My theory is Dust was an experiment that had to do with memories, but went wrong and had to imprisoned in childhood. They escaped, took off the ankle bracelet, and began a new life. The government found them and killed them, trapping their spirit into an arcade machine. Once you find them, they have relief in knowing someone else knows of their existence.

[@cyberhermit4381]

The ankle bracelet is probably because he's under house arrest for assaulting the bully in the pub
