—Fyodor Dostoevsky

I AM NOT INTERESTED IN LIVING A LIFE WHERE I COWER AWAY FROM BEAUTY OR GOODNESS BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIAL TO BE HURT. I AM BARRELING TOWARD IT. LIFE IS GOING TO CRACK ME OPEN LIKE A PIÑATA AND I AM GOING TO LET IT.

Perhaps Billy hitting Steve in the chest while he's crying. His slaps and punches getting slower and less forceful the more Steve pulls him in, wrapping his arms around him, shushing him gently. Stroking his hair, forgiving Billy for the rage. Perhaps.
