Maybe not directly joining the Cooper Gang right away (if anything I feel like she'd initially become a bounty hunter working on the lighter side of ThiefNet rather than leaping in with the gang), but what would it take both in terms of narrative development and circumstances to push her there? Long term, just just enemy-mine or a really bad idea with hypnosis (which is also a good read IMO - and it recognizes the disturbing potential of the premise in-narrative) Obviously, most of the framing for Sly and Carmelita ever getting together is Sly figuring out how to mesh with her being INTERPOL - hence the whole "amnesia" thing - but what would it take for Carmelita to jump ship instead? Willingly and by her own choice, that is. So, rewatched some things on a lark, read an interesting rewrite of 2 and 3 (the one for 3 goes even more off the rails with things like Mugshot actually turning away from crime, though it is also rated Mature so no direct link), and I had a thought. Weird idea? Maybe but it’s one that immediately popped up when I came across this thread honestly. Basically the uncharted games but with Benjamin and other characters anthropomorphic versions of themselves. The other idea and really my first when it comes to this topic is more of a react fic where the gang and maybe even the villains watching his adventures. While at the same time keeping the secret that he’s the future son of the Sly and Carmelita. He helps along on their jobs and with intel gathering, thanks to his knowledge in multiple archaic languages. One idea of this is that the time machine shorts out after a battle against one of the bosses and Benjamin (that’s the name I constantly see the fandom call him) pops out. A thief that also hunts for long lost treasure. And funnily enough, every time I think about what kind of thief Sly’s son would be. Where sly sees the adventures of his son as a thief. Ever since thieves in time came out, I’ve always thought of the cooper gang seeing the future.
