he said, knowing full well her origins. "You'll have to heat it up though."

It may very well make Claire angry that he kept an eye out. Nothing serious, certainly not enough to be 'spying' but he did take notice of anything that concerned their abilities, and the Kallisti had been on his radar for some time after Jaxen's exploits there. How or what, he did not know, but he had some suspicions.
Whether she would be angry or not, it did not matter. He was not worried about her specifically - she was capable of looking after herself - but he looked out for his own kind.
