Summary
Sighing, Goro started the car, throwing his scarf over his shoulder. It hit the backseat, and the backseat yelped. His hands hovering over the wheel, Goro's eyebrow quirked upwards, and he slowly turned to look at Akira. He swallowed, staring at his partner's face as Goro turned to look over his shoulder.
Sitting in the backseat was a young girl, probably not a day out of middle school. She was dressed in a red cardigan and a black and white houndstooth pinafore. Her red hair was hanging loose around her shoulders, and there was a small space between her fringe and her glasses where Goro could see raised eyebrows.
Akira, who was peering around the passenger seat, let out a low "Oh, fuck me."--
Four times Yoshizawa Sumire watches Akechi Goro and Kurusu Akira's con acts work brilliantly, and one time she watches it fail.

Summary
“This is just like last time.” She admitted, her voice dropping an octave. She could hear her throat going. She walked away before Debbie could see the tears brimming in her eyes. It was Vegas '97 all over again.
Debbie slowly turned so they were practically just short of touching lips.
“Lou, I—"
“You do not run a job in a job.”
Debbie’s lips faltered, failing to make a coherent sentence. She watched Lou close her mouth abruptly as if trying to bite her own tongue before revealing something more. Lou slipped away headed towards the exit to the roof.Lou paused to pick up the scotch glass on the table by the door. Without turning around, in a low voice, she flatly said, “Don’t ever make me have this conversation with you again.”

Summary
Jimin is a sociopath with too much knowledge of locks and an arsenal of wigs, and his hobbies include robbing young heirs off their family money—of course he's bored and of course, Jungkook's an easy target. “What do you want from me?”
“Nothing.”
“Bullshit.”
Jimin gives Jungkook a razor-sharp smile. “Let it go already. Namjoonie will have us both thrown out, and I’m quite fond of my head attached to my body.”
Something ugly stirs in Jungkook's chest. It comes accompanied with the very particular urge to rob Jimin of the knife he know he keeps hidden in his clothes so he can hold it to his throat. “Let it go? You conned me.”
“I told you it wasn’t personal.”
“It seemed personal to me.” Jimin seems to consider this for a moment, but he lets Jungkook ramble on. “And if you think you can just waltz around rubbing my leg and throwing innuendos my way, you’re off your head.”
or
Namjoon gets the gang together for a big heist, but Jungkook is still bitter about Jimin conning him a few years back. Chaos ensues.
