Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shun's finger twitched slightly at the word 'purpose'. He knew it wasn't talking about him, specifically, but the word was still a reminder of it, and what he lacked. Nodding slowly, he turned his attention to the other faceless as they addressed him next.

"Of course not," he muttered under his breath. He wasn't getting anymore answers there. That much was apparent. A part of him supposed that he should be glad he was able to get something by spotting the poster. Everything about Other Ashdown was just the opposite of straightforward. So instead, he asked something else, something that was more of a curiosity, "How did you come to be anyway? Were you once human as well?"

There was something about that answer that really unsettled Shun. Given his inner demons, to him, it sounded like these people may have once been like him. Was he looking at his potential fate? To become a faceless creature that tended to places like this theater? He wasn't entirely certain how deep the 'lost their way' went.

"Lost... how?" he asked slowly, partially dreading the response he may get.

It was one of those things where he wasn't really sure if he truly wanted to know. But... if his instincts were right, then he was going to need to find a way to save himself.

Shun's body grew tense as the hand went up to his face. His hands slowly began to curl into fists as he was wondering if he was going to need to defend himself. The invasive feeling that he was experiencing was not helping in the slightest.

Was it... judging him?

There may have been a trace of fear within his eyes as the faceless one finally gave its answer. Slowly, he nodded in understanding. It was too clear.

"I see... That is all for questions I have today."

He could come back another time. But right now... he had heard enough.

And then they were gone. Shun looked around warily, then stepped on out of the office. The business suit duo were nowhere to be found now. He took little time to leave the theater, not wishing to linger there any longer than needed.
