It sounds like a very obvious lie. Basil falls silent, his expression falling for a moment. He knows better than to call Kel out on it. It'd make him feel even worse... They've both been through enough today.

"... I don't usually sleep through the night. It's okay that I'm up right now."

He'll begin to make his way through the kitchen, opening the cupboards to take out a small tin.

"Maybe... I can make some tea for the both of us...? And if you're upset... I-I can listen to anything you need, Kel. I won't say anything, if you don't want me to."
