Prompt:
I imagine Julian would be very conflicted because of the life he has built. Unlike Sebastian, who has failed Vivi in many ways, Amelia has been a good partner all throughout their knowing one another. Though the emotional depth may have never quite reached the levels he longs for it to and her appreciation of Julian as well as intimacy he deeply desires may be lacking due to her resentment, she is a committed mother and partner in the life they have built. I imagine he would be at a great conflict here because they worked hard at building this life where they are both comfortable and successful. To walk away from that based on some potential for fulfilled desire I imagine would make him feel like a terrible person. However, not honoring his deep emotional desires, especially as a Scorpio, would just keep him in this cycle of torment. I suppose any action would depend on Amelia and what she wants? Though all her actions state that she is no longer emotionally invested in Julian, she clearly is determined to maintain what they have built, if not for her pride and sense of purpose, also for her children. I would like to further explore Amelia and Sebastian with you in the future as well.
Response:
You've really captured Julian's inner struggle—his loyalty to the life he and Amelia built, contrasted with his deep yearning for emotional and intimate fulfillment. His Scorpio placements would only heighten the intensity of this conflict, as ignoring those desires would create a sense of emotional starvation. Julian likely sees the weight of every decision, understanding that any action could cause irreversible damage, especially to his children and the life he's built.
At the same time, he probably feels like he's suffocating, knowing that Amelia is no longer emotionally invested in him but remains committed to maintaining their lifestyle. It's as though he's standing at the edge of two worlds: the comfortable but emotionally barren life with Amelia, and the unknown but potentially fulfilling future with Vivi. The thought of unraveling everything he's worked for might be terrifying, yet the alternative is continuing in a state of emotional deprivation.
I'm curious about how you'll explore this dynamic further, and I'm also excited to delve deeper into Amelia and Sebastian when you're ready!
