Flipping the assassin switch

Ethari really does make Runaan soft and happy. The assassin approaches the ritual pool with his game face on.

Runaan takes one look at Ethari’s smile

and he has to smile back, even though he has this big serious ritual to perform in a second.

And, just in case you’ve been living under a rock for the past month, then they kiss. 

hhhgh still gets me every time, every single time, no way was I gonna leave that out

When Runaan turns away to lead the ritual with his assassins, he’s still grinning like a lovestruck idiot. Because he is one. Adorkable.

But this is how fast he can switch from soft to hard.

He just blinks.

And then he’s back in Assassin Mode again.

Some dark questions - 1 : A mission is complete (target down), but one of your assassins got captured. Would you lead a rescure mission? (notice: humans are prepared now, no full moon) Or would you abandon your comrade, to not endager the others as well? (would your decision change, if the captured elf would be Rayla)

You came to play today, didn’t you? Looks like I’ll need Assassin Mode for these.

*focuses*

I’d make the rescue if I had a reasonable chance of success with minimal risk. Just because we can’t turn invisible doesn’t mean we’d suddenly be loud and stompy. We’re still Moonshadows. But if there were too many locked doors, walls, and/or guards between us and our comrade, then I’d have to protect the majority of my team and take them home safely. We all know the risks when we sign up.

Rayla, though...

*nudges my tongue against a tooth thoughtfully*

I’d go get her alone. And I’d quietly kill anyone who got in my way. That’s a whole different mission. I’d be a dad, not an assassin, and there are very few rules I’d hold to in that situation.

There’s a solid chance my team would volunteer to come with me if I did that, though. I’d try to talk them out of it--I’m not interested in exchanging lives. But if they truly insisted, I’d be glad of their help.

When I see an intimidatingly large spider across the room

[ask-runaan-anything]

What if you were on an assassin mission, and upon further inspection, the human who just saved your life and is now seriously wounded, turned out to be your target?

They’d be a lot easier to dispatch. They’re my target for a reason. One tactical error on their part won’t change that. 

what did you expect me to say this is my duty, mission first

[ask-runaan-anything]

I don't think you can watch it today since it's your day off, but I just finished watching the first episode of Kimetsu no Yaiba and now I have All the Feels. - Dove

*checks the position of the Moon* Actually, my Day Off just ended. I’ll add this title to my list. 

*retrieves my bowblade from its mount and settles it across one shoulder* Ahh. There we go. Assassin Mode engaged.
