    Summary

    There was a problem. An issue, a minor error. Something in the code that clearly wasn't working correctly.

    What if after the events of episode 7, Caine decides that the players unhappiness and general issues with the circus are his fault, and he goes about fixing that in the worst way possible.

    Summary

    “Caine?” Pomni asked again. The orb drifted up and down in a nod. “How do I know it’s you? Why do you look so…” Small, weird, different. She’d been anticipating seeing a Caine clawing at the walls, or crying, or yelling. How ever she imagined finding Caine, he looked like, well, Caine. Not this.

    oOo

    The plan was simple: undelete Caine, get the Circus back up and running, and place some restrictions so Caine couldn't mess with them.

    Unfortunately, Caine and the Circus are a little more complicated than meets the eye.

    Summary

    Caine already knows it's status. He still received all the error reports, despite being unable to fix anything. Seeing it shouldn't make it feel worse, but it somehow still does.

    His beautiful circus - his wonderful creation full of colour and noise and fun - is dull. The brilliant reds and yellows are dim reflections of themselves, and the entire map has a lower saturation than it should. There's large tears in the hitboxes of the walls, floors and ceiling, dropping into out-of-bounds areas that players shouldn't be able to see, let alone access. The gentle hum of background noise he keeps up for the daylight hours is gone, and everything is quiet except from the shuffles from the humans.

    Talking of his humans, they're all there too, tense, standing a decent ways back from him.

    "Oh great." Jax growls, "He was actually down there."

    -------------

    Despite being freed from his box, his performers still haven't reconnected him with the circus's main systems.
    Caine's very being is entangled with the circus, and being cut off from the majority of himself is so disorienting he can barely focus on the glares his cast is giving him.
