(Thank you!  You are dishing out too many compliments.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!)

Unfortunately, the basilisk seems to sense you. It raises its head to look in your direction, but doesn't stop mopping the floor. Strangely enough, it doesn't seem to be looking at you, but instead gazing at your feet. Maybe it is actually blind? Or perhaps its trying not to make eye contact for some reason. Anyway, it averts its gaze somewhere above your shoulder, probably looking at something behind you. Then it whispers something, too quiet for you to hear.

You glance behind your shoulder but only catch a glimpse of something slithering away. It could be a patient who had broken free or a mutilated Master. Either way, the creature is clearly scared of the basilisk to the point that it runs away from it. Your eyes return to the basilisk as it rests its gaze back at your feet and continues trying to clean the floor. It is not obstructing either of the doors, but it seems to be watching your steps very, very closely.
