Nick continued to maintain a look on his face as confused and shocked as if Miku had begun speaking in tongues. Really, he could have gone into acting if he were not so set on becoming a hero, at least in his own opinion.
“What’re you insulting me for?” he cried. “I’m as horrified by that as you are!” Her insistence that he leave her meant nothing to him. He was not leaving until he was certain all suspicion of him had been removed. That, and he wanted to know how she knew, so he could deal with whatever incompetent fool had jeopardised him like this. He did not show it, but on the inside alarm bells screamed at how perilously close he was now to being found out.
“Seriously, who was this person?” he went on. “And why would you suspect me?” It finally hit him: he had asked her to show off her Quirk to him. Damn it, he had been too bold, too brazen, and now it was biting him in the arse as hard as it possibly could. “What, you think ‘cause I asked to see your Quirk that makes me guilty?” He played up the ‘hurt’ on his face with all his effort. “I was just curious about Class 1-B – and I didn’t want you to think I was angry at you for almost falling on me. I was angry at my own class. So I just thought we could introduce our Quirks to each other.”

It wasnt just because he wanted to see her Quirk, it was everything. The way he behaved before, like a cold hearted and monotone machine at the cafeteria table. And he wasnt interested in asking what her friggin name was. The first thing you ask someone was their name, right? And then you ask their Quirk, class and interests? What also matched up was just the coincidence of a timeline. This happened before she got to show off her Quirk to anyone and before she even mentioned her Quirk to other people like Sean or Nemuri. There wasnt concrete proof, but what made Miku suspect was the timeline of how little people she interacted with and just Nicks behaviour.
Miku went with the route of a criminal profiler, a criminologist who studies a criminal's behavior for clues to psychology to aid in capturing them. Since she had no proof, she went with psychology. Nick was just the closest guy to match what she was looking for. But sadly, without evidence or the capability to fight and beat the truth out of it and not to mention the emotional storm thats brewing inside of her, she just didnt know what to do and what to believe, she just wanted Nick gone
"Just go away...If I tell you to that I believe you're innocent, will you go away" she said not bothering to answer his question, because in truth she didnt know. It was just some shifty woman who claimed to be her dead mother
The more she listened to him, the worse she felt, what if he was innocent? Thats what was going on in her mind. On and on she thought if he was innocent. She then layed on her bed and rested her head on the pillow "Please...just go away...Im tired" she said weakly. She felt so bad,she couldnt even sit anymore

Nick wanted to leave about as much as he wanted an arm cut off. Had he convinced her? It seemed maybe so, but he honestly could not tell. She also had not even attempted to tell him who it was that had started this mess in the first place by tracking her down.
He wanted to grab her and shake her and demand she tell him. He wanted to find this person and beat seven shades of hell out of them, because how dare they. How dare they come this close to ruining his one chance at greatness. Yuuei frustrated him to an absurd degree, but he needed it. He was smart enough to know that. How could the Gifted Underground let information about him slip so easily? How could they botch his chance, when he was trying to do his best for them? He and his mother were going to have a long talk after this, that much he knew.
He imagined himself shaking her and beating seven shades of hell out of the traitor, but in reality he held back as he realised that staying longer and probing her more would only make him look more suspicious to her. As much as he wanted to stay, it was best he did not. Her state was clearly not improving from having him there.
He hung his head. “Fine. I’ll leave you be. Take care of yourself.”
With that, he turned and left her, closing her door. He cared not for any of the odd looks he got on the way out of the girls dorms, his mind too full of thoughts of the Gifted Underground.
He needed to contact them right away, and get hold of a cheap, disposable phone from a backstreet market to do so. They were going to have words.

Ooh there is trouble brewing on the horizon~
Miku: +20 XP Nick: +18 XP
This was an interesting read. Miku's suspicions are entirely justified, but it's nice to see that in-character she has too many doubts and second-guesses to blindly suspect Nick 100%. Meanwhile Nick gets the fear of his cover being blown as well as a chance to test out some acting skills. I know there will be more fun for these two in the future, and it's off to a great start!
On the technical side of things, Miku only had one post slip under the 200 word count! That's great! I hope you keep up the good work! Nick also did an excellent job keeping his character motivations and drives front and center, which is important for somebody like him. That said he should probably face a little consequence for going into the girl's dorms. PERVERT.
See you two in the future, fufufu~ 🐾 Keiran 🐾
