    Summary

    “You said goodbye already.”

    Pomni whirled around to face Zooble. “What?”

    Zooble looked right at her. “Pomni. You gotta let him go.”

    Her chin quivered, and tears threatened to spill out.

    She raised her head resolutely to meet Zooble’s eyes.

    “He didn’t want to go.”

     

    Pomni decides to find out if she can still communicate with an abstracted Jax.

    Summary

    You look, she thinks, so strange. So… She pushes herself up onto her elbows. So unfamiliar.

    What? Pomni thinks. Of course it looks familiar.

    She looks just the same as she always does. I have bags under my eyes. Her hands are shaking. Why are they all so worried about me. She’s not entirely sure she’s remembering how to breathe. None of them even know who I was. She’s pretty sure the face staring back at her is somewhere halfway between herself and stranger.

    I think we’re going mad, Pom-Pom, says a voice that is not her own, and Pomni yelps.

    (Or: Your coping mechanisms suck shit, Pom-Pom.)

    Summary

    Months after giving up all hope on them, Pomni enters the pillow fort to find... Jax.

    But not the one she remembers. A new one. One with softer eyes, happier features and a big red bow on one ear.

    Jax has to figure out what the fuck to do. Because they are a girl now. And weirdly okay about it.

    Also: Jax has her egg cracked by God and has to find a way to cope after being abstracted for months.

    Jax has returned. But she's different from the one they used to know.

    Summary

    Normally, people only put the headset on once. After all, what reason could someone have to return?

    But then again, expecting the person Jax's mind file came from to follow the rules might have been a mistake

    Or: Leeroy Mateo, on the verge of renaming herself, decides to celebrate how far she has come by going back to a place tied to the lowest point in her life. Surely, putting on a non functional headset as a sort of ritual won't be much more than that

    Summary

    Jax wakes up after a long, long time, a bit the worse for wear.

    On the one hand, she experienced ego death, is tired and hurting all the time, and cries like a faucet now.

    On the other, she's too exhausted to bother with her old bluster, has accepted that she wasn't subtle at all about her gender woes, and is genuinely galaxies happier than she used to be.

    But even so...an old question begins to nag at her.

    "Have you...ever done something you regret?"

    Summary

    Pain.

    There’s only pain. Throbbing and stabbing and crushing and burning all at once. She tried to remember the events leading up to her current predicament but any attempt at focusing her thoughts is ripped away by the relentless piercing pain turning her brain into a pin cushion.

    Only her head seems to be affected by whatever this situation is. Her body feels disconnected, almost floaty, but there’s no pain to be found there. Did she get a concussion somehow? It wouldn’t be too unexpected for her to get whacked in the head by some damaged scaffolding or crumbling ceiling tile. Her mother had always warned her that this hobby of hers would get her killed one day.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    When returning to the C&A building she'd explored months prior results in Pomni's real-life counterpart gaining her memories, she embarks on a quest to find the other members of the circus in the real world and help them merge with their virtual counterparts as well. As she works to save her friends from the confines of the circus, she begins to wonder if there is more to this process of merging than it seems to the eye. Why won't her head stop aching?

    Summary

    Jax ducks her head, still staring at Ribbit out of the corners of her eyes, and for a long, long moment, they just look at each other.

    In another universe, Kaufmo knocks.

    But in this one…

    Kaufmo doesn’t knock.

    Jax says, “Thank you.”

    It’s not a great day. But it’s better.

    (a what if? for that scene in ribbit’s room. kaufmo doesn’t knock, jax doesn’t run, and ribbit doesn’t fade away. edited on 6/20 to include an actual summary instead of spoiler warnings.)

    Summary

    "You're not dead," Pomni said with a frown. "Not yet, at least. You're just — indisposed."

    At that, Jax gave her a long look as his mouth narrowed out into a little line. Then he sighed quietly. It wasn't the way he used to sigh, with dramatic posturing that begged the attention from anyone even remotely listening. It was small. Tired. Reflexive. Then he sat down with his knees to his chest, glaring into the dark water. The only light here, a single streetlamp, glowed weakly.

    "Denial is an ugly color on you. Clashes with your stupid hat."

    "Jax — "

    "I'm gone," he snapped. His voice echoed in the abyss. "Don't you get it? No one comes back from Abstraction. You're not saving me, you're not helping me grow. All you're doing is keeping my body from rotting." Jax's hands worked their way up to his head, squeezing as he growled, "You're talking to a ghost."


    or, a post-canon fix-it fic, featuring the De-Abstraction of Jax. It's messy and it takes time, but it's never too late to try.

    Summary

    Pomni couldn’t fall back asleep.

    This wasn’t a new issue, after all she’d always been a bit of an insomniac. Even in her time before the circus, she’d often found herself struggling to sleep through the night.

    Like every other unwitting night owl, she had her tricks to survive until morning regardless. White noise, a warm drink, or if all else failed, a book.

    None of those tricks were working tonight.

    Which is probably why she ended up in Jax’s tent.

    ⊹ ಄ ⊹˚ 。⋆ 。˚⊹ ಄ ⊹˚ 。⋆ 。˚⊹ ಄ ⊹

    A story in which Pomni cures her insomnia, jailbreaks a mind palace, co-sleeps with an abstraction, and saves her friend, though not necessarily in that order.
