One thing Coran had noticed was that Pidge never ever bit her nails while Shiro was in the room.
At first, he put it down to coincidence, but then he slowly unearthed a pattern. According to him, rapid nail-biting always started, without fail, when the black paladin left the room, and the minute he popped back in, there would be no sign of it. None whatsoever.
Hence, rapid nail-biting and the black paladin were related. Somehow. He didn’t know how, but there definitely was a connection.
He sighed as he sipped his tea. 'But why?’ he wondered, scratching at his moustache. It didn’t make any sense to him. At all.
However, it made a lot of sense to Pidge.
You see, even one disgusted look would kill her, and she knew that. She shuddered at even the thought of it. One disapproving glance from Shiro was all that it took and she didn’t have the guts to do ‘that nasty thing’ again.
Also, why else do you think she bit her nails at lightening speed when he so much as even looked the other way?
end. (for now)
