To me, Boethiah is too crude for assassination. She's more in the spirit of modern terrorism: create a lot of chaos and fear, at first unannounced. But spread death and terror openly and use fear as a weapon.

Mephala on the other hand is more of a: No-body needs to know what happens, the son replaces the father, his inaptitude for politics will make the kingdom fall so the enemy can conquer the land.

Now, I know that Boethiah is to stand for secret plots of murder. But she has often shown to love and praise battle or violence and for her name to be heared. Evil is her vice and she likes to show it. Mephala however works far more covert, she doesn't need to revel in violence and battle, she knows she'll have the last laugh and that is enough for her.

So, I imagine Boethiah as cackling madly over her acts, while Mephala silently laughs behind her own hand. Boethiah wants gore and horror, Mephala just wants the job done, quietly so her plans are not compromised.
