It feels like a slippery slope, but it also feels good to be under the attention, so the Cat struggles to make himself want anything other than this to simply continue.
He can't exactly say what is on his mind in response to Charles comment, because the only thing taking up enough space in his thoughts is, in fact, Charles himself - and the Cat feels like somehow the ghost might not have the best reaction to it given that he knows so little about himself that thinking on his darker moments almost caused a haunting.
But he doesn't want to leave his thoughts unshared, wants to reiterate the reciprocal reaction here before they inevitably must get back to the actual point of their game... So, he exhales and then bursts into a small plume of violet flame, and left behind is a perfect mirrored replica of Charles himself, standing there looking incredibly smug with half lidded eyes and the easy slouch to his frame the Cat had only ever seen Charles revert to around Edwin. ]
