II. Recolle University — The Letter People Were Also A Staple Of Classic Edutainment
[Of all the days to have accepted the offer of a tour of Recollé University's campus, right? Nevertheless, the morning finds one Miss Carmen Sandiego, founder and namesake of the fledgling Sandiego Foundation, present and receiving the VIP treatment from some faculty and administrators who seem highly enthusiastic about entertaining her while she's here to see the facilities.
(Hey, maybe you're one of them! Who knows — if you play your cards right, maybe your department will end up with a nice big charitable donation before the start of the next school year. The Sandiego Foundation sure does love supporting schools and educators, after all.)
But it's sure not cards that are being played once the visit ends and she's making her way outside, because holy shit THERE WAS A FLOOR HERE AND IT'S GONE NOW and for all that these giant alphabet tiles seem pretty shady, the prospect of standing around like an idiot fumbling for what to do about a Spontaneous Gigantic Void™ seems even worse.
Half-experimentally, she picks up one of the letters and tosses it it to the ground, surprised to find it floating once it's been placed. Okay, so the good news is, it looks as though these tiles might just be useful in terms of navigating this mess.
...The bad news is, she tossed an X, so. Ha ha, ha ha ha, ahahahahaha. Ha.]
IV-ish. A Radio Station in Tisse — Closed to constellates
[The nice thing about managing the Sandiego Foundation is that, even though it's not nearly as exciting as her previous lines of work, it does at least keep her busy on a day to day basis. There's always something to do, something to focus on, something to preoccupy her instead of sitting around idle and pining for the Good Old Days™. So after a morning of...well, everything that her morning decided to be, Carmen ends up in Tisse by the afternoon to record a couple of brief soundbytes and a short interview about some of the Foundation's activities and the occasional upcoming fundraiser she's got in the works.
That concluded, she can be found in the lobby — because with her insistence on always resorting to red even without taking into consideration the part about how blue and green don't exist anymore, she absolutely stands out — reviewing her personal schedule and taking some notes in her leather-bound personal planner, which has the logo of her foundation embossed clearly on the cover.]
BONUS — It Would Be A World-Class Crime NOT To Make Use Of This Prompt, Frankly
[Now here's something interesting going on for anybody who might have the good fortune to spot Carmen at random when she's out and about today. It seems she's found the Retrospec app on her phone (and is frankly a little bit offended by the fact that it's downloaded itself without asking for her permission, what the hell kind of app is this), and has noticed that every time she brings her phone up from idle, it's asking her a trivia question to unlock it...
...
So you better believe she's just going to sit here switching off and switching on her phone again and again, just for the sake of getting the phone to keep reverting to idle and keep feeding her trivia questions, because you know what, she actually did have Important Phone Calls™ to make today but like hell she's going to surrender to Trivial Pursuit.
So yeah, if you're one of the ones having trouble? Maybe you should go ask her for some help.]

[Want to encounter Carmen somewhere else? Feel free to leave me a prompt and I'll see what I can do!]
[OOC: I've made a few tweaks to her AU backstory since making the initial comment, but please feel free to utilize her AU Workshop Comment to hit me up for any reason!]
