thief stuff by nevermore_evermore

Summary
There are two people who saved Jack Wilder's life. One of them, long before they ever met in person, before they ever robbed a Parisian bank and an insurance mogul and framed a skeptic, is J. Daniel Atlas.
The other is Parker.
...
Fifteen-year-old Jack Wilder (okay, fourteen-and-a-half, but that doesn't matter, right?) steals the wallet of the world's greatest thief and winds up with a new mentor and a set of lockpicks to show for it.
Twenty-two-year-old Parker has her wallet stolen when she's supposed to be casing the Met for her latest heist, and winds up with a kid magician that could've been family, if she'd let him be, and that she can't quite make herself forget.
They end up in the same line of work.

Summary
Henley knows something's wrong the second that the Mission Impossible score starts singing through her phone.
...
An unknown hypnotist erases Jack Wilder from the minds of the other Horsemen, determined to cut them off at the knees by removing their most versatile member and strike a blow to both their public image and their trust in each other by ensuring they wouldn't believe him at all. Unfortunately for them, they forgot that one Horseman (retired, sure, but you don't steal 3.2 million euros from a Parisian bank just to lose the title forever) isn't in London at all--and Henley Reeves has no intention of letting Jack fall to the wayside.

Summary
At seventeen, Jack figures out that a lot of family-owned restaurants will pay cash under the table for bussers and dishwashers on busy weekends. Plus, he usually leaves with leftover food at the end of the night, which is always a major relief.
At eighteen, Jack gets his first binder and figures out that it’s not that hard to get T once he knows the right people and gets over any reservations about the DIY stuff. He has a major growth spurt and loses a lot of the baby fat on his cheeks; he actually looks his age now.
At nineteen, Jack doesn’t notice Dylan bumping into him and slipping a tarot card into his pocket.Or, Jack is transgender. He successfully keeps that a secret until he binds for way longer than he's supposed to and winds up facing the consequences. That's what happens when you're put on a fifteen-hour flight to Macau without prior knowledge. It's a good thing Jack has good friends.

Summary
Jack Wilder goes missing two months after the London show, dragged off the street outside the Eye's Portland safehouse by people itching to see how long it took to break a Horseman.
This isn't about the breaking, though. This is about the finding, and the healing, and the becoming. The Horsemen will rewrite the world to keep their formerly-missing member safe--but in the meantime, they'll paint his room and make milkshakes and sit through the nightmares and the panic attacks, and everything will be okay.
They're a team, after all. They're always going to look out for each other.

Summary
He’s seemed… different, lately — he’s always a bit high-strung, tense and nervous, but Merritt’s seen him when he spills out of Lula’s bedroom with sparkly nails to match hers, or coming downstairs with the side of his hair in a braid — and there’s the hint of a smile that seems a little more natural, a little more delighted than anything else.
There’s something heavy in his gaze as he watches Lula on occasion, when she whips out her lipstick after dinner and touches up the smudges, or when Merritt gets downstairs and the two of them are on the couch — Daniel choosing his favourite eyeliner look for her to try on, something unreadable on his face.
It’s hard to parse out, sometimes — Merritt’s not always entirely sure what it is, but he sees the way Daniel’s eyes seem to get stuck on the little tin of makeup in Lula’s hands, the way the glitter seems to catch the light and reflect it back — and it’s not hard to figure out, all of a sudden.

5 + 1 of five times that they don't get J. Daniel Atlas' name quite right, and the one time that they do.

Summary
Dylan hums uncomfortably, eyes darting between Jack and Daniel before settling somewhere on the ceiling for a moment. “I mentioned that the Eye had some weird experimental stuff up here, right?”
It was the first thing they’d been told when they’d first arrived, actually — don’t touch anything weird, don’t break anything and don’t ingest any of the sketchy things they find in either the cellar or the attic. “Uh,” Jack says, intelligently — “does breathing in red powder count as ingesting?”
Based on the flat look Dylan sends him, the answer ranges somewhere between yes and duh. He sighs, and he reaches up to pinch the bridge of his nose. “I’m gonna make some phone calls, see what exactly was in it. Until then, stay put, don’t do anything weird and stay out of the attic. I don’t need you guys breathing in anything else and making this worse.”
—
Daniel and Jack accidentally break a magic potion in the Eye's attic — and temporarily swap personalities. This is not hard to figure out — it's only hard to adjust to, unfortunately for both of them. Everyone else suffers, too.

Summary
“Battery. Battery, uh—holding-thingy. Wiring was bad. Container blew up when I took the battery out. S’not the battery. No electric–electro—shut-down-everything bomb. Battery’s okay.” There’s another rustle, the sound of pockets being patted, and a sigh of relief. “Kinda smushed, but okay.”
“Are you okay?” Christ, did he think he meant the damage to the battery? He’s got contingencies if they aren’t able to take it, plans to make sure it ends up out of Advantage’s hands even if all they end up with are blueprints and schematics. The con is plenty salvageable without the battery he sent him to steal. The team sure as hell won’t be if Jack dies from a brain bleed or a bomb.
“M’fine. Blew up.”
“He has a concussion,” Daniel says flatly, and Dylan sighs, scrubbing a hand across his face. He’s starting to put that together himself.
“Do not,” Jack says, perfectly indignant. “The—it blew up. And it pushed me. Into the wall.”
...
Jack gets a concussion when a heist goes wrong. Dylan thinks he's getting a headache, too. Everyone else is just along for the ride.

Summary
Maybe this isn’t the awful thing it feels like. Perhaps whatever lingers in his blood that overrides his control is something intended to help, to make him better.
The thought doesn’t alleviate any of the terror that still swirls behind his ribcage, threatens to spill over and sink its icy teeth into his bones — but it’s something he clings to, nonetheless. He’ll figure it out, and stop it, and in the meantime it could be a good thing. He hasn’t figured out how to apologise, yet — but the logical first step would be to keep them happy, make sure he stays in their good graces and doesn’t do anything to further aggravate them.
He doesn’t like the idea, but if this — thing, this compulsion helps to make him more palatable, more tolerable and easier to be around, perhaps he’ll be allowed to stay long enough to make it up to them. He might be able to turn it into a good thing before he finds out how to end it, before it wears off. He’ll just wait it out.

J. Daniel Atlas ends up cursed, he thinks. It takes a while for the others to notice. In the meantime, he tries to stay sane. It's surprisingly difficult when your mind isn't your own, anymore.

Summary
Alma Dray is dead. At least that's what the news is reporting. A month after the London New Year's Show, the FBI investigation is currently at a standstill. Alma Dray is now brought back into the investigation despite being off it for more than a year. Then poof, she vanishes alongside former Horsemen Henley Reeves. The Horsemen are now confronted with an unknown group, seeking revenge for unclear transgressions targeting them and the people they care about. As confusion grows, Alma is declared dead. The biggest questions that remain are: Can they stop them before anyone else gets hurt? And will they be able to pull of their final act.
“I wonder what they want from you, Agent Dray?” …. “Do you have something they want?” he spoke in a half-whisper.

Summary
After New Year's Eve the Horsemen are savoring their victory, but sadly Danny can't shake off the bitter aftertaste of guilt he's been feeling since his conversation with Mabry in the market.
It might just end up making him sick.Or I couldn't help noticing how Danny never really seems at ease during the last part of the second movie and I couldn't stop myself from torturing him about it.

Summary
He was supposed to understand. He was not supposed to lead him into a comfortable cell and tell him that he was going to be “helped.” That he was a person and not a weapon. That he was supposed to do something other than follow orders. He is being changed from whatever he was built into, and he does not know whether he should be happy about it, but the anger is easier to understand. It is easier to feel. It’s almost comforting. There is so much for him to be angry about, and it comes so easily, and he lets it drown him.
You took me away, he snarls when the Horsemen come to visit, watches them go wide-eyed and stunned, McKinney’s jaw clenching and May’s footsteps faltering and Reeves’s mouth twisting into a frown and Atlas’s hands twitching. You took me away from my purpose. My mission.
You’re dead. The second I’m free of this place, you’re dead. All of you.
...
Jack Wilder starts to recover from being the Asset, gradually rebuilding his memories of the Horsemen and who he was before. It's a slow process, at first--and then it spirals a little bit out of control.
The Horsemen are by his side every step of the way.

Summary
Lula’s a Horseman now, but only because she’s taking a dead kid’s place.
She’d seen the theories that Jack had survived somehow, that his death had been faked, but the grief on Dylan’s face was too real to ignore. The rest of the Horsemen, too. In hindsight, she probably should’ve known that they wouldn’t take well to a replacement after the last one literally died, that bouncing in with boundless enthusiasm and affection and pretending their confusion and betrayal didn’t affect her at all would make things worse. Stupid of her, right? She got her wish nearly two years after she made it, and it feels more like a curse than anything else. Goddamn monkey’s paw bullshit. If she was a more superstitious person, she’d wonder if that wish is what killed Jack Wilder in the first place.
...
Jack Wilder is supposed to be dead. He's definitely not supposed to be blocking the escape of his former team at the Octa show, and he's definitely not supposed to be trying to kill them.
But he is--and if the Horsemen want to get him back, they're going to have to outrun him, first. Problem is, no one ever outruns Death.
