The rain poured down like sheets of ice water, already seeming to coat that town in an icy vice. Most of the town's residents were asleep save for the lone figure walking down a rather dark street on the way to his apartment building. He was seemingly out of place, ice clinging to his soaked forest green fur, striped tail dragging behind him as he didn't even bother to try and avoid getting himself any dirtier. After all he wasn't the one who had run off with all the money, nope, he was the 'distraction' and his older twin was the one to take the van and race back home.
His feet sloshed through a particularly deep slushy puddle and he found himself not really caring if he got sick after this, they should have enough to not have to pull off another heist for a while. Lifty stifled a yawn, stretching his shoulders slightly and still feeling the imprints of where he had gotten his ass handed to him. The ONE time they rob Petunia is during a tea party. He went to rub his face, careful of his swollen left eye which he could thank Lammy for later. Or maybe just for once Shifty could get back at them for him. Lifty gave an annoyed growl at the thought of his brother, wishing that he could have waited two minutes before driving off. And just guessing.. he'd already used up the hot water.
Lifty continued his march of sulking and annoyance right on up to their apartment door, knocking on the door for his dumbass brother heard. The young raccoon huffed his already being sopping wet not adding to the pleasantness of the evening. With a loud click the many locks on the door unlatched and the door swung open to show Shifty standing there smug.
''Took you long enough! I'm surprised no one saw you on the way over here.'' Shifty snickered at him as he trudged inside, dripping water all over the already pretty ruined carpet of their shared apartment. The younger twin only huffed as he went to the bathroom, picking up a towel off the floor to start trying to rub the ice out of his fur.
''I'm still pissed at you Shifty!'' He scowled and rubbed the towel harder against his forest green fur, feeling the cloth already be rather soaked. Lifty tossed the towel down, opening the cupboard to look for another and not looking up as he heard Shifty walk into the doorway.
''It was either wait for you or lose everything. You should have run a bit faster there.'' He sounded annoyed as well but honestly when wasn't he annoyed at something Lifty was doing wrong? Lifty rolled his eyes, pulling out a fresh towel and starting to rub at his ears to avoid them falling off from frostbite again. Actually he was still pissed about that heist going wrong too!
''Well maybe one time you can at least try to wait? I got my ass handed to me back there and-" Lifty paused, closing his eyes as he sneezed, shaking his head and sending a fair amount of water about the room. "And I think I might get sick too."
"Well it's not my fault you tripped!'' Shifty scoffed, turning and leaving Lifty to dry himself off as he went to go count their loot most likely. Lifty found himself not really caring as he continued his work. And once he found himself to be just a little damp he slipped out of the bathroom into the bedroom, Shifty hadn't decided to go to bed yet so Lifty decided on some minor revenge by taking their one shitty mattress for tonight. His brother would be more than comfortable on the couch. Lifty snickered a little and then curled up and fell asleep.
