[keeping secrets. Not telling about Grell's true nature was supposed to be their safety net....but she hated the idea of someone getting hurt for her silence.]
That lady...
James, it might be better to find someone else to cut it.
[He manages to make it sound light, but the tremor of worry is still present in his voice and his hands and neck are twitching in an odd sort of fashion that could call to mind a nervous bird.]
