( the fox is generally smart enough to not let billy accidentally kill it via forgetting food; he leaves the window open for him, elliot comes and goes as he feels is necessary. as far as having a pet goes, it works well. )

You're going to talk to me, too. Okay? About this.

( he's not casting spells yet. the moment he leans away, starts letting magic lace his tongue, bends space and time to his will and fixes loki's injuries, he's sure loki's going to try and leave again. billy would. )

I'm glad you opened up to me about what happened before, but I want to know what's going on with you now, too. This isn't just--flesh wounds.
