    Summary

    The absence of Caine, unfortunately, makes way for something worse. Out of pure desperation, the gang rescues him from deletion in hopes he can save them from being deleted too.

    Caine gets another chance to prove himself, though he's not sure he wants to, and he still doesn’t understand how it all went so wrong in the first place.

    Nobody really wants to die here. Nobody really has much of a choice on how to make that happen. And certainly, nobody is really happy with their former tormentor(s).

    But…any port in a storm, right? And maybe with a little patience and effort and compassion, they can all learn to just...live.

    Summary

    After the events of the Escape The Circus test/adventure, the troupe are understandably angry with Caine. Caine, desperate to not be left behind, tells them he'll do anything for them.
    They don't find out how far he'll go until it's too late.

    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.
