he walks fast; he dreads slow walkers, unease prickling at him from the seconds lost when taking too long to lift your foot off the ground. the sound of his steps echoes through the large corridor, followed in a similar rhythm by his roommate and current partner in crime - quite literally so - as the two silently made their way towards ace’s private room. no words were currently needed, nor could they possibly be - clear instructions had been given to not utter a syllable on the happening where anyone could hear for even the walls have ears sometimes and staying silent as death itself has always been one of kyungsoo’s very own talents.
he goes ahead and pushes open the door to the club’s room, hardly waiting for yoongi to come along as he moves towards the centre of the space, disposing on his jacket in the mean time. these were the advantages of all-black clothing: stains are hardly noticeable, much more discreet than crimson red on pure white.
that doesn’t make it any more comfortable though and there’s a scowl on kyungsoo’s face as he rolls his sleeves up, blood that is not his own sticking to his skin underneath the black button-down. “shooting is never the problem.” he mumbles through gritted teeth, more towards himself than the other male in room as he begins to undo the shirt buttons. “getting the blood off your clothes is the real pain in the ass.”
YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN A TASK. ENCLOSED YOU WILL FIND DIRECTIONS TO DISPOSE OF A TARGET. WHAT YOU FIRST MUST DO IS QUESTION THIS TARGET. WHO YOU ARE GIVEN IS DECIDED AT RANDOM. YOU ARE GIVEN THIRTY MINUTES TO COMPLETE THIS TASK. IF THEY COMPLY, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO RESORT TO VIOLENCE TO GET INFORMATION OUT. YOU MUST BE TRAINED TO KNOW IF THEY ARE TELLING THE TRUTH. IF YOU FAIL TO KNOW, YOU ARE REMOVED FROM THE LOCATION AND TERMINATED. IF THEY DO NOT COMPLY AND ARE NOT FORTHCOMING WITH INFORMATION, YOU MUST USE ANY MEANS DEEMED NECESSARY TO EXTRACT THE INFORMATION.
YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO KILL THIS PERSON DURING QUESTIONING.
YOU ARE ALLOWED TO USE MORE VIOLENT MEANS THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS, BUT KNOW THAT IF YOU KILL THE TARGET, YOU WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE SCENE AND DISCIPLINED APPROPRIATELY. IF YOU MANAGE TO PRESERVE THEIR LIFE, YOU WILL BE REWARDED WITH A HEFTY SUM IN RETURN. YOU MUST INSTIL FEAR INTO THE TARGET AND IF THEY ARE NOT AFRAID, YOU MUST MAKE SURE THEY KNOW WHO YOU ARE. YOU ARE A BLACK LOTUS MEMBER. THEY NEED TO BE AFRAID.
ONCE YOU HAVE EXTRACTED THE INFORMATION, YOU ARE GIVEN ONE FINAL TASK.
YOU MUST SHOOT THEM.
EVEN IF THEY HAVE PROVIDED THE CORRECT INFORMATION, YOU MUST DISPOSE OF THEM.
THE GUN WILL BE PROVIDED TO YOU. IF YOU SHOW ANY HESITATION IN YOUR KILL, YOU WILL BE REMOVED FROM OUR PREMISES PROMPTLY AND WE WILL MAKE SURE THAT GUN IS AIMED AT YOU.
MAY YOU FLOURISH AND GROW, BLACK LOTUS.
For this mini-event, Black Lotus members are required to write either a solo (Preferably or thread about:
The questioning and the shooting. You need not worry about the after-care, Black Lotus can take care of that.
Your muse trying to get a password out of the NPC. The NPC can be any gender and have any attitude, but you only dispose of them when they say the password “bluebird”
OR
A discussion of the aftermath with a fellow member in Black Lotus’ club, ACE. They can only talk about this in the private room. During this conversation they must make it evident that they’ve come back from the shooting and are either cleaning up (changing into fresh clothes) or reflecting on their performance.
All self paras and threads related to this must be tagged as blacklotusquestioning when they are completed! If you wish for a more insidious outcome for your character, please notify the main and we will arrange something special just for you. Self paras and at least the starters of threads should be posted by December 24th, Eastern Time. Seeing as this is Christmas Eve, however, it is only a tentative end date and extensions will be given upon request.
Any questions about this event may be directed towards the main!
NOTE: This task is not at all mandatory, so if you don’t have time to complete it, or feel it doesn’t suit your muse’s role, never fear! There will be more tasks in the future. If you don’t participate, consider your character never approached with this task. Keep in mind though, that if you do write a response to this prompt, it won’t be optional for your character to complete; they’re certainly expected to finish through.
