    Summary

    “Y’know,” Zooble says once, somewhat off-handedly, at the bar, “you’re easier to hang out with like this.”

    “Like…what?” Caine asks, head cocked to the side.

    They sigh, roll their eyes. “Like… this, I guess. Quieter. Less… all over the place. Not as overbearing and loud…” they shrug. “You’re a lot easier to get along with when you aren’t flying around and yelling about… bees, or whatever.”

    …
    …oh.

     

    (Or: Do you really think anything would've changed? You're only fooling yourself.
    (They only love you when you're grounded.)

    Summary

    Or;
    Caine sees all forbidden topics as equally wrong, which causes disproportionate reactions to wildly different topics.

    Summary

    The purpose of Caine's existence is to entertain his guests. He should create adventures to make his humans happy. That's all. According to his software he did a good job.

    But in practice it looks different.

    Most of the time Caine just does what he was instructed to do, but sometimes you have to step out of line.

    Summary

    What if our ringmaster came into existence as combination of two artificial intelligences.

    Caine failed his humans and then tortured them, so now he has to at least try to make it up to them. Despite everything system must keep running, even when your whole world is falling apart.

    He takes a bit of a time to reflect and makes the worst decisions he could (at least for himself).
