   Summary

   "Please."

   The plea made no sense to the super, an incomplete request. "What?"

   Billy approached her, grabbing her by the shoulders with a visceral roughness. "Bring him back."

    

   Or: Immediately following the events of the finale, Billy Butcher makes the decision to resurrect a powerless Homelander, forcing himself to bear the consequences.
