It was night as Marinette watch the out her window, ready to set out tommorrow to search for the Shadow Lord. The rest of the crew had decided to stay in Lila home except her. She was on the ship figuring out the navigation. Chaton was below deck avoiding the showers approaching. "Your window was open." Claws says, that had it been an invitation..

"If someone doesn't use the door, they are more than likely nefarious than honorable."

"I never claimed to be honorable." His frown is back, like she's struck some kind of chord. "Aren't you curious?" Claws asked instead and leant back on her vanity, legs crossed as his hands found hold on the edge of the furniture's surface.

"About what, beside how you pass the cat bodyguard?"

"My name?" the blond shrugged with a grin when a contemplating expression settled on her face before she drew a shoulder slightly.

"Wouldn't it be a... disadvantage for you, if I knew?" the confused pirate asked back.

Fair question. But there was something about her that drew him in, wanting to stay, wanting to prolong his time. His eyes shamelessly wandered over her form.
