Magical Misappropriations by steveheuser

The life of a thief is hard, but glamorous. With enough money, even the lowest-born citizen of the shining jewel of Voughtberg can carve out a comfortable niche, enjoying the silent prestige that comes with it. The watchmen doff their hats at the masters, and after nights of derring-do, they retire to their hidden beds, and beautiful men and women. Or so Roland and Jochim have heard. Unfortunately, they're still stuck doing whatever task is assigned to them by their miserly employer. Whatever pittance they are gifted has to be supplemented by mundane work under the burning sun, shoulder to shoulder with the sweating masses of the city. These, however, are the necessary burdens for the future they desire, burdens that have been shouldered by generations of thieves. Certainly, nothing so capricious that the accidental theft of a simple paintbrush could disturb it... Imagine the surprise when after its discovery, they are pursued by strange men, and stranger monsters, intent on their death, and the brush's retrieval. With only their wits, and the help of a few friends, the pair of thieves are thrown into a struggle to find out the mystery of the strange artifact before they, or the life they cling to, are lost forever.

The Phoenix Thief by turnbyanderg

Joakim is living a grifter's nightmare. He's out of money, his latest con's hit the dragon dung, and his former 'clients' seek revenge. When he's abducted by a pair of dark magicians, it's almost a relief, but his would-be rescuers have plans of their own. Waking with no memory and a pressing desire to leave town, Joakim meets Erstas, a scholar seeking to capture a phoenix, a mythical bird said to grant immortality. Joakim has his doubts. He's sold lies before, and it sounds like the old man's bitten on a fat one, but he's offering a fortune. Crazy client or not, Joakim can't say no to a ten gold, and it could be more, a lot more, if Erstas ever let his guard down. But somehow, despite his plotting, Joakim can't bring himself to rob Erstas. Instead of riches, Joakim finds friendship, as Erstas's kindness makes him wonder if his lonely life of crime is worth clinging to. When Joakim feels a compulsion to betray Erstas, he realizes he's under the influence of the magicians. Now he's leading his enemies straight to the phoenix, and only Erstas stands in their way. To save his friend, Joakim might have to do the one thing his controllers never counted on - sacrifice himself.

So he strikes out on a quest: win the fighting tournament held every year, where she gives out the prize, and hypothetically-just hypothetically-he can forfeit the monetary winnings and instead ask for a week to be close to her, to get to know the real her, and break the illusion once and for all.
