    Summary

    'You know you could have done more,' her mind shot back at her as she was dragged into an internal argument she had gone through a dozen times now. 'You're making an excuse, Pomni. You know you are. Jax came to you. He was finally ready to talk.' She flinched as the thoughts ran through her head. 'And now, you're just trying to make yourself feel alright for letting things happen the way they did.'

     

    Grief can be a riptide. Not everyone escapes its pull. Pomni has been stuck in an ocean of anguish that threatens to drown her as she wrestles with guilt, despair, and the futility of life in the circus.

    Summary

    Faced with this unknown social threat, the frog fell back on instinct.

    "Yyyyyyyup," answered 'Ribbit' casually. "Long time no see, guys!"

    She didn't know any of these fucking people.

     ---

    In late August of 2017, a series of .zip files were transmitted to Conversant Solutions, a company investing in computational and robotics technologies. When compiled, these files divulged a nigh-impenetrable thicket of LISP programming, a digital facsimile of the C&A office building circa 1996, and five "neural scans."

    Despite buying out C&A nine years prior, only one of ConverSol's many hires held the prerequisite experience interfacing with C&A tech to parse this data. The fact that said experience involved breaking into a disused building to get high with her buddies is neither here nor there.

    A simulation is coded, a headset donned — and a second copy of Ribbit hurtles headlong into the void.

    Summary

    Gangle wants to know if the others really think she's worse with her Comedy Mask. Bubble gives Gangle a mind-reading mask without telling her what it does. What started as a way to gain insight on how the others see her Comedy Mask quickly spins into learning other circus members' secrets and gaining insight into how much the A.I. running the circus really knows.

    or

    Bubble is a wildcard and Gangle now has the ability to read the minds of humans and A.I.'s alike. What will she learn?
