I appreciate you wanting to help, but couldn't you have started with something easier? Like deceiving Dispater or something simple like that?"<br/><br/>He held up a hand to forestall their rebuttals. "I am not saying you haven't had successes, but Barid's intelligence division has been the biggest threat, even moreso than himself, that I have ever faced in any of my past lives.<br/><br/>I am also concerned about the whole... 'husband' thing, as well as the fact that Cat is pregnant, though the last is less because grandchild, and more because I may have taken certain liberties with augmenting you two when you were children."
