But he's not going to say that, or that Cass did everything she could, or that ultimately she couldn't do much about Loki's unwillingness to be helped. They're all true, and they've been true of Inmates he's lost before, but the only thing to dull the pain of the idea you've failed is time.
And he's not sure if that's time she wants to spend alone, right now. It's rare that it is, but he doesn't want to press his company on her.]

I'm sorry, Cass.
