For Anders
The fire was something else again. He'd been able to dispel it before it caught anything else in his lab, but the accompanying fear meant it had taken long enough he had a few serious burns (and his robes were in sorry shape). After gingerly changing clothes, he's made his way to the infirmary; his healing skills are moderate at best, and he knows that burns are nothing to take risks with.
He's masking how much pain he's in, trying not to draw attention on the walk over, but it's taking some effort.

For Myr
That said, Myr has a mind for research, and given that it's been confirmed the problem is not confined to mages who'd been at Kinloch Hold, Julius is ready to admit he could use some help. Given that remotely severing the connection between a mage and their phylactery is, if not impossible, something that no one would write about, Julius' best hope is a method for finding the culprit. But he's also willing to admit that perhaps he's overlooking something. He's still tired, and not at his best.
(And, perhaps less pressingly, Julius wouldn't mind seeing someone he considers a friend these days, though that wouldn't seem enough of a reason on its own.)

For Adalia
He's sitting quietly at a table, copying some text, when suddenly he's thrown backward, knocking the chair over. He comes to what sounds like a rough stop against a nearby shelf. (Luckily the shelf is sturdy enough not to budge at a rather tall mage being thrown into it without warning, though he does displace a book or two.) "Maker take it," Julius swears, in a voice that is almost certainly too loud for a library.

For Fern
It's been a few days since he was hit by a spell, and he can't help the feeling that he's overdue. He hates that he's even so resigned to it, but an effective method to block the effect didn't seem to be forthcoming.
All in all, his expression doesn't match "relaxed walk in the garden." He's more grimly walking in the sunshine as if to defiantly tell the universe I'm relaxing now, just look at how hard I can relax.

For Petrana
But eventually, his desire to assure himself she was recovering wins out over these potential objections. She was a woman who knew her own mind; if she wished to politely and summarily dismiss him, he had no doubts she was more than capable of doing just that.
He thinks about coming up with some sort of alternate pretext, but decides against it. Instead, he's simply approaching with the honest motive of seeing how she is, and leaving the length of his visit up to her.
