Arpeggio only desires to succeed in his mysterious, large-scale criminal scheme. However, this becomes difficult to achieve when a pair of his hired workers decide they want to befriend him. But friendship has no place in his plan. That's what he keeps telling himself, anyway. Birds of a Feather is a Sly Cooper fanfiction that is focused on canon and oc interaction. It retells the behind-the-scenes events of Sly 2: Band of Thieves from Arpeggio's perspective, additionally being thrown into a modern setting. It is an AU (alternative universe) story, not only with the addition of non-canon characters, but also through storytelling: some events from the game are not in perfect sequence and characters' motives have been altered, among other things. It was developed and written for Camp NaNo in the summer of 2017. It was partially rewritten and edited for NaNoWriMo November-December. It was published online January of 2018.
