Ok so I don’t tend to post a lot of things of my own... Buuuuuuuuut I will now 🙃
SO; I created this account on Instagram (@throughthelense.photography) to try to showcase + practice some photography skills and I would be thrilled if some of you would check it out and maybe give a follow or even share it 🙏🥺🥺
彡🫐: Our little bunny regresses to between 0–3 years old. He may age up a little, but that only happens when he tries to suppress his regression and act like a "big kid."
(Kinger is still teaching him that suppressing his emotions is wrong and that he shouldn't feel bad or ashamed when he wants to be little.)
彡🫐: Jax is a very calm baby, but at the same time he's a very difficult baby to deal with and please.
All of this depends on whether he's having good days or bad days, and of course also on who's taking care of him. But he's usually relaxed, plays a lot, and sleeps a lot; he's always in someone's arms, especially Kinger's (figuratively speaking, since he only has hands, but you get the idea).
彡🫐: Most of the time, he wears diapers, partly out of necessity and partly for comfort, though he’s sometimes embarrassed to admit the former. Both Kinger and Ragatha decided it would be best because of his constant nightmares. It was only supposed to be for nighttime at first, but it eventually became a 24/7 thing.
They realized that Jax felt more comfortable that way, even if he never said it out loud, and they never asked him about it directly. They simply accepted it without any issue and let him wear them for as long as he wanted. It was as if they had signed a silent agreement, but it was better that way—it avoided making the little bunny uncomfortable.
彡🫐: He is very picky with food—extremely picky, in fact. There’s hardly a day that goes by without him throwing a little tantrum over food he doesn’t like. Ragatha is the one who feeds him, and she’s always trying to trick him with little tactics, like pretending the spoon is an airplane or passing one food off as another. No matter how much Jax pouts, he always falls for her tricks.
Even so, if things get complicated, the only person who can convince him to eat is Pomni; all it takes is for her to promise him an afternoon of games to pass the time. (He’ll end up agreeing, and a few hours later you’ll probably find them building block towers together.)
彡🫐: He has lots of textured toys and chew toys—they’re his favorites. Zooble was the one who got them for him after noticing that when Kinger was carrying him around, he would often nibble on his robe. That was the first time Zooble gave him something for his regression. She wasn’t entirely sure why she did it; she didn’t know if it was because she was annoyed that Jax kept chewing on everyone’s things, or maybe because he looked so anxious, as if he were searching for something more comforting than his pacifier... or maybe it was both.
Jax’s reaction was complete surprise when he received the gift, which only made things more awkward between them. But once he accepted it, he had no idea that it would only be the beginning—Zooble would gradually gain confidence and start giving him more things.
彡🫐: His pacifier has sometimes been his greatest lifesaver, because Jax knows that when he’s little, he becomes nonverbal, and as a result, words either slip away from him or become difficult to say properly. Kinger knows this too, so he never pushes him too hard, since he’s already familiar with his baby’s little habits. Looking at the other side of the coin, Gangle is the one who insists the most, because she finds the way he talks when he regresses far too adorable. So she uses the excuse of “teaching him new words” just so she can hear him speak. She doesn’t get very far, though—Jax gets really embarrassed and thinks she’s only doing it to make fun of him.
(She only manages to hear him when he’s at a younger age, and all he does is babble.)
彡🫐: Whenever Caine comes up with a new adventure and Jax is in regression, Kinger usually carries him in a baby carrier along with a diaper bag filled with everything he might need (an idea entirely from Ragatha). She tends to be very cautious, so she packs a little bit of everything: diapers, one or two bottles of milk, teething toys, regular toys, baby wipes, light snacks for the journey, and a spare pacifier.
彡🫐: His tantrums can be difficult to handle, especially when no one knows exactly what he wants. He usually responds only with whines and cries, and only very rarely with hitting.
Kinger and Ragatha are incredibly patient and do everything they can to keep the situation from ending badly. If necessary, they’ll pick him up and rock him to keep him calm. They hate seeing him cry, and Ragatha especially struggles because she feels the pressure of not knowing what to do. In the end, they usually manage to calm him down with a bottle of milk and gentle strokes along his ears.
Zooble tends to get irritated easily by his tantrums. She would rather step away and wait for the chaos to pass, but sometimes her own mind betrays her, and she ends up staying to help however she can. When Kinger and Ragatha aren’t around, she simply sits with him and lets him cry in her lap while rubbing circles on his back. In these situations, there’s never any communication, but Zooble doesn’t need words to comfort him.
Pomni and Gangle, on the other hand, are a whole different case. They never know what to do in those moments, and Gangle is capable of starting to cry as well just from the tension. With a lot of effort, they manage to stop Jax’s tears through games or the funny faces Pomni makes to get him to laugh.
彡🫐: Sometimes Jax invites himself over to draw with Gangle. He goes to her room, knocks, and patiently waits for an answer. Gangle opens the door, and since she already knows what he wants, she lets him in. All of this happens under Zooble’s supervision. She knows that the relationship between those two has never been healthy, so better safe than sorry, according to her. In reality, though, she mostly stays to watch them draw while sipping on a drink. From her perspective, they look very cute getting along so well.
The peace doesn’t last very long, because Jax gets frustrated when his drawings don’t turn out as well as Gangle’s.
彡🫐: The first person to find out about his regression was Ribbit. She had gone to Jax’s room looking for him so she and Kaufmo could pull some kind of prank. She opened the door and expected anything except finding him sitting there, playing with his pacifier. She didn’t understand it right away, but it only took a moment to connect the dots as she remembered all those little signs Jax had shown through his behavior—like nibbling on his thumb while sleeping on the couches, throwing little fits whenever he got angry, or sometimes getting stuck like a scratched record when he was trying to talk.
Ribbit had always been a very understanding person, and in that moment she knew she had to be there to support him. Even if she didn’t fully understand how regression worked, she was willing to take the first step.
彡🫐: Everyone in the circus knows about Jax’s regression, though Caine is still trying to understand it. The frequency with which he regresses is almost constant. He never wants to, but his mind eventually gives in. Of course, there are days when he doesn’t regress at all, and coincidentally those are the days when he becomes unbearable. He really doesn’t like being little and will do everything he can to suppress it. He has gotten to the point of almost abstracting because of it, and now he has to put up with being followed around everywhere (for safety reasons).
If it weren’t for Pomni and Kinger keeping him in check, he’d probably throw a huge fit and make a scene about how “I don’t care about anyone,” “I want to be alone,” “I don’t need anyone’s help,” and so on. If it does come to that, Kinger makes Jax apologize to the others for being rude and using bad language. If he doesn’t want to apologize directly, he’s given the option to do it through letters instead. (It’s not a punishment, just something to help Jax learn that words can hurt people.)
He truly dislikes his regression and will do everything he can to repress it. He has pushed himself to the point of nearly abstracting because of it, and now he has to deal with the fact that people follow him around wherever he goes (for safety reasons).
彡🫐: He tries to avoid everyone when he isn’t in regression, all because of the embarrassment he feels. He believes it isn’t right or that he’s doing something wrong. He feels that the others only take care of him out of pity, or that they’re only doing it to make fun of him.
Jax has had many talks with Kinger about this. Kinger manages to convince him that he shouldn’t feel bad for wanting that coping mechanism. Jax accepts it, but after a while he ends up falling back into the same mindset. Kinger’s solution is to spoil him a lot; that tends to make his little bunny regress more quickly.
It’s not that he wants to control his mind—he just does whatever he can to make him feel better, just like his wife, Queenie, used to do before she was gone.
Here are the headcanons I promised. I was going to write more, but this is all I could come up with. I'll make more, and any ideas you have are more than welcome. ♥︎
I used the questions you asked me to create the headcanons, thanks! :)
I wrote it quickly because I have other things to do, sorry if anything is misspelled...
(By the way, I wanted to mention that there won't be any spoilers for the movie until it premieres on YouTube.)
6 months past after Caines death and Kinger is getting closer and closer to abstraction.
He needs to make things right.
He brings Caine back.
Caine is between 1 - 4 months old here. He’s very talkative and he’s won the hearts of everyone but Jax.
Kinger can’t live his life with a bucket on his head and while it’s nice to talk to him normally. Being lucid 24/7 is draining for his mental health. So he has a break from the bucket and the racing thoughts and allows himself to breathe. While he ends up losing his responsible logic, he is still very much caring of Caine. The little AI is very influential on Kinger and persuades him to do activity’s with him.
Of course this is in a stage where Caine can only babble and Kinger is insane.
No one knows how they are communicating with eachother.
Jax is a very good little baby but I bet he can get a little out of hand. I could imagine him saying something mean to Gangle as a "joke" and ending up being sent to the naughty corner for a time out.
● It seems this bunny had a bad day.
Kinger doesn't like sending him to the corner, but if he doesn't, Jax will probably behave even worse. When time is about to run out, Jax starts to cry, and that's when Kinger comes in to comfort him and show him that what he did wasn't right.
For some reason I like to see interaction between Jax and Glangle; these two little guys could get along very well and very badly at the same time.
(Don't let anyone notice that I stopped wanting to draw almost at the end.)
● It's no surprise that Queenie was one of the first people to discover Jax's regression, as she kept an eye on the rabbit whenever she could or whenever he allowed her to.
Queenie never stopped emitting a maternal energy, whether with Jax or the others. This annoyed the rabbit when he was himself, but when he was at his smallest and most vulnerable, he loved her very much. He loved the affection and protection that the chess queen always gave him.
When Jax was in his little space, she always made sure to make him feel comfortable or keep him in a safe environment. She was very overprotective of her little one because she knew how sensitive he was to certain things and didn't want anything bad to happen to him.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
They developed a special bond between mother and son, like that of a caterpillar about to become a butterfly. Queenie adored her little one; she loved teaching him new things, telling him bedtime stories, rocking him to sleep, and, without a doubt, she loved it when her bunny would ask her with those tender little eyes to hold him.
When Jax was no longer in his little space, he became even more unbearable. He was ashamed that his mom cared for him, and even ashamed to acknowledge her as such. He struggled to admit that he liked how she treated him, the security she gave him when she cuddled him and gave him his bottle, when she praised him for the smallest things, or when she stayed with him in his room when he was scared.
Although he always maintained an indifferent attitude, Queenie didn't need him to tell her; she already knew how much he loved it, and despite his tantrums or bad behavior, he would never stop loving his little butterfly.
"I'm sorry, little one..."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I wanted to write a little more than usual; I like to think that Queenie would have been a wonderful mother to Jax or to the others.
Since all I do is pretend to be insane with my requests, I'm leaving this as compensation hehehe...
I see that all your questions and requests are very interesting, and I will obviously answer them all. I apologize if I take a while; sometimes I lack inspiration. (ಡ᎔ಡ)
