Boy, bar, several pieces of lined paper and a scowl.

He needs to figure out who to write notes to, and how to say what he needs to say.

Judging by the collection of balled-up papers nearby? It's not going well.

"Oh, speaking of Teja. He told me something you should know. What was it..." Teddy thinks for a second, and then remembers.

"'If the ones that you love... are fighting also, by your side or somewhere else... then you must trust him that he can fight as well as you do, and stop turning your head towards him all the time.' And then he said to walk the narrow gap between fearing for you, and knowing you were fighting along with me.

"I think it was more that you not let that cripple you. Same here," he says, kissing Billy gently. "I worry because I love you."

The kiss is reassuring, a rock of love.

"It'll be okay. Kate said it'll be okay, right?"

"Okay," Teddy says with a forced smile. "Next letter, then."

Teddy's pushing, because they have to get through this.

"Okay, you tell me what you want to say for them. I barely know Will, really."

Teddy tries not to crack a smile, and fails. "If it works for you, it works for me."

"Okay." He's not going to stop that frown with a question, and opts to fluffle Billy's hair instead.

"Okay. Next?"

"Okay." Jenny's takes a little bit more thought, and there are several revisions before it's finally done. "Do you want to write one to Jay?"

"Yeah, good idea," he says, giving Billy a half-hug, and leaning against him a little.

Long pause.

"I have one for Dinah, and that's it, right?"

"Yeah, that's true. Maybe we should do that too."

Never hurts to be overprepared.

"Okay. You write that one and Esfir's, and I'll write mine for Dinah."

Teddy will copy them for neatness later, if Billy wants. But right now, he's writing his own in flawless cursive.

(Homeschooling has its benefits.)
