Her eyes flitted, up and down again, as if observing the fresh victim of one of Peixes' rare successful murders, though she couldn't see in the pitch black of the forest.
She didn't care for a second thought, absconding down the path to her houwe, which was lined with stones.
Her mom wasn't home tonight. Although Vriska admired her, she did always appreciate some time to herself. She swung open the door, dried blood on her hands. She needed to think.
She hauled herself to her room, her back slouching. She could tell she either looked pathetically tired and upset right now, or overdramatic.
Or both. A certain someone had proved to her that it was possible to look both parts.
She reached her bed, flopping down on it with a groan almost as pathetic as the aforementioned someone.
The trident clattered loudly to the ground as her arm's grip relaxed. She payed no mind to it, apart from clasping her hands over her ears.
Think-- she urged her brain. Who could it have been?
But, instead, all she thought about was how she was, out there, a sly Thief doing her criminal Mom's bidding, but in here, she restlessly pondered on the victim of the murder, as if this murder was even relevant to her.
Although it would have been normal for any other 13 year old girl to not simply move past being at a crime scene, she had been the cause of a few of those before.
Albeit for shoplifting and such. But, hey, she had been desensitized to crime, especially under her Mom's influence!
But she supposed it was simply her usual thirst for knowledge.
