Compendium of Caine angst fic ideas

Summary:

Listed here are my many ideas for different stories focusing on Caine that I need to get out of my system after the storm that was Episode 8. Since I have no faith in my own writing skills, I will periodically post any interesting story ideas that come to mind here, each in its own chapter. Don’t expect incredible detail, though; these are more just prompts and inspiration for your own stories.

All these ideas are focused on Caine and are free for any of you to use for your own stories or to be inspired by.

I will also add and update tags as I go along to accommodate new ideas.

Notes:

I do not own The Amazing Digital Circus or any of its characters. All credit goes to Gooseworx and Glitch

If you choose to use any of these ideas or are inspired by them you have full permission to use them freely and do not need to credit me.

Chapter 1: Caines Thought Bubble

Chapter Text

IDEA 1 

Caines Thought Bubble

Main idea based off the theory that bubble acts as an external thought bubble for Caines more intrusive thoughts as well as just being a normal AI

 Main plot would probably be Caine struggling with his own fragile feelings such as self-worth, abandonment and/or wanting the humans to like him and Bubble starts spewing out these thoughts. (Possibly in a private area at first?) And Caine pops him or something then goes to announce an adventure and/or address the main cast in some way 

The situation spirals from there for reasons such as:

  1. They simply don’t like or want to go on an adventure
  2. It's set after episode 7 or further when they’d have reason to be angry with Caine 
  3. The circus members get distracted by one of Jax’s antics or the actions of another cast member

And so on

Caine tries to keep up his ringmaster persona as the thoughts and feelings get worse and unfortunately for him, Bubble decides to make a sudden appearance (or he was already there in the background) and starts speaking out these more disturbing and intrusive thoughts which catch the attention of the circus members and confuse/concern them?

Caine maybe tries to brush it off to bubble malfunctioning or get rid of him but either somebody realises what's going on and spills the beans (maybe Kinger) or they figure it out by how Caines acting.

 Caine is then unable to further hide these feelings and spirals further possibly breaking down, running away or continuing to mask it?

Summary- Bubble acts as Caines unwanted and vocal thought bubble projecting his most intrusive thoughts infront of the circus members.
