Payment Due
Who: Kingpin and Black Cat
Where: Downtown New York City
When: Fri, May 18, 9:06 PM
What: Black Cat investigates a job offer.
Rating: Probably SFW, two professional criminals conducting themselves accordingly... right?
With the silent ease of someone who'd been learning to move like a thief since she could walk, Black Cat dropped from the ceiling. A draft of wind blew past the window, the only noise in the room, her way in and likely her way out. There was a smell of expensive cigars in the air, a pleasant one. It spoke of money and privilege.
She'd scoped the building out for two hours before moving in, and found herself a few minutes past the invitation's requested time. It was a sacrifice Felicia was willing to make, as the request was sudden and sounded less like a request than a demand.
There were men outside the room. There were men crawling all over the place, and not your friendly suit, but criminals who knew their job and did it well. Not their fault she could do it better, but best not to try and get their attention either. He was breathing calmly in his chair, the light hiding his features. A man of means, with the ability to pay... dangerous. Someone used to getting his way, but also to earning that right. Felicia Hardy was convinced of his character at that moment.
The Black Cat stood to her full height, making her presence known in the dim office. "I'll have you know," she purred, letting practiced sultriness and a familiarity with violence slip into her voice, "this smells like more of a trap than a job opportunity."
