[ Certainly a strange message to get out of the blue, especially given that he's just had a conversation with Billy for the first time in months. But, curious. ]

Good morning to you too.
Is something the matter, Miss Morales-Kocchar?

[chuffle]

Oh, niceties aren't necessary.

He needs a friend and I guess you'll have to do.

[shavedaway]

What happened?

[chuffle]

It doesn’t matter. What matters is he needs someone who likes him to be there for him, and the less they are enthused about me the better.

[ That certainly is an assumption about how he feels about her, but he won't correct it. Instead -- ]

I would say it matters if I'm going to be picking up pieces. I'll have been your last port of call I imagine.

[ He says, literally, as he's messaging Billy. ]

[chuffle]

You're my first.

[shavedaway]

I'm honored to have your confidence.
Surely he has friends that he'd be happier to see than myself.

[chuffle]

He really liked you. A lot.

[shavedaway]

[ awkward. ]

I was quite fond of him myself.
He's a good man.
I'll see what I can do about cheering him up.
