julien, gesturing at occtis (matt explicitly says "i gesture towards occtis"): "tend to your exhausted charge, please"
no one does, and julien looks so... distraught
do we think it kills julien just a little bit that the main thing he can't do for occtis right now is heal him? do we think julien would have healed occtis outside of the tachonis manor when he had his pseudo heart attack if he could have? julien can't get healing through his class features - do we want to bet he picks up a medicine kit proficiency so he can tend to occtis?
god and how much did it hurt occtis that the only person who had his back, who cared about him, truly, in that moment, was julien? no one listened when occtis told them to stop touching him (he didn't use those exact words, sure, but the tone made it clear), no one healed him even though one of the people touching him was a paladin who definitely could have - a paladin who had been in charge of holding onto the thing that, for all they knew, was keeping him alive. a paladin who had been his friend and maybe isn't anymore
julien may not always know the right thing to say to occtis, but he always knows the right thing to do. and never once did occtis complain about julien touching him
