♦ Augustine's Links
They are cousins, and have been fairly close to one another. Augustine sees Rafael as a quiet and kind individual who doesn't talk much, but is capable of doing great things. He appreciates Rafael's ability to think quickly, and finds his skills as a magician very impressive. August had looked after the boy like his own little brother - he needed guidance, and Augustine is determined to help him.
They are cousins, and have been fairly close to one another. He remembers fondly of their time together, and as a child he'd always looked forward to meeting the older boy again. He'd tell Augustine his troubles, he'd show Augustine the magic tricks he'd been practicing - and in return, he'd give him advice, tell him not to worry, share laughs together... He admires how nice and supportive he is, the butler's attitude in approaching people and help, as well as the ability to remain calm and collected even under stress. He wants to learn how to be just as genuine as his cousin. To him, August is almost like an older brother, and an inspiration.
"Julian is my older brother. While he has his own flaws, and a few attitudes I do not quite approve of, I do not dislike him."
"My brother. He is truly one of the most capable individuals I have seen. Precise, organised, and incredibly patient, with etiquette that can only be described as flawless. I did not initially expect his choice of career, but it is no surprise to me that he has proved himself worthy."
