    Summary

    Christine came back from the impossible with scars no one could see. She was supposed to be moving on: going back to work, learning how to be a real person again, and pretending the daily flashbacks were not a problem.

    Then Cam walked into her life, sharp-tongued, legally questionable, and carrying oddly similar damage.

    How long was she supposed to wait before trusting him with who she used to be?

    Or: a post-circus funnybunny-centric story about identity, grief, and getting the gang back together again. takes place summer of 2026, based on lore up to ep 7 ♡

    Summary

    "We were so worried, we heard you—" Ragatha starts, and then looks up. She meets Jax's gaze dead-on, and goes silent. Tears brim in the corner of her eye. Her hand flies up to cover her mouth. He can't tell if the look on her face is relief or fear.

    Gangle's staring at him like she's seen a ghost. Pomni slowly raises to her feet, brows furrowed. She winces as every movement jars her wavering form.

    Cowered on the floor, panting, confused and disoriented, with everyone standing above him, taller than him… it reminds Jax of something deeply unpleasant. They're all staring at him. They're all seeing him.

    Jax knows they're not going to like what they see.

    His breath quickens until his head is spinning, and he feels like he's going to vomit. He forces himself upwards with a frustrated cry, swaying in place, and then turns and bolts towards his room as fast as he can.

    "NO!" Pomni screams.

    (or: pomni pulls jax back from the brink.)

    Summary

    “I just,” Pomni whispered, doing this little slow-blink that drove him nuts right up at him, and his heart clenched. She seemed surprised to admit, “I can’t think of anything to say.”

    Jax thought that someone could have driven a train through the place right now and still he wouldn’t have turned away from her. The truth was he didn’t have any ideas himself of what to say, but in disclaiming this herself she hadn’t said anything he needed to respond to, anyway. He could have stayed silent and they both would have been content with that, he thought. But her eyes were so open and honest and there was this squeezing feeling in his chest that felt deeper than a heartbeat, and he heard his own voice pipe up, anyway. 

    “I …” he whispered. Quietly admitting,  “Me, neither.”

    Summary

    She peered over at him. “Shut the door.”

    Jax was staring at her in a way she wasn’t sure she’d seen before. His expression was so … open. It was the only word that came to mind. He seemed both apprehensive and prepared to absorb whatever she threw at him at the same time.

    Maybe that meant his guard was up—but he did as she asked, anyway, putting a hand on the door and pushing until it shut with a click.

    (Or: Pomni attends Zooble and Gangle's marriage reception, and Jax takes her home after.)

    Summary

    Maybe Jax needed to go through a bit of extra trauma to really see everything - and someone - through new eyes.
    (This is a very slow burn, with eventual smut. But until then I hope you enjoy squirming Jax and the fluffy romance.)
