#carnage and kuuni

[noctem-filler]

Storyline: Mitz and Bella

Carnage scowled as he looked at the picture he was given. It showed the face of Israna Sunrazor, with a few details such as height, weight, and crimes scribbled on the back. And most importantly...the price. The head of the elf was worth a solid 3 million gold. “Kuuni! Come on. Hurry up. This one’s important.”

The Pandaren grumbled as she dragged her scythe on the ground, meeting up with the Kal’dorei standing at the door. “Yeah, yeah, fuckin’ whatever. Shit, do we really gotta fuckin’ do this? I’m not in the fuckin’ mood to go around with this shit, you know?” Carnage simply rolled his eyes at the Pandaren’s whining and glanced over at Augustus, who was reading a book. 

“Augustus. We’re heading out now. We have a contract to do. You don’t mind informing Vira when she returns, do you?”

The Human simply nodded after taking a small sip of his wine. “Of course. Don’t worry about it, I’ll be sure to let her know.” The Worgen nodded in appreciation and headed out the door, Kuuni grumbling as she followed. Each of them grabbed their pendants, slowly starting to fade away. A few moments would pass before they found themselves in the Ghostlands. 

“This is bullshit. We shouldn’t have to go off every two fucking hours to collect your stupid bounties, you stupid cunt.” Kuuni spat, holding her scythe over her shoulder as she looked around. “Of fuckin’ course we’re here again. Are we going to look for another stupid pirate whore you want to claim the head of? Some shitty corrupt guard? A dumb Troll or some shit?” 

“The second one.” Carnage started to walk off, slowly slipping into his Worgen form. “Stay here a minute. I need to see if something’s here.”

Kuuni groaned, rubbing the blade across her hand and letting a smirk spread across her face as she awaited her partner’s return.

One Off: Scones

“Fuck, I’m starving.” The annoyed voice of the religious nut, Kuuni the Pandaren, piped up as the remaining members of Noctem were still seated after a meeting with Vira, the Shal’dorei member the Boss preferred to use as her ‘public face’, delivering messages to the group.  “Then why don’t you get something to, idiot? The meeting’s over.” The Kal’dorei Worgen seated across from her, Carnage, growled. He refused to look up at his partner, busy counting at the gold gathered from his most recent bounty.

“I don’t wanna fucking get up, Carnage. Jeez, fucking think every once in a while.” “Your laziness falls on deaf ears, I’m afraid, when you’re seating so close to that one.” The silver-haired Quel’dorei, Hecate, pointed a finger at the huntress, Trueshot, who had already fallen asleep, and was drooling on the table. 

The Pandaren rolled her eyes, grumbling as she got up from her seat. “Can’t believe I have to fucking get out of MY chair just to get some fucking food because you asshats are too fucking lazy.”

As she wanders over to the counter, Augustus passes her by, running his fingers through his short blonde hair. “You know, you need only ask, I’m eager to cook something up,” the human let out an annoyed sigh. “And you needn’t be so loud. Jebidiah has a headache, you know.”

Kuuni rolled her eyes she stood at the counter, realizing...she doesn’t actually know how to make anything. She turns to Augustus with a scowl on her face. “Well fine. Fucking make something, then.” 

“Alright, alright. Just calm down.” Augustus chuckled and went off to make food for the bitchy Pandaren.

Kuuni turned back to the table and sat down, listening to the conversations of the others at the table. 

“I really don’t see why anything’s gotta change.” A Dwarf grumbled, head rested on one of his hands. “I think sleeping arrangements are just fine.”

Hecate scoffed at the balding Wildhammer. “You only say that because you like rooming with the bird. I’d trade anything to not have the Crimson Killer anywhere near me.”

Trueshot raised her head. “Yeeeah, I dunno. Orizi’s pretty good to have around, to be honest.”

“That’s because you like having her clean your room for you, Trueshot.” Avalora shook his head. 

“Well yeah. I’m not gonna do it myself.”

Augustus brought set down a platter. With scones and some tea. “Here you go. Something to hold you off until dinner.” He gave a small smile to Kuuni before heading out of the room, his blue-haired brother following close behind him.

Avalora smiled and went to take one, though Kuuni smacked his hand. “Fuckin’ hell, Ave?! They’re for ME, you fucker!” She snatched a scone and bit into it, only to spit it out immediately. “Ech! The fuck? The hell IS this shit?!”

“It’s a scone, Kuuni.” 

“The fuck did you just say?”

“A scone.”

“It’s fucking terrible!”

“You asked for food, didn’t you?”

“Well yeah, bu-”

“Beggars can’t be choosers, Kuuni.” Hecate interrupted, her grin widening. 

And with that, the Pandaren grumbled and stormed out the room, throwing a chair to the side. Carnage sighed, bowed his head to the group, and followed her out.

Noctem's Thoughts on: Avalora

Augustus: The serial killer who plagued Westfall for several years. If I weren't bound by a code not to kill anyone, I'd already have my revenge.

Beverly: He's a terrifying mix between cold and efficient. Shows no mercy. Dangerous eyes, but they seem to hurt him whenever he uses them somehow.

Bloodlust: I don't trust those eyes. Kay'van says he's nice enough, but I don't care.

Carnage: With his murders coming to light, he has a high bounty on his head. 4 million gold.

The Crimson Killer: Trapped me in that dimension of his once. Didn't like it one bit. He said it was a fitting punishment for what I did to that girl, but what does he know? She was asking for it!

Diana: At least I'm open about the shit I do. This fucker tried to cover everything up and pretend like he was a nice guy. Fuck him.

Elesh: Charismatic as fuuuuuck. I could get lost in his eyes forever...

Elreian: Nice enough guy. Good looking. I'd hate to admit it, I'm crazy nervous around him. I want a chance to show him a good time.

Excis: Even though he's a bloody serial killer, Parshash likes him. He approached me a couple times and...well, yeah, he's okay.

Hecate: He's smart. He's powerful. He's sexy. Above all, though, he's perceptive. I don't know how I feel about him.

Jebidiah: Scary...Big Bro doesn't like him. But he's really nice to me and everyone else, so I don't see why I can't try to be his friend. He seems really lonely...

Kay'van: I like him! He looks serious, but he's not afraid to have fun, like everyone else. He helped me with my tea party!

Kroom: Keen eyes. Strong grip.

Kuuni: I dunno what the deal is with those fuckin' eyes, but Hakkar says he'd be a good fuckin' sacrifice. Gotta admit, I'm fuckin' tempted despite these fucking rules.

The Masked Man: He's not afraid to have fun! He's even sung a duet with me! Great guy, I don't know why Mon'y is so obsessed with those eyes, though.

Mona'zew: An efficient illusionist and pyromancer. I thought being a Lich would keep me safe from Echoes, but that isn't the case. I must do research on these eyes...

Orizi: Tried fighting him, but he doesn't really like to play. Glad he's not my partner, he seems to want the job done too quick.

Parshash: I'd believed him to be a good man, until I found out about the murders. I can see how he got away for so long, but if I weren't working with him, I'd put him down.

Sajei: Nice and polite, but he clearly doesn't like me. I dunno why, I like to think I'm pretty cool.

Trueshot: He's a nice guy, but he's always out and about. Dunno how he finds the motivation.

Vira: He's a great guy to hang out with, though he can be awkward sometimes. I'm reluctant to kill him, because he'd actually be better if he were in Mèlionae or the Accord. But it's what Mulkork says needs to happen.

Zenmyse: My partner and best friend. He loves telling jokes and puts my needs before his own. He's nice to everyone, but I worry about his eyesight. That power drains a lot from him.

The Boss: Perceptive.

Avalora: I just want what's best for this world.

Noctem's Thoughts on: Elreian

Augustus: A more charismatic Crimson Killer, I'm suspecting from his jokes by the library. Likewise, he deserves no sympathy, nor mercy.

Avalora: A superficial charmer who tries to cover up his sadistic and toxic personality with mind control. I don't know any specifics of what he's done, but judging by his ability, I doubt any of it was good.

Beverly: He seems like a nice enough guy, if a bit uppity. I might have to take him out for a drink some time.

Bloodlust: He LOOKS like a nice guy, but something is up! I'm not trusting him for a second!

Carnage: A bounty of only a few thousand at first. But if his crimes came to light, it'd be 20 million. He'll be exposed before he dies.

The Crimson Killer: A nice guy. Has a lot of...similar interests. Gotta work on getting Hecate to let me spend a bit of time with him...

Diana: Seems kind of boring, if you ask me. I don't see any reason to bother talking to him. Just another snobby better-than-you elf. He should kill himself.

Elesh: He gets annoyed really easy. Prissy little elf should have stayed in his nursing home, gods damn.

Excis: I don't like him! Not that he's done anything to warrant it, this time. I just don't have any reason TO like him. Myeh.

Hecate: Gets along too well with my idiot partner. I have nothing to else to say about him.

Jebidiah: He's really nice to me, at least. I don't know why Augustus doesn't like him so much...

Kay'van: He seems really nice! He always helps out when something goes wrong in the kitchen! He thinks my birds are really cool!

Kroom: The spirits are silent on this one. Be wary of him.

Kuuni: Hakkar says he wants him as a fuckin' sacrifice. I'll get around to it, he hasn't pissed me off enough yet to butcher his ass.

The Masked Man: What a stand up guy! Boss-man says he's a really bad dude, but hey, he seems like he'd be a great star! I wonder how his singing voice is...

Mona'zew: Boring and not noteworthy in the slightest. I've read up a bit on his power and it's interesting, but he doesn't seem like the type who can take true advantage of it.

Orizi: I wanna fight him, but he's a mage-type, and that game wouldn't last very long. Seems like he'd be easy to distract anyway, though.

Parshash: He's nice enough. Certainly not worth pursuing as everyone else seems to be...

Trueshot: Kinda creepy some times. I know the shit he's done, but doing anything about it would be too much effort. It's a good thing he can't do anything to me, is all I have to say.

Vira: Past the point of redemption. Hopefully I don't need to use him for long.

Zenmyse: Avalora AND my blade don't really like him. I don't really know, nor care, why.

The Boss: Manipulative.

Elreian: Noctem's certainly interesting. Not what I expected it to be. I regret parts of my decision to join, but it has merits to it.

Noctem's Thoughts on: The Crimson Killer

Augustus: A murderer and a pedophile. When we finally escape this prison of an organization, I'll make sure he gets what he deserves.

Avalora: I'm bound by the rules not to kill him. Otherwise, he'd spend an eternity in the Echoes dreamscape.

Beverly: He deserves every beating Hecate gives him, the sick monster.

Bloodlust: I avoid him when I can. If there's anyone in Noctem I absolutely can't trust, it's *him*.

Carnage: His bounty is over 6 million. Nobody would care if I turned him in.

Diana: He's. So. Cool!

Elesh: I'm really glad Hecate is there behind him, because if she weren't, he'd seriously hurt someone. Fucking scumbag.

Elreian: A cool enough guy. Couldn't get a willing woman if he tried, though, which is fortunate. I would have liked to know him when he was alive. ...Gods, I hope I don't turn out like that...

Excis: He deserves everything that's coming to him. I'd kill him myself if I were allowed to!

Hecate: An annoying waste of space. He constantly wastes time on our missions trying to fuck girls or murder innocents. He clearly wasn't beaten enough as a kid. Fortunately, I can make up for it.

Jebidiah: Augustus says to stay far away from him. I don't like how he looks at me...

Kay'van: He's a bad guy! But I'm told I gotta take care of him anyway, so I do what I can, I guess. But it's no fun.

Kroom: Waste of space.

Kuuni: Hakkar says he's not even fucking worth it. But I'm tempted to kill him anyway, for some reason.

The Masked Man: He always smells weird. Not like the Undead smell weird. Just, weird. Oh well. He signed up to be in the musical, so, gotta work with it! The show must go on!

Mona'zew: Despicable. But his poisons are fascinating. I must learn how to recreate Purple Haze and Stone Free before he inevitably gets himself killed.

Orizi: Dangerous fighter when he's not playing with me. Apparently, Superfly makes me immune to Purple Haze. A shame, he seemed like he'd be a fun one..

Parshash: The crimes he's committed make me sick to my stomach. He'll pay for them soon, even if I can't do much about it now.

Trueshot: I'm glad he ain't MY partner. Dude's a psycho.

Vira: Depraved and needlessly cruel, but required. Fortunately, it won't be long before he's outlived his usefulness.

Zenmyse: Huh? Who?

The Boss: Disposable.

The Crimson Killer: Man, everyone here is such a bore. Why did they bother recruiting me if they don't want to let me do what I need to do, though?
