As Carmen both IC and sometimes OOC, you seem to have it all together. Did you ever have insecurities or ever feel inadequate? How did you develop stability and be such a good boss?
'Having it together' is rather external. Unless you've truly been in the place of someone, it's difficult to judge who they truly are, or what they may have suffered.

Writing as Carmen, I've illustrated that there are reasons for the red trench coat and hat. Whether it's to distract, shield or mitigate, the core of these reasons rests in illusions.

Inadequacy and insecurity are native to perception, of course. As a human being, I experience them sufficiently. The secret to my stability, thus far, deals directly with being 'a good boss.' When one has dozens of lives to assure, one's own problems seem trivial in comparison.

When you took ACME Tower, and left it in the Tunisian desert... Did you honestly think it was recoverable?
I had no delusions that ACME Tower would have been salvageable after it was transported to Tunisia. I did not, however, expect that you would take the 'scorched earth' route.


[From Archived - Paradigm Shift]
...while the clues she had meticulously left in the tower were seemingly neglected as its owners ironically chose to reduce the once gleaming structure to dust.

Someone once sent me their blood encased in a small vial as 'tribute.' I can't rightly say whom, only that we are no longer in contact.

(Naturally, this is more OOC than IC, but it fits, somehow.)
Did they think you were a vampire or something? That just seems a wee bit creepy. Somebody send me a thing of blood, I'd be having a big bowl of Honey Bunches of Nope

I agree, it was (and is still) odd. I'm sure at the time, the person wanted to give a part of themselves to me and saw it fitting as blood is rather personal. I'm sure at some point, they understood this decision was a bad one.

    "Napoleon attacked by rabbits" so I had to go google search it. "The story of Napoleon being "defeated" by rabbits during a hunt in 1807 is a humorous anecdote, but it's not a confirmed historical fact, though it is mentioned in General Thiébault's memoirs. "
