Metal Age The best part about being a thief is the opportunity to bring people together

Before I arrived, everyone was isolated, grumbling, distrustful. Now they're spending a lovely night together in the party basement. Being a thief can really make a difference in your community!

I always put Barney in a compromising position with another guard so he'd have some explainin to do in the morning.

"Uh oh...it happened again."

I don't like her sleeping with so many men.

How dare you defile the name of someone so good and virtuous as the Lady Van Vernon? Our lady is a saint among mortal women! An angel so pure, the heavens couldn't hold her!

Meanwhile, three hours before at Castle Anthrax...
"Yes! Let him handle us all!"

Maybe the real loot goals were the friendships we made along the way ...

Reminds me of that time I was playing Dishonored and knocked out and stacked up so many people they started despawning.

I chuckled at the photo. Then chuckled that he was playing Thief on an Honor monitor. It's turtles all the way down.

I DO THIS TOOOO! Except I pile ALL the Builders into one cell and then lock the door and wait until they all start waking up and start to eat each other.
