Like Mari's, this SOMETHING is a representation of trauma rather than guilt, and will be around permanently. Unlike the canon SOMETHINGs' noot-noots, and Mari's SOMETHING's distorted airhorn, Basil's SOMETHING's sound is somewhat like a groan.
The design... honestly doesn't come across well in the drawing, unfortunately. I tried. Unlike with Mari's, where the top is Sunny's hairline, Basil's has it at the bottom. It represents the part he played, IE the hanging of the corpse, rather than the actual accident. Rather than a terrified eye, this one is half-closed and dead.
Rather than the occasionally manic and wiggly SOMETHING that Mari has, Basil's SOMETHING simply wraps its "rope" around his upper arm and sways lazily as if in a calm breeze. It's not especially expressive, and doesn't often make its sound. It doesn't attract any PHOBIAs like Mari's does, either.
The next thing I'll draw is probably Mari's PHOBIAs; MALUPHOBIA, OTIOSUPHOBIA and ANTHROPOPHOBIA (yes I'm aware I made the names for the first two myself, I tried to do it correctly).
