"I don't think I expected this," Pao says, good naturedly. "Then again I can't say I didn't see it coming entirely."
She's leaning back in her chair, feet on the table. Anyone would think it's just another ordinary day and it is, really, as far as ordinary passes around this place. "You know the thing is, there's really not much of a reason to kill me, but then again, I guess you could have said that about the rest of them." She shrugs, before looking around at the rest.
Yukeh's looking away, somewhere between bored and tired, while next to her Aisu seems to be paying more attention to the table than to anyone else. No matter how routine this has become, it's still not a subject that anyone really likes to talk about.
"Not much of a reason for you to die, maybe, but not much not to either," Lavie says. She doesn't have to add that the same applies to all of them, they all know that.
"I know, I know," Pao sighs. "Well, now I've got to wonder what to do. Throw myself off the roof? I'd probably get a broken leg if I did, and then someone else would have to finish me off, that'd be terribly messy."
"Or we could find one of the spiders from last night, how about that?" Tess suggests, rubbing her arm somewhat conciously- it still hasn't healed yet, and won't be for quite a bit. "Stuff it down your throat, then you'd choke and get poisoned to death at the same time."
Pao looks over at her. "Oh, that's creative. Though I don't think those have ever really been my taste, no."
"Lead?" Jill asks.
Everyone looks at her for a moment, before she shakes her head slightly. "I mean, is lead more to your taste?"
There's another awkward moment, before Pao finally laughs. "Well, not my favourite thing, I'd say," she says. "Certainly not even in my top ten, you know. But I suppose there's worse things out there."
"I suppose you'd know what they are, too," Case smiles back. "So, will you be staging a shootout? Asking for a chase? Jumping into the ocean and drowning yourself? I ask this only because it's more convenient for us all, that way."
Leaning forward, Pao thinks for a moment. "More convenient? Well, then, I suppose to spare you all the trouble, I might just take the quicket route-"
And there she is, gun in hand and pointed right at her temple. It's an old one, a good solid revolver which'll blast your brains out anyday. Messy, maybe, but quick, just like she said.
"-though, you know what? I think I'm going to be seeing some of you join me pretty soon, if you know what I mean."
"I hope not," Aisu says, first thing she's said in ages, glancing up quickly.
"Well, hope's a nice thing to have," Pao replies, and pulls the trigger.
Less than half of the original number left, now. And yes, you'll certainly be hoping for the best.
