E
I prefer E over C cuz aloof means lacking interest, seems far apart. In other words, he’s not focused on what he’s doing.

I think ans is c coz consummate is one who has reached zenieth of skill
n playful means doing things as a part of fun or timepass.So both seem to be opposites.

Also aloof cannot be the ans coz its not necessary that a person remaining aloof i.e distant may not be skillful.

no it shud be aloof, becoz consummate means perfect and complete in every respect while aloof means remote in manner. To me it seems to be a better choice.

I think it’s aloof. being aloof implies you are not being a professional. One can be playful and a professional…
