Summary
“Agent.” There it was, that stern, reprimanding tone that he really shouldn’t be using on a superior (this rule is applicable to any workplace but the Bureau). “There is a compatible guide–”
“No.” Choi cuts him off. “Bronze. There isn’t a compatible guide with us right now.”
Jaekwan’s lips purse together. “Stop being stubborn–”
“I am not,” Choi snaps, the energy in him pulsing to life with the loosened grip on his irritation. “Letting that director guide me.”
Ho Yuwon is a (fake!) guide, Choi is an esper dancing on the edge of a rampage, and between them, there’s too little like to form reason.
Ho Yuwon takes the backhand with little grace, tumbling to his back and bringing Choi down with him. Spitefully, he drops his elbow down hard into Ho Yuwon’s ribcage, savoring the wheeze that comes out.
The blood trickles, pooling into the hollows of his collarbone, dark red stark against pale skin. “Such a brute. Isn’t an esper supposed to show respect and consideration towards their guide?”
“You’ve got it wrong.” Choi wipes his blood on Ho Yuwon’s shoulder. He didn’t look too bad in red. “It’s the other way around.”
