I can’t decide if it’s better for Justice to hate swears, or to initially use them like any other word because he doesn’t know they’re bad, like a little kid picking up all the words.
I imagine he had a period of being a word sponge, but on finding out words are swears he’s mortified and never says them again.
Some people keep teaching him swears. Oghren and Anders have a rare point of commonality in doing this. Others try to stop this by telling him that’s a swear immediately. Velanna’s one of them. Nathaniel also tries to stop it, but doesn’t want to admit he sometimes finds it funny. Not sure if Sigrun is on team swear or team ‘Noooo he’s baby you’re corrupting himmm’
Then after he drops one in front of some visiting noble the seneschal gives him a list of words he cannot say, and the fun is over
Then begins the campaign of convincing him that certain regular words are swears. Someone says “hey where are the plates” and Justice is like *GASP!* “You can’t say that!”
Velanna once again stops this. “Those knuckleheads are messing with you again. If they tell you a word is bad, you come to me and I’ll give you the actual answer.”
“I will, Velanna. You have never led me astray.”
He becomes grumpy at everyone except Velanna and they all apologise to him and promise to stop. Oghren tries again after a week and everyone’s “Hey, how could you! We promised him!” Oghren stops only because Justice may never speak to him again if he continues.
Also, giving Justice the Grievous Insult ability in Awakening 🤣
Him never swearing ever except in battle specifically, and when he does being so vulgar it enrages the goddamn darkspawn
The crew saying “woah, Justice dropped some major curse bombs today. I almost feel bad for the spawn.” And Oghren’s reaction is “While I was away? Come on! I always miss the best parts!”
Someone swearing at base afterwards, Justice going “hey, language” and them saying “you’re one to talk”
