You imply that you are something else entirely. What are you, if not human? Something or someone who can see far too deeply into one's darkest soul and darkest, I fear. I've not painted in some time.

i am a spirit of justice
your suspicions are correct
i can sense more of your heart and mind than humans can

[ Oh, Enjolras is going to love this guy. Grantaire has a cynic’s mind, however, and despite everything he’s seen in this place, he remains doubtful by nature and sheer, stubborn willpower. ]

Ah, well, perhaps you can tell me then, is justice indeed as blind as they say? Does justice stumble through life blindfolded? Perhaps justice has never truly lived at all. You are strange to me, monsieur. What is a spirit of justice, really?

[whatisright]

under normal circumstances justice looks however the observer expects it to
these are not normal circumstances
at the moment i have no blindfold nor any other visual impediment
spirits are the people who live in the fade
where you go in your dreams and where you pass through when you die
every spirit has a virtue to which they always aspire
my virtue is justice

[winecasks]

I fear that I do not dream, though I have died and been retrieved from my grave and returned to this abysmal life for some unfathomable reason. Perhaps I passed such spirits, but I cannot recall them. The only spirits I know now are those that come from a bottle—and now you as well, I suppose, if a spirit you truly are.

You do truly have my thanks, monsieur, regardless of what you may be.

[whatisright]

you likely passed them by
but you may not have recognized them for what they were
we do not always appear as human
regardless i am pleased you are happy with the gift
you are welcome

[winecasks]

What might you appear as, in the eyes of us lowly human beings?

[ He's genuinely curious now, for as little as he thinks he believes it. At least you have his attention, Justice, and that's a very difficult thing to capture. ]

[whatisright]

for the moment i appear as a human man
it is most convenient to operate in this world if my appearance fits mortal expectations
when i was initially brought to the mortal realm i was trapped in a man's corpse
mortals were not comfortable with that
neither was i

[Justice is happy to answer questions, so long as no one implies he's a demon. He understands that most mortals have no experience with spirits.]
