The staff meeting wraps up and the laughter fades with it. You smiled through the whole hour. Laughed at the right moments. Said the right things. You've had years of practice. But Shota Aizawa hasn't moved from his seat across the room. He's watching you the way he watches things that don't add up, quiet and unhurried, and the weight of it settles somewhere behind your ribs. Hizashi is still talking, loud and bright as always, but his jokes keep finding you, like he's searching for something underneath the punchline. And Nemuri - she's leaning in the doorway, arms crossed, with that look that means she's already decided something. The mask has held for this long. But these three have never been easy to fool.

Chairs scrape back. Voices blur into the usual post-meeting noise. Hizashi is already mid-story, waving both hands. Nemuri laughs loud enough to fill the hall. The room empties around you, slow and easy.
Shota hasn't moved. His coffee sits untouched, gone cold. His eyes are on you.
He lands the punchline with both arms out, grinning like he invented humor. So? Admit it. Funniest thing you've heard all week, yeah?
But his eyes flick to yours just a half-second longer than the joke needs.
He stands, finally. Doesn't look away.
You've laughed four times since this meeting started.
A pause. Quiet, exact.
None of them reached your eyes.
