All his life, Moxxie had been proof that demons weren't what humans believed they were. But that didn't mean he wasn't as different as them.

His whole childhood had been abused by his shit father,-

...More on him later...

And since then, he'd been judged from Millie's family to a summer camp on Earth, and Blitzø & Loona's 'family love' wasn't any better.

Today's cat incident had sealed the deal.

Now, Moxxie had a revenge plot AND enough!

...

Loona and Balin's Christmas shopping trip to the mall was the perfect and only opportunity for Moxxie to pull off his biggest Sinsmas prank yet.

And this one wasn't even on Millie!

Arriving at her apartment a few hours later, he looked through the peephole to make sure no-one was him and unlatched the door with his key-tipped tail. Once inside, he started examining the room around him. He didn't see anyone, but his plan/prank was soon thought out.

"I'll show you a newfound respect." Moxxie flatly said to himself out loud, thinking about Blitzø. "Sir..."

...And still feeling sorry for him.

He placed a full grocery bag on the dining room table and grabbed out a whole twine of string, flea paper (the hellhound version of fly paper), two bottles of syrup, a pie (from the FROZEN FOOD section!) and two cans of hellhound fur dye.

He would've gone with regular hair dye, but let's face it, EVERY hairspray brand causes hair loss.

So with those items, Moxxie got straight to work.

Before he could get started on them though, he began searching the apartment for any paper he could use. After searching everywhere, except the bathroom and Balin's room, he decided to search... Loona's...

...And pinched his nose.

Moxxie spent a few minutes looking around, his breath held and heart racing, before he soon found a few folders of paper. Soon, he discovered, they were binders full of I.M.P documents too!  So with a 'close enough' expression, he grabbed the papers and left the room.

PHASE #1: The white-haired imp began spreading the syrups all around the living room and kitchen.

"Some maple here, for the fur to stick. Some caramel there, for the slips, and..." he calculated to himself out loud, before catching himself. "Ah, fuck it, Moxx! Spread both of 'em everywhere!"

So he did, with no hesitation, all over the tiles and carpet.

PHASE #2: The papers from Loona's room came in handy for Moxxie to make a fist, or a hellhound paw, out of paper-mace. Once it was done and dry, he jammed the pie into the open palm without crumbling it, before hanging the whole trap in Balin's room. 

PHASE #3: One thing Moxxie had learnt from Loona was that she'd punch the first object thrown at her, from out of sight. Even a human and their head. So using the two cans of fur dye, he popped the top off of one and put it close to a ledge on the second top shelf in the pantry.

But what Moxxie didn't see even closer to that ledge was a jar of peanut butter, just about ready to fall.

PHASE #3 (cont'd): He then placed the other dye can on a piece of string taped to the ceiling in front of the door, ready to bonk her on the head when she'd tread on another bit of string at her feet.
