    Summary

    It began with an alert in his email inbox- somebody had altered some code he wrote.
    Not a particularly unusual notification for Grant to get, considering he had been a computer scientist for more than three decades. It was slightly more unusual, however, considering the notification said that the code had been modified by Grant himself- something he had definitely not done- and also considering the system being altered had been shut down more than eighteen years ago.

    From: C&A - LOCAL [HQ]
    ALERT !
    [1337 /usr/ai/agent/caine] DELETED.

    ...What the hell.

    Or: Six people have been living their normal lives, entirely unaware of the copies of their consciousness trapped in a brightly-colored digital hellscape. That is, at least, until said copies escape the Circus, and six people wake up with both sets of memories, determined that the family they formed in a very different reality is one they will find again.

    Summary

    Grandpa Bobbie and his daemon Alba, who died before Robert was born, settled as a bobcat. Not the biggest daemon, but big enough one’d have to start considering the size of spaces when it came to their daemon. Dad and his daemon Solas settled as doberman. To a young kid, this was setting a pattern of bigger and bigger forms as the Robertson legacy continued.

    Robert and Valda rarely ever went small. They did cheetah, tiger, lion, crocodile. All sorts of breeds of huge dogs. Wolves. Predators and hunters, animals befitting a hero who would protect people and hunt down villains.

    Summary

    Two weeks after Caine's return, life in the circus has begun to improve. He is actively trying to make amends: he listens, fulfills requests, and doesn't run any adventures. The humans haven't forgiven him yet, but they no longer hate him.

    By all appearances, Caine should be happy. He's on the right track.
    There's just one problem...

    Caine is starving.

    Summary

    The video goes online four days after the crash.

    “Warning: Pilot Ejection Advised.”

    “Not while we’re still over the city, no- can’t risk this thing blowing up and landing on top of civilians. Maintain cruising altitude, calculate shortest route to minimal population area.”

    “Altitude Locked - Calculating.”

    For a moment, just a split second, Mecha Man visibly hesitates. Then, he switches hands, keeping the flight controls steady while reaching for a panel on the other side of the cockpit. A faint chime sounds, followed by a ringtone. Three repetitions. A voice speaks, too faintly to be heard over the wind, then a louder beep.

    “Hey, buddy,” Mecha Man says, gaze locked onto the viewscreen in front of him, almost directly at the camera recording all of this. “Don’t think I’m going to be able to make it to dinner this weekend after all, sorry."
