the way olruggio is a beacon of safety to the kids and he takes that very role very seriously.
richeh, who struggles to trust all adults for good reasons, runs to him for help.
and he makes sure to praise her decision. (i love richeh's reaction here.) olruggio helped save qifrey and alaira like she needed him to.
he also lies to the knights moralis to keep euini safe even though he's a watchful eye. in doing so, he doesn't betray richeh's trust.
agott reaches for his hand when she's afraid. tetia grabs onto his cloak for comfort when she's nervous.
the most important thing to him is that the kids trust him and qifrey and that they be the kind of adults the kids want to confide in. i think he remembers being a kid who didn't trust the adults around him.
he passes judgements when he sees other adults not keeping kids safe.
he panics when the kids make keeping them safe difficult for him lmao.
and he'll push past his revulsion at seeing a living thing burn if it's means keeping his kids safe.
