Nia was holding out the strawberry between her fingers towards the girl, she was giving a sweet pleased smile towards the young tribal girl. At first glance the girl didn't seem out of the ordinary but as soon as Nia had showed the girl her quirk there was an immediate turn in mood between the two. Vae gave Nia a look of disgust as she held out the berry. Did she not like strawberries? No it was something else. Nia gazed at the girl as she softly lowered her hand with the strawberry in it. Her mouth fell agape as she realized what Vae was so disgusted about. It wasn't the berries, it was Nia her quirk. Vae wiped a hand over her face as to remove tears but Nia could not see any on her face.
"A-are you alright..."
Nia dropped the berry as she reached out to Vae. Vae spoke about refusing Nia her offers and how she did not trust her enough yet. The all so sudden turn around of event definitly showed the fruity girl that she had done something wrong when she showed off her quirk. She thought it would make her happy to eat tasty fruits. A shiver went over Nia her back as goosebumps felt over arms like her heart got broken. She did not want to eat the lunch she proclaimed herself?
Nia felt tears well up as she grabbed hold of her skirt to squeeze into something. The strawberry plant at the side of the road shivered into a small black dead plant as the strawberries fell off and grew smaller in size unlike before. They were sour small strawberries, the ones you would get after a bad harvest. Vae was already trying to block her way from binding any bond closer to her.
"A-ah n-no... P-p-please... I-I d-d-did-dn't m-m-mean t-t-to s-scare y-you... p-p-please..."
Nia did not know how to fix this problem. Nia gazed at her own hand for a moment to see the strawberry having escaped. She glanced at the ground around her and to the side of the pavement to see her plant having died and her strawberries being ruined. Nia gasped from fear seeing what her quirk had done. Nia momentarily looked back up at Vae gazing in worriness.
"M-my fruit... N-no... W-wait! I-I can f-fix t-this..."
Nia dropped down to her knees as she sat closer to the strawberry plant. She was about to touch it before realizing it would just freak out Vae again. Nia gulped as she shortly shivered. Nia got herself back to her feet as she turned her away from her dead plant. She didn't want to leave it but felt like she didn't want to upset her friend over her own plants. Nia closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She was silent for a minute before sweetly smiling back at the girl again, seemingly it did seem somewhat force as the corner of her mouth twitched a little.
"N-no, it is alright, I-I'll make you something to eat like I-I promised... We don't have to talk or be together for that, we can eat in separate rooms and you can leave after."
Nia tilted her head as she kindly smiled at her with eyes closed. Whenever Vae accepted or not she would walk. It hurted so much to leave her plant behind like this but she had to bare it in order not to scare this girl. That would have been her very last intention to do.
