    Summary

    dum spi·ro, spe·ro
    (latin): while i breath, i hope

    · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·

    Four months have passed since Jax abstracted.
    Pomni still wishes she had gone with him.

    Unwilling to let this wish come true, Caine takes drastic measures: he manages to save a fraction of Jax's core brain scans — but a mind completely wiped of its memories is a heavier price than anyone anticipated paying.

    Summary

    Abstraction is permanent.

    That doesn't mean unchanging.

    Or: Returning to a life you thought you left behind forever, what happens when your survival depends on your mental stability and one very determined jester, and does gender even matter when you're not a real person?

    *SPOILER HEAVY*
    *SPOILERS IN SUMMARY*
    *READ THE TAGS*

    After discovering that there may be a way to come back from abstraction, Caine works on slowly bringing each one back, piece by piece, while also keeping up with the humans… interesting requests.

    Jax, post abstraction, starts going down a rabbit hole (pun intended) of self discovery and reflection, including some much needed apologies. While she’s still kinda an asshole, and it’ll take time to rebuild bridges… at least she’s trying.

    She’s not coming out of the closet, though. You can drag her out dead.

    Summary

    The world where there wasn't a brain scan, where humans were dragged into a computer against their will... it's not a world with happy endings. And when the humans are ejected from the Circus, missing one of their own, they don't just get to go back to their lives. There's hospitals, and police, and desperately trying to be believed, followed by just as desperately trying to be left alone. But the one thing they have is each other. They have each other and that's never going to change.

    TADC AU – Non-SOMA, Escape the Circus. Everyone is insanely codependent and the way they got out was so traumatizing they can barely talk about it. Pomni tries her best to hold everyone together, while also getting re-used to a life outside, and wondering which world was actually better.

    MAY become Gangle/Zooble and/or Jax/Pomni if it goes on long enough, but most of the fic is focused on their platonic found family bond. MULTIPLE Trigger Warnings, both tagged and untagged; untagged will be labelled at the top of chapters. Viewer Discretion Advised.

However, Zooble keeps trying to help her and doesn't know how long they can keep the secret.

    In the human world,

    Summary

    SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 9!!

    ' She can’t help her mind wandering though, back to a topic that’s been a frequent visitor in her mind for weeks now, relentlessly pounding against her skull.

    Caine had come up to them two months prior, practically glitching with excitement, sharing that they may be able to potentially heal abstraction. He wasn’t positive, but he’d been working closely in the digital files of the Circus lately, giving himself something to do in between their regular activities. He found that the files of their lost friends still existed, but were corrupted, damaged, though fixable, if he was looking at it correctly at least. He couldn’t promise anything, but he had hope that they could actually do something.

    This had caused excitement to rise within the group, eyes sparkling and discussion rampant. Voices had overlapped each other, and Pomni couldn’t help the heaviness on her chest of their most recent cast member lost lightening a bit at the positivity of the group, eyes drifting to the large circus tent he resided in most days, when he wasn’t in the aquarium with the others.
