    Summary

    “It’s a courtesy in this business, you know,” Narrator said, casually. “Typically people do it with a monologue, you know, 'we were hired by your enemies', or 'did you know how much your head’s going for on the market', that kind of thing, meant to make us worry about who’s closing in on us, or how well-funded they are, what else they’re willing to pull and so on.”

    Confidence wavering ever-so-slightly, she asked: “Really?”

    “No, he’s full of shit.” Stanley said before he could catch himself.

    -
    Business is going extremely well for the Special Acquisitions department, which is great for their egos but terrible for staying out of trouble. Curator practices trusting other people, difficult as it may be. Mariella has time to think about what kind of person she wants to become. Narrator presses on like nothing's changed - if he keeps going forward, he'll never have to face his past.

    Stanley realizes, too late, how little he really knows about Narrator.

    It's a workday like any other, like every other. A simple question as the minutes tick down:

    What time is it?

    Summary

    Silly Slice of Life Moments in the Superthieves AU... That aren't hard canon or anything because I mostly wrote these as silly little snippets for the discord friends. They'll be a grab bag of seasonal prompts or gag prompts, so this is more for fun than a serious contribution or anything.

    Note! This is for my Superthieves AU, so if you're unfamiliar with that series, these will be kinda confusing ^^;

    Summary

    “Now. While we’re being honest: What do you have in your mouth, Narrator?”

    Narrator spun the wheel of options in his head, but impulse selected the most instinctual: he shoved the petals to the back of his mouth and swallowed them with an obvious, almost cartoonish gulp.

    “I-” Narrator cleared his throat. “I don’t know what you mean, Curie?”

    It wasn’t the most unimpressed Curator had looked, but it certainly made the top ranks.

    -

    Set in the Superthieves AU except hanahaki, that flower-coughing sickness, exists, and we answer once and for all if Narrator would indeed die before admitting he had a feeling.

    Summary

    (Part of the Superthieves AU and won’t make much sense outside of it, sorry)
    Sometimes a song really speaks to you. Sometimes, they’re totally unrelated but are just fun and cathartic to sing. Sometimes, they’re vessels for painful memories. But just because a memory is painful, doesn’t mean you want to let it slide. Today's a very important day.

    Or: Narrator dissociates in a Karaoke booth for 2 hours.

    Summary

    "I think you’re missing what Curator wanted out of you. You managed to walk out of her museum with something you shouldn’t have, and I suspect hiring you was more about giving you motive not to do that again than anything else.”

    Stanley considered this, and concluded: “You’re just mad she dragged you back to work, aren’t you?”

    Narrator said, “Curator is paying us both very generously,” and that seemed to be addressed to himself as much as it was to Stanley.

    -

    If you have super powers, why not don a mask and cause some trouble?
    Unfortunately, Stanley robbed the wrong museum, and now he's being put to work in the 'Special Acquisitions' department, stealing objects of great importance or power from private collectors and bringing them back to the safety and security of his new employer's museum.

    Narrator has been trying to quit this type of work for years now, and yet, here he is. He's here to support and train the reckless new agent, and good god he already needs a raise.

    (Despite it all, Mariella is still here.)

    Summary

    The unthinkable happened. Stanley was in the control room, the clock was in his hand and in a swift motion he brought it down-

    And the Narrator woke up bound to a chair in a strange, glitching room. He was (for want of a better phrase) missing time, and the only way to get it back was to trust his former project with his mind.

    Why the hell would he do that?

    Summary

    Stanley is a professional thief with the power to spring back to life unharmed when he dies. It's an ability that he's far too casual with, if you ask Narrator.

    In honour of *checks calendar* the Ides of March, here's a sidestory fic about guys getting stabbed. May not make sense if you haven't read at least a little bit of This Belongs In A Museum!

    Summary

    You like your crew. You really, really do. But there were some days, honestly, where you just cannot deal with them, and some days where you need someone to vent to who could just take it without trying to help at all.

    After that thought, for some weird reason, you find yourself standing outside of Snooping Scout’s apartment building. Eh, why not?

    Summary

    Causing crime in this city is a real BLAST. It can really get a guy WIRED to BLOW off the law so flippantly. The trick is planning your crimes so you get the biggest BANG for your buck, as they say, even when a certain meddlesome group of freelance investigators EXPLODE on to the scene to put a DAMPER on your fun. Yep! There's no way this heist is going to be a DUD, that's for sure!

    Better yet, if you give those investigators an early DISCHARGE, you can bet business will be BOOMING afterwards!

    Summary

    It was a distastefully spontaneous raid on the felt mansion, as far as Diamonds Droog was concerned, but he was going to make the best of it. He had fallen into a rhythm of shooting a lock, kicking in the door, and filling the room with bullets, when one door did not give. He expected to find something expensive, yet not valuable enough to be in a metal vault. Something to either steal or destroy. In a way, he wasn’t wrong.

    He just didn’t expect it in the form of a young girl.

    Summary

    The Midnight Crew pay a personal visit to the latest arrivals in town. Supposedly, there were some kind of crime-fighting snoops, and if that was true, they needed to know where they could and could not stick their noses. No problem at all.
