    Summary

    And then he could hear them moving closer and it was weird because he didn't intend to move his avatar, but he was stumbling backwards before he computed why. His back's impact with the wall behind him made them pause again.

    "Was that..?" Pomni whispered.

    Kinger hummed in confirmation.

    She was quiet for a second before calling out, "Hey, Caine?"

    "Be careful." Kinger whispered back, "He's broken out from here before."

    Caine's arms felt itchy - and that was idiotic because he was a machine who didn't feel itchy - and his eyes were buzzing between his jaw, and he slowly slid his hands across the hitbox of the wall to feel less wobbly on his feet.

    ---

    The humans find Caine in his box
    They're expecting a raging, revenge-ridden AI who curses them for trapping him away - however accidentally it was. They're expecting him to order them to let him out.

    They aren't expecting him to beg.

    Summary

    What if the plan in episode 8 was just a little bit different? What if, instead of bringing the computer to Kinger, Pomni brought him to the computer?

    What if Kinger was missing?

    Summary

    Zooble, the last "performer" of The Amazing Digital Circus. The one that, despite all expectations (including their own), was the only one of the humans who hadn't lost themselves to abstraction (not yet anyway). The one that just wanted to go home, to leave the circus and all its horrors behind. The one that wished it would never hav to go on another adventure ever again. The one that just wanted to rest, to let go, to see their friends again.

    Caine, the Ai ringmaster of The Amazing Digital Circus. The one that was meant to entertain, to bring joy to all those with good fortune to stumble upon his colorful world. The one that wanted to be loved and cherished by all under his watch. The one that was hated by all. The one that had to send every single Abstraction (every single member of his circus) to the cellar. The one that wanted to fulfill his purpose, to not be the failure he knew he was. The one that wanted someone, anyone, to be his friend.

    The last two inhabitants of The Amazing Digital Circus, and what it means to be alone with someone you will never understand.
