"You wish for the death to be painless? You feel sentiment for a target?" When Crossbones crouches, the Operativtries to do a few things. He tries to yank Trissy to her feet and drag the sack off of her, then he tries to stab the knife through one of her eyes.

Operative's Room
Crossbone lets the operative scoop up Trissy without argument. Just...her...she's so much like...No. Crossbone watches blankly as Trissy most likely gets stabbed in the eye. No...you're right. I feel no sentiment. She is meat.
Re: [Nexus] MURDER II: Actual Levels of Murder May Vary
A naked, pregnant drow is hoisted out of the bag. The knife opens a small cut under her eye, but a small burst of pink light opens and deflects almost all of the damage.

The Operative doesn't visibly react to Trissy somehow not dying from the stabbing. Instead, he does two more things at once. He tries to determine any psychic defences, and attempts to snap her neck, something that requires little to no effort for the Operative.
[The Front]
The bar looks like any other bar. Patrons are at tables with their drinks, and there's a bar with a bartender.
Re: [Nexus] MURDER II: Actual Levels of Murder May Vary
Evan steps up to the bartender. He looks different than when he left the Sleeping Goblin, not physically, but in the way that he carries himself. There is seeming lack of any concern in his bearing as he sits down. His eyes are the real change though, they are empty of anything, positive or negative.
Re: [Nexus] MURDER II: Actual Levels of Murder May Vary
Operative's Room
Crossbone watches grimly, still looking rather glum. He's swallowing his snide remarks, valuing his job to be greater than the drow's life. However, he does let a confused look show on his skull. What isss....going on....sssir? Isss Ssshe....alive?
Meanwhile...
Marty follows Evan, looking frightened and very worried.

Sarah is in the lobby, reading a rather saucy-looking book she picked up while in town. She intended to let the Operative know that she's fit for duty again, but does not want to interrupt whatever's going on in there...
Re: [Nexus] MURDER II: Actual Levels of Murder May Vary
[Lobby]
Fade who was here all the time steps out of the dark. He looks emotionless as ever, but as he notice Sarah his eyes widen for a moment. He keeps standing there for a few moments befor he speaks up.
"Hey." he says while waving at her. "What are you reading?"
It's not like Fade really wants to knoe, but she has helped him a while back and Fade tries to be gentle.

Re: [Nexus] MURDER II: Actual Levels of Murder May Vary
Trissy's dad sits, worried. He looks up and down at the place, seeing the green trail lead into the bathroom.
Trissy has extremely powerful magic defenses. Her neck is not snapped, as another flash of pink deflects it. She does start to wake up.

Crossbone grimaces. Each time the stupid drowess wouldn't die, made him look stupid. This drow was starting to be a pain. He was sure he'd feel bad later, but instead just stated. Here...let me....sssir. He'll move to Trissy and try to lop off her hands with his very sharp black dagger. Maybe the ssspell will not work if we kill her indirectly...
Re: [Nexus] MURDER II: Actual Levels of Murder May Vary
The knife is warded off as the pink flashes again! When Crossbone hits the magic, Trissy is out off balance and falls into him.

Chesslyn puts a reassuring hand on Marty's shoulder and stands, stretching.

"Contract? What are you talking about?" The bartender doesn't react beyond that.
[Operative's Office]
The Operative tries to grab Trissy by her throat and pull her off of Crossbones in an attempt to just strangle her, with the aid of his psionics. This convenient magical protection was beginning to irritate him.

Sure it is, Sarah. Sure it is.
[Lobby]
There is allways one out of thousands who don't fall for it.
Fade stops walking staring at Sarah and the book.
"Must be some kind of forbidden magic, right? Otherwise it would be stupid to try to hide it, since this draws even more attention than just going on."

Damn you Fade! You and your logic!
"Um, sure. Let's go with that."
By now, if she wasn't talking to a friend, she probably would have just triggered a cerebral hemorrhage and snuck off while their brain oozed out their nose.

Crossbone will let the Operative do whatever needs done. He'll just slink back to the wall. I apoligizzze...ssshe doessssn't ssseem to be dying...ssshall we lock her away? Ssshe won't be protected by her magic if ssshe ssstarves....eh?
Re: [Nexus] MURDER II: Actual Levels of Murder May Vary

The light flashes again, much, much weaker. After a few tries, the Operative is able to close his fist around her throat. As she chokes, she wakes up quickly with wide, scared eyes. She takes a swing at him with a small fist as he chokes her.

Fade tilts his head.
"Go with that? Does that mean I'm wrong? It's not like I would realy use it against you or such."

Crossbone frowns at the drow, as she aims to punch the Operative, Crossbone stands there. He figures the operative could handle a poor, undefended drow. Ssshe fightsss for her life you sssee...Ssshall you end it? Or am I to do the deed...I am getting tired of sssstanding...

Trissy again swings at him weakly, and chokes out a sound. Why? Wh- acck... who?
((Wow, a naked attractive drow woman standing around and no one even blushes! ))

More silence. Sarah just kind of stares, slightly slack-jawed, and blinks twice.
"...I'm going back to my room. Now."
She stands up and is about to walk into the elevator when she notices she's missing something important. Meanwhile, the book is just sitting in that spot where she was hiding it with her torso.
