"It looked very peaceful.
"I said, 'Bronson' ... no response."
Blandthorne said he was still in the dark about how the deaths, which police are still investigating, occured.
Detective Inspector Mark Thompson has revealed that a note "gives us an indication as to how things occurred". Police are no longer seeking anyone else in involvement with the case.
"One thing I will say is it did look peaceful," he said.
"That's all I'll say until we do find out the facts because I still don't know what the cause of death was for either of them."
Blandthorne expected to see Ellery on Friday but when he arrived at the unit and knocked on the door there was no answer.
After recieving a text from Ellery's mother asking him to check on her son, Blandethorne got a key to the unit from the landlord and opened the door.
"The owner behind me said, 'Oh, my God, are they OK?' and I said, 'I don't know'.
"I said 'Bronson!'. No response. I walked outside and called his mum straightaway and said I'd just found them and they were on the floor and I don't know what's happening.
"The owner went in and checked for a pulse and came out while I was on the phone to her."
Blandethorne told the Bulletin he and Ellery spent time together several times a week. The last time they spoke was last Wednesday when they made their plans to meet Friday.
"I got to say, 'I love you brother' and he said, 'I love you too bro'," he said.
"I'm glad I got to say that to him as the last thing."
