Rinoa hurts for him, but she also doesn't believe for a second that Billy made that. She shakes her head, still having an arm around his shoulder comfortingly. "No, I don't think that's possible. I think you can make someone desire you, or be infatuated with you, but not love. I've been under spells and I've seen other people under spells, it's not that easy. If you did make him love you, if that's what was happening, you could've just done it again. Subconsciously or not, all you'd have to do is use your influence and he wouldn't have stopped. He wasn't under your spell, maybe he just wanted to think he was, because then everything was your fault from start to finish." She doesn't know Teddy, but she knows the blame game when she sees it.

She wishes she could take it away from him, and can almost feel the power well up inside of her, but she has amazing ability to suppress things. Even these new powers could be denied quickly. "You can't spend your life being afraid to love people, Billy. Closing yourself off to those emotions is how people like us can go the wrong direction. Empathy is what keeps us sane, and the fact you care so much is why you are a good person. You have us here to help support you and care for you."
