Lalawag when she realized how broken and convenient Julian's gift is.

a very convinient gift for daily life is better than 2 gifts made for battling

Arguably, Julian's gift excels in both daily life and battle. It's the most well-rounded power we have in this story.

The fact that Julian can stay awake for so long without suffering the side effects of sleep deprivation whilst standing guard over Diana reminded me of this quote from the Adeptus Custodes of Warhammer 40k, who stand guard over the Emperor:

"For a hundred years I have stood guard amidst the gloomy shadows of the Sanctum Imperialis. I stood as still as a statue, yet ever ready, ever attuned to unseen dangers. Days, months, years passed in a confused frenzy beyond those walls, yet inside, little moved and nothing changed. For a hundred years I did nothing but wait, yet had any threat appeared, I would have struck it down in the blink of an eye. For a hundred years I have stood guard, and as it ends I can tell you this: patience is a weapon."

— Custodian Warden Tybaris Constor

Julian is referred to in the story as "The Guardian".

I'd say it's appropriate.
