A/N I just watched the entire show for the first time and I'm mostly done listening to the show commentaries, I'm planning to write a little from Parker's POV during each episode, just sort of testing it out with this first piece, I'm sure it will take me a little work to get into writing her, but I view it as a challenge to write about how she evolves over the series.
In the beginning, it was all about the money. I'm a thief, obviously it was about the money. Why steal if it isn't to get money? And I'm the perfect thief, the one who never gets caught and always finishes a job even if people do think that I'm insane. I always worked alone, until the one time that I didn't.
Then, I learned that maybe I wasn't so perfect. I would've definitely missed the haircuts and maybe that would've gotten me caught, but probably not. I mean 1. I'm really quick and 2. I would never be doing this type of job alone. All the same, I realized that maybe I could learn something here to make me better.
When Hardison hands me a check for 32 million dollars, I can't believe it. It's the most money I will probably ever make from one job& that's saying a lot. I'm very good at what I do, some say I'm the best there is. It was, however, a little bit fun to do something different, to not just be the perfect little thief that Archie taught me to be. So, while it was still all about the money for me, I thought maybe, just maybe it could be a little about something else. That's when I decided to do it again.
