It’s Player Week time, folks!!! Get your gremlin hackers ready!!! @playerappreciationweek

(Written alt prompt 1, "Get ready to rack up more frequent flyer miles!")

Summary:

Coarse ropes bite into Player’s skin, cloth fabric covers his eyes. His bindings are tough, knotted by expert, practiced hands. He’s not the first person they’ve done this to, and if history repeats itself, he will not be the last. Some have escaped, others haven’t, but both were far more skilled than Player. He’s no operative, he’s no trained thief, he’s a tiny, scrawny little hacker, and he’s- “Oh, calm down, Player!” He squawks as an arm wrap around his neck, inhibiting his ability to breathe as his attacker drags him closer. “You’re being so dramatic!” -Been kidnapped. By his own friends.

-- Or, alternatively:

For his nineteenth birthday, all Player wants to do is curl up in bed and sleep. Unfortunately for him, he ends up kidnapped by two overzealous red-heads.

@playerappreciationweek Summary:

When one is in a team, they must make certain... sacrifices. And, sometimes, your team leader doesn't approve of those, but damn it if you won't try. -- Alternatively; Player would very much like to stay behind for everyone's safety. Player is a moron, according to Carmen.

(Made for Player Week, Day 5 "For Carmen's Safety, Right?")

Ivy: Can we PLEASE keep Player? Carmen: No, we cannot keep him. Zack: But Player's perfect! He's smart and friendly and- Carmen: He HAS parents! People who have legal custody of him. Ivy, scoffing: Since when has that stopped you before? Carmen: Carmen: I am not participating in this conversation.

Carmen Sandiego fans, consider: Carmen with a paintball or a BB gun.

I finished my Player Week stuff!

... two weeks late, but hey, now I get a nap! @playerappreciationweek

Summary:

When Player announces that he's going to a real party, with real teenagers, Carmen and the rest of their former team are nothing short of ecstatic. Unfortunately, that feeling vanishes very quickly, when Carmen gets a phonecall from him, begging for a ride home.

Alternatively; Player gets mean girl'd.

I was walking through the toy aisle at Target when I found this thing and had a VIOLENT AND IMMEDIATE FLASHBACK to when JP first came out and they had a bunch of REALLY COOL T Rex toys that I would have sold one of my scrawny small-child limbs for but my mother wouldn’t get me one because they were “too violent and also ate people” :(
