Percy winced at the question. He objected to it for too many reasons, but he had no place to speak when he had violated so many ethical rules in the first place. After a moment he nodded. "Yes, we've been involved for months, and yes, we are together. As I said, I will make it public. I will not lie, but the statement will be worded in such a way as to make people think that we got involved after this latest injury. If people take it that way, I can't help it, but again, there will be no lie. I won't do that to any of the people involved, and it would look better if it does come out."
He sighed. "Yeah, I assume she's dead, but we don't know for sure. If there is any way to find out... Miles Bletchley would be a nice place to start. He's the one that contact Cass and he has the Dark Mark. He might be able to cooperate for the right reasons."
Percy smiled. "Don't look so shocked. I am capable of being 'nice' to people, although I can see how the idea of Cass settling down is strange."
