Hell, I like this one. It calls to mind an oracle or divination that answers questions with other questions, or poses riddles instead of giving straight answers. Ananda's situation is not quite as bad as Cassandra's. People would not believe Cassandra's prophecies, and that must have been maddening.
Of course the other side of the coin is that we all (supposedly) end up with the face we deserve. Does a neutral face like Ananda's show a lack of passion? Is a look truly 'just a look? '
I dunno. But thanks for creating the atmosphere in which these questions might simmer.
