[It's... complicated. Kel is waiting for Sunny to take the first step. Or Basil. And this is... all pain. It's like a waiting game where Kel knows Sunny will be upset at him for sharing the truth with Aubrey to begin with, where he doesn't know when things will get out an- all he can go is lying and trying to give support to the only friend he feels he has left. The only one he has managed to keep somewhat around-
Basil is so kind and sweet, how could he even feel so many negative feelings toward him before the other got there? Yes, Sunny got- but he could no longer imagine the other doing it out of malice.
The hand movement brings him back to the real world as he looks at their intertwined fingers and sniff. right, he's making the other worry far too much.]
There... isn't much to say. [He puts a smile on his face, even if it's so forced it wouldn't fool anyone.] I fall asleep, my brain lulls me into a good dream and... then things go south and I can't wake up until it kills me. So... yeah, I just need to... walk. It sounds a great idea, I am just so sorry- you should rest. But... if we don't... [He pushes back, a yawn stopping his words. He's not risking it again as he slides instinctively out of bed, squeezing his eyes and trying to focus again. Okay....okay... he won't fall asleep until he stands up. Right? He offers his hands to Basil once more.]
Want to tell me more about the garden? I like to hear you talk about your plants and... I can use not thinking about... I think it's trying to make me fall asleep again, hah But this time I have you by my side, right?
