    Summary

    Caine feels like a failure.

    That's a feeling you know all too well. But you're not cruel enough to leave him on his own.

    Summary

    “See that there?” Kinger points to a tiny red dot, barely a speck, really. It flickers on screen, stationary, edges fuzzy like watercolor bleeding through paper. Weak. “That’s Caine. Well, kind of. It is him— just reverted to his most earliest form.”
     
    Squinting, your eyes rove over the dim screen, analyzing. It’s hard to wrap your mind around, looking at this minuscule collective of colored pixels. Can hardly imagine that this… speck was Caine. That it is.

    “How do we get him out?”

    Summary

    In which the circus had one extra member, who couldn't prevent Caine's breakdown or deletion, but can maybe start picking up the pieces now.

    (A short "you bring Caine back" fic that focuses on his perspective. For the all the Caine girlies (gender neutral) still in mourning like me. Don't ask how the circus members all got out. That's what the canon divergence tag is for.)

    Summary

    Everyone practically decided that you’d be a good choice to go distract Caine while Pomni got the computer for Kinger. Who knows why. Maybe you were just so lucky as to have gotten the short straw in the matter.
