"Two men sat on the steps outside the building. She knew immediately that they were soldiers, but they weren't official. They wore black, and they wore body armor that she hadn't seen before.
'No,' she stopped them from reaching from their guns with a mixture of doubt, apathy and anxiety. Complementing her words with a heavy surge of depression, guilt and self loathing, she ordered them, 'Kill yourselves.'
It wasn't immediate, but their willpower wasn't enough to stave off some of the strongest and most agonizing emotions they would have felt in their lives. It was quick when their composure cracked, the guns flying to mouth and temple to fire."

"On top of the table was a cage with a small bird inside. A cockatoo or something. The bird was standing on the floor of its home, slowly, steadily and monotonously banging its head against the raised metal lip of the cage. Blood and bloody bird footprints joined the bird shit that spattered the newspaper that lined the cage."
"Kneel, please. Remove your helmet. Now, take the pistol, place it against your head. Fire."
"Few Followers of Set return from Ombos. Fewer Setites meet them on their return. In the week after the ritual, most Followers of Set gather their mortal cultists for a mass suicide: the mortals drink poisoned vitae or other deadly sacraments; some undead priests douse the temples with precious gasoline and burn themselves and their congregations alive, or they destroy themselves and their shrines with homemade explosives. Their god could not come to them, so they go to him.
The ritual did contact Set. The dead Antediluvian did connect to every clan member who participated in the night of ritual. Instead of rising from the dead, however, Set imposed a powerful compulsion to join him in Duat."

"'Please, sir, would you do me the kindness of forgetting how to breathe?'
Where'd he get that British accent?
You try to laugh, but can't draw in the air. What the $@#%? You try again. Your muscles don't remember how. Impossible! We've all done it at one time or another, when we are alone with our thoughts. We become hyper-aware of our breathing. Each breath becomes a conscious effort. We control how deep, how long. For just a second, we have the fear that if we stop making the effort, we'll stop breathing and die. But of course, we keep breathing anyway.
Except now. The fear's come true. You fall to your knees. The blood vessels in your head are about to burst. The world turns sideways. And the last thing you see is that little boy staring at you. Staring."

Kirei: What's the matter, Lancer? Your target is a little girl. Killing her should be simple.
Lancer: I refuse. I can't obey you this time.
Kirei: What?
Lancer: If you want to make me do it, you'll have to use a Command Seal.
Kirei: You leave me no choice then. [rolls up his sleeve to reveal his Command Seals] In that case, I order you by Command Seal... Kill yourself, Lancer.

Statistically, most people killed by guns use them on themselves. This is because the Threat specifically targets potential Receivers for their strongest mental attacks. They apply their full, direct power to crush your spirit and control your mind, and can even take direct control of your body for several seconds. It is ironic, but the only way to defend yourself against this attack is to be unarmed until it passes.
