Cass nodded, his head spinning though he knew that Percy was right. He needed to make sure this child - his child (that thought still made him want to stick his head in the sand) - didn't suffer more than necessary. He sighed though when Percy went on. 'I'm still going to take part in battles, Percy, you know that. Every wand is needed, I can't sit by.' He paused. 'We can't ignore the possibility - which means we need to know what happens to this child - to Aiden - if that happens.'
Would his mother accept responsibility then? Would he even want her to? But if she didn't - or if it proved to be a bad thing for Aiden to be with her - would Percy even be willing to take over? While they were together it was one thing, but if he died..? Aiden wasn't Percy's responsibility after all. Fucking hell, he couldn't even fully believe he had a kid, or that he was even considering things like this.
The lighter conversation made him smile though, and he shook his head. 'Don't worry, I won't go near the kitchen.' The rest of what was said he tried to just ignore. His head was hurting bad enough already.
