Really dumb of me to ask but like…you think Penelope just has cheese lying around Holland/Maybe the safe house for “totally landing purposes. I don’t drag these into the safe house/my castle and lie awake at night eating it questioning my life chocies so far.”
Penelope lying on the futon Bentley set up for her at the back of the safehouse after wolfing down a barrel of gruyere, questioning if this is what 'women in STEM' means
a few of my favorite sly characters
i wanted to draw dimitri, but i suck at drawing him. i drew him like once really good and later it just sucked nehehe. i needa practice.
Today’s mouse is Penelope from Sly Cooper!
For those of you who picked Sly to still fight Le Paradox, don't worry. I already have a solution. Sly still gets to participate.
Let's first set the stage for Episode 6. Penelope has been keeping her secret of betrayal all game. She also underwent a change of heart. At the end of last episode, Le Paradox outed her. This happened right when Sly, Bentley, and Murray's trust in her was at an all time high.
Thankfully, by the time this reveal happens, Penelope has already finished her march towards heroism and refuses the skunk's offer to rejoin him.
The boys are furious with Penelope. But she has a chance to redeem herself... if she behaves during the blimp raid. She doesn't think she'll be allowed to stay if she simply does as she's told, so she does them one better... and volunteers herself as mission leader.
Who better to lead our heroes to victory than the blimp's chief designer herself? It does take a bit of convincing, but Bentley, Murray, and Sly in that order do end up agreeing.
You all remember what else happened at the end of Episode 5: Carmelita's kidnapping.
Near the end of the rescue mission, Penelope feels a need to pursue the villain of this story. In her mind, she can definitely finish atoning for everything she did if she defeats him... all by herself. If she doesn't (or can't) do it alone, her attempt won't count. She gives chase. Bentley in particular tries to convince her not to, but his pleas fall on deaf ears. She gives him one last kiss before running off in tears.
Cue the final boss fight. Penelope vs. Le Paradox. Over the course of their duel, the skunk says a few things to make her lose her focus...
"Those friends of yours will never forgive you, even if you can take me down!"
"Why do you bother trying to redeem yourself? It's hopeless!"
"You'd be much better off if you rejoined me. Just in case your precious friends don't take you back. I'll be your friend."
Of course, our heroine tells him to stuff it. She'd rather die a hero than live long enough to betray her friends again.
And then... Penelope gets disarmed. Knocked down. The villain nearly gets his chance to finish her off... only for Sly Cooper to jump in and save her. Turns out he heard most of that conversation.
This wasn't what she wanted... Now her attempt won't count! But Sly says that's not how redemption works. She is allowed to ask for help.
Like the heroes they are, Sly and Penelope double team the villain, and are soon joined by Bentley, Murray, Carmelita, and the ancestors.
With her morale restored, Penelope takes it upon herself to finish the skunk off. Complete with a speech on what she learned about friendship.
The game ends with Sly not getting lost in time, and Penelope staying with her friends.
Just played Sly 3 again and I had to draw something I’ve wanted to draw for years: The entire Gang squeezed in the van
featuring my redesigns that you can see fully here
Penelope no you’re not supposed to eat meat raw.
a gift for murray!
Sly 3 Comic: “A Girl in the Safe House”
Did you ever wonder how the Sly Gang adjusted to having a girl in their Man Cave for the first time ever? Well, now you know! I can totally see Murray going over the top to try and be welcoming/friendly to her, Bentley being all awkward in trying to court her, and Sly being the poor schmuck caught in the middle.
Nobody touches that turtle… but me!
remember when you didn’t want to punch penelope in the face?
yeah, lets go back to that.
