Wanted To Draw One Of My Favorite Characters, So I Did. If Your Interested In Seeing How This Was Drawing

I forgot about my Thieves in Time Rewrite ideas so Imma just post them here:

The story will have three major plot points: the first is the disappearance of Inspector Fox, the second is a robbery of the time travel technology by the Villains - which Sly is framed for because his calling card was left at the scene, and the third is the erasure of the Thievious Raccoonus.

Sly is obviously distraught by all of this, but Bentley, Penelope and Murray break him out of jail.

Penelope betrayal arc is scratched. Instead she helps them by staying in Paris.

Bentley recruits the original creator of the Time Travel technology, Dr. Paradox. A disgraced genius scientist and historian who was robbed of his plans by the Villains. He is going to be a crow.

The Villains are an organization simply called The Plague. You'll find out why they're called that eventually.

El Jefe is scratched. He is replaced with a japanese rabbit named Usagi.

Toothpick is kept, but he is from America instead of Russia, and has a western accent. He also doesn't get large when he's upset. That was just odd.

The Grizz is kept, he is just moved to Medieval England. Also he isn't an artist he's just a former rapper who didn't make it big.

Decibel is scratched, she is replaced with a female fennec fox who goes by the codename Oasis. Her motives are unknown, but it is rumored she was formerly with Interpol.

The levels go as followed: Feudal Japan, Old American West, Ice Age (yes I'm keeping it, you'll understand why later), Medieval England, Ancient Arabia, and back to Paris. I'm debating adding a bonus level, or making the rewrite also end on a cliffhanger and then writing a part 2.

Riochi is the same, Tennessee is the same, Bob is renamed "Kuba" (seriously? Bob? Unoriginal), Galleth is the same, and Salim is buff and younger by a few decades like the Thievious Raccoonus depicts him.

There's a huge plot twist (hint: it's an unexpected betrayal), and it's followed by another reveal.

These are the final titles of each Episode:

Episode 1: Samurai Away (play on Spirited Away)

Episode 2: Unrest in the Old West

Episode 3: The Land Before Crime

Episode 4: Kings and Thieves

Episode 5: Arabian Heists

Carmelita does reappear eventually, but NOT in the Old West. And I'm not telling you yet because Spoilers.

I don't know when I'll start this project for sure. It's going to be a huge undertaking, and once I'm done with Pillow Talk I'll probably focus on it more.

Here's a little tale about how my obsession with Sly Cooper got started... Super abridged, of course.

It actually happened right after my senior year of high school. I found it on the floor in my room one night. I decided to give it a chance...

Cue the beginning of my obsession. This happened during the summer of 2008. Before the storytelling trainwreck that is Thieves In Time ever existed.

Yes, Thieves In Time Redux is still in the works.

Yes, it is incredibly challenging to write.

No, I'm not looking forward to writing the villains' dialogue. Or the ancestors. The worst part is improvising their existing lines from the vanilla game. And giving them new lines.

Let me spell out the first act of this episode. This would consist of the first two missions.

Our three heroes tail a certain "mouse" to a place called Conquest Island. They find out she's found a new boss: Sir Raleigh, who escaped from prison a while ago. The boys don't know what their plan is, but they're going to stop it.

It's Bentley who tails this "mouse" into Raleigh's fortress, only to make a shocking discovery. He's been following a robot this entire time!

Raleigh, thinking he's already won, brings out the real Penelope to gloat to her. Turns out she's been kidnapped and impersonated.

And that impostor? Turns out it was her our heroes fought back in Medieval England. It was her who broke up with Bentley. And her who built that blimp for Le Paradox. The real Penelope is innocent.

It also turns out Raleigh has an entire Robo-Cooper Gang at the ready, and he's hoping to have everyone eventually kidnapped and turned against each other.

The villainous frog basically goes "Your name's been thoroughly ruined! Those friends of yours hate you! Why not work for me?"

Only to be told to stuff it. The real Penelope says she only wants to work for one person; that being Sly Cooper. She also hasn't forgiven her impostor for breaking Bentley's heart. She says these things knowing full well she might never be allowed back in the Cooper Gang.

Bentley, who witnessed this entire scene, orders an immediate rescue mission. When the boys find her, Penelope is terrified (thinking they're here to kill her), but she does agree to go with them after a tearful reunion.

After having Penelope reinstated, our heroes swear revenge against Raleigh for what he did to her. Bentley also takes her back.

Penelope has her life back, but... something is seriously wrong with her. And she's not talking about it.

Second act coming soon.

I want to believe Penelope was kidnapped and impersonated. She still designed the blimp. Her impostor (an evil robot) did everything else. Even her motive was fabricated.

Here's something that could happen in Sly 5.

When the boys (Sly, Bentley, and Murray) eventually find out and take her back, she's going to be a guilt-ridden mess hell-bent on destroying her impostor and her creator for breaking Bentley's heart and making everyone hate her, with several measures of self-loathing for nearly doing the same thing herself.

The reunion scene would need to happen early in the episode in which this story takes place, during the second mission, and no later. That way, the player can get used to her being fully playable for the first time ever before the boss fight.

All three boys, while elated to have Penelope back, will quickly notice that something is seriously wrong with her. They think her impostor did everything, including designing the blimp. When they ask her what's wrong, she refuses to elaborate.

Bentley is especially concerned, but incredibly proud of his reinstated girlfriend for her enduring loyalty.

Cue Penelope pulling her weight several times over during her return episode and defeating her impostor, only to be consumed by all the guilt and confess to none other than Bentley about her treachery by the end. The only thing she doesn't reveal is her motive, saying it doesn't matter because what she did was wrong.

And because I love a good, happy ending, she will be forgiven. She's already spent the entire episode proving herself in spades. As for Sly and Murray's reactions? I'll leave that for you to decide. Would Sly drive himself crazy over not knowing her motive? I think he might.

I realize she will need a very sympathetic motive for this idea to work.

'Dynamic Duo' is a decent mission in an otherwise lacklustre episode, but what i really love about it is how much it develops Penelope's character. from giving her a cutie health metre (and by extent establishing lavender purple as her signature colour. iconic) to having the targets look like pieces of cheese because y'know she's a mouse

Nobody touches that turtle… but me!
