Not scared or nervous, just lazy. Claire holds onto his leash without pressure or restraint, and he sits down like a good boy right in front of Kate's hand, clearly expecting praise for the one command that he knows very well as opposed to nothing for one that he doesn't. Claire stares at Kate's hands, noting the scars, faded as they are, and laughs softly when Diablo doesn't shake but does reach sharp little puppy teeth out to gnaw and slobber all over Kate's fingers. ]

She isn't worried about him bolting into the hall with the door closed behind them, so she drops the leash. She is worried that she feels guilty for not having checked in with Kate sooner, when she's been going through a hard time, and a little worried that she still feels sort of annoyed despite being the one to reach out. ]
