"Are you sure this is the right house?"
@vhab49_PE asked, squinting at the gaudily decorated home. "It seems...cheap. And tacky."
@tj_PE scoffed from behind, rooting around in the gutted van to begin collected her 'tools'. "This is the richest neighborhood in town and it's the holiday season. Half these ******** are already in the Bahamas," she responded, adjusting her balaclava. "Do you have your mask?"
"I have baklava."
@vhab49_PE stated, gesturing at the beautiful platter balanced precariously on the front dashboard.
This heist was off to a rocky start.
Lucky,
@tj_PE was able to pop the side door lock of the home with ease.
@vhab49_PE held the door open quite nicely.
@tj_PE quickly moved deeper into the house, having researched beforehand and realizing that numerous photos had been posted of the interior during a previous 'best lawn' gala. Rich people were weird.
"This will be easy," they said to the trailing
@vhab49_PE, who was opening up the various hallway closets, "We get in, grab all the small valuables. We'll reset any jewelry, so they can't be traced, maybe keep a few of the nicer bits for us, and then we'll-" They stopped at the loud thump from behind, highly honed thief reflexes kicking in. When they realized the noise was repeating, and thus wasn't a person, they turned to chastise
@vhab49_PE-
Who was staring at the corpse on the ground.
"What the-"
"Fudge. In the van. We should go."
@vhab49_PE promptly said, stepping over the body that appeared to have half of its face chewed off. The meat glistened in a half-coagulated mass when
@tj_PE's flashlight swept over it, revealing a leg that was bent in a direction no leg ever should but the hands were only impacted by minor superficial defense wounds. Except for the head, where teeth marks could be seen in the exposed skull, the rest of the body seemed fairly...untouched. Almost as if the person had a delayed response to whatever had killed them and hadn't felt threatened before death.
The more disturbing thing was that the body had been shoved into a linen closet, which meant whoever or whatever had done this might still be in the home.
"Let's...go eat some fudge,"
@tj_PE said quietly to the empty house, wondering if someone was watching silently from the third master bedroom.
@squaretaper LIT AF PE was lynched by the townfolk by RPS (they did not respond).
