Cass seemed confused, then suddenly blushed, clapping a hand over his mouth.

“Oops,” he murmured, smiling. “I meant ‘worrier’.”

so i was thinking of another fave calthazar thing and like

cass making balthazar blush is criminally underrated

i’m talking completely red, tongue tied, can’t breathe

like cass blushing is adorable bc balthazar probably surprised him

but balthazar is always looking at cass like he’s ready to be knocked off his feet

and cass still gets him every single time
