#others apprentice

  Delphi adores Julian. They love him to bits. Delphi loves how caring he is, how much attention he pays them. Delphi is a stubborn one, they’ll never admit if they’re feeling sick, hurt, emotionally or physically bad. But Julian notices, and makes them take care of themself. Delphi pretends to protest, but they adore it.

  Julian adores how strong they are, physically and mentally. Delphi can scoop him up like he weighs nothings, and they definitely enjoy peacocking for him. Oh? They need wood for the fire? Delphi will bring Julian out back so he can watch help them chop wood.

  Delphi usually hates feeling vulnerable. They don’t hate it around Julian. They feel safe. For once they can stop worrying about their burning need to be the best, to be well liked, to be so proud. They can just be a sappy dork.

  Julian is riddled with stress, but something about how carefree Delphi is soothes him. Something about the way that they assure him everything will be alright, with nothing but confidence and a big toothy grin.

  Both have their flaws, sure. Delphi has a habit of being overprotective, and sometimes a bit jealous. When they see others eyeing Julian, they have a tendency to act rather foolish. Julian is, of course, a ball of worries, especially worried about hurting Delphi. But in a strange way, each loves the other's flaws. Delphi’s overprotectiveness makes him feel wanted, Julian’s worries make them feel cared for.

  Delphi does the cooking but they’re like. Bad at cooking in a good way. Like they will make something that looks like straight up garbage casserole but you take a bite and it’s like that scene from ratatouille.
