Basil

Basil (バシル) was Elysia Takashiro's pet rabbit that she owned when she was 7-14 years old. Elysia first found Basil out in the grass near her parents' animal pen, and when Basil started to take a liking towards Elysia, she decided to keep him as a pet. She would hide Basil outside in a wooden crate and frequently go outside to talk to him and hide from her parents. Because Elysia wasn't very close to her parents and she didn't have many friends growing up, Basil was her best friend. Elysia would talk to Basil, show him her drawings and feed him scraps of food from the house.

Elysia was incredibly heartbroken when Basil passed away in his sleep one day due to old age, and made her rabbit mask from scratch in memory of her Basil, her best friend and only pet.
