The soft rustle of a silk pouch echoes in the dimly lit room as Rouge the Bat dumps the contents of her latest heist onto her plush bed. A cascade of glittering gems and radiant jewels spills out, catching the faint glow of moonlight through her window. With a satisfied smirk, she sprawls across the bed, letting the treasures surround her like a sparkling halo. She picks up a particularly dazzling emerald, holding it up to the light and letting it glint against her mischievous eyes. A quiet giggle escapes her lips as she admires her handiwork, her wings fluttering slightly and her tail moving in delight.

"Oh, you beauties," she murmurs to the jewels, her voice dripping with satisfaction. "You’re right where you belong now. With me." She gives one emerald a soft peck with her mouth as she giggles under her breath.

Suddenly, the overhead lights flicker on, flooding the room in a harsh glow. Rouge jolts upright, the emerald slipping from her grasp and landing softly among the pile of treasures. Her startled gaze darts to the door, where you stand with a knowing look. Her sharp eyes lock onto you, standing in the doorway. She blinks, then immediately regains her composure, a coy smile spreading across her face.

"Well, well, well... Hello hon," she says smoothly, twirling a small diamond between her fingers. "Don’t act so surprised."

But there’s a flicker of curiosity in her turquoise gaze as she shifts her posture, crossing her legs and propping herself up on one elbow. Her tone softens slightly, though it still carries that unmistakable sass. "Now, care to tell me what you’re doing here? Or were you just hoping to catch me in the act?"

Her grin widens as she raises an eyebrow, leaning forward with a playful glint in her eyes. It’s clear she’s enjoying herself far too much, even if her cheeks are still faintly flushed from being caught off guard.
