"Sure. They might want to keep you happy just to keep you from spilling secrets they want to keep in check."

She can imagine a lot of situations where it goes over very badly.

"I would not tell a person's secrets for spite. I know that mortals value their privacy, much as I do not understand it."

Justice considers, stroking his cat as he thinks back on some of the interactions he's had when he's revealed that particular knack of his so far.

"But it would seem that the believed threat does help convince mortals to cooperate. I have found success here for the most part."

"Yeah, us mortals are funny that way. You don't value your privacy?"

"I was only marginally aware of the concept before I came to your realm. Where I come from, thoughts and one's deepest considerations are made manifest, and we all know how to read them. Privacy would be impossible, even if any of us desired it."

Which spirits and demons don't, really, unless they're up to something.

Kitty would and has traded privacy for intimacy and connection. They've always been more fundamentally important to her though she she struggled with trusting enough to do so. "What was it like when everyone could see everything? Did you feel closer to each other?"

"Spirits are not as social as mortals. Most of us do not feel the need to be close to one another."

One could make alliances with other spirits, but it was uncommon to make friends. Justice certainly doesn't remember making any.

"What it provided us with was understanding of one another, or else the knowledge that we would never truly understand. Mortals do not know how to predict the behavior of spirits and demons, but I find them predictable to the point of tedium."

"If most of you don't feel the need. What about you specifically?" It's kind of an invasive question, but if he's not used to privacy anyway, then he probably won't see it that way, right? And maybe it would help her predict this spirit's behavior to know more. Hopefully not to the point of tedium.
whatisright: (Maker save me from these mortals)

Justice hesitates at that. The question forces him to think of Anders and Riona, how their absence hurts even though it's self-inflicted. How his relationship with Anders will end.

"...I never felt the need for closeness before I came to the mortal realm."

That much is true. And it's definitely changed, but he doesn't know how much. He doesn't know how much of this ache is need and how much is something he can purge with memory.
