( Basil remembers the night before -- the moonlight reflecting from the garden shears, Aubrey's voice coming from the doorway asking for forgiveness. By then, it was too late. He had already made his decision. He was tired. With his Grandmother gone and Sunny leaving, he knew he'd truly be alone. Basil would be trapped in Faraway with nothing but his memories at this point.
When he had found himself in the cavern, he feels like it must be a bad dream. Perhaps someone had found him before he had succeeded. Maybe in reality, he never attempted to try to end things. Maybe this was the afterlife.
But, all of those thoughts are forgotten as soon as he catches sight of his friend.
When he finds Sunny in the Cavern, he barely catches him pushing himself to the surface. It feels like instinct when he makes his way to him, quickly leaning down to help him in whatever way he can. )
