by Vampire Naomi- Recommended by: SamSam, Thragg Lootrippa
- Status: Complete
- Pairing: Lupin/Jigen/Goemon/Fujiko
- Synopsis: Jigen realizes that the dynamics within their group are changing and doesn't know how to feel about it. Thankfully, a lost treasure, a vengeful enemy, and Zenigata are there to provide some distraction - or to push them even closer together.
- Notes: A beautifully written piece that honestly had me reading it non-stop for days on end. I loved watching Jigen try to come to terms with how he felt for each of the members and I loved the new villains introduced! I can't praise this piece enough! Kind of angsty in places and reference to sex. Rated mature.

- Pairing: Lupin/Jigen
- Synopsis: NARRATOR VOICE: Fujiko wants toys, but not the fun kind. She wants ancient ceremonial dolls from imperial Japan. Lupin, the gentleman he is, volunteers to retrieve them for her, but Jigen insists it's a bad idea because he's a wet blanket. Cursed dolls. Lovers quarrels. Crossdressing Jigen. Why haven't you read this fic yet, cowboy?
- Notes: Honestly, I loved this fic, everyone is in character and it truly feels like it could be an episode of the show.
In the Middle part 2 by morporkian_hobbit
- Recommended by: SamSam
- Status: Complete
- Pairing: Lupin/Jigen/Goemon/Fujiko
- Synopsis: Dealing with your feelings is difficult. Especially when you're a 40-year-old assassin-turned-thief, and you're in love with your two business partners slash best friends, one of whom is straight and has a girlfriend, and the other is too busy with his samurai training to care about dating.
Little does Jigen know that both of his partners are trying to wingman him with the other. Meanwhile, Fujiko is facepalming in the background and hoping her boys would just take the damn hint.
(technically a sequel but you can read this on its own)
- Notes: Warning, implied sexual content. This fic is off to a great start, it started off super fluffy and cute and then dived headfirst into heartache and angst. A good read!
Dog Days Ahead by madmoddamdom
- Recommended by: SamSam
- Status: Ongoing, last update October 2021
- Pairing: Lupin/Jigen
- Synopsis: After a heated argument between Lupin and Jigen, having to do a heist the very next morning seems like the worst possible thing. They were right, but not for the reason they first thought. The gang will have to deal with a bastard Frenchman with a desire for world domination, a mysterious and magical idol, and a tight time limit for Jigen's humanity. Can they pull off one of their most important missions to date?
- Notes: A lot of feelings in this and honestly it's one of my favorite Lupin fanfictions!
Devilish smile by That One Octopus
- Recommended by: SamSam
- Status: Dormant, last update January 2020
- Pairing: Lupin/Jigen
- Synopsis: It only takes one poor job choice to change everything.
Jigen didn't believe in demons and magic twenty-four hours ago, but after a particularly bad night, he has little choice but to believe, now that his soul is bound to a (supposedly) very dangerous demon.
Lupin just wanted to mix things up for his latest stint on earth, but he's quickly finding himself getting attached to this human for reasons he can't quite work out, even with all his intelligence. If he doesn't figure it out quickly, he may lose the chance forever, as there's a steep price to pay for being bound to a demon.
- Notes: I'll admit, it's cliched but it's honestly one of the most in-character stories I have read. I already love Lupin and Jigen's dynamic and I can't wait for the author to elaborate more on the magic system and introduce the rest of the cast!
Blue in Green by deuil
- Recommended by: Heina
- Status: Complete
- Pairing: Lupin/Jigen
- Synopsis: About the tradition that is Lupin feigning death, and Jigen risking his.
it's scary, how it all fits together. Savoring an end that no one will be impressed by but the dead man himself, and that's far too much for such little payoff.
Daisuke Jigen can die right here, and all he'll have to show for it is Lupin the Third being here tomorrow, still existing the day after and the day after that, in headlines and books and the Nightly Network News.
"Why the hell are you the one in a bad mood?", Jigen will ask later, voice muffled behind fingers holding a cigarette in place, and Lupin will only be able to focus on how still those hands are.
(On those nights, Lupin watches the rise and fall of Jigen's breaths, marvels at the hypocrisy of his own indignance.)
- Notes: Short(1.4k words), beautifully written, gives me so many emotions every damn time.
