[ The funny thing is that Minji likes to think of herself as less prickly than most people. It's true sometimes, but only because Minji presses down a lot of her bad feelings and opts to act like an obnoxious asshole instead of showing that things bother her most of the time. Never let them see you sweat! Because if you show how much something hurts you then people can use that against you...

It's bad enough she let Sinjoon's comment get under her skin enough that she made a snippy remark like that without smiling. If she'd just grinned and acted like she was making fun of him then he wouldn't even know that she'd been upset at all about the comment.

Too late for that regret now, though Minji does try to recover by pursing her lips, and turning back around slowly, trying her best to look completely disinterested in him and this conversation. ]

You just admitted how unhelpful you are.

[ She walks over and reaches up to roughly (read: aggressively) pat him on the shoulder. ]

You admitted it yourself. Is there any reason to expect anything from an unhelpful person in the first place?

[ She shakes her head, exaggerating the movement. ]

I won't ever get my tasks done that way. I need reliable lackeys.
