Sulky-looking

POUTY

["Think of how someone might look when they're silently upset, especially with lips pushed forward slightly. It's a word often used to describe a child's expression before a tantrum."]

"Sulky-looking" directly describes someone who’s frowning or moody, which fits "pouty" perfectly. The word itself sounds a bit playful, like the pouty face a child might make when upset. There’s no hidden wordplay here—it’s a straightforward definition where the clue and answer match in meaning.
