"I'm not afraid of bats!" Was the most eloquent, on-topic thing that Cass could really say, sitting down on a rock as he tried to pry his eyes away from Henn and his cousin. He shook himself out of it and nodded, "Oh yeah, it's been great. I love the weather down here. Of course, storm season's almost over now, so it's just rainy once in a while. And it's almost winter! I'm going to be teaching Miniver how to snowboard, and of course, I'm taking my beautiful lady up to the slopes for a weekend or two. Nothing's cozier than a lodge up in the alps."
Yeah, even babbling didn't help him keep from watching the subtle gestures of the girls.
