That's it, it's time to find a game again. It's been way too long since I've played a killer, and a crazy assassin just jumped into my head.
Or no, he's not crazy, he's too fucking sane, and he's tired, and killing people is nothing, it's a day's work, that's all, so he can have totally rational head-conversations with himself about whether he'd prefer the knife or the gun or the rope or some other weapon entirely, or whether he's too tired to get really creative with wire and a razor and he'd really prefer to just shoot his victims because then he can go home early. Not like he's on a clock or something, but when the job's done it's done and he'd like to have his home time too. Not that his house is particularly a domestic place - that's totally milkcrates and scrounged books and perfect fucking weapons because the police can't touch him, not with the power he's got behind him - but he wants to be there at the end of the day. And the power behind him, that's big, that's something I'm not sure about yet, so maybe it's Mafia or something, but whatever it is, he's untouchable because of it, and because he isn't dumb enough to kill people who don't have it coming. He's not a crazy psycho, he's an avenger of wrongs done - but at the same time, he's not only about killing people who deserve it, because he's an assassin, for fuck's sake. He doesn't avenge because it's wrong to do whatever the hell his vics did, he avenges because it's his job. And like the best jobs, he's good at it, but not crazy with it.
