[A shine Julian lacks? Why is he hung up on that? Guy has been an awkward half-crush in the past and even now is someone he really can't quite rule out despite Julian not considering him "dating material." The only reason for that designation is Guy's own supposed policy of "casual sex only." Julian isn't exactly against casual sex, but he's not keen on being simply another notch on someone's bed post.]

I suppose that makes as much sense as anything.
