He stood up, pocketing his pistol and smiling a little shyly. "I'd love to be your new boyfriend. Though I'm not sure I'm such a great catch."<br/><br/>He pulled off a glove and extended his claws fully.<br/><br/>"I cut the body ropes on the way here, and freed my legs once they dumped me in this closet." He sighed. "I think you should know I was going to sucker whoever came in to get me close then threaten them with my pistol to keep them silent. I'm just as glad I don't have to, because I'm not sure I could do it convincingly. I've never killed someone I considered a person before, even in self defence."<br/><br/>He ducked his head. "I'm sorry if you think I deceived you, but  I meant every word I said when we were talking. I don't _want_ to hurt anyone. And I do think you're beautiful, and more. If you're no longer interested, all I ask is a 5 minute head start."
