Watermelon Basil is the het ship between Aubrey and Basil from the Omori fandom.

Canon
Basil and Aubrey are childhood friends. She first introduced him to the group after she joined it. After Maris death, Aubrey decided to go to Basils house with him. Basil was pretty quiet on the way. When they arrived, Aubrey saw that all the photos in the photo album were all scribbled with a black marker.

She didn't know that it was actually Sunny who did it. Since she though Basil did it, her and her friends the The Hooligans started bullying Basil. She started calling him names like weirdo. She stole Basil's photo album later on in the game, taking only the pictures of Mari, she threw the rest in the trash.

When Aubrey pushes Basil in the lake, she feels really bad after. It was out of anger and she says stuff like she didn't mean to. She apologizes to Basil later on in the game. In the ending where Basil dies, she is seen sad and upset that her friend Basil died. As there were still friends, even though Aubrey bullied Basil she still felt bad for doing that all to him. In the dreamworld, Aubrey cared for Basil and wanted to help find him.

Fanon
isn't very popular, due to Aubrey bullying Basil. Some rivals of the ships are Sunnflower and Kimbrey, since the ship gets overshadow by these ship. It is described cute by some, but not many.

The ship name Watermelon Basil comes from Aubrey eating a watermelon at the beach scene and Basil being a plant's name, it could also be on how watermelon is Aubrey's favorite food. Additionally, in a room in Black Space, Basil is crushed in a fashion similar to the way watermelons are smashed in Headspace. It could also be from Basil being crushed in blackspace and as Aubrey is his former bully it is like she "crushes" him.
