Summary
"You'd best try your experiments on me," Julien says acidly. He's rewarded with a sharp inhale from the boy, one which he knows full well Occtis does not actually need. "I'll be down in the cellars tonight, if you insist on continuing your scientific work. If anyone is equipped to take your magic in stride, it is I. Just leave those poor flowers be."
He's certainly suffered enough wounds at the hands of the Tachonis already. Better the boy play with fire under his eye, rather than behind his back. Better that Julien judge Occtis Tachonis's new abilities up front, so that he can best defeat them, should the need arise.
And besides - he's a wizard, for Shapers' sake. A low-level, books-based, necromantic wizard. Julien can handle him just fine.
Occtis has some magical experiments to try.
Julien, as it turns out, might just be the perfect test subject.Series

Summary
Vaelus certainly doesn't trust her. That much is clear. She keeps staring coolly at Aranessa - that blank, calm, appraising gaze that only ever comes from a prospective enemy. She does not bother to hide her dislike, so Aranessa shows her the bare minimum of courtly politeness, and nothing more. Nothing else will be asked for, and nothing else is owed. Just because they're traveling together doesn't mean they have to like one another. Just because they're traveling together doesn't mean they have to click.
Thaisha does not seem to share these reservations. Thaisha, for some incomprehensible reason - perhaps something related to the paladin's strong thighs and smug demeanour and terrifying prowess with a whip - has decided to sleep with the nun. Not once, not twice, but thrice, at least as far as Aranessa knows. Two times could be a mistake, but three times puts the whole business pretty firmly into fling territory, for sure.
Gods, what the hell is she doing?
Aranessa can't stop thinking about her very capable, very attractive traveling companions.
Surely if she just ignores the problem, she'll get over it.Series
