"Justice." It's coming to him, slowly, now that he's said the word abusive out loud. "He controls Anders. He uses Anders' most vulnerable moments as an excuse to take lives as he pleases. He has him convinced that it must be Anders who gives everything, that Anders is unimportant, and only their shared cause--Justice's cause, which Anders had no interest in before they met, and I can testify to that--is worthy of consideration. He denies him food, sleep, company, friendship, love, because Justice does not need them. And when he does something terrible, it is Anders who pays the price. Only Anders will ever take the blame. Justice hurts him. I could see it clear as bruises when I came to Skyhold, the gauntness, his disheveled state. Did you know Anders is quite vain?

"Then I turned up and made him eat, and Justice does not think Anders needs to eat more than will keep him alive. How can I appease him there? I won't stop giving Anders food. And yet that is the very thing Justice takes issue with--that I am threatening his control."
