    Summary

    The Circus is deteriorating, and Abstractions are no longer being held in the cellar. The crew looks for Caine realizing they need him to support the circus despite his sins.

    But when they find him he's not quite the same.

    Forgiveness isn't an given. It's earned. And along the way the humans start to realize that perhaps there are some things they need to earn forgiveness for too.

    Summary

    “Caine?” Pomni asked again. The orb drifted up and down in a nod. “How do you know I know for sure? Why do you look so…” Small, weird, different. She’d been anticipating seeing a Caine clawing at the walls, or crying, or yelling. How ever she imagined finding Caine, he looked like, well, Caine. Not this.

    oOo

    The plan was simple: undelete Caine, get the Circus back up and running, and place some restrictions so Caine couldn't mess with them.

    Unfortunately, Caine and the Circus are a little more complicated than meets the eye.

    Summary

    Most of the others didn't know it, but Kinger knew a lot about the circus and a lot about its creator, too.

    So he could easily handle the creator in question catching a simple computer virus, right?

    Right?

     

    (Aka. Caine is fucking DYING of the digital flu and Kinger has to be the dad that stepped up. Current name is a placeholder name until I think of something better.)

    Summary

    Caine's deletion had done more than send the circus into disarray. It had left the world vulnerable. No sooner had Caine been stripped of his title of ringmaster than another AI was filling his chair. And this new executive is far less... forgiving than Caine is.

    A.B.E.L has sunk its claws into every corner of the circus in Caine's absence. Far away are the days of wacky adventures and side puzzles. The new AI seems interested only in pushing the humans to their physical and mental limits.

    Caine is not entirely gone, however, simply demoted. Abel could not purge his code, and so it gives him a new purpose. At least his new task allows him to stay close to his humans.

    The crew quickly realizes that Caine had been a mouse in the presence of this viper.

    (This is inspired by Katzebruh's Backup AU. Please, go check them out, their work is amazing!)
