Ouch. If Eddie didn't think the dramatics would go down like a lead balloon, he'd act all wounded by that comment. Billy's not in a position to judge, as far as Eddie's concerned; blowing smoke over the table at him, like some dragon. Some weirdly pretty when pissed off dragon...

He gestures with his thumb over his shoulder and mimes starting to get up, though he doesn't actually go through with it. Instead, he turns his head to look at Billy expectantly.
