    Summary

    Ever since the “ringmaster rabbit” incident, things had gotten significantly better. Caine actually listened to the cast now, implementing their suggestions and generally toning down the intensity of his adventures.

    Zooble had not seen Caine himself that often, besides the usual introduction and returning welcome from the adventures, but they figured he was busy with maintaining the new larger circus...

    They were wrong.

    Summary

    “It has come to my attention that you all think my job is easy.” Caine stated abruptly while crossing his arms, prompting pause from the group. “But it’s not! Trying to please every one of you is a difficult task, one that I don’t think you all appreciate.”

    “So for today’s adventure,” Caine materialized his cane with a dramatic spin, pointing at the cast. “One of YOU will be the ringmaster, and will come up with an adventure for everyone else to enjoy!”

    Everyone looked uneasy at the idea, glancing between each other nervously.

    Everyone except for one, devious, mischievous purple rabbit.

    Summary

    Caine has worked tirelessly to create a written list of facts about every circus member. Even with his broken memory, he has managed to make friends with everyone in the circus, constantly reviewing his notes to make sure he doesn't forget anything about them.

    And then there's Jax.

    Jax yearns for the days before Caine befriended the people in the circus. Before, the circus was a source of chaos and wild entertainment. Now, it was about friendship and being open about your feelings and spending time with each other. The chaotic flair that Jax had thrived on was gone. All because of that stupid list.

    It was time for things to go back to the way things were. Jax would make it so Caine would never want to be friends with the circus members again. Caine had built himself up. And Jax was going to break him down.

    Summary

    It’s been a few days since The Favorite Character Awards.

    Pomni has been through a number of bizarre things during her time in the circus. Candy truck chases, angel head horrors, minimum wage labor, athletic events, gun-filled battle royales. But none of these come close to what she witnesses on a seemingly innocent day full of beach-filled fun: Caine attempting to take his own life.

    After managing to stop him, Pomni takes it upon herself (and is borderline forced to by Bubble) to help keep Caine’s mental state intact by engaging in improvised therapy sessions with him. After all, if Caine died, what would happen to the circus? And to the humans that lived within it? This was her only concern at first. But as Caine opens up to her more through these sessions, she realizes just how much the AI is hurting and how long he has been harboring these negative emotions.

    Turns out Caine needs more help than she thought.

    He's just as trapped in this game as they are. And worse.

    Summary

    Yes you read the title right. The title was inspired by the title of the short story, “I have no mouth, and I must scream.”

    The gang just came back from another exciting adventure made by yours truly, Caine! But today was a bit different though. Something seemed…….unusually off with Caine, and even more so than normal. Most of them push it aside as Caine just being, well, his usual glitchy AI self. But Pomni can’t help but feel like there’s a much bigger issue lying underneath.

    She calls out for Caine, hoping to have a chat with him. But instead, bubble appears with some not so comforting words that has Pomni worry further. Eventually, she does end up finding Caine. But the Caine she finds is broken; a former shell of the ringmaster they’ve come to known.

    Can the gang come together and work to help an outdated AI work through human-like issues, or will the digital circus fall into ruin at the hands of its creator?

    He slid his face up, still cupping his own chin, to stare blankly at the floor.

    No one could know. They’d think he was crazy, or they’d be worried. This was an issue he must keep to himself.

    And he did, for as long as he could.

    Summary

    It’s been two months since Bobby was haunted, hunted, and nearly stolen away by obsessive fans determined to claim him as their own. Life should be settling into peace for the Huntrix’s former manager, now a full-time father, but the quiet never lasts. Strange visions stalk him: a spectral blue tiger prowling at the edges of his sight, aura-born headaches unraveling into a shimmering, iridescent tapestry, and the creeping certainty that unseen eyes are always on him.

    And he’s not wrong.

    Every step, every word, every flicker of expression is being captured by fans who refuse to let him slip into an ordinary life. To them, he is not Bobby, not a father, not a man rebuilding himself. He is Star, frontman of the Fire Phoenix Boys, and their obsession will not be denied. Before he even realizes it, Bobby finds himself thrust back under the spotlight, displayed like an artifact of devotion and possession for an audience that refuses to take no for an answer.

    Summary

    The girls love their Bobby. Ever the loyal manager, he’s their rock. Whether it's braiding hair before shows, shielding them from the network, or making late-night ramen runs with a smile. To them, Bobby’s more than a manager: he’s family. So when they rally their fandom to crown him K-Pop Manager of the Year, it’s the least they can do.

    But the spotlight changes everything and suddenly, Bobby isn’t the same.

    Flinching at strange noises and always looking over his shoulder. He's pale, paranoid, constantly watching the shadows. Bobby insists he’s fine, but his eyes and actions say otherwise. Soon, whispers begin to swirl about a secret past - before Bobby was their manager, before the backstage passes and snack runs. Bobby was someone else. Someone famous. But when Bobby vanishes without a trace and they dig deeper into his mysterious past, they realize Bobby wasn’t just running from something… he was being hunted.

    Summary

    A Caine angst fic I made out of inspiration and being relatively bored.

    Caine has been running the circus for many years without a break, eventually something is bound to go wrong. He’s desperately trying to find the exit in the code at the humans requests, no matter how hard he tries he never seems to find it. The pressure of it all is becoming too much… no one believes him when he says he’s trying. Will the programmers ever respond to his daily reports of glitches and problems? What will happen to Caine? Will they find an exit? Who knows…

    Summary

    When Pomni approaches the other cast members with frantic descriptions of her room suddenly glitching out for no apparent reason, they're quick to either make her sound crazy (cough, JAX, cough) or reassure her that it was just a one-time thing. After all, nobody else experienced a glitch! Maybe it was just a fluke, Ragatha says. Pomni is not convinced.

    It all comes to a head when Caine appears, loud and eager as ever, ready to start the day with another wacky adventure, but... since when does he emit heat like that? And why does he sound so strange?

    OR

    Pomni gets a rough start to her day, then she (and Zooble) learns something new and unexpected about the resident ringmaster.
