oh yeah i forgot about those circus people. i actually rethinked my choices but I'll still post at least about Zooble bc why not.
Zooble's main problem is - about not fitting into others expectations, views, stereotypes. People in society label you as a woman, they label you as a man, as something that they can understand but they can't see what's living inside. You can't either. You were born in the world where is everything needs to be filled in labels and if it doesn't then you're not valid, you're weird, whatever exist inside is wrong and sick. You can be born without any gender and identity from the start but others will force their views on you, will force labels that doesn't respond something inside of you. Trying to shape you into what they want instead.
Those expectations of what they think you should be but can't provide will eventually turn into "Who i am? What am i? Where is me starts and where is forced view ends?". So Zooble tries to find themself in changing a part of their appearance, then another part, again and again before it gets named as something, just so people wouldn't able to label them. They can't label something that changes really often. But because of that you can't find something that is really you, you can't get attached to it, start to love, care. You can't love yourself because of constant changing. You throw it away.
And then imagine waking up in a room full of mirrors. Seeing yourself in one is painful because nothing responds in your heart looking at that reflection. Looking into all these parts that doesn't belong to this comically-toyish body. You can't see yourself under all these colorful layers you put for defence. Others views keep changing you, not because you want to but that's what you used to do.
You wish you were nothing, looked like nothing, sounded like nothing. That identity 'torture' Caine created doesn't help, it keeps fulling the same mechanism that used to save Zooble but now it slowly destroys them. If they had only one body without being able to "fix" anything about it, they would hate it at the start sure but maybe later Zooble had to accept it. Had to love it, take care of it and later start seeing something that belongs to in that reflection. Maybe later you will identify with that body of yours, that's what is you.
Or maybe not. Maybe you'll be forever stuck in that flesh cell and you can't do anything about it.
And this is my own interpretation of them. I hope it was interesting.
