Nooroo: But you still shouldn't try to steal the other miraculous. They really are meant to be used for good.
Gabriel: Remind me of what the cat miraculous I'm after does.

To be entirely fair, Gabriel preys on negatively impacted targets because he wants to create villains. I'm fairly sure that he would create legit heroes if he was targeting people with a more positive mindset. Then again, previous Butterfly owners might have targeted heinous and/or desperate people as long as it got the job done.
