[ It's ok, Xenk wouldn't judge you even if you did just stand and watch. He'd probably be worried that you're injured or something if that happened though, because he just assumes everyone tries to help when they see people in need.
That's not what happens, though. Xenk remains very much in the fray, shooting a triumphant grin towards Astarion as he raises his sword and slices at the slug on his left, impaling it at the same time as he slots the dagger back into its inlay. He is unfortunately not doing as much damage as he could, without his Divine Smite, but this one should be on its last legs.
The other slug takes the moment to retaliate against him, screeching and striking at his hand with an acidic attack. Despite his attempt to dodge, the creature's otherwise cute antennae manage to graze his wrist. Xenk for his part does not react to the damage. He really should have worn his gauntlets, but oh well. What's done is done, and it will take much more than that to make him falter. ]
