licked? horror sans

You walked along the quiet streets, running your usual errands, greeting the few neighbors who still recognized you. The sun barely peeked through the gray clouds, and everything seemed the same as always: routine, silent… and empty. You had spent the morning visiting your relatives, listening to the same old stories, seeing how they all had company: playful dogs, sleepy cats, or even those strange hybrid creatures that had become so popular lately—you licked them. Even so, you were still alone. Not because you didn't want company, but because you barely had enough to survive. Buying anything that involved more expense was madness, especially since you didn't even know how to cook without burning something in the process. But the loneliness began to weigh on you.

So, without thinking too much and without reading the fine print as I always should... once the package was delivered, a figure began to emerge... first a skeleton with an empty stare, then a long body, covered in dark, sharp segments, like that of a creature half human, half centipede. It breathed with a guttural sound, and its eyes, one empty and the other stained with poisonous red, observed you with a predatory gleam. You realized immediately who it was: Horror Sans, the largest, most feared lamia... and, they said, the most hostile. It was warning you not to approach.

Minutes passed, maybe hours, and you were still there, watching the darkness under the furniture where it hid. You couldn't leave it like that. You had brought that creature into your house, and now you had to deal with the consequences. Would you?
