[ The god's promise to take care of them warms him; helps him feel like this choice was well made. ]
I don't intend to switch gods. I care about the one I chose a lot. But like I told Patience, I'd like to help all of you. And... [ Yu will pause briefly, thinking over his words. ]
Justice is important to me, [ he'll finally say, rather simply. ] And I wanted you to know just how much.
If that's the case, why don't I come see you regularly? You can tell me all about your hobbies, the things you like... [ by way of answering the first question Justice asked. ]
Sort of...there was a dog where I came from, before this, but he wasn't really mine, and I'm not sure what breed he was. And he was the only dog I'd ever met before. I just really liked him a lot.
[ ... is Justice okay? Yu will start to reach out, but pause when nothing further seems to happen. ]
... I had to find ways to occupy my time, when I was younger. Eventually, I picked up origami as a way to keep my hands busy. [ a brief pause, and: ] I haven't done it recently, but I think I could make a dog, if I had paper to use.
Everyone's lived different lives, after all. They've had different experiences, and felt different things... a bad thing for one person might be seen as a good thing, to another.
[ ... thoughtfully ]
I guess it really depends on what you're talking about.

[There's an air of startled surprise, still, in the small God's stature.]
I'll take really good care of them--but...why me? Wouldn't an offering like this be better with the god you chose before?

[Justice laughs, chipper, as they carefully cradles the glasses against their chest.]
Thank you for your support!
no subject
It's nice to meet you, Justice.
[ He'll stand straight, and gesture loosely with a hand. ]
Tell me about yourself.
no subject
[The god's voice quickly changes from excited to unsure, as if they don't know exactly what they can even say.]
Oh, and it's very nice to meet you, too. Thank you for visiting me. It makes me really happy when I get to talk to people.

no subject
Oh, I'd love that! And, um, I don't know, about my hobbies, I mean. But I like dogs!
no subject
[ The god's excitement catches at his heart. Whoever this person is... it seems they might be a bit lonely. ]
Have you had pets before? I was never allowed. Do you have a favorite breed?
no subject
[ ;( ]
no subject
I see... he was a friend.
[ look, he's besties with a fox, he gets it ]
... what do you do with your spare time, Justice?
no subject
[Justice tilts their head to the side, bringing up an arm to support it as if he's about to lose balance.]
What about you?

... I had to find ways to occupy my time, when I was younger. Eventually, I picked up origami as a way to keep my hands busy. [ a brief pause, and: ] I haven't done it recently, but I think I could make a dog, if I had paper to use.

[A bashful pause, and Justice peers toward the door.]
Will you show me, if we get some paper from the study?
no subject
You read my mind. It would be nice to have a friend I can fold origami with.
no subject
Let's go! I want to learn all about it!
no subject
You should think about the other kinds of things you want to make. Flowers, birds, cats, dogs, stars, envelopes, boxes, boats...
We can think about other hobbies you might like, too.
no subject
no subject
... oh.
Yu doesn't want to immediately assign significance to that, but boy, it's hard. The thought tugs at his heartstrings. ]
Of course. They can be as simple or complex as you like. With enough time, I'm sure you could create a whole village.
no subject
[As they reach the study, Justice takes particular care as they open the door.]
I'll make sure nothing bad happens.
no subject
Yu will stay silent as they enter the study. Mostly, he's thinking over what he wants to say, picking his words carefully. ]
Is that what you want, from this game? To stop bad things happening?
no subject
[Justice moves to the desk drawer and starts pulling out pieces of loose parchments.]
Doesn't everyone want to stop bad things from happening?
no subject
no subject
I don't understand. How could it mean something different for different people?
no subject
[ ... thoughtfully ]
I guess it really depends on what you're talking about.
