Chel followed in suit, albeit in a much less organized fashion than Shun.
"Well. It'd be cool f'we could find some s**t that'll help make Ashdown home fer you. Even f'it's temporary or whatever." She thought about it for a moment or two. "Y'think New York's havin' weird magic s**t up there too?"

"No. That would not help at all."
There was a number of factors as to why he didn't feel at home in Ashdown. It was a fairly small town, especially when compared to a city such as New York. While he had gotten a little more used to it, the fact that the townsfolk were super friendly still put him off a little bit. It was hard for him to not feel like they had some ulterior motive to act that way towards complete strangers.
"Not really anything that can be done. Just the nature of the two places are completely different."
Shun kept his grilling efficiently. Once he had a decent portion cooked up, he went ahead and began to actually eat.

"Mm. You think yer gonna move back there someday then?" It would be a bit sad to see Shun go ... but she wouldn't make him stay either. She more than anyone knew what it felt like to be trapped in a place with no direction.
She poke her meat to see if it was ready and then pulled one bit off the grill. At least the food was good.

"Not really anything left for me there," he shrugged, "And my job is here."
Shun kept his gaze upon his food as he ate, wanting to focus more on that than the topic at hand.

Chel opened her mouth, then closed it again. Maybe she was pushing too much. Shun offered information at his own rate. She could pick up vibes when he was exhausting the topic.
She chewed for a moment to buy them both time.
"Well m'glad yer here. Least that's somethin'."

Another shrug came from him as he just ate his food. Shun drank his tea and ate his fill. Eventually, once he was satisfied there, he let out a breath and looked around idly, just resting for a little while now. It may have looked like there was a few things going on through his head.

Chel was content to let him have his silence. At least it wasn't arguing or any number of worse things.
She was a little bit slower eater than Shun and she was still eating the tail end by the time she finally spoke up again. "You seem kinda out of it t'day. Somethin' come up at work or...?" It was weird for Shun, the always-hyper-focused guy.

Shun lifted his head as Chel presented him with another question. He blinked for a moment, then just lowly grunted.
"It is nothing important," he dismissed.

"Shuuun." She looked at him somewhat eagerly.

"What?" he asked, staring at her.
"It really is of no importance. Nothing relevant, anyway."

"Maybe not t'you but now that yer bein' all vague it's muy importanto.." Chel picked up her last little piece of fish and popped it in her mouth. "Did somethin' big happen?"

"No. Nothing happened at all. Just introspection. Do not worry about it. It has nothing to do with you," he muttered.

"The more you deny it the more y'make me wanna know." She pointed her now empty chopsticks at him. "You got too many secrets."

Shun let out a sigh, "They are secrets for a reason. You pressing me more is not going to make me loosen up on them."
Not unless he chose to share them, anyway. But this was not the case right now. It wasn't something he wanted to get into right now.

Chel gave her own mirroring sigh. "I know, I know." Shun was a tough nut to crack, especially in the way that Chel usually got people to talk.
"Yer just fun t'figure out. I wanna know everythin'."
