I'm not a fan of sci-fi and hardly watch any of the mainstream stuff that is mentioned here so I'm very rusty on future time paradoxes. I'm currently rewatching the series and will try to base Mikuru and her motivations as closely as I can on the character in the series.<br/><br/>I modified her thoughts in one post as you may have seen since its shown to us in Ep.2 of series 1 that Mikuru knows who and what Yuki is the moment she joins the club (in fact Yuki's presence in the clubroom is what induces her to stay despite Haruhi's abuses of her body... I think at that early point she is about to run out for good, then notices Yuki and makes the connection and agrees to stay.)<br/><br/>So Mikuru knows who and what Yuki is because her future bosses told her she would meet such a person. Given that, it's obvious she will also know what Itsuki's function is and his powers. By the presence of these two she then realises who Haruhi is and following that logic chain she realises also what Kyon's purpose here is - to make Haruhi happy.<br/><br/>While it's obvious Kyon fancies Mikuru in the series I think it is also reasonably clear that Mikuru reciprocates those feelings to a degree, however (and this is for Aaleril) Mikuru also knows how vital it is that Kyon serves his purpose in pleasing Haruhi and so she always shies away from his advances and never allows him close.<br/><br/>Please note I have no intention of breaking that canon unless GT has very different plans for the game's definition of 'keeping Haruhi happy'. In the TV show it was heterosexual love that she sought (I think) and love specifically from the person of Kyon (for reasons we don't know) - think about the hairstyle changing actions in Ep.2 and the wearing of the ponytail the day after her 'dream'. Its clear she likes Kyon despite what she says and how she behaves to the contrary.<br/><br/>How GT and Risa want to develop her character I do not know but its not something Mikuru would ever jeopardise without direct orders from her bosses that her actions should change in order to prevent chaos.<br/><br/>Right now Mikuru is just having a bit of teen girl fun, nothing more, so Itsuki has no need to panic. See? She's actually not as easy to read as you thought :D<br/><br/>This I hope sums up why I think Itsuki's telepathic messages are not necessary. As I see it he can talk to Mikuru normally if he has concerns.<br/><br/>I now need to go read up on sci-fi time travel paradoxes.<br/><br/>EDIT: How's that? I posted accepting Itsuki can send messages but they don't always get through. It makes his power still useable but less god-mode-y. I'm also open to PMs or notes here from anyone with regard to this character. If something I'm doing isn't clear, just ask and OOC I'll try to explain without giving too much away.
