[Hilarious. Absolutely hilarious. A dozen things are absolutely hilarious in this situation, but the funniest one of all is that Horatio thinks Cassel can leave. That that is the one thing Cassel is absolutely unable to do. It goes against his conscience. It goes against his conditioning. It hurts his heart.]
[In this moment Horatio reminds him so much of Zane that he thinks he might split in two, starting yelling or crying or curl up in a ball.]
[He does none of these things. Instead, he crosses the floor and rests his hand lightly on Horatio's shoulder. He knows what could happen - what Horatio could do to him. Is likely to do to him.]
Spam - my heart aches

No.
Let it out.
