“I asked for more information than just that,” Kelsier said, a dangerous note entering his voice. “You want to stay alive, you’d best start being useful.”

I don't know what's going on there, so assume that Adrienne told Kell everything.

Kelsier raised a brow. “Explain.”

"I'm afraid I can't. I just... showed up in a pub somewhere out in the Roughs. That was about a week ago. Someone there gave me a job to assassinate one of the people at that house--they didn't tell me their name, only their description. I don't know who it was or why they wanted me to assassinate that person, but I agreed."

Kelsier snorted. “So you just randomly accept assassination contracts from strangers without bothering to do any research. You’ve read enough of Brandon’s books to recognize my symbol, but didn’t notice it all over the gate? Or did and didn’t consider the consequences of attacking one our members?”

They only decided to use that house when they realized Hoblim was an Orthodox Jew, as they needed one with separate kitchens. So either your employer knew what they were going to choose before they did, or you were targeting the GBs. Which is it? Kell is going to assume the latter.

"I accepted the contract because I had no idea where I was. And I was quite focused on sniping you guys, not the door."

Kelsier rolled his eyes. “That was my point. You didn’t do any reconnaissance. You just accepted the first job offer, no questions asked before or after.” He shook his head. “I have no use for someone that inept.”

I suggest she start talking fast, because right now he’s considering whether to steal her boon or her coinshot ability.

"Listen, man... I didn't accept the job so I could kill someone. I didn't think about getting any of it done, I just... I didn't know where I was, I don't know how I got here, I don't know... anything."

May I remind you that Kelsier is a neurological psychopath? Trying to play the sympathy card is an excersise in futility. He finds it amusing!

“Boon,” Kelsier said decisively. “I can always find another coinshot.” Boons were much harder to come by. “Priére, I’ll need the Atium. You know which alloy?”

The priest nodded. “Yes, Lord Survivor. I will be back shortly.” He hurried up the ladder.

Now she can figure out who he is.

"...Survivor? Kelsier?"

“Kel-see-ay,” Kelsier corrected exasperatedly. “What is it with you people from Earth? There’s no ‘er’ sound!”

It’s taken a ridiculously long time for someone to call him by name in his hearing.

“That is an unfortunate, but common, side effect of hemalurgy, yes,” Kelsier said cheerfully.

"You can't just do that? You say that I'm the criminal, but you kill people to steal their powers?"

“Only if they attack me,” Kelsier said cheerfully. “Or my house or my people. And even then, it depends on the situation. Sometimes I just shoot them.”

"I wasn't attacking you to attack you! I was--" Adrienne paused. "Is there anything I could do that'd result in me not dying?"

“At this point?” Kelsier grinned. “Probably not. But you have ‘til Priére gets back to try.”

"I... is there someone you need assassinated? Just because I was lazy this time around, it doesn't mean I always am."

“I could send you to Roshar to kill Jasnah Kholin... If I was a complete idiot. You’ve given me no reason to trust you kid, nor your abilities - or lack thereof. And you’ve been touched by the Dragon-lady, which makes me even less inclined to let you wander.”

"So... the fact that I happen to be blessed and cursed by Cultivation means that I have to die? Do you have any idea how stupid that sounds?"

“No, the fact that you attacked me and haven’t given me a reason to keep you around means you’re now more useful dead.” He leaned forward, his smile dark. “Don’t you read the annotations, kid? I’m a psychopath. I like hurting people. You can’t make me feel guilty.

”So I suggest you stop trying.”
