"You sound shocked." It's a terrible joke, considering everything happening right now. Garak knows as well as Julian that he hadn't known he was going to shoot until he actually did. It was a split second decision.

Julian also takes out an energy bar from his bag--bland, but calorie and nutrient dense, perfect for a situation like this--and hands it to Garak.

"I had zero intentions of killing you. I'm a physician. If I wanted to kill you, you would be dead right now." His expression is grave. He'd very purposely chosen to shoot where he did.

Gingerly but efficiently, Julian works to wrap the other leg and get pressure on the wound. Once he's done, he undoes both tourniquets and sits back on his heels to monitor his patient. His friend. His friend that he shot without hesitation for the greater good.
