the idea some more - she doesn't want to ruin how addictive her lollipop's sweetness will make the tears but it feels rude to ignore such a good idea. 

"Maybe I could make it so they retract if he tries to poke at them like turtles do, but go out and explore the rest of the time? Though I would probably need more time and tools for that."

"Maybe the wandering eyes should be a separate project," the Cremini/Jam-Spackled Artist suggest dryly. "I know of more than one piece of art that tried to do too many things at once to succeed at any of them."

Bonesaw nods - she's learned this too, after a piece of art she made when she was just starting out ripped itself in half cause it tried to do too many things at once. 

"That's probably right."

She makes some final adjustments to the sockets and pops the eyes back in.

"Ta-da!"

The Jam-Spackled/Cremini Artist pulls out a pocket mirror to see if he can see anything different.

His eyes are a bit poofy, though that will go away over the next couple of days. Other than that it looks the same.
