Charly weaseled his way to the office. So far so good. He opened the door and froze when he hit something. The door was opened and he was staring at Scarface himself. This darn bad luck stuck like tar!

I like "weaseled"! It's a good use of the prompt and a strong word choice in general, giving the aspect of sneaking and cunning. I wasn't sure if this was supposed to be the story of known characters. I googled Scarface but didn't find any references to a Charly. Maybe if I watched more gangster movies I'd get the reference.


There is no real connection between Charly and Al Capone. He is an absolute fictional caracter.
Thanks :lol:

I liked the gangster vibe in this. The two almost identical phrases involving the door used up words though. You could've given us more story with those. :-)

You are right. The second phrase was not really necessary. I have to admit that I did not notice it until now.
Thanks! :lol:
