Faking would mean having people perjuring themselves. In addition, it destroys all sense of independence that department has. Answering them was never an option for us."
Percy smiled softly as the tension began to seep out from Cass. He knew that the man wasn't really relaxed, but fatigue was taking over, but it was still better than the lifeless state he had been in for weeks. "Try to sleep now. I'll be here until the morning, but if you don't find me... I'll be back later, okay? Now, sleep."
