The Killing Game
Who: The Raven crew: Gansey, Blue, Adam, Ronan and Noah
What: Blue targets Gansey during the Assassin event
Where: The Raven House.
When: During Rage's Assassin event
Warnings: Attempted murder, the full list of swear words known by Ronan Lynch, teenage angst.
[ As far as Gansey knows, it's an ordinary morning in their house. He's yet to venture outside, and hasn't seen any of his friends emerge from their rooms. Given that his own is the living room these days, and also given that he struggles to sleep most nights, he typically finds himself wandering around alone in the mornings. This isn't a place with a great prevalence of cereal boxes, and his beloved car is still at home, so his usual methods of distracting a wakeful mind are unavailable.
That's why, on this particular morning, his friends will arrive to discover Gansey has built some approximation of the Eiffel Tower out of a range of the house's cutlery. There may have been one or two minor crashes, when his efforts collapsed on him, but really, that should just make everyone glad that he didn't decide to use the plates. This is a lot harder than it looks. He's in the kitchen, minding his own business, and setting this monstrosity up on one of the counters. There's also some indeterminate can of something being warmed in the microwave; let no one say he never attempts to cook for his friends.
Oblivious to what's started to happen around the city, Gansey goes innocently about his model building, and waits for the first of them to wake up. ]

The switchblade would, undoubtedly, have stabbed straight into his chest if Ronan hadn't been there. Thank Christ Ronan's reflexes are quicker than Gansey's, because if Gansey had been left to his own devices, he'd be bleeding on the floor by now. It takes Ronan's action to even make him fully realize that she has just tried to kill him. That thought replays over and over in Gansey's mind, and finally spurs him to move, skirting back from Blue and instinctively putting the kitchen table between them. His eyes are wild, going from her to Ronan, and he's now very aware of that switchblade. Jesus, what if she hurts Ronan in trying to get to Gansey? ]
Blue, stop! What the hell are you doing? Put the knife down, we can talk about this!
[ Can't they? How has this come to one of his best friends pulling a weapon on him? This entire situation feels impossible. ]

She's not out to hurt him. If she struggles too much, she might hurt him. She doesn't want to hurt Ronan. She just wants to get Gansey away from Ronan, before Gansey does end up hurting Ronan. That's how it all plays out in her head. That's how it all twists together.
Her heart is pounding in her chest as she stands, slightly frozen with her teeth ground tight. Gansey looks like an injured bird and Ronan's there to pick him up and save the day. ]
Ronan.
Let me the fuck go. [ She snarls under her breath, fingers tightening on her blade and eyes fixed on Gansey. She hasn't really looked away from him since she came in the house. ]

Gansey is panicking and Blue isn't in her right mind. Something has to be done about this, and Ronan grits his teeth, trying to figure it out, even if he's not necessarily a planner. Adam would know what to do, wouldn't he? Even Noah could probably help, and so he heaves Blue back another inch or so, before leveling his gaze on Gansey, sharp and uncompromising.]
Go. Find Parrish, tell him what's going on. I'm taking Sargent up to her room.
[He swallows thickly, trying to process the rest of this out, jump over the immense hurdle of Blue just tried to stab Gansey. Jesus. His arms tighten on her, determined not to let her go.]
Stay gone for a few hours. We'll calm the fuck down here, and then figure this shit out together. Got it? [His arms tighten on Blue, directing the next words to her-] You. Got it?

Jesus Christ.
No. Gansey has to get a hold of himself here. This is very, very wrong, and it is very not Blue. Even if she were angry with him, she wouldn't kill him. She wouldn't kill anyone. This is all wrong, and they have to -
They have to help her. But they can't if she's just looking at Gansey with rage, and -
Ronan's right. He needs to get away from her. He backs off, and forces his eyes to fix on Ronan rather than Blue. ]
Get the knife off her. I'll tell Parrish.
[ Whatever's wrong with Blue, Ronan is stronger than her, and he has her in a lock. He'll be all right. He has to be. Gansey backs out of the room, turning the corner at the door so that he's out of Blue's eyeline, and then he leans against the wall. He needs to catch his breath here.
Then he'll find Adam. ]
