    Summary

    Christine came back from the impossible with scars no one could see. She was supposed to be moving on: going back to work, learning how to be a real person again, and pretending the daily flashbacks were not a problem.

    Then Cam walked into her life, sharp-tongued, legally questionable, and carrying oddly similar damage.

    How long was she supposed to wait before trusting him with who she used to be?

    Or: a post-circus funnybunny-centric story about identity, grief, and getting the gang back together again. takes place summer of 2026, based on lore up to ep 7 ♡

    Summary

    It began with an alert in his email inbox- somebody had altered some code he wrote.
    Not a particularly unusual notification for Grant to get, considering he had been a computer scientist for more than three decades. It was slightly more unusual, however, considering the notification said that the code had been modified by Grant himself- something he had definitely not done- and also considering the system being altered had been shut down more than eighteen years ago.

    From: C&A - LOCAL [HQ]
    ALERT !
    [1337 /usr/ai/agent/caine] DELETED.

    ...What the hell.

    Or: Six people have been living their normal lives, entirely unaware of the copies of their consciousness trapped in a brightly-coloured digital hellscape. That is, at least, until said copies escape the Circus, and six people wake up with both sets of memories, determined that the family they formed in a very different reality is one they will find again.

    Summary

    They escaped the circus. Pomni has her name again: Christine. She also has her old life to return to. Unfortunately, it's more difficult to reintegrate herself back into the life she had before putting on the headset than she originally thought. It's hard when her friends and family don't understand what she went through and the people who do understand might not even exist. She sees the ghost of them everywhere she looks, though.

    She's determined to find them no matter what.

     

    Or, a series of moments of Pomni trying to adjust to being human again while trying to find her digital friends in the real world.

     

    Written before Episode 9. There are no spoilers in here!

    Summary

    Ever since the brawl, guilt consumed Jax. Denied him rest. Instead of confronting the problem like any healthy coping mechanism, he visited the Bubble Bar—Kaufmo's old stomping ground—with the intention of drinking himself silly while sharing the company of an NPC cursed with self-awareness. Bumping into Caine wasn't part of the plan, but they bonded over ungrateful Circus Folk.
