Was looking for a reference in White Knight and ran across a conversation between Harry and Thomas stating that Justine had moved in close to Lara the year before.  That would be during Proven Guilty.

It began though after the near fatal feeding in Blood Rites.  Here is a thought, yes, supposedly Thomas was able to stop himself before he actually killed her, because he'd rather die and kill the woman he loved.  Interesting isn't it at that point in time, the love wasn't true because if it were wouldn't he have been burned?  Also, what if Justine survived the feeding, not because Thomas stopped but because she was already possessed by Nemesis?

morriswalters:
I have no idea.  Maybe?

Maeve, and Titania Aurora didn't appear overpowered.  They thought they were doing what was right.  Catsith appeared overpowered, as did Justine.  I don't know why some appear to be totally controlled while others are more manipulated rather than brute forced.

Titania? 

I think Nemesis probably has different settings for its hosts.  Active vs passive possession, and possibly others.  Basically varying degrees to which Nemesis has to focus its attention to maintain control.  It used Maeve's jealousy to get her on its side, so it didn't need to exert much if any power there.  Comparatively, Lea and Cat Sith fought against it, and Nemesis had to take a more active role.
