[Teddy sounds so certain, and he really does have no doubt that Billy will beat this. This is a huge obstacle, it is, but he's seen Billy's goodness, his vitality and spirit; he's seen him beat out another spirit that possessed him, he's seen him beat the trauma that came from the Cube, he's seen him do all kinds of amazing things.
This is one huge hurdle, one that will take quite a bit of time to get over. But Teddy has nothing but faith in Billy's ability to beat this, as well.
He doesn't wipe his tears away, doesn't encourage him to stop. He figures Billy needs this as much as he needs to be touched and grounded. As much as he doesn't like to see him cry... It's something of a blessing right now. He simply strokes the tiny little hairs at the back of Billy's neck and keeps his other hand where it is.]
It might take a while... But you will. And if you ever need me, I'm always going to be right here. You just need to tell me if you do.
