Korrlok Week, Day 1: Smug
Sorry this one is so short, guys, but I want to make sure that all seven Korrlok Week pieces were uploaded as a set.
Her smirk is at once infuriating and endearing. She has an arrogance about her, a certainty that she is and always has been infallible. She is so very young and naive. It would be easy to quash that conceit, crush her under the weight of superior knowledge and experience. But I could never do that. It's easy enough to play along, smile and nod until I can slyly pull the rug from under her when she's not looking. I can tease her mercilessly and she blushes and laughs along, teasing me right back. It's a game we've repeated so many times together that the steps feel like a dance. I wonder sometimes whether she's just as aware as I am and acts this way to deliberately pull me in. It doesn't matter. When we laugh together this way I don't think either of us would give it up for the world.
