    Summary

    What were the stages of grief again?

    Denial, Jax remembers. He knows that one. It’s the first on the list, the one that clues people in that it’s developing grief in the first place. Not that he’s grieving. That was silly. And a straight up delusional take on his situation. He doesn’t grieve.

    Cartoonish purple rabbits don’t grieve.

    The dead can’t speak, the guilty don’t deserve to. Pomni has Thoughts™ and makes it Jax’s whole problem.

    (Or: the one where she gives one last push.)

    Summary

    It’s been a while since Caine died, they’ve been rebuilding the circus but by bit! But Jax (now a woman and character arced) wakes up in the past (ep 8)… it takes her embarrassingly long to realize it.

    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

    “Hiding something? What, no! I wouldn’t – I’d never – ”

    “You know what? ƒμ©* it.” With a huff, Zooble yanked at the tablet in Ragatha’s hands, hard. Pomni caught how the little seams fixing Ragatha’s arms to her shoulders flexed, threatening to give way. She had to let go before Zooble ripped her forearms clean off. Zooble swiped through the tablet almost angrily as they muttered, “I don’t even know what you’re so pressed about. It’s not like your derby rider was that pretentious about – ”

    Zooble cut themself off and went very, very silent.

    Pomni’s mouth went dry. Dryer than it’d been even after a stress of time without real water. She watched, scared for a reason she couldn’t place, as both of Zooble’s detachable eyes widened. She could have sworn that their hot pink face turned almost salmon for a quick second before returning to its original shade. They set down the tablet and turned.

    “Ragatha,” they said slowly, “why does the catalogue of NPCs include a mock-up of Jax?”

    Summary

    Caine's first attempt at a trust exercise fell flat on its face. And that's being nice since not even 5 minutes after trying to start said exercise, the Circus members became wild animals, shooting each other for fun. But not to worry, this time he was gonna get it right! No guns! No way for the members to benefit from hurting each other! They had to truly, completely trust each other as each duo tried navigating a maze, where Character A was completely fine, but didn't know where to go. And Character B was blind, mute, and unable to move on their own, but knew the exact way out of the maze! Simple! Easy! Trustworthy!
    Nothing could go wrong!

    ...that is.... of course...
    Unless Character B had a history of hurting and tormenting Character A. And now Character B was at the complete and total whims of Character A.
    And maybe, juuuust maybe... Character A was named Ragatha, and Character B was named Jax.
