Hasibe is much more cognizant of any emotional attachment--but she knows what she feels, and she doesn't need it affirmed. Having an emotional IQ of her calibre doesn't make her invulnerable, of course, but there are certain validations that seldom strike her as necessary. This can look like a lack of weakness, and sometimes she does in fact play it that way, but it's something else, truth be told.

"All men are. Have you ever known me to have a lack of things to do?" Her eyebrows raise, her tone shifting to something playfully meandering. "Let's see, I can break things just to make you fix 'em, drag you along when I go shopping, employ your expertise in my exciting adventures in espionage..."

Hasi trails off with a tiny shrug. See? So much!
