Summary
"Wait," Occtis says.
Julien stares at his wrist before looking up to lock gazes with Occtis, who sighs. "I— I thought that we could watch something and—" Occtis glares as Julien scoffs, "—and we could, you know."
Julien feels the creeping understanding come over him, as preposterous as it seems. "Occtis," he starts. "We've hardly spoken to each other. Did you think this would lead to something?"
Occtis' cheeks flush, his mouth twitches. "I was told that this kind of thing set the stage, yes."
Julien Davinos sees an opportunity when Primus Tachonis' errant son propositions him.

Summary
“He hasn't saved - you know what, never mind.” Occtis sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose. “Julien has a particular set of people he’s very protective about. I happen to fall into that category because he needs me to get back at my family. That’s it.”
“Get back at your family.” Thimble repeats flatly. “The same family he let get away right now to burn himself for you?”
Or: Thimble realizes Julien isn't as nonchalant about Occtis as he'd like to claim. Whether or not *she* is, is absolutely besides the point

Summary
“You know what? Nevermind. It’s not worth it.” Occtis starts folding himself into bed, prompting Julien to sit up, aggravated by the principle of the thing.
“Just ask me the fucking question.”
“I don’t just want to ask one, I want to—gh—do you know how a conversation works?”
“You want to get to know me?” Julien says with horror.
— On the road to the Golden Orchard, after the second-worst week of their lives, Occtis and Julien play stupid games.
