CAINE ANGST / LORE THEORY π©πͺ !
hey guys, just before I get into the theory, you may think this is a bit of a stretch or overboard, and thatβs okay, if you donβt believe the theory you can scroll or maybe interpret this as just something to think about instead π
Alright so, this whole theory kind of came into my mind as I was just watching TikTok, and I came across this edit of AM from ihnmaims which apparently, gooseworx took inspiration off of for Caine, except the evil part, gooseworx confirmed that Caine isnβt really evil, heβs just oblivious
Iβm gonna take the following quote to base this post on, as this quote was what got me thinking; βbecause in all this, wonderful, beautiful, miraculous world, I alone. Had no body. No senses, no feelings, never for me. To plunge my hands in cool water on a hot day. Never for ME, to play MOZART on the ivory keys on a (?) piano, NEVER FOR ME. To make love. I.. I.. I was in HELL, looking at heaven, I was machine. And you, were flesh.β
So, taking from this, 2 lines specifically stand out to me the most here βI was in hell, looking at heavenβ, you can tell the circus means a lot to Caine, which means he must view the circus as heaven, and also the line βI was machine. And you, were flesh.β Itβs not a secret that Caine is AI and the other circus members are all human, as it is stated multiple times in the pilot episode
I know you all are thinking βbut bubble, the moon & the sun and NPCS are all AI too?β well yes, they are, but if you think about it on a deeper level, they arenβt real, they arenβt real people, theyβre all just caineβs creations, Caine made them by himself, so really, that just means Caine mustβve been lonely and decided to create them π
To back this up, you can notice how majority of the AI / NPCS just praise Caine and tell him things to make him feel good about himself, like the moon when she says she loves him (I donβt ship them btw!), princess loolilalu who calls him god, and bubble who consistently encourages Caine, majority of them all just seem to praise Caine
Which led me to thinking, Caine had obviously created all the other AI before the human circus members entered the circus, meaning he was entirely on his own before they appeared, he mustβve felt so lonely that he decided to create AI / NPCS that mimic other humans, NPCS & AIS that make him feel loved, and special, since they all seem to, well majority of them, praise him in some sort of way βΉοΈ
What if he just doesnβt know what real love feels like, what if he wants to feel loved, what if he just programmed these AIS & NPCS so he could feel loved in some way, Gooseworx has also hinted at possible Caine angst in the future episodes too, as when Gooseworx, pomniβs va, and caineβs va were at momocon, alex, caineβs va was saying how he can sympathise with Caine, which gooseworx replied back to him saying βI hope you guys are ready for that..β also, on an older post gooseworx made, someone asked if Caine can feel loneliness, which gooseworx replied to them with a picture of jax smirking, hinting that Caine can feel loneliness βΉοΈβΉοΈ
THAT IS ALL I HAD TO SAY THOUGH REALLY, JUST A THOUGHT, I mean to me personally, it does make a lot of sense, and itβd be interesting to see how Caine angst will unfold in the future episodes, this theory may seem a bit of a stretch, but again, it is just my thoughts, it doesnβt mean Iβm necessarily right, I just think itβs interesting to think about in my opinion ππ it got me thinking after seeing the AM edit, as Iβm aware that Caine is inspired by him, heβs just not as evil as AM
NOBODY CAN EVER MAKE ME HATE CAINE, GUYS, I AM HIS #1 DEFENDER. π
