For the whole of the thing, the two of them are silent, listening. And the more that Tommy talks, the more horrified Billy looks. At one point his eyes actually flash to David, pained. At last, he reaches for the letter. Which he settles in his stomach before pulling Tommy into his arms to hug him.
"You're not responsible for what was done to you," Billy promises his brother, his voice soft and sad. "I'll never blame you for that," he insists.
When he's done, he pulls way and opens the letter. as he reads it, he looks angrier and angrier. AT last he starts cursing in Krakoan. Cursing until he finally holds it up and burns the thing between his fingers.
"William, what...?" David asks, concerned.
"A dear john letter," Billy hisses out. "He sent me a DEAR FUCKING JOHN Letter!"
