[He's almost tempted to shift his arm back, just because it seems like it might be easier on Billy if he had a human hand to hold instead of... this one. But he seemed to want this, so... Teddy keeps it this way, his own fingers closing around Billy's, and he can't help noting how his own hand is so much larger than the other's right now...
The way Billy would act around him while he was like this always awed Teddy, because he acted the same, like he wasn't huge and green and rough and intimidating. Even now, his expression didn't change at all, not even a twitch, and Teddy had been watching close. It never ceases to amaze him, just how much Billy loves him so much that he doesn't even care what form he takes. Within reason, of course.
The question brings back the memory; Nate and Billy in the air practicing air combat, and Teddy and Eli below doing their own ground combat routine. Nate had been further away, so he wasn't close enough to catch him when Billy's magic slipped out of his grasp, sending him towards the ground with a yell.]
Yeah. You scared the hell out of me back then. I shoved Eli away and ran as fast as I could to catch you.
[He can remember the way his heart pounded and how his chest seized with fear, even though they hadn't been together at the time. But Teddy was so head over heels that he knew even then that he never wanted to lose Billy, ever.]
