I never said trouble was a bad thing. [Pointed out breezily, entirely unaware of the moral struggle the poor Cat was going through on his shoulder, leaving Charles entirely unworried about the idea of flirting. He was, at his core a people pleaser, had a deep want for affection and companionship, so this little interaction? Was hitting just right in this moment when he was so very unmoored and alone otherwise. It was a lot easier to not focus on that when he had someone to tease.] But I'll keep an eye on you then, yeah? Since you seem so keen on the idea and all.
[As if he'd mind doing it. Something about the back and forth here was... well strange, for the fact that Charles had no real idea of himself or of the Cat beyond this brief period. But on the other hand it was so easy to fall into the pattern as they walked on, a simple enough path to follow, even memoryless as he was in the moment. Whatever else, he found he was enjoying the playful conversation, and in a period of such uncertainty he was going to grab hold of that with both hands.
If things weren't as they seemed later? Well he'd figure that out when he got there. For now the idea of keeping an eye on this troublemaker of a Cat suited him right down to the ground.]
