    Summary

    Caine has come a long way since coming back to the Circus. He has a lot to work through still, and some problems he just can't handle on his own.
    Ragatha and Pomni have plenty of thoughts on the situation.

    Or:

    I saw a youtube video of Caine using his crash-out form to play with Pomni and I fell in love with the idea.

    But how would they get to that point? I'm sure it wasn't easy.

    Summary

    What is love? Why does it hurt? And how can it be that an AI may want more?

    He has always loved his humans; thought they did too. Took a lot of effort to comprehend that love could only exist with care and trust. Now that he has it at reach, real as it can be... It is still a puzzle. One that he wants to solve. Eros, Ludus, Storge, Mania, Agape and Pragma. Far too many types, ones he will need to ponder carefully while he works on a certain update...

    Too many confounding questions. It scares him. He does not understand; not his own feelings, not hers.
    "I never programmed you to say you loved me."
    She understood better than him.
    "I know."

    ----------
    An examination of Caine as an AI with human feelings and fears. He wishes to know what love is, something that has far too many formats that he can't read. He is Ace, but that is for him to figure out as he works on the SEX update. Non-explicit but touches on the subject (gender, sexuality, anatomy, etc.)

    Summary

    Caine looks around, trying to understand what his sensors are receiving but when he tries to access them, they're just not there.

    Not there…

    Is he blind?

    He practically is!

    What's the point of seeing shapes if he can't receive the data connected to each model?!

    or

    When Kinger deletes Caine, the system throws him out of the Circus and into the macroverse... now what?

    (Next chapter will be posted on July 26th)
