The Charm of a Poet ~
Shaun scratched his head and sighed, sinking his chin into his scarf slightly so no one could correctly identify the disappointment and confusion on his face. The Infinite Trap was a significant bundle of energy, that was for sure. Someone as shy as Shaun never had a hope of keeping up with him.
Turning back, book still in hand, he began to make his way back to his room. It didn't take long for him to reach door. The pair barely made it twenty feet down the corridor before Caora had bolted. Gripping the handle and turning it, he took a step inside, but took a second to listen in as static erupted from the speakers lining the corridor. Once it died down, the voice of the aforementioned Caora resonated around the hospital. Glancing down, a slight smirk creased his hidden lips at the way he had utterly neglected to bring along with him the very book he intended to give to the poet.
As the transmission ended, he finally went to enter his room, but was promptly stopped in his tracks by the very man Caora had wished to see. Daimyon Londe, Infinite Poet. Shaun had never been very good at poetry. He had tried, but creating meaningful stories and strong rhymes had always managed to escape him. Though, knowing his own Infinite talent, Daimyon likely felt the same way about coding.
“Shaun! I don't mean to interrupt, but do you know by any chance where Caora went? It appears that he wants to see me...”He remembered his name? He wasn't entirely expecting that, since they had never formally met. Stepping out, he closed the door behind him.
"Y-you aren't interrupting anything. Caora went..." he took a second to point down the hallway; back towards the elevators and break room,
"Th-that way. He wanted to give you this, but... Y-yeah..." holding up the book, he took a step towards him and held it out.
"I-I suppose I'm meant to k-kill you now, h-huh." Shaun joked, letting him take the book if he did so,
"U-um... Is there anything we should know? C-Caora and I... W-we can go and get him, and, like... R-regroup with the others, or..." he trailed off, not really sure where he was going with that train of thought. All of the other Infinites seemed pretty clever, so chances were they had something planned. He didn't really want to be left out if at all possible, and he wouldn't have wanted Caora to be the only one who wasn't able to come with them.
