Some V.I.L.E sketches bc I rewatched the show recently <3

[ch3shireacat]

Part 1.

I think that we don't talk enough about how Carmen Sandiego has not one, but TWO straight up psychopath characters. Sociopath at the very least. Professor (Gunnar) Maelstrom and his favorite student Paper Star.

First off, let's start with Maelstrom. He was clearly the most intelligent/smartest out of the V.I.L.E. faculty and gave severe main character/boss vibes in V.I.L.E. since he was always the one that leaded the majority votes, explained something important and came up with a huge amount of their plans. Sorry Doctor, you were the cereBellum but Maelstrom was the brain of V.I.L.E. The series tried to soften that by having Countess Cleo on the middle of the table, giving him the most dark yet discreet design and a mysterious aura since compared to the other faculty members, he is the one we know the least about his past, personality, etc. We see that he knows a lot about the people he lives with and they barely know something about him, on purpose. Because he wants it that way. The attention being on the others, it becomes even easier for him to manipulate things behind the curtains, on the backstage, and make everyone believe him. Not to mention, he is also the most dangerous out of V.I.L.E. faculty, a point proven in the finale. He escapes through a secret passage in a rock that I bet only he knew about. We see Coach Brunt in the entrance, Doctor (Saira) Bellum trying to escape flying and Countess Cleo just waiting for her fate. Maelstrom never cared about any of them to at least suggest to them to already have a escape plan like he did. My head canon is that he wanted the others to be caught to have V.I.L.E. all for himself and do whatever the hell he wants. Coming back to the Carmen situation, the others never thought about it? Have they never talked about it before? Because they knew putting Carmen in a faculty position would be risky. Maelstrom is the one that says Carmen has a risky behaviour while stealing that doesn't fit V.I.L.E., he just let it slide because all her missions were successful but he always thinks ahead. He was ready. Dare I say, he saw it coming. Meanwhile, Brunt never betrays family and, let's be real, genuinely cared for Black Sheep before she became Carmen Sandiego. And Cleobellum are girlfriends. Okay, seriously they seemed to be close, even if just as friends. And Bellum clearly cared about her students since she missed Crackle. Also she liked cat videos, there's no way she was truly evil. The point is, Brunt, Cleo and Bellum were evil but they had a little bit of good in them. We even see Countess Cleo being sad and calling the island "Sweet Palace" while saying goodbye to it. Maelstrom was never attached to it like the others since he and Doctor Bellum are the ones that agree they have to leave the island, Brunt and Cleo being against it. Maelstrom isn't attached to anyone or anything. He only needs himself and only cares about anything that has to do with him.

"Yes, I'm very sure."

"...But do you know what you're doing?"

"Absolutely not, no."

"..."

"But I'm still very sure, if that helps?

Wow, it's been a while since I posted. Sure hope nobody missed me!!! *Cries in the corner*

Nah jk. Here's some random head cannons for Dr. Saira Bellum, our fav little crazy genius. Yes, I found a new obsession. So?

Her eyes are very sensitive, (especially to light), henceforth the goggles that she always wears. Also her eyes are golden. I have no idea why, but i've seen that and just latched onto it.

She has ADHD. Need I explain?

She either uses she/her or they/them pronouns. When asked what her gender was, her response was 'Scientist'.

She was the youngest VILE faculty member, but then Cleo joined at 15. No idea when Saira joined, but she joined before Cleo.

She's extremely sensitive to touch, because shes antisocial af and basically never touches people/gets touched.

Adding onto 5, she hates social situations and can get easily overwhelmed.

She's not very good at baking. She could be amazing, but she consistently gets focused on something else whilst the item bakes or cooks, and when she hears the timer go off it's sort of a 'Oh, I'll get that in a moment, just as soon as I finish...', until it's burnt. She tries, though.

Title: V.I.L.E., handing a baby a knife: is this how to raise a child?

Summary: Carmen Sandeigo was raised by some of the world’s most dastardly villainous minds. It’s just a coincidence that they also happened to be some of the dumbest.

Excerpt:

“Coach, are you absolutely certain she’s not just rebelling against vegetables?”

Brunt blinked at her. “She liked ‘em before.”

“She liked anything put in front of her, before. Then Bellum had to feed her that blasted rice.”

“Well, excuse me for putting nutritional value over flavor.”

She leaned over, running a hand through Black Sheep’s curls. “Don'tcha wanna eat yer veggies, lambkins? Don'tcha wanna grow and strong like Mama Bear?”

Shadowsan grunted and pinched the bridge of his nose.

Black Sheep looked at Brunt a moment, then went back to chewing. The woman slammed her hand down on the table. “Dangit, girl! Countries have fallen at this table. Yew can stand a few greens.”

I know Carmen was mostly raised by nannies and tutors I KNOW but I just. Can’t get over her growing up around supervillains who double as dumbasses. Maelstrom wanted to melt a dubloon into cufflinks. These people aren’t bright.

Side note- most of the age/timeline stuff is up to you, barring a couple of obvious references (BS being little with the knife, her having a period, etc) but it’s important to me that she only really gets to act like a child around Shadowsan. She only feels comfortable asking kid questions and making up frog OCs to him. And even if he’s still deep into his “I don’t like this kid baka” act, he finds her natural curiosity endearing.

A while back, I got this ask and I promised I would do it once I watched Carmen Sandeigo. I’m here to fulfill the lesbian promise—

When they first met, they didn’t really think much of each other. Cleo found Saira to be a slop of a scientist and was better to be described as a grease monkey. While Bellum just though she was super snooty—

After a while, Bellum’s strange charm (if you can call it that) started to rub off on Cleo. They began spending more time together— having coffee breaks, talking about their least favorite students, etc.

The affection for one another blossomed pretty casually and the two just rolled with it. They both agreed not to let their relationship interfere with their work and originally wanted to keep it secret, but that didn’t last long, everyone with eyes could tell they were gay for each other.

The two are ridiculously protective of each other. Like how Bellum mentioned having a headache after the Fashion caper and Cleo just immediately glaring at Booker... yeah, Cleo chewed her out for that one.

Despite that, Bellum has never once been jealous. She trusts Cleo and knows they have a stable, happy relationship. Cleo believes this too, but still gets disgustingly jealous.

Their words speak much louder than actions. Neither of them like PDA and prefer to give each other gifts as displays of affection.

If there’s one thing they definitely have in common besides their love of crime, it’s a love of cats. They’ve considered adopting a Sphynx.

Bellum: -laughs maniacally- Cleo: Oh, she’s so cute when she gets all eccentric.

[ch3shireacat]

dr. bellum gives off extreme non-binary energy, like she would totally have this convo when she joined the instructors

coach brunt: so, are you man or a woman?

dr. bellum: i’m a criminal

coach brunt: well duh, but what’s your gender?

dr. bellum: ...scientist?

coach brunt: wha- no, what’s in your pants?

dr. bellum: a laser gun i have been working on.

[ch3shireacat]

she might never come back lol

Cleo knows her gf too well.

This makes me so happy.

Carmen Sandiego (2019-2021)

[ch3shireacat]

Ok, so this is inspired by the scene where Carmen and Sheena fight in the library(?) And she digs her claws into Carmen's leg.

It's my idea for who she would have gone to help for and how it would have turned out.

After they fix her gel.

Baby just wanted hugs and kisses. Also Shadowsan was busy and would have scolded her for doing something so stupid. So that's why she went to her mom's.
