Lust, on the other hand, was at least mildly pleased! Or was at least mildly pleased after the disorientation of whatever teleportation dealie Ra's al Ghul had used to get her here had worn off. It wasn't 2009 anymore, and this was hardly the kind of uncouth pleasure that manifested on her face; her mouth remained quite stationary, and her face neutral, as she looked down at the city. But regardless of her expression, he was a valuable ally, and here they were. Of all the pasttimes the two might have engaged in together, this was hardly the most offensive to her tastes ( ... )

The wind fluttered Ra's cloak around him lazily and briefly he closed his eyes to it, determining the wind direction and how much pollution was in the air. He thought it best to cleanse the air with smoke. Simple. Basic.

He turned to Lust. "Don't leave anyone alive," he said, smiling at her. "Their existence is unnatural enough. To offer mercy is to do the world a greater disservice."

Drawing his sword, Ra's pointed toward the faint glimpse of ocean on the horizon. "The wind is traveling from the water. Should the city burn, avoid getting caught in the flames."

"Mm."

She took his smile as a cue, the corners of her mouth quirking to reveal sharp teeth, and stepped forward with her gaze still on the horizon. His words echoed a little unfortunately in the back of Lust's head--don't get caught in the flames--but making a reaction obvious would only be edging toward self-betrayal. At any rate, it wasn't a desirable impression to make so early.

"I'll try my best, then," she said, her eyes briefly fixing on Ra's' (LOL) face before doubling back to their current target. "Shall we?"

Ra's's grin sharpened and he gave her a brisk nod.

Fire would be the most efficient solution, but he longed to spill blood himself, feel it coat his hands. He teleported first so that he could light the hills afire, and then replaced himself at Lust's side.

"Apologies," he said, holding up his sword again. "I thought I would start us off."

It was a useful trick, at the very least. Lust rolled her shoulders in a light shrug.

"Not at all." Once again she looked in his direction, raising her eyebrows considering as though the idea had only just occurred to her. "In fact... it might be more efficient for us both to arrive like that. If you don't mind, of course."

Her smile widened.

"I'd hate to remove the element of surprise."

"Of course. Take my arm," he said lightly, offering it to her.

"Where would you like to begin? By the coast, or by the town? They'll be soon fleeing in this direction."

holy shit what does "holding his arm considering" mean why do i write words insineration January 29 2012, 19:37:24 UTC
Lust stepped in closer, accepting his arm with a deceptively gentle grip. He might have been escorting her to a ball.

"Then let's not keep them waiting." She inclined her head slightly. "The town, I think."

LMFAO why don't we just fastforward "and then they made out in the flames" lazarisen January 30 2012, 09:06:51 UTC
They disappeared in a cloud of smoke, appearing in another that was compounded by the thick smoke of growing fire. Ra's bared his teeth in a sadistic grin as cries began to travel on the wind; his muscles ached and tensed with blood lust.

He flexed his body for a moment as if doing Tai Chi, sword drawn out, before he looked at Lust and nodded.

"Shall we?"

He was excited about this, and that alone was enough to fuel her own desire to spill blood, one which had been lying relatively dormant since her October expedition with Ms. Lestrange. Like someone eating for the first time after a long period of distraction, she hadn't realized quite how hungry she was. She tipped her head in a silent nod.

Lust had no sword to bare, but her hands were now distinctly unattached to her hips. A man, 40-something and balding and breathing hard, ran by them. She allowed him to clear a few hundred feet before her fingers caught up with him, closing the gap between her right hand and the insides of his skull, and he dropped like a puppet with its strings cut.

"Let's."
