neutral  aliyucel: "Sürünerek ilerleyen kahkaha" biraz saçma değil mi? "Pençelerinde" gayet uygun tabii.

-e sızan...pençelerinde


Explanation:
Kapalı bir mekandan (tavernadan) dışarıya süzülen bir ses bu...
Adam sesin geldiği yönü önce kestiremiyor, sonra yerini tespit ediyor (because the laughter occasionally slithers out of the door/windows of the tavern)..

"Bir yerlerden karanlık ve puslu Dover gecesine sızan gülüşmeler pençelerine bir kurban düşmüş acımasız adamların sesiydi."
