You can thank my cousin for that. He’s the one that burnt my bangs so they won’t grow back again. My hairstyle really isn’t my fault. OTL
Maybe he’s getting a bit slack. Smirking as the sound of the shot resounded across the roof of the building, Sagittarius is just about ready to pack up and get back to headquarters when he hears the opening of a metal door and the telltale sound of a cocked handgun. He doesn’t even have to look to know that it’s pointed straight at his head, and half expects the cold press of a metal barrel against his skull at any moment. Oh, he’d forgotten about this.
A knowing smile comes onto his features as he hears her greeting. He gives a small nod before turning his head slightly to look at the woman. “Thank you, but it really wasn’t that much of a challenge,” he comments offhandedly, brushing his achievement off in a way that he knows will make her simmer with anger. His bright, cocky violet eyes stare straight into hers, meeting her gaze evenly although he’s clearly at a disadvantage. Some people have said that his arrogance knows no bounds. He would disagree- it’s not arrogance if it’s true.
There is a moment of hesitance on her part, and he sees a sort of anger and jealousy in her eyes. It’s an expression he knows well, one that he’s gotten used to seeing, and countless others have looked upon him with. This is a brief pause, but it’s enough for him to formulate an escape plan in his mind. Part of his mind almost scorned her, wanted to ask her how she expected to catch him so easily.
A grim smile stretched her lips as she steeled herself for the kill. She probably hadn’t killed many people that she personally knew, hadn’t she? Later, Sagittarius would wonder if this who hired her to kill him, and that the client probably didn’t know his mercenaries very well. Or could it be out of her own initiative? Right now though, the so-called prodigy was occupied with preparing to execute his plan.
By the time she pulls the trigger, he’s already dodged away and pulled a knife from his sleeve. Sniping isn’t the only thing that near-perfect aim is useful for, and Ophiuchus has taught him a few tricks after all. She’s too hesitant, he thinks to himself. It takes a few seconds to aim again at a moving target and prepare to shoot again, But of course within these few seconds, he’s already up behind her with a knife pressed to her throat.
It’s only then that the words that she said before shooting process in his mind.
“You’re too hesitant, Arcturus. Too soft,” he tells her quietly, knowing that the words will hurt her, but it’s the honest truth.
With that, he slips out the door, closing it behind him, and leaves.

Just as he pulled the trigger, warning bells started to sound in his head, and the sniper couldn’t help but shift his gaze just the slightest to one side out of instinct. That’s when he saw it. A girl, who looked probably only around his own age, probably the bratty kid of one of the dinner party guests, staring right in his direction.
He’d been spotted. Shit.
His brief startling caused the shot to go awry, the bullet lodging itself roughly through the target’s left eye instead of between the eyes like it was supposed to. The man cringed, glad that it had at least hit. He had to get out of there ASAP, before he was apprehended. If he hadn’t made the shot, then he wouldn’t have had time to prepare for another. An eyeshot was good enough, it should kill him, right?
Picking up his rifle and cursing under his breath, he realised that he was in big trouble. He’d let such a small thing nearly compromise the entire mission, and worse of all, he’d been seen. But the witness was some big name’s daughter, not someone that would be easy to just knock off!
A plan began to formulate inside the sniper’s head as he dashed off the roof and into a darkened alley. Hiding his weapon inside a dumpster, he decided to go back and get it later. Now, he had a gala to crash.
