A/N:Here is how it's going to work. I am going to use various quotes from the episodes, like the one below. It will have specific words in it, like for this one, it's Another Way. So that means that the title for this one is Another Way. I am also going to list the episode it is from and who said it. The next chapter will contain another quote, but this time instead of having an A word, it will have a B word. And so on and so on. I might make an update like every Friday, considering these are small and easy to write. It can be considered a weekend treat! Please Review.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Only the ideas in my head are mine, and no you cannot have them.

Neal -"There's always another way." 2x01 Withdrawal
There's always another way to do things. Always. It might not be the shortest way, or even the most perfect way, but there is another way. It doesn't matter if you're stealing from a bank or just picking someone's pocket. There is always another way to earn that money.
Some people find it odd that he goes out of his way to make sure that no one gets hurt. That he intentionally makes it so that nobody knows a thing about what just happened.
It's what makes him so good. The elaborate schemes that are meant to prevent harm for anyone that doesn't deserve it, the thefts that never include weapons or deadly force… It doesn't take an idiot that long to figure out how to use a gun. However it takes a considerably longer time for that idiot to plan an entire bank heist without using any weapons at all. Or to go through a life of crime without pulling a gun on someone.
He says that it's because violence is messy, that it's unoriginal. But Peter knows that's not the truth. He knows that something happened to Neal to make him this way. And that something wasn't good.
