Cass smirked. 'You'll find no objections from me,' he said. 'I've learnt the hard way that underestimating woman because they look frail is a mistake.' Ginny had made sure of that. She looked frail, but that was an illusion you quickly got hexed out of your system if you wasn't on your guard.
He smiled when she talked of Percy, nodding. 'Then we agree,' he said. 'Percy is and will always be the most important thing for me. If I see that there is any risk at all - to him, to the department or to our relationship - I will resign immediately.' On that he wouldn't compromise.
Her laughter was infectious, he had to admit, though the subject wasn't one he liked he still couldn't help but to chuckle a bit. Still he wasn't going to lie to her, he had his reasons for not liking Antonin. He was not only rude, but thoughtless and dangerous - neither things which Cass respected. He couldn't really understand why someone like Morag could find a man like that attractive, but of course he didn't say that out loud.
Instead he told another truth. 'Not only did your husband dismiss me with all the politeness most purebloods show their house elves, he also compared me to my grandfather. If that was not enough to make me dislike him he also insulted Percy and suggested that Aurors are cowards because we, they, prefer arrests to kills and because they won't go and kill people on suspicion alone but actually wants things like proof of their involvement in something. He seemed to think possible innocent victims were merely collateral and that is a view I can never respect,' he said calmly, being careful to not to let his voice betray the level of disrespect he actually felt. Just as he didn't add out loud that Dolohov's stance was an insult to everything he believed in.
