That firm elbowing caused the costumed girl to burst into a short lived burst of laughter.
Once it subsided, she smirked at Maria.
“It isn’t smart to judge someone’s strength based on their gender.” she told the taller girl.
“Sure.” I nod. I have better things to talk about, and arguing with a girl in a squirrel costume isn’t particularly useful.
I look at the strange figure leading us around, and then back to the group of hooligans I am tasked with tolerating.
Maria Andersson slowly breathes in
“Between the body of us…” I start “…Who knows how to fight and operate a firearm, in the case that we somehow mess up sneaking around?” I ask, with my confidence in my peers bleeding into my voice.

Lexi turns to Voice
“So you do understand in a ROBBERY you need to TAKE things. With FORCE. How do you plan to do that with these twigs might I ask?”
“Home security that is…. The fail safes are really easy to exploit…. Most companies are in it for the money so they dont really care what happens after they sell their product….
