Penelope!
OMG I love her ^_^
Why I like them: Adorkable, nerdy, sweet, smart, kind of witty in her own way
Why I don’t: Does not fight a lot, I understand that her forte is RC gadgets, but she gets in trouble a lot.
Favorite episode: Flight of Fancy, China episode (names escape me) and Dead Men tells no Tales
Favorite season: Spring
Favorite line: “No one touches that turtle, but me…”
Favorite outfit: Her typical yellow sweater and overalls, pirate dress and lab suit in the new game
OTP: With Bentley. Love them 8-ever
Brotp: Hhm, she gets along nicely with the gang, probably Murray, he’s the friendliest :)
Head Canon: Sanest of the couple (i’d imagine Bentley getting too egotistical), stays quiet and acts grumpy once a month. Her last name is “Benneke” (I looked up Dutch last names)
Unpopular opinion: Probably that early after Sly 3’s release, she wasn’t very well liked by the fans back in 2005.
A wish: Not much except her to be back and more involved (does not have to outshine the gang)
An oh-god-please-don’t-ever-happen: Forever disappeared or forgotten or demoted to extra or breaking up with Bentley
5 words to best describe them:
My nickname for them: Penny, Mrs.Wiseturtle X) (let this be canon in the future)
penelope doodles!! she definitely awakened my love of techy ladies
trying to find a consistent way of drawing her with … some limited success?? in my sly she looks basically the same as her sly 3 design but she’s kinda scrappier and also probably has adhd because i must project
breaking through loooong art block and experimenting with a looser line art style (a bit inconsistently here) and i think i might not hate it actually
still gonna set up that discord group i’ve talked about btw!!! just been struggling with bad internet and some health stuff hhhhh
Here’s your intermittent reminder that Penelope the mouse
is introduced as explicitly a better RC specialist than Bentley
a top-tier engineer and mechanic
so good at dogfighting than when she became a combat pilot “at a young age” she was instantly elevated to celebrity status
very convincing at pretending to be a different age and gender???
apparently wasn’t lying about being a trained boxer
can hack pretty good
easily matches and contends with Bentley’s intellect and could, therefore, plan heists pretty good
just fuckin picked up a sword and used it to murder a guy who had dedicated his life to being an old-timey pirate captain, and, by extension, swordfighting.
Penelope could kick the ass of the collective Cooper Gang at any point and the only reason she doesn’t is to be polite
"I want to know more about Penelope's past, before the Black Baron. Would she be an orphan, or would her Dutch mouse parents still be around? Would they be supportive of their little girl genius, or worried sick?"
Confessed by: Anonymous
Bentley = sniping & typing
Murray = punching & munching
Carmelita = tailing & jailing
Sly = thieving………………………. & grieving. :(
I’ve always wanted to draw Penelope. So I did.
Sanzaru looked at the silly one-off joke in Sly 3 where Penelope badly photoshops herself into a sexy femme fatale, and were like….‘what if we did that but For Real’
Spoiler alert: Penelope is not straight up evil in this fanfiction. I don't want to reveal her motive for "siding" with him until I finish Episode 0 of the story... That would be Chapters 1-6. In case you forgot, Episode 0 covers the Paris museum heist.
Honestly speaking, rewriting a story as janked up as Thieves In Time is anything but easy.
For those of you who have liked my little behind the scenes blog, thank you. I really hope I can do these characters justice, because Sanzaru sure didn't.
I know, this one's a bit overdone.
