    Summary

    Everything has gone horribly for Caine and he ends up being tossed in the recycle bin to reflect on his horrific actions towards the humans he adored. Luckily, his most treasured item from the humans was deleted along with him, giving him bittersweet comfort. But as he sits and waits to be permanently deleted, he comes face to face with the sins of his past.

    ~OR~

    Caine tortures the humans, gets sent to the recycle bin, and is faced with the wrath of Abel, the brother he consumed long ago.

    Summary

    No one in the circus was prepared for the aftermath of Caine almost killing them... how were they supposed to react to their once bombastic ringmaster suddenly not knowing what to do with himself? How does anyone recover from that torment? How would they live with the guilt?

    Well, admittedly, the guilt was mostly Pomni's. She dealt the final blow that broke Caine's composure, after all... it was only natural that she felt it the most.

    Is that what drove her to want to fix him? Or did fate's script write a different path for her and her friends?
