Summary
Prison never would've been Scott's vacation of choice. The food is bad, the clothes are hideous, and worst of all, he has very little time for his true passion: thievery. But now that he's newly free after three years, he has plans for something big, and he knows he can't do it alone.
Cleo is trying her best to be content. Her gang, the Crastle, is one of the most feared in the city and she has a decent stake in the city's illicit trade of magic. Things are good, if monotonous. But that might just change after she receives a visit from an old friend, and an offer she can't refuse.
Pearl swears up and down that her life isn't a mess. She finally has a normal job and normal friends, and she's only mildly paranoid. She also swore that she'd never do another heist again, but that was before Scott found her, and dragged her back into the past she wanted to leave behind.
One last job. That was the promise. How hard could it be?
— ☆ —
TL;DR - A 1920s fantasy AU in which Scott, Pearl, and Cleo are a team of thieves.Series

Summary
Starling City is corrupt, and yes, Oliver knew that when he came back with his mission - but not the sheer extent of it! The Glades are in danger, the citizens are desperate, the leadership is running scared, and there’s something sinister lurking in the background. Oliver is under increasing pressure to back down - in both his personal life and as the Hood. When everyone starts painting him as mentally disturbed (to put it politely!), sometimes the best way to save the city is to think outside the box … and pull a heist.
Because who would be better at it than OTA? We have the Charismatic Mastermind (Check); The Unstoppable Tech Genius (Check, double check); The Calm & Collected Getaway Driver ... er... hmm ... maybe (Hold that thought)

Summary
"It’s a two-day job — a day’s travel there and back, and we pull the job overnight. It’ll be a long couple a’days.”
“That’s fine.”
“It’s on you to sort an alibi and cover your ass up at the castle.”
“Yeah, yeah, I’ll get it sorted, old man!” Eiko slaps her hands flat on the table and stands up on her chair to lean forward more, ignoring Baku’s guffaw. “What’s the job, already?”
Baku turns to the side and sneezes, then looks up at Eiko with a grin. “We’re gonna rob the King’s estate.”Tantalus enlists Eiko's help with a heist that ends up carrying far more weight for her than she ever imagined.

Summary
There's nothing Will enjoys more than taking a pompous rich asshole for a ride, preferably leaving the mark fleeced of every valuable by the end of it.
And then he's roped into taking on Dr. Hannibal Lecter, handsome rich socialite. And clearly a man who's hiding at least a few dark secrets.

Can be read without knowing Leverage (though if you don't, what are you doing? It's such a good show!)

Summary
Out from the helicopter stepped Mime Bomb, tall and slender as ever. Normally, his painted face mostly just looked ridiculous. But under the distant light of the jungle moon, he appeared downright horrifying. The Mime was not alone: worse terrors were behind him. Shadows began to spill from the clunky mode of transport, and it took Carmen a moment to recognize them as people. In seconds, the landing site was teeming with shady figures clad in variations of the all-too-familiar stealth suit. Vile Ops, and nearly a dozen of them. Some, she recognized from her year or the ones before. Others were new, younger and fresher than she, faces unscrupulous and hungry for blood.
A final character descended onto the crowded Helipad. His descent was separated, more purposeful than the ones before. The others turned to face him, paying him a form of silent authority. The "click" of a weapon activating sounded out through the night, and a Crackle Rod's familiar green blare washed over the space.
Carmen's heart caught in her throat.

After being expelled from Collège Françoise Dupont as a result of Lila's manipulations, Marinette Dupain-Cheng is at the end of her rope when she receives a call from a person who consider themselves "an old friend".
This old friend knows who Ladybug is.
They know who Cat Noir is.
They know who Hawk Moth is.
They know that the Multiverse is real and she is needed to save its inhabitants.
The problem is, her dimension's Lila is still in power, having turned the majority of the school against her. With the Miraculous team compromised and using the information given, Marinette strives to create a smaller, more efficient team to stop Hawk Moth and expose Lila's manipulations. Of course, this proves easier said than done...
