[...Alright, there's really no other way to interpret what's going on, is there? Justice honestly has no idea how to react, so words, usually so measured and enunciated, stumble out of his mouth.]
No one else is going to fall in love with me. [...He thinks. He thinks? Well, he thought that no one would fall in love with him, period, so maybe he shouldn't be so sure of himself.]
Why? Since when?
[Justice has craved love every since he felt its ghost on Kristoff's body, but he'd convinced himself that he'd never have it and never could. What mortal would love a spirit, after all? But now Anders is telling him he has it, the one thing he's wanted most besides his virtue, and he has no idea what to do with it.
But what he does know is that Anders is unhappy, and Justice can't abide that. Justice keeps rubbing Anders' arms, not necessarily because it's helping Anders feel better, but because Justice wants him to know that he wants Anders to feel better. Sometimes, knowing that someone else wants to help you be well is enough to make you a little well, at least, if not all the way well.]
