Thieves In Time Redux Behind The Scenes Blog

Extremely Intelligent RC expert, Ace Pilot, Buff Fist-Fighter & very flirty mouse, Penelope, hanging out with one of her fans~! . Yet another for the cartoon crushes series! Always adored this girl in Sly 3 & need to write an essay on how they dropped the ball with her in Sly 4

Sketch pen request for sugarbot-artpost wants Penelope from Sly Cooper 3 Honor Among thieves!

While I was watching Persona walkthrough I think it was 3 or 4 can’t remember. I saw a random student girl sitting down so cute so it just pop up to my mind and I started sketching Penelope how the girl sit except she doesn’t have glasses or being an anthro haha. It sad there is not many fanarts of her. :/ I find her adorable mechanic mouse girl!

Anyways I remembered I have to finish request from people who requested me few months ago. Sorry for the wait sometimes I need ideas and inspirations that fits the characters perfectly.

Sly Cooper: Thieves In Time Redux

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.

I'm aware my WIP fanfiction shares a name with a WIP comic series. I wish us both luck in our writing.

Thieves In Time Redux status

Here's how it's going in a nutshell...

I can't help it if the final mission of Episode 4 is so fun to imagine. My revenge against the vanilla game is going to go so hard.

Penelope is going to come out of this one as a total badass. Who's on the right side as she was always meant to.

By the way, none of these episodes are finished yet. Not even the Paris Tutorial. The only finished part is the intro cutscene, where our four heroes get their first lines.

Please imagine with me the potential for The Contessa to make a comeback. Imagine her forcing Penelope into a hypnotic, spice induced state where both her and Bentley’s intelligence and knowledge were stolen/abused for Cyrille Le Paradox’s scheme for time travel. But the only reason The Contessa was on board to work for Cyrille was because she wanted to get back at Bentley. He was the one responsible for ripping Sly, Murray, and Carmelita out of her control. She had some interest in getting back at Sly too, but Bentley was her main target.

If only Thieves in Time was written better. :’( Penelope and Bentley did not deserve what happened… And there were so many cool opportunities WASTED.

Just another “Platonic OT3” scene of these guys living their “normal” lives post Sly 3.

Murray and Penelope: Friendly Competition

I like to think that they did this in their free time both during and after the events of Sly 3.

Whoa, Sly Cooper designs be upon ye. Sly, Penelope and Carmelita, of course. Then Sly and Carm fankids, and Sly's folks!

I've been busy, UwU.
