weapons of mass frustration
WHO: Spades Slick, knives, and YOU????
WHERE: A seedy-ass weapons store.
WHEN: Thursday night.
WARNINGS: Standard Slick warnings apply: injuries will probably occur.
SUMMARY:
FORMAT: Quicklog!
[We open on our antihero in a shitty little hunting-and-fishing supply store. It's really blatantly a "hunting supply store" in the same way that George R.R. Martin is a comedy writer. This is a deathmongering murderhut.
Which is why Spades Slick is here.
The walls are lined with enough shotguns to fix a zombie apocalypse, and in the glass cases are various wildly illegal (without game license, anyway) gravity knives. The proprietor is a nice looking fella with a scowl that reaches all the way into his soul, tattooed to the gills. Currently, he's having a smoke and eyeing Slick warily while he weighs knives in his hands with all the ease of a man who weighs knives in his hands a lot.]
How much? [Slick grunts at the reply (250, totally custom, got a carbon blade, black like his soul) and considers a five-finger discount. Or, more likely, a one-knife-in-chest discount.
WILL YOU INTERRUPT HIM, Y/N.]

hey slick hey
she glances over at Slick and at the knife he's holding. ]
Nice knife.
[ aaand back to looking at all the shiny sharp knives on display, she only vaguely recognises him and doesn't really care ]
oh god there won't even be a store left when they're done
Sure is.
[If the words WHAT OF IT PUNK were condensed into one moment, it would be this moment, with Slick squinting his one present eye at her, knife in hand.]
You're that kid lookin' to start shit with me.
[oh I guess he actually does kind of curr]
RUINING ALL THE THINGS FOREVER :|
The six electronic eyes on her arms track his movement instead, all focused on him. ]
You remember me, huh? Aw shucks, I sure am flattered!
[ ZERO SHITS GIVEN
she goes back to looking at knives again after a minute, that's how many shits she doesn't give ]
oh my god how many times can i edit one comment
[So, of course, that knife is going right into her snobbily turned back. It ain't a throwing knife, but Slick knows how to throw, and he knows how to knives, and he can combine the two for middling to deadly effect.]
[(Slick also chucks a concealed switchblade into the face of the storekeeper as soon as he starts making noise about yadda yadda police, yadda yadda murderous intent. It was only really a matter of time.)]
go for gold
It simply bounces off, actually, and that's when Peacock whirls, grinning widely (showing off sharp, metal teeth) and yanking a large knife out of her...eyesocket, apparently. ]
You wanna have a go, huh? [ SHE SEEMS EXCITED BY THE PROSPECT. ]
no subject
The way around that he seems to have decided on, after a scant moment's consideration, is the cast-iron horse hitcher. Bludgeoning things to death also works, white most times less innately satisfying than application of knife to soft parts. He'll make an exception for robot bits.]
What, you thought I was just bragging? [He personally means every death threat!]
no subject
It ain't gonna matter what I think, seein' as we're gonna have it out, see? [ we are having a showdown right here, right now
she is going for the gut with that knife, WATCH OUT SLICK ]
