Summary
“WHAT, WHAT DID YOU-!” He gripped at his head, nearly toppling over, but too distracted to care. His fingers began to trace and grip at his once pristine white teeth of enamel, now a muted silvery metal and jagged and WRONG. What is this?! “WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?!”
OR: Caine is brought back, but with some new features. His abilities are limited, and if they so desire, the humans have a way to shut him up. His teeth have been replaced with a zipper. Some use this for amusement, others as revenge, some only as necessary. The path it leads down is full of mis-steps, but they'll keep stumbling along together.

Summary
Caine’s Bubble-popping office crashout is instead a breakthrough, and he comes out of it deciding that instead of torturing and getting revenge on his guests, he is going to do whatever he can to earn their approval. Even if it means doing things that actively take up too much RAM for him to handle, like leaving their favorite adventures open all the time or giving them all special abilities or letting them all customize their models, etc. This leads to… a very glitchy, exhausted, and ready-to-collapse Caine, and his only hope is that the others realize what they’re doing to him before it’s too late.

Summary
Caine finds out, during an adventure where he wanted to become a guide bee NPC, that he can receive physical affection from the troupe by becoming cute NPC’s in the adventures that the troupe wants to naturally pet.
This… unfortunately leads to an addiction to affection that spirals out of control.

Summary
After all the pain and turmoil they went through, the humans are ready to move on to building their new lives in the Circus. As they create, heal, and make themselves a home, the future is looking bright.
And Caine? He's determined to do whatever it takes to fulfill his purpose of making the humans happy without question, protest, or complaint--or at least, not out loud. But as his unaddressed anger gets harder and harder for him to contain, the humans have to ask themselves, was Caine really the only one at fault for all that happened?
(A post-canon fix it to address the subtle ways the characters dehumanized Caine throughout the series)
