"Don't be." Billy tries to shake that off. As glad as he's been when Teddy has been here with him, it's always accompanied by a certain amount of guilt for all the times he'd wished he were there before and known it wasn't fair. He never wanted Teddy to be trapped here with them, but he can't help but be grateful he has him back again.
He pauses. "I um...I dunno? He was nice. Made a real effort. I was sad to see him go, obviously, but I never-...I didn't connect with him the same as Tommy I don't think? He's-...family's been real important to him here." To Billy though, apart from Tommy, and now Teddy, his family's back home. And he misses them desperately, especially being pulled from when he was, he hasn't had a chance to make up for being on the run and separated from them for so long.
