Never in Min-Gi’s life has he ever once had to worry about his status with Ryan. He’s wanted that status to be more, sure, and they’ve had other friends, but he’s never worried about where they stood. It was always him and Ryan against the world.
This isn’t the case anymore. For better or worse.
And he knows he shouldn’t be mad or feel hurt that Ryan made friends here. He’s been in this city for six entire months, of course he would make friends and it’s natural that he would like one of them best. Min gets it, he does, but man it stings like peroxide in a wound and Ryan doesn’t even seem to notice this is a thing?
Maybe it is best if he spends some time with Wu. At least that way he can suss him out a little more without all the weirdo mind reading stuff from those traitorous buns.
They did taste so good, though…
No! No, focus. Be cool. If he’s a dweeb to Wu then he doesn’t stand a chance, here.]
Not really!! Not here. He's been helping me with the Raccoon Room. He does the books and tends the bar.
[ But, maybe he wants to. Filing that away for later to have a little chat with Detective Mako ]
He was a detective back home before he was my bodyguard!
[ There's also some possessiveness over Mako at play here. Not that he doesn't want them to be friends, but Mako is his, first and foremost. And Min-Gi knows they're getting married, but even so. ]
[Okay well 2 things here, bar tending seems like a poor use of detective skills but whatever makes Mako happy and Min-Gi knows a thing or two about doing what you feel you're supposed to, even if it isn't your life's passion. Next is Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh buuuuuh?]
I did need one. I don't need one now!!! Well some people might say I do.
There was this whole thing back home with a coup and a group of anarchists and a usurping dictator, and I needed Mako to keep me safe! I was supposed to take the throne and it was a whole deal.
[ He could have said this much of succinctly, but look, Min-Gi, he's important! He was a king! That's why he's sooo much better for Mako and Ryan, obviously. ]

Does Mako work on a lot of cases?

Why do you need a bodyguard?

Well and you know I was going to give it up anyway.
It's a whole thing, I'll tell you the story sometime!
[ Because, even if he is bragging, it feels wrong not to tell the whole thing ]

Min needs a moment to sit with this information. A king. A king. He doesn't think to question it, that would be such a weird thing to lie about.
Man, what a flex.
Ryan's best friend is a totally open, creative, engaging, psychic, passionate venue owner with a husband and he's a king.
Who the hell is Min-Gi kidding. Of course Ryan would be this guy's best friend.]
Yeah. I'd like to hear it. That sounds like a story and a half.

[ Now it's shopping and story time! Buckle up, Min. ]
