"You Look Familiar!"

Bill Cipher recognizes Caine from their old flat days. Yes, I'm continuing it. It's spooky how my humor fits them tbh.

[kiruyeen]

tbh i also hate how alan depicted the valkyries so bad

1st of all i initially thought they were literally bullying purple n mango. bc thats literally what high school girls do when they see u doing smth weird or stupid. they laugh at you. its not cute or an act of endearment unless you think women are just there to think youre cute.

2nd of all their entire personality became whimsical feminine giggly angelic residents. valkyrie are female angelic figures yes but from a warrior culture that deeply respected women and their capabilities, in anything else but especially war and other physical labor alan would consider "masculine".

also theyre apperantly neutral mobs. they would have gone after that player. but noo theyre too petite and frail and feminine they cant protect themselves they need a guy to do them justice 🥺

they cant even use the excuse of "oh they just went accurate to the mod" because THEY DIDNT!

hell the VILLAGERS. literal passive mobs whos only defense in vanilla are the guardian constructs they build, are easily taught to defend themselves in this series, and the color gang had their ass handed to them by a COOK. but theyre stereotypically implied to be masculine so its acceptable. but deitic figures for a warrior culture where even the women were active warriors? where theyre normally fully capable of defending themselves in-game? nooo they cant do anything they need their queen or some other savior for their poor maiden selves

like. Alan and his writers' misogyny goes way deeper than just. "ohh all the established female characters just happen to be motives and nothing more and he doesnt like his char getting mistaken for a girl". they take formidable and self sufficient characters and make them frail and defenseless just because theyre women

also i dont like that the initial reaction to mango building any connection with anyone other than the color gang ESPECIALLY a woman immediately made people go "wow!!! romance!!! now!!!" but like. thats a fandom issue not a writing issue n therefore not the point of this post

THE ARCHIVE IS DOWN AAAAAAAAAAAA-

Distraction

Also I think Jax can be red as both MtF and FtM trans

I've seen more MtF egg headcanons and ye, I see it that way too

But what if prior to coming to the circus Jax was a trans man in a hostile environment, his identity denied and mocked.

And it just kind of worked out that his digital avatar was assigned the correct gender.

Oh my baby boy I would have panic attacks about returning to the real world too

Of course he would press that button in a heartbeat

Would everyone please consult the graph

[getwildwaved]

Okay okay I get the tranfem!Jax thing now (it is literally RIGHT there it's so OBVIOUS) but may I just ask:

Is there a possibility that Jax could be transmasc instead? Now hear me out-

Caine said that the body one has in the circus is based on one's mind, could it imply that Jax is actually transmasc instead?

I don't really know if a person's voice is also altered based on their mind in the circus (it's really a low possibility) but if that's the case then that would explain why Jax is constantly presenting himself as masculine because with that kind of voice and personality he doesn't want to present himself as feminine. It's like he finally got the chance to embrace his masculine side, albeit a bit stereotypically (is that normal for transmasc people? /gen)

There's also Gooseworx's own responses which kind of made me feel like that. Especially the one where she was asked about Jax being a Tumblr sexyman.

And don't get me started on him mainly picking on the girls as well, it really does feel he's trying to fit into a stereotypical masculine identity, in an almost exaggerated sense as well I guess.

Then there's his room, we all know a stereotypical little girl's room when we see it. The other theories regarding his room are incredible yes, but could this room be a reflection of Jax's real life childhood room?

By the way I don't consider myself transmasc or transfem, and I don't think I've experienced the dysphoria regarding gender expression and gender identity to even fully grasp the idea, but the speculation of Jax being transfem really got me thinking.

Initially I was super into the idea of Jax being transfem, but the possibility of him being transmasc kept bugging me. Either way, it's a win.

Also would this theory be impossible if their voices really don't change?

[andonlyafoolwouldsaythat]

Saw this in the YT comments. It's not a lot but I wanted to make sure it didn't go completely unnoticed.

(CLI = Command Line Interface. The text-based interface you see in a terminal, like the one Kinger types in.)

They’ll try to delete the program the moment they escape💔

rip.

ep7 just made me love Caine so much more aaaah he's so silly

[smallpwbbles]

The next time Caine calls for an adventure is gonna be so awkward

[3hkowalski]

No matter how hard you try, you’ll never fit in.

He isn’t the missing piece,

he’s the extra one no one needs

[For those comments who discovered that Caine fits next to Kinger: YES you're right! His only place was there at the edge, left out. Because Kinger is too kind to push him away.]

King of the Circus 🦋👑🎪

[3hkowalski]

Just leaving a little star right here ⭐

you can claim it after ep8…

UPDATE: THIS AGED BADLY

[missyfrs]

EVERYTHING on Kinger's Screen in Episode 8:

BOMBSHELL AFTER BOMBSHELL

1: The circus members are brain scans, this folder might be the abstracted members. CA_NeuralScans (Obsolete)

2: 'Abel' did exist, and the circles at the beginning of the episode were most likely Caine killing 'Abel'.

3: The circus was created on October 30th, 1996. Kinger's password is Queenie, and this confirms again that Kinger was his username.

4: Ragatha entered the circus on October 15th 2008, Scratch entered the same day but in 1999, and Caine in 1996. Interestingly enough, he is written in LISP, which has links to AutoCAD the modeling software.

5: Not much to actually say here, Caine's internals are protected by both him and bubble.

6: Assuming the GreenGrounds is the circus, Kinger was likely trying to inject the torment program (what the circus members are being tortured with??) with a daemon (automated process) in order to stop it.

Note a censored name [G_AN_]. My guess is on Grant lmao

Since these pictures are covered by Caine and Bubble, I'll write what they probably say. "This IS a wacky word, but WRONG word!" "System selecting SAFEST option for reliability, cancel automatic selection? [Y/N]" "Yes" "Which backup do you want?" "C" "NONE Selected"

"Interpreted as: DELETE" "Confirm deletion of current unstable program (or AI)?" "No" "Negative response! inverting to (?) per (?) protocols!" "DELETE THIS MOTHER*****R, HAHAHAHAHAaaaaaaaaaaaa" "No" "Errored: Proceeding with ORIGINAL decision" "Actually you're CONFUSED let me HELP, should this program EXIST [Y/N]" "Yes" "Override instruction error falling back to default metric" (Kinger tries to yet again load a backup and stun Caine here) "Are you really going to delete Caine? [Y/N]" "YES" (This is where he accidentally hit delete)
