“Got to make sure you keep some time set aside for the shenanigans your husband gets up to, huh?” Chloe can't help but laugh a little. He isn't usually someone who reminds her of Elena, but this part does, a bit.

Billy huffs, and he momentarily ducks his head a little. It almost looks shy. After all, it's not like he's exactly used to getting called out over stuff like this. Mostly since people don't know about his relationship in the first place, especially not to the extent Chloe does.

"Is it that obvious I spend almost every single moment of my life cleaning up after that man?"

Thankfully he still mostly sounds amused, though now with something a little more shy and embarrassed mixed in.

It's still new to him, talking about it, but Chloe thinks it must be nice after hiding for so long. While still hiding for his own safety.

“Well, he isn't trailing mess everywhere he goes so I assumed.”

It's definitely kind of nice to be so open about stuff he's kept to himself for so long. It's enough for Billy to be smiling just the slightest bit as he talks.

"Cornelius is not as good at thinking of the consequences of his actions as he assumes himself to be." Trust him, Chloe. He's seen this play out so many times.. This is why he thinks Hickey is both the smartest and the dumbest person he knows. "I am more responsible in that regard, so it only feels natural for things to work out in this way."

God knows Hickey isn't going to be thinking about it if Billy doesn't.

"I just don't want him to get himself into trouble here. It would be a pain."

Chloe isn't great at thinking her actions through either, which might be obvious. Her friends back home would get it, though.

“Yeah, that’s fair. You've got your work cut out for you, I think.”

there, we can probably wrap this one here! c:

"You could say that."

Billy knows better than to imagine Hickey won't get into trouble in this place at all. It's kind of inevitable, and it is indeed a pain, but-- the things we do for love, right.

"I will handle that when it happens though. For now I will count my blessings." The blessings of Hickey not having done anything too wild yet.. Only to get into cannibalism next month. He jinxed it.
