Summary
After Team Snakemouth saved Bugaria, life as an adventurer goes back to what it should be - taking requests from people who need help, not fighting for your life every day. Kabbu is... not handling this particularly well. His sleep is restless, fights leave him aching, and his friends are becoming concerned.
It would be so much easier, he thinks, if the itch clawing around in his chest would just go away.
(Kabbu struggles to adjust.) -

Summary
A glitch causes Caine’s audio to be broadcast across the circus while he plans an adventure with Bubble, and the cast gets to hear Caine struggle and laugh with the circus’ stupid spaghetti code, as well as some oddly human moments from Caine as they learn things about him and things that he does that they never knew about.

Summary
Caine experiences a strange mix of new, almost disorienting emotions in the wake of his players' inexplicable new habit of touching him for no visible reason. The positive feedback is certainly a plus – it's warm, it's unexpected, and he finds himself seeking it out more often than he'd ever admit. Maybe this is something he could get used to.
So he lets it continue. He leans into it, even, pretending his circuits aren't buzzing with something dangerously close to happiness.
Until one day, it all falls apart.

Summary
Caine already knows it's status. He still received all the error reports, despite being unable to fix anything. Seeing it shouldn't make it feel worse, but it somehow still does.
His beautiful circus - his wonderful creation full of colour and noise and fun - is dull. The brilliant reds and yellows are dim reflections of themselves, and the entire map has a lower saturation than it should. There's large tears in the hitboxes of the walls, floors and ceiling, dropping into out-of-bounds areas that players shouldn't be able to see, let alone access. The gentle hum of background noise he keeps up for the daylight hours is gone, and everything is quiet except from the shuffles from the humans.
Talking of his humans, they're all there too, tense, standing a decent ways back from him.
"Oh great." Jax growls, "He was actually down there."
-------------
Despite being freed from his box, his performers still haven't reconnected him with the circus's main systems.
Caine's very being is entangled with the circus, and being cut off from the majority of himself is so disorienting he can barely focus on the glares his cast is giving him.Series

Summary
Sequel to "Birthright" and "Beelieve In the Me That Believes in You."
As the rest of the Circus starts to adjust to their new norm, Caine slowly comes undone. Try as he might, Kinger must face the reality his virtual children have long since been living: that no amount of updated code can repair what's been taken away.
Nor that which has been left behind.
