Rebecca had very plainly never expected to see Billy Coen again, after leaving him on that hilltop in the Arklay Mountains. The fact that he was in this weird city, trapped, just the same as her... It was a whole new level of surreal.

Still, she'd certainly been speaking with him, and she'd promised to stop by, so after making sure she didn't look a total mess she made her way up the two flights of stairs to the room Billy had designated as his. When she located the correct door she knocked, before stepping back and crossing her arms loosely in front of her.

She was taken a little bit by surprise when he opened the door sans shirt, and blinked, before she managed to speak.

"Um, hey."

"Hey."

He paused, smiled a little smugly and then lowered the towel off his shoulders. After two and a half months of an ordeal every time he wanted so much as a shower (the total number of showers could be counted on one hand, he was sorry to say), it was nice to relax for a while and he'd gotten a little liberal with the shirt.

"You come in, I'll get decent," Billy said, turning around and heading back to the duffel bag on the couch. He dug inside for a minute and pulled out a crumpled T-shirt for a roadside truckstop, the tags still on it-- and once he pulled it over his head, he turned back to face Rebecca again. "Good to see you, dollface."

She glanced down at the floor a little sheepishly when he turned away, before stepping into the apartment and shutting the door behind her. When she'd turned back around she was glad to see he was wearing a shirt.

The nickname got a bit of an eyeroll, and she walked further into the apartment, looking around out of habit. Pretty much the same as hers. When her eyes landed back on him, she smiled, dropping her arms.

"It's good to see you too, Billy. I honestly never thought I would, again."

"No kidding," he agreed, having a seat on the couch as he set his gun down on the coffee table in front of it. "Small parallel universe, or whatever."

He glanced down at his shirt and started working on ripping off the tags. "Honestly, the less you saw of me the better. Thought I'd pretty much heard the last of you, though, especially after hearing about the missile."
