    Summary

    Back in the real world, Pomni is trying to readjust to average, boring, completely non-amazing-non-digital reality.

    When she runs into an all too familiar asshole, she’s forced to fully confront what exactly the Circus is, the way it’s impacted her and her friends, and more pressingly: how it’s entered the real world.

    Jax and Pomni must hunt down the other four members of their digital squad, and quickly, as the new tech company ‘C/A’ is quickly making its way into the spotlight and spells out nothing but trouble.

    Summary

    “What would you do if I abstracted tomorrow?”

    Jax's voice was steady, yet a flicker of hesitation danced in his eyes.
    "I’d move on." He turned his head towards her, a slow and deliberate motion as he added, "And probably forget about you." He tilted his head slightly

    “Okay… Okay… I understand…”

    A low scoff escaped Jax's lips, followed by a soft chuckle as he turned back to meet her gaze. “Geez, you really can’t take a joke, can you?” His expression shifted as he blinked and surveyed his surroundings. No longer in the main area and Pomni had vanished from sight

    Summary

    The problem here was that Jax had someone waiting for him…but the one person he wanted to see again is dead. He killed her…the only person in his life who ever mattered. Jax couldn’t go back. Not to that house, not to that shitty town. Not back on those long, desolate roads.  

    ---

    A deeper look into Jax's panic attack, breakdown, and subsequent flashbacks to an eerie road at the end of Episode 7. It appears as if whatever's waiting for him in the outside world is far more horrifying than being trapped in the circus......

    Summary

    After the fight in episode 6 Pomni starts to really close herself off. While she didn't exactly believe Jax when he said they were never friends it still hurts, a lot. when she starts to notice a glitch on her arm here and there it only causes her to lock herself away more, not wanting to hurt anyone. she really believes she's done for when Jax gets into her room using his keys, having gotten worried when she didn't show up for a few days and manages to pull her from abstraction.

    Summary

    “Ah! Dish duty! Let’s see… who’s up this time.”

    Ragatha gave Kinger a gentle, knowing pat on the shoulder. “Kinger, we know who’s up. We all rotated it last week.”

    “No no, I want to do the reveal. Like a game show!" He cleared his throat theatrically. “Tonight’s lucky contestants areeeee… Zooble and Jax!"

    Summary

    Breath catching in his throat, he spins his entire body around to stare at it, locking eyes with the darkness that should not be there.

    It feels like gazing into the abyss itself.

    A phrase pops into his head, something about staring into the abyss. Or was it the void...?

    A neon eye opens in the centre of the black mass.

    It stares back.

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

    Jax hides away in his room and thinks everything is fine. It's not.

    Summary

    Following their fight, Jax begins to try to make Pomni hate him. But the Jester not only refuses too, she has her own plan: to force Jax into a situation were he is forced to admit he cares about her.

    Her plan: to force him into the role he's never wanted to cross into. The villain.

    Only, she's started a game where there are no winners. But perhaps by losing, these two can find common ground. Especially when they become closer than anyone, even them, could ever Imagine...

    Summary

    Caine had given the members of the Circus something they never thought they would have... but what if that little piece of information gave them more than what they had been shown?...

    Or

    Caine gives them something they thought they would never see again, and all the memories (good and bad) come flooding back?

    Summary

    "The funny one..." she muttered, her back still turned to Jax whose stomach was twisting in a weird sense of déjà-vu. He opened his mouth to say something, defend himself, go back on everything, apologize again, cry, anything, but she suddenly spun around to face him.
    "'The funny one', huh?" her usually melodic voice was taking on a more aggressive tone, "well, I'M. NOT. LAUGHING!" she yelled, hurling the block at the ground. Jax flinched and involuntarily took a step back, the knot in his stomach growing as he looked into her eyes and, oh...

    She was crying.

     

    (aka Jax goes to apologize to Pomni in hopes of getting her to stop ignoring him after their fight but is instead faced with a confrontation resulting in much more than that)

    Summary

    What if Pomni had shot herself at the end of episode 6 (as we all expected)?

    Jax has done his best to put up as many walls as he could since Ribbit abstracted. How is it that this little jester has been able to break every single one of them down?

    Or

    Jax has a soft spot for Pomni 'cause he thinks she's adorable, but he knows that she deserves much better than him. He tries his best to avoid his feelings while sparing hers, but low-key loses his mind in the process. Don't worry, Pomni can find it.

    Summary

    Pomni pulls the trigger, gun poised to her head-- and in that moment, Jax's carefully constructed world is shattered. Pomni and Jax are left to collectively contemplate the consequences of their actions as the thin veil of the circus's sterile interface begins to lift just for them, showing a much darker reality beneath the surface. They spiral into a maddened world which each step they take. Obscurity awaits if this corruption spreads, and the only way to survive this hell is by relying on each other as they try to discover the truth behind the circus.

    Summary

    The problem with Caine's AI was never his adventures... It was the fact that he was not human, it was an Artificial Intelligence.

    “Welcome to The Amazing Digital Circus!”

    “My name is Pompom!”

    “And my name is Jaxster!”

    The Circus has two new ringmasters! The cast of abstracted characters is back now that the remaining human case has escaped, their artificial intelligence is no longer that artificial...
