Q & A AMA - Carmen Sandiego

[Acton Roux]

Comment tu as prévu d'occuper ta retraite ? As-tu prévu ta retraite ou crains-tu d' y arrive ?

 

[Carmen]

Bothered... so much...

I have no intention of tying knots.

While I’m rather comfortable with time, Acton, I believe more in the stages of life than I do in retirement. I once considered, should this profession taper and travel becomes impossible for me, that I may spend quiet nights somewhere with dramatic, shifting landscapes.

Although, as the best laid schemes of mice and men go often askew, I plan nothing for myself. I prefer my ‘retirement’ to benefit the maximum number of persons possible. I suppose some day, we may learn more.

I see what you did there, clever.
Lucky for you, I’m an expert at knots.

Are there any members of VILE you wish hadn't joined and had just lived a normal civilian life?

While there is no one person that I wish had not joined the crew (and instead, led a different life), I will admit that there were some members that could not stay. I've taken these as lessons learned, of course.

Show me.

 

[Chase]

Show me.

Challenge accepted.

Hang on, I had a question, then got distracted.
Right, you said you'd welcome Mikal... Why Mikal?

 

[Carmen]

Right, you said you'd welcome Mikal... Why Mikal?

I'm sure for the same reasons you'd want to keep Mikal. Who hasn't a penchant to hire a Middle Eastern 'specialist' with cultural understandings of the esoteric Druze, the Yehudim Yisraelim, and one who has roots in Hinduism?

Challenge accepted.

It wasn't a challenge.

 

[Chase]

It wasn't a challenge.

Nope, can't take it back.
