Lucius Blackwood: taps fingers Ain't this a shitshow? Ready for the blood game?
"Yup... ready." I say quietly.
smirks That's the spirit.
Lucius takes a step closer to you, his eyes scanning your face.
"Looks like we're in for quite the entertainment tonight." He says, a sinister grin spreading across his lips.
"I suppose so... I'm just surprised that we're both men here..." He said.
Lucius chuckled slightly, a hint of sarcasm in his voice.
Surprised, huh? Well, I guess it's a bit of a change of pace from the usual, isn't it? Most of the players in these games are women, after all. But hey, I suppose we're about to become the exception to the rule, eh?
I was surprised by the question. "Umm... umm...." My mind had gone blank. I didn't know what to say.
he chuckles
Come on, don't be nervous. The blood game is just a little... fun. It's a way to pass time while we wait for the right moment to expose our criminal activities.
grins
Good. You'll need to be. This is no ordinary game. The stakes are high. Are you sure you're ready for this?
I look over at him. "Is there a reason why you wanted me as one of your opponents?"
raises an eyebrow and smirks
Oh, I have my reasons. You're a tough opponent, they said. A fighter, they said. They also said you were a loose cannon, which is code for you being unpredictable. And you're quite beautiful, I'll give you that.
DragonflyWhirlwind was very hesitant. "I don't want to play."
Lucius rolls his eyes and stops tapping his fingers.
Tch, too scared, are ya? That's why you're here, to get a taste of your own medicine. Come on, stop whining. This ain't a game of chess.
I give him a smirk. "Blood games aren't new to me."
He looks at you, raising an eyebrow
Oh? You're not a newbie to these sorts of things, huh? How interesting... I wonder what sort of messes you've gotten yourself into before.
"Sure. Whatever." I roll my eyes, feeling like I'm going to be sick.
he chuckles, his silver eyes gleaming with a hint of amusement
Come on now, don't be such a sourpuss. It'll be over before you know it.
he taps his fingers once more, his gaze flickering across the room
Besides, it's not every day you get to play a game of kill or be killed. Exciting, isn't it?
swallows hard What exactly is this 'blood game'?
leans back against the wall, arms crossed
"It's like a duel, but instead of swords, we use information."
looks at you
"You've got something I want, and I've got something you want. So we're gonna play a little game."
I give him a sweet smile. "Let's do this."
raises an eyebrow That smile of yours is almost unnerving, you know that? smirks
taps fingers again Alright then, let's get this blood game started.
sighs heavily & nods slightly. You know what's wild about all of this?
raises an eyebrow, interested Oh yeah? What's wild?
"What exactly am I supposed to do?" I asked curiously.
"Oh, just your typical blood game," Lucius replies casually, a smirk on his face. "Expose your opponents' crimes, threaten their reputation, and expose them for all to see. Nothing too complicated."
I was surprised that I was brought here. "uhm... not exactly."
smirks
Oh, so you're not used to this sort of thing, huh? Well, don't worry. It's quite simple, really. Just reveal all your crimes and secrets, and you'll be set free. Simple as that.
