In any other scenario, he wouldn't hesitate to wail on these guys, but... dammit, Marshmallow. He hesitates, then tosses the letter opener away to the side.]
You hurt him, and you're as good as dead.
[WHAT ASSHOLES PREY ON SMALL, DEFENSELESS ANIMALS?
Slowly, he starts backing up, leaving the door open.]
[Tsk. He can hear Jason even from this side. His own gun only has the one bullet in it. Sounds like they're against more than just the person in the front.]
I'm gonna hide ya, okay? Stay safe.
[Into a closed cabinet for Ben. Probably best to have both hands for this.]
[The two people walk in, one of them pulling out a gun just in case. No funny movements, Jason!! But if Jason doesn't make any sudden movements, they're going to start looting the place, never letting go of Marshmallow despite the cat's struggles.]
Anyone else in here? You better show yourself!
[Speaking of which, over with Bradley, Ben lets out a protest.]
[HE'S NOT! CHILL, BURGLARS! Are these the fucking burglars they should have waited on in the museum to get rid of, stopping this from happening?! HE HATES THIS BUTTERFLY EFFECT SHIT! He sort of follows them as they go because he assumes they don't want him wandering out of sight.]
Why don't you put the gun down and let the cat go?
[This isn't really an attempt to get them to drop the gun actually.
...But if Bradley didn't get the hell out of dodge like he almost wishes, then Bradley will maybe hear that there's a gun involved and not be too stupid.]
[You wanna get STOLEN AGAIN, BEN? This could still happen.
Bradley's rifle is on his strap, his hands are up, and he's still standing in front of the cabinet. There's still people at the back door, so now they're all boxed in.]
Here.
[Is there anything distinctive about these burglars? What are they stealing? Art pieces? Did they take the letter opener? Anything that they can get their hands on? Do they have a bag to carry all of their loot?
Does the guy with a gun look like they know what they're doing with it? Is the safety locked?]
[They're not releasing the cat. :/ Anyway, they're taking whatever looks valuable, stuffing it into a bag. They did, in fact, take the letter opener. The one holding the gun looks confident enough with it, pointing it at Jason, and the safety is off.
Once they feel that they've sufficiently robbed enough items, they'll begin backing towards the door.]
Anyway, Jason is immensely worried about Marshmallow. He doesn't care about any of the other stuff. It's material. He doesn't give two shits about whatever they're taking. But... the idea they think they can just? come into his house? and hold his people hostage? and wave a gun around? and be smug about it?
Something very angry curls up in him. He does not exactly plan, and he does not really think about it. This is not unlike him. So quickly, he jumps after the one with Marshmallow and the knife; he's so fast. He reaches for their wrist with one hand, and with the other, he pulls a stun gun out of the inside of his jacket. He's going to try lighting this asshole up.
Anyway no, Bradley's not going to get involved in this, because this is three people in a melee fight AND a cat. Trying to shoot into that without magic is too much of a risk.]
[Well. Good news is that Jason successfully lights this asshole up! Before he goes down, however, he tosses Marshmallow at the burglar with the gun, who grabs the cat and runs out of the house with him. Apparently, there is no sense of loyalty here towards their fallen ally.]
Shit!
[Bradley will also probably hear the other people outside fleeing. With the door open, both Jason and Bradley can both hear a cry coming from the decapitated Albamanny, no longer muffled.]
Marshmallow!! No!!!
[Meanwhile, Ben, unable to move far from the cabinet, is also yelling.]
Like the other thief, he abandons the zapped one on the floor and just runs out of the door after the other one and the rest of them, even if they probably are going to just drive away or something. HE IS STILL RUNNING. HE CARES ABOUT MARSHMALLOW!
Sorry to Bradley and to Ben. This icon but not smiling.]
[The thieves... do not have a car, apparently. They are just running off into the distance with Marshmallow, so Jason may pursue. They're running in the direction of the field where Jason and Bradley met the snowman and cat duo.
Bradley will hear Albamanny continue to sob outside over the abduction of Marshmallow. He can go through the thief's pockets, but it doesn't seem like he has much besides, like, the knife and a gun.
This is fine for Jason. He's white so he was wearing shoes in the house like an insane person, and all he has to do is peel out through the snow after them.]
Drop the cat! If anything happens to him, every single one of you will regret it!
[He would shoot if he had a gun... But it's fine. Hopefully if he follows, Bradley will know where they went.]
Bradley takes the knife and the gun. Since he's also an insane person who thinks shoes indoors is a reasonable choice, he's running after Jason. The prints should still be there, even with the snow falling.]
Anyway, the thieves ignore Jason. The footprints are still there, so Bradley may follow. Running across the field, the thieves seem to be headed towards a frozen lake.]
[It is a very large lake! It's surrounded by trees and rocks and whatnot; you get the sense that if this were an RPG, it would be one without the ability to jump and those things would probably block movement on the map.
Anyway, the thieves begin running across this frozen lake, with nowhere else to go.]
[Why the HELL are these idiots being stupid with THEIR CAT? He cannot stand them. He will maybe kill every one of these guys and become his old, canon self.
At the edge of the lake, he stops without running out over the ice because he is not a moron. There are too many of them on it, too. He's worried about the cat, though. I hate the description of this lake.]
[Jason crawls... but as he gets partway across the lake, closer to Marshmallow, the ice cracks underneath him. Furthermore, the ice begins to crack around where Marshmallow is standing, as he lets out a distressed meow.

Marshmallow?!
no subject
If you want your cat back so badly, come and get it!
[Slowly, they back away, escaping off the ice in the opposite direction of Jason and Bradley before running off. Bye.
Terrified and staring down at this SLIPPERY GROUND, Marshmallow yowls.]
no subject
Stay here because I might need you if the ice breaks. If it does, don't walk on it upright. You're going to have to slide on it on your stomach.
[He gets down on the ground at the edge of the lake where the ice starts... and sort of starts army crawling carefully across it?]
no subject
[But fine, he will sit down in the snow with Ben and watch Jason get their cat back.
Or die. I guess.]

Jason...!?
[What now?]
no subject
He stops his crawl on the ice, not moving.]
Marshmallow, you’re going to have to come to me, buddy. Come on. Come here.
[Stretch arm out desperately!!!]
It’s okay. You’re light.
[He is 200 lbs on the other hand.]
