He'd expected that all of this mess was something Abasi got caught up in after college, once their friendship fell apart—so the news that he'd actually been aware of the Spirit Realm's existence since he was a child comes as a surprise to Kaveh. That means he already knew about all of this when he and Kaveh were close friends, but he'd never said anything.

Gah!
[ Kaveh nearly drops his drink in shock, his eyes going wide. It doesn't take him terribly long to recover, but the Klefki genuinely caught him off-guard. ]
