Sandwiches are yet another thing Julien has not heard of, but he supposes that he will learn very shortly. The prospect of food is very appealing right now however mysterious.

"I have eaten little. The aftermath of moving at such short notice... I am sure that you understand."

John indicated earlier that the full meaning would not be missed.

Julien takes the cue and strides inside the cafe, looking around with interest. He picks the conversation back up after a short moment.

"Yours is a noble profession. There is no greater cause than mercy," even though his reserve, his belief in that sentiment is clear.

Still, it does not prevent the hint of dry humour in his following words -- Julien is a perceptive man well-practiced in reading others as part of his own profession, and John's enthusiasm does not quite ring true. "Though I imagine tending the academy to be somewhat more tedious than caring for a wider community."
