#[ hhhhhrk i'm emo in the best way ]

[kegstandking]

is there any animals he's always wanted? are there animals he's partial to? do you, as the writer, associate him heavily to one, if so, which one and why?

so this question made me emo – but the answer to both is pretty much the same. Billy’s always wanted a dog, especially one from the street or shelters. Give them a home and a second chance in a way he never had. 

The animal I associate Billy with heavily? A pit bull. A dog who, when brought up in a terrible environment can be as nasty as they come. But in truth? They’re like any other dog who just wants a home to be safe in, a family to be with, and someone to care for them. And in turn? They’re unfailingly loyal, can be sweet, big ol’ beef cake dogs. Very much in line with how I interpret Billy as a character.
