Hey, thought you might like to know I ended up writing another scene for the Inspector Cooper AU. I'm adding this and the other one to the wiki
( ... )
So they don't remember their "evil world" lives and personalities once Sly fixes them? That actually makes things a lot simpler storywise.
However, I like to think they remember some of it. Mainly because I just started drawing a scene where Penelope gets upset when she realizes that restoring the proper timeline will erase the friendship she and Carmelita have built in the "bad" timeline
( ... )
The episode is intensely sad and romantic.Oh dude, I have seen that episode and it's one of my favorite X-men episodes too. It always makes me teary eyed when AU Storm and Logan hugged each other and have one last kiss before they go back to the old timeline. I say run with it
( ... )
And I like the idea of Penelope being reluctant, especially since in the AU she was arrest by Inspector Cooper and course Murry and Bently are crime lords here. (Just imagine the angst for Bently when he finally sees Penelope, but it's not "HIS" Penelope.)
After reading your scene, I imagined Bentley running to hug Penelope when he sees her (he'd probably assume that, if she's hanging with Normal-Sly, than her memories were restored before his) and she immediately screams, pushes him away, and tells Carmelita & Sly that they're INSANE for dragging "that lunatic" into their hideout. And then finding out he's supposed to be her boyfriend will just strengthen her resolve to not let Sly "fix" her.
Also, we finished Sly 3 last night and it was good. I LOVED the part of Bently and Penelope getting together. It was so cute and natural. She looked so cute in that pirate outfit too.
"No one touches that turtle....but ME...yeah, that line is just so badass! It totally caught me off guard the first time I played it as a teen! XD
( ... )
And it made him realize that, if he REALLY loved Carmelita and wanted to be with her, he'd need to make some serious changes in his life.
Totally and you now, for me it wasn't just that scene. You know how while in Italy there was that whole pasta joke of Sly asking Bently "Do you think there's more to life? Like we're missing out on something?"
I know it was suppose to be a joke, and it was funny, but it got Stu and I wondering if perhaps Sly was hinting he was getting tired of the thieving life all together. With that said, I still don't like that Sly 4 begins with Sly plotting a theft because he was bored.
To me, considering what we saw in Sly 3, it makes more sense character wise if Sly was unwillingly dragged into being a thief like how we would do it in the Sly 4 AU. But that's just me.

( ... )
So, a thought struck me. In the final levels, Sly got in the biplane for a sky battle. One question might be - why wasn't Penelope the one flying the plane?
I think the answer is: because she didn't want to. The whole black baron thing had kind of spiraled out of her control, and I think she wanted out of the air combat game. Besides which - Sly beat her in that arena, you could make an argument for him being the better fighter pilot. (She wins at remote-control everything.)
And as a followup, one of the Cooper ancestors was a flying ace - maybe the Thievius Raccoonius had a few tips in it?...

Funny you should mention that. The fact that the player was never allowed to control Penelope in a dogfight always bugged me (mainly because her piloting skill was half the reason they recruited her). So I recently drew a comic to try and justify why Sly flew in the Dr M bi-plane mission instead of her (WARNING! The comic REALLY sappy!):
