Cass nodded, knowing fully well that he now needed to act differently than before. However, he had always kept from being an Auror around Miles, Montague and Higgs. Had always kept that part of who he was away from the friendships he had with the three of them.

'I'll try to keep it from a power play at all, Percy. I'll tell him the truth and then I'll let him decide what to do with it. Most likely he'll walk out, and I'll...I'll miss him, but it won't be that much different from when I first became an Auror.'
'I have friends who won't go anywhere too, and I have you,' he added, smiling.
