[The god that greets Zoe inside of the lab is, well, small. Justice stands in a hesitant stance, hands balled up beneath their masked chin, and their voice small and shy.]
So...so I thought I had amnesia. It's a really complicated situation. I didn't have any memories, and I only knew things like how old I am and my name. But then, right before I became a god, I found out that someone created me, and activated me with pre-programmed information.
WEEK 1 (SUNDAY)
Thank you for, um, coming to see me. Hi!
no subject
[And as such, she offers a smile, a touch amused at the sight of this god.]
no subject
[Justice looks sheepishly around the room.]
How are you feeling? I know yesterday was really stressful and scary for a lot of people.
no subject
[She sighs then, though, the smile on her face fading.]
I'll be alright. I just... want to do whatever I can to make sure nothing like this happens again.
no subject
[And then people started dying, like, immediately.]
no subject
[A beat.]
It's fine if you can't tell me, but can I ask how old you are?
no subject
[But Justice still hesitates, seeming self-conscious.]
Technically you could say that I'm ten years old.
no subject
What do you mean by technically?
no subject
[Justice looks down at their feet.]
It's not that I can't say it, but...I don't want anyone to dislike me.
no subject
Why would anyone dislike you for how old you are? I promise I'm not going to tell you to get off my lawn.
no subject
[Justice doesn't really get the figure of speech but can generally grasp the concept so, this is fine.]
But if I tell you, can you keep it a secret? Please? I...I really haven't told anyone.
no subject
Fingers crossed. This stays between us, I won't even mention to any of the other gods.
no subject
Okay...so...right before I became a god, I found out that I'd only actually been alive for one day.
no subject
...I feel like you need to elaborate a little before I know how to react to that.
no subject
[Which means, of course:]
I was never human.
no subject
[It's soft and surprised, but she continues on.]
That must've sucked. I'm sorry.
no subject
[Justice's mask is tilted firmly downward, unwilling to look up and meet her gaze.]
I'm afraid that if anyone sees what I look like, they'll think I'm just a freak.
no subject
...I know you can't take it off, so I won't ask you to, but I bet you don't look like a freak.
no subject
[Finally, Justice looks back up at Zoe again.]
Kind of like I have friends! Real friends.
no subject
I'd like that, too.
no subject
[He sounds so incredibly excited!!!]
no subject
Yeah. I bet a lot of us here would, if more people came to meet you.
no subject
[Please come talk to this lonely child???]
no subject
no subject
[Pretty obviously.]
