Bentley and Penelope’s kids
I thought it would be fun to try designing what Bentley and Penelope’s kids might look like (and just ignore the fact that it’s a biological impossibility for turtles and mice to make babies together LOL)
Sly: “I aim to misbehave.”
Bentley: “It’s a real burn, being right all the time.”
Murray: “Well they tell you: never hit a man with a closed fist. But it is, on occasion, hilarious.”
Carmelita: “Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.”
Neyla: “Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!”
Penelope: “I can kill you with my brain.”
Dimitri: “Your mouth is talking. You might wanna look to that.”
Riochi: “I’m a leaf on the wind. Watch how I soar.”
Tennessee: “If anyone gets nosy just...y’know, shoot em.” “Shoot em?” “Politely.”
Bob: “Shiny.”
Galleth: “Time for some thrilling heroics.”
Salim: “Is that him?” “That’s the buffet table.” “...Well how can we be sure, unless we question it?”
Feel free to add more characters/alternative quotes.
Clenched fists and knuckles turning white.
Eyes narrowing to slits, brows furrowed.
Jaw muscles tensing visibly.
Speaking through gritted teeth.
Taking deep, sharp breaths.
Pacing back and forth, unable to stay still.
Pointing a finger accusingly.
Voice raising to a shout or a growl.
Kicking or punching nearby objects.
Lips pressed together in a thin line.
Rapid, agitated movements.
Slamming doors or throwing objects.
Standing with arms crossed tightly.
Glaring intensely without blinking.
Face turning red or flushed.
Breathing heavily and erratically.
Snapping at others for minor things.
Shaking with barely contained rage.
Muttering or growling under their breath.
Eyes blazing with fury.
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.
Hello! I haven't been able to been able to be as active on tumblr lately because online school is ahhhhh but. For a random Sly Cooper headcanon: after the events of Sly 3, Penelope and Bentley both study the Thievious Raccoonus. Penelope learns how to do a bunch of master thief moves like spire jumps and railwalks and becomes "the new Sly"
That’s okay!!!!!! I don’t wanna pressure you!!!!
Penelope also tried learning shadow power, but being a bright white mouse it didn’t really work out…

“I hate hate haaaate Penelope’s TiT look but honestly the one image we get of her in the prologue with her OG outfit in that style is super cute. Though it just makes me even more annoyed that they changed it.“

Just another “Platonic OT3” scene of these guys living their “normal” lives post Sly 3.
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.
Props to Bentley for driving from all the way from the jungles of the Bengal region of India to Prague in Sly 2, that is an insane drive. That is crossing through 8 countries, 4 time-zones, two continents and over 8,500 km. Non-stop, it would’ve taken him almost 5 days.
And he did that all without knowing at first how to drive stick.
Like look at how far that is. I know that’s only up to Lahore but I couldn’t get a drive route that’d go into India and I assume that has to due with the nature of driving through the Indian-Pakistani border. That’s also passing through some rugged terrain and some unforgiving weather conditions too.
