[Right. Bad magic versus good. Billy puts his hands out like he's weighing one thing versus the other.]
Well, bad magic... any magic can be bad if it's in the hands of someone who's going to use it for bad reasons, you know? That's like anything powerful. But there are some magic things that are just... big no's, kind of.
Like necromancy, for example. Where you use magic to bring back the dead? It's frowned upon, if only because you shouldn't mess around with the dead, and that's before you get into the whole timestream issues. [He pauses.]
Altering reality and taking away everyone's powers and wiping their memories? Bad magic. [But she didn't do it. That wasn't her. He knows it wasn't her.]
