Billy was pretty sheltered. That might've been what he really liked about him - maybe that, and the envy that he had for him and all he had. Billy had the cool reality bending powers, Billy had the loving family, Billy had the stable relationship - to Tommy it seemed that finding Wanda, to Billy, was just a matter of seeing if a fantasy was true or not. Just... some idiot kid that needed protecting, partly from the world but mostly from himself.
That's why he was the big brother. The one always getting in the way, the one who'd done bad and could still do worse. Tommy was no stranger to what his past could lead up to - super villainy was written all over him, in his criminal past and in his less than morally upstanding ideas. Billy was the golden child, he was the hero, and... Tommy was okay with that.
As long as he wanted to keep being a hero.
They'd never really used the "f" word, though. Brothers, yeah - brothers was kind of noncommital. Calling the Young Avengers a family was the same thing, but brother to brother?
Tommy shrugs a little, disguising any embarrassment or otherwise unwanted feelings with a lopsided smirk. ]
I don't think I can ditch you at this point, so yeah... That's what we are.

Family.
To hear it from Tommy, so casually, so... accepting of it, is huge. And he knows that his brother - his brother, for real and forever now - isn't one for hugs, but Billy can't do this sort of thing without some kind of physical contact. Not when it's this intense, this important.
Opting to meet him in the middle, since one arm is out of commission anyway, Billy reaches out and wraps his fingers around Tommy's hand, holding it between them and giving it a grateful squeeze. He'll hold on as long as Tommy will allow or until it starts to feel awkward, he's just... he's so glad.
So, so glad.]

Oh.
Damnit Billy. Tommy stares down at his hand and with a
tsundere as hellirritable sigh, allows it. ] Are you like, part barnacle or something?[action, october 16th]
[But Tommy letting him do it just makes him smile even more.]

...Thanks. I know it's a weird thing to thank somebody for, but... yeah. Thanks.
