Before he knew what happened with Anders, Justice would have snapped that he'd never possess a mortal and how dare anyone imply otherwise. Yet he possessed Anders, and here is the evidence before him that he has possessed others in the past, albeit with permission.

And there's that familiar scratching in the back of his head, the sense that he's being reminded of something he's forgotten. This happened.

He doesn't answer Venom immediately. Instead, he just watches as he pulls the girl in for a hug, and she cries, grabbing onto Venom's shirt to sob into it. She always cried easily as a child, though she fervently denied it. Justice doesn't remember how he knows that.

Justice crouches down beside her until they are at eye level. She peeks from Venom's shirt.

"You will be among the greatest shamans your clan has ever known, Muire." He doesn't quite know how he knows that, but he knows that it's the truth. "Mastery comes with hard work and patience. Practice, and the rest will follow."

She doesn't let go of Venom, but she does reach out to grasp Justice's hand.
