The little narrowing of Edwin's eyes is as endearing as it is frustrating; annoying, because Edwin still hasn't got the hang of the fact that the Cat very rarely actually lies about anything, but endearing because it's so very Edwin that it douses some of the annoyance he'd felt both at being stopped and at being the subject of mistrust.
He's endeared only further by what Edwin says next, and his smile is affectionate as he laughs surprisingly warm for a Cat who'd been huffing mere moments ago.
"Ah- I guess it's too much of an Americanism for puppy to have walked you through something like this when telling you about his sexcapades." Because while the Cat doesn't know for certain that Charles has told Edwin the ins and outs (haha) of his experience when he was alive, he would easily put money on the possibility that he has. A guy with that kind of eagerness, that kind of physicality? Yeah. "They're stages in a relationship, or a potential one. First base is kissing, or making out, and because it spans such a wide variety, people can stay at first base for months, steadily getting closer and closer to second base, which involves a little more..." He raises his hands, tensing his fingers to imitate a crude chest grope.
"So we're at first base. And I know what you think about me and about my nature, but I've learned my lesson about giving you too much too fast. I have no intention of doing anything you won't like."
