gothikmaus: (Jigen)
[personal profile] gothikmaus
If you had told me just two months ago that my first finished fic of 2024 would be a gen Lupin III fic, I wouldn't have believed you. Lupin III is one of my all-time favourite anime and I've been in the fandom for years, I have figurines and T-shirts, I even wrote a Jigen/Goemon fanfic once, but that was more than 20 (!!!) years ago. But then I watched the Jigen Daisuke live-action film and Lupin Zero and I've been a little obsessed.

Anyway, here's the fic. I'm a little nervous about it, but I've had this idea stuck in my head pretty much ever since watching the film, and I really wanted to write it.



Title: A promise is a promise
Fandom: Lupin III
Pairing: -
Rating: G (maybe PG for some swearing)
Summary: Jigen receives a letter and goes back to a place he hasn't been to in more than 10 years.
A/N: Future fic set about 10 years after the events of the "Jigen Daisuke" live-action film.

The room was cold and dark, the only source of light coming from a rickety floor lamp standing in a corner. Jigen stood up from the old sofa and walked to the window, a letter held loosely in one hand. He gazed out, studying the heavy grey clouds that had been steadily gathering for the last hour. Suddenly, a flash of lightning slashed the sky, illuminating the desolate countryside that surrounded the abandoned villa for a fraction of a second. Thunder rumbled in the distance, and the first raindrops started to fall.

He slipped the letter into his pocket and took out a crumpled packet of cigarettes and a lighter. He frowned as he realized there was only one cigarette left. He lit it up and threw the empty packet in the general direction of the table, then took a long drag and exhaled slowly.

He needed to talk to Lupin.
