Basil walked with Anna out to the forest, beyond excited to actually get back to training. She hadn't wanted to bring it up with Jordan at first, not fully sure how he'd react. After awhile though, the guy seemed to care so little for the rules, she had suggested. She preferred training with Anna though, she took it seriously, where Jordan just mainly goofed off.

She didn't want to say it out loud. She didn't think that she could. She leaned back into Sebastian, hoping he would understand, "I... do not like it.... It... is.... too close to home..."
