[Does Justice sound more and more desperate and relieved every time he sees Connor? Hard to say, but he does zoom in to give him a hug this time. Sorry, Connor.]
He's grunting in surprise at the sudden hug, blinking down at Justice as soon as he registers what happened. After a moment, he just kind of... pats his head?? How does one deal with children, the continuous struggle...]
Everything's been okay. I'm aware Luna intended to deactivate me last week. If anything happens this week— [...] I know how to defend myself. I'll be prepared.
[Well. He was prepared for everything but his best friend getting shanked like, several hours after this. But it's fine.]
I will. [Well, then.] I'll remain vigilant, Justice. I promise.
[Someone totally wants to shank him, huh. He makes an effort to keep his tone gentle, trying to be comforting even as he's absorbing that information.]

... Justice? Is everything alright?
[This sure is A Greeting.]

[Still, Justice holds onto him even tighter.]
I just got a little worried about you, I guess. And...I missed you. I'm happiest when I get to talk to you.

[With no gods up for death and all. Though, uh. Flash cut to Zoe and Ray dying--]
I'm sorry. Should I have reached out to you earlier in the week?
no subject
[He shakes his head against Connor's middle.]
Not, not that I thought you'd leave, I'm just...
[...]
No, it's okay. I'm sorry.
no subject
[He came here for rule #2 reasons, but...]
You've allowed me to speak freely before. Please, I'd like to know what's on your mind.

I thought somebody was going to go after you, this week. It was just a feeling, that's all. But...everything's been okay, right?
no subject
[Well. He was prepared for everything but his best friend getting shanked like, several hours after this. But it's fine.]
no subject
[Justice moves from one foot to another.]
Just be careful, anyway. I know you don't need me to tell you that, but still. If I lost you, I-I don't know what I'd do.
no subject
... Is there someone besides Luna who wants to deactivate me?

[Justice taps his fingertips together anxiously.]

Is there anything I can do to ease your worries?
