Claire doesn't particularly like her codename being called "cute", but she's in a new place and Rikki probably didn't mean to be condescending. Probably. Still, it puts her a little on edge and she only just manages to stop from reaching out to snatch her duffle bag back, the movement aborted stiffly. She grabs her backpack instead.
She's just trying to help. Claire will not get upset with her. There will be plenty of time for "please don't touch my shit" later.
"The quieter one," she responds quickly, before Rikki's even quite done with the sentence. "I don't like... um, loud noises, I don't like them. Not when I'm trying to rest."
