[ He pauses for a long while, trying to process what he just heard. ]
You're drunk. [ But he can't just hang up on that no matter how much he wants to. ] It wasn't you.
I could tell it wasn't you. When I was dying down there I knew that you were dying, too. Or already dead. [ He exhales sharply. ] I know you'd never want to do anything like that and having that choice taken away is some awful shit.
[ He does feel sad for Steve, and that just makes it even worse. He's out here feeling bad for his goddamn enemy now? But of all the people Billy knew from back home, Steve's the one he had the most positive connection with.
And given that he punched him in the face multiple times that's really pathetic on his part. ] You don't have to keep doing this for me. You don't owe me anything. I've hurt you and most of your friends.
[ And he doesn't apologize for it, but he acknowledges it at least. It's just starting to feel weird that Steve keeps reaching out to him like this despite everything. It seems weird that they're almost friends. ]
