    Summary

    Remember that funny bit at the end of episode 3? Where Caine and Zooble switched who was on the therapy couch? What if Caine went into a little more detail than just his thoughts on the wild west.

    And by detail I mean Zooble gets answers and its- well, like pulling teeth.

    Edit: No longer Zooble interrogating Caine, as I am writing more for this. Now everyone gets to interrogate him. Yay!

    Includes: hardware facts! Software jokes! Inaccurate portrayal of AI! Everyone treating the circus like it’s real life while Caine is like HeHe HoHo, I’m a funny silly video game! Don’t worry about the darkness that grows within me, let me tell you about RAM.

    Summary

    Accepting the chance to join Pomni and her crew at the Circus, Gummigoo couldn’t have anticipated the fallout her invitation would cause. Now without his one connection, the ex-bandit is trapped in a new digital hellscape, surrounded by complete strangers and guilt over the fate of his mates – and of Pomni’s fate, wondering if taking her offer was worth that cost. After all, he’s an NPC, not even remotely like the humans that he feels isolated from, never mind there’s always the chance that Caine will snap him away too.

    But there’s almost no time to grieve or ponder these concerns – there’s adventure to be had, and Caine’s whipped a spooktacular adventure (with tailoring to what Zooble likes)! Gummigoo doesn’t get a choice to sit out, and finds himself in a house of horrors, complete with loosely related thematic parallels.

    And yet, he might be able to connect with one person in the Circus. Perhaps, things might start becoming a bit brighter.

    Summary

    . . . . . . . . . . . .

    “King had no time to dwell on it, however, as he typed in the last line of code and pressed enter. By now, everything was unstable. He could even feel himself shake and glitch out (it felt almost like his skin was being torn off and put back on over and over again). The computer put on a loading bar, and he watched it go forward before reaching the very edge and stopping right before completing.

    ‘[BOINK!]’ he cursed as he reached out and shook the console.

    The bar held still for an agonizing minute, in which Kinger could feel his insides being mixed up, a painful, nauseating feeling, but he held his ground and kept his eyes locked onto the computer screen.

    ‘For the love of God please,’ he said and smacked it with his hand. The bar finally moved and dinging sounded, not only from the computer, but from seemingly everywhere around him. The glitching stopped, and Kinger breathed a sigh of relief as everything stilled.”

    . . . . . . . . . . . .

    Or, alternatively:

    What if Kinger had not accidentally killed Caine?
