[Kel has seen enough of Basil to trust him. He knows that whatever happened, it wasn't out of malice- not now, not anymore. He can, also, at least try to keep Basil gounded away from 'ghosts did it'. Something is already problematic as it is.]

Basil. Listen. Sometimes bad things happen and it's no one's fault. I think there was no real winning condition, there. We had no exit, how many hours did we even walk in the dark? It's... It's something that happened and if someone has to be blamed, it's me, not some kind of horrible ghost that would have been left alone if I didn't bring you there. But... shit happens and we... accept it.

[He moved in front of the other, offering a rather warm smile, way more natural than the one he wore the night before.]

What matters is: we're here, together, and we both made it. You're right. Things are we okay. We'll be more careful from now on and it'll all be fine.

[He moves closer to gently pinch the other's cheek. Kel knows he'll explore again, this place leaves them with far too many questions, but Basil should be left safe and on his own.]

Mh.. breakfast in bed sounds nice. What can I make for you while you prepare tea? We can just call this a lazy day.
