Bentley: This plan isn't risky at all!
Also him: All I need to do is get really close to this wolf with these smelly darts...
Let's do a meme starring our very own Sly Cooper for a change... This happens during Episode 3, right after Carmelita comes back...
Sly does this after taking advice from Bentley to be more honest with Carmelita. He takes that advice. It backfires. Horribly.
Guess what? Penelope gets to see them fighting. Again. Another peek into that dark future. She does not want her relationship with Bentley to turn into whatever those two are doing. If you've been paying attention, she's just gone through her change of heart by now.
Our heroine then decides to keep her secret of betrayal... Kind of like what Sly tried to do with Carmelita... That's not going to blow up in her face at all!
me: draws my mouse dortor because she is too pure for this world and i love her
I haven’t used pencil crayons in so long. Drew Penelope, just cuz her redesign was really cute, even with all the shit that happened.
Here's a super abridged recap of my rewrite of Thieves In Time...
Prologue: Penelope is revealed to still be behind the events of the game. She nearly gets kidnapped, foolishly tells Bentley about it in a panic, then gets roped into joining Sly, Bentley, and Murray for the whole game. She enters the game keeping a dark secret of betrayal.
Paris Tutorial: Joins Bentley in the sewers. They get separated, she gets her own segment. She saves his skin as they reunite.
Turning Japanese: Does her tasks to avoid looking sus. Tries to go rogue during Altitude Sickness. Runs into Sly and El Jefe's duel, then decides to help Sly. Also gets scolded for running off. Her secret is safe.
Go West, Young Raccoon: Manages to save Bentley's skin twice; once during Cooper For Hire, and again during Jail Break. Also gets to see Carmelita tearing Sly a new one, making her see a dark future for her and Bentley. Secret is still safe.
Clan Of The Cave Raccoon: Gets very sick, sees the error of her ways. Sees Sly and Carmelita not getting along, doesn't want the same thing for her and Bentley. Resolves to become a team player. Secret is still safe.
Of Frogs And Mechs: Sir Raleigh is revealed to be behind Penelope's botched kidnapping. She also has a robotic impostor. His men kidnap her. She mostly frees herself, and she gets to fight her impostor and Raleigh. She also gets closer to Bentley. Secret is still safe.
40 Thieves: Spends the whole episode pulling her weight and then some. Le Paradox reveals her secret of betrayal during All Rolled Up just when she's starting to feel like a true member of the team again. She refuses to rejoin the skunk. Her secret is out.
Paris Epilogue: Leads the raid on Le Paradox's blimp, then starts the final boss fight. Nearly loses before the rest of the playable cast comes in to help. Gives a speech on what she learned about friendship and takes Le Paradox down.
Aftermath: Tries to leave the Cooper Gang out of guilt, only to be forgiven. The game ends with her still on their roster. She and Bentley are also engaged.
Let's all just pretend this is what actually happened instead of the hot mess that was vanilla Thieves In Time.
Feel free to make as much fanart for this project as you want. I'm no artist; just a writer with big ideas.
a gift for murray!
“I feel like we tend to forget that even if the persona was fake, Penelope-as-the-Baron was still totally able to fight Sly on the side of a moving airplane without much effort and punch hard enough to throw him back. How the heck did she get kidnapped? I feel like she could have coldcocked Lefwee in three seconds, looted his wallet, and bailed.“

"I for one love the Penelope twist. The twist of her being the Black Baron, that is!"
