Carmen Sandiego Player - Tumblr Posts
Ivy: so, apparently Player's computer password isn't "AHHHHH"
Carmen: why did you think it was...?
Player: SHE ASKED IT WHILE CLIMBING THROUGH MY FUCKING WINDOW
Player, @ Carmen after Ivy and Zack join the team: you need to slowly introduce me to them or I'll get scared and start biting like a raccoon.
Tigress, trying to negotiate her freedom with Carmen: I mean... sick offer but I kinda kicked your asses two years ago, and, I mean, if I couldn't beat them, could yo-
Tigress, grinning: WAIT! Do you still have that really sassy twelve-year-old?
Carmen, after not hearing from Player for a few days: Heya! It's nice to know you aren't dead in an alleyway!
Player, who just woke up to her calling: Same to you???
EY YO, DARK!PLAYER ENJOYERS! GET YA’LLS JUICE!
Summary:
It's been months since Player first disappeared, months where Carmen and the rest of her team were left waiting for some kind of sign, anything that would lead them to Player.
She gets it on top of a Ferris wheel.

Or, alternatively: The Ferris wheel scene but with Dark!Player instead of Carmen.
WAKE UP DARK!PLAYER ENJOYERS! I AM ONCE AGAIN BACK WITH MORE!!

Summary:
"If you leave for-" He pauses, Carmen can hear the young hacker suck in a breath as he readjusts himself. His voice comes out strained,” Let's say five- no, ten minutes? I'll be gone, all of your things will be fine. I won’t touch any of your data, you have my word.”
“And I’m supposed to trust the word of a trained…” hacker,” Thief?”
There’s a beat, Carmen wonders how quickly she can pick the doorknob's lock but finding a pin in time would be more difficult… “I keep my word,” Player snaps, but truthfully, Carmen can read Player like a book, can hear just how much his voice really trembles,” Unlike you, traitor.”

Or, alternatively;
A small, injured VILE operative turns up in Team Red's headquarters; their own best friend, Player.
And they have to find a way to bring him home, permanently.
Yet another Player fic, this time for Febuwhump!
TRIGGER WARNINGS IN THE TAGS!
Summary:
"A pleasant little blip sounded off from one of his devices, signaling that the decryption program had finished its job. “I’ve almost got it,” He reported, the smile on his face turning more genuine,” Just hold them off for a little longer, and I can finish-”
Player doesn’t get to finish his sentence. "
Alternatively, Player just wants to help his friends. But nothing's ever that easy,

*While visiting Player*
Zack: Hey, what state are we in?
Player: I want you to look me in the eyes and repeat what you just said.
Player: I just chugged a bottle of NyQuil thinking it was DayQuil so to fix it, I also drank an entire monster.
Carmen: ... is your heart okay?
Carmen: Player, what's this bag of white powder I found in your room?
Player: Oh, that? It's crushed eggshells, for my plants
Carmen: THANK GOD I thought you were doing drugs!
POV: You leave a hacker in a hot car
Summary:

At least, until Brunt grabs the whip.

Carmen Sandiego gets a hundred percent funnier if you remember that Player has directly heard the VAST majority of Carmen's on-heist interactions (if you don't believe me, just pay attention to the way he talks after an event. Example: "You were kind of... direct", after her lecture in Dubai implies that he heard the fight)
Carmen: you aren't really dressed for the occasion... but we'll make it work ;)
Player, spitting out his drink: CARMEN-

Player: DID YOU JUST THROW A SHOE AT DEVINEAUX??
--
Player: Carmen I swear to God if you jump off of that building-
--
Carmen: when are you going to stop acting like amateurs!?
Player, casually turning the sound on his computer allll the way down: let's just ignore that :))) everything's fine!!

Player, hearing his best friend get her bones SNAPPED in a death hug: ...

Carmen: YOU OWE ME A NEW HAT!
Player: YEAH!
