Fellow and Trust NPC interaction

I don't know if this is a bug or what but my fellow never heals the trust npcs or vice versa. Joachim's bard spells don't work on him either. I asked my linkshell and a buddy also says that his geomancer spells aren't working on the trust npcs either. Even if neither one is a bug I would like this remedied, it's heartbreaking to watch mah fella die and I can't do anything because I'm not a healer. :(

As it stands, that's how it works. PUP Automatons won't heal them, I think that SMN can use Wards, but I'm not sure it wasn't because I was in a Rieve
