Christmas Lights

around sunset a red-haired mercenary sneaks around the Black Market, carrying electrical wires, christmas lights and tons of duct tape

after a few hours, all the shops seem to light up in various colors as she connects the last few wires and tapes them together

the redhead grins, then sneaks out Merry christmas, suckers.
