AU Idea — Developer JAX
Jax arrives at the circus before Ragatha, at a very young age. Kinger is in his final days of lucidity. His wife grows more and more reserved and distant, and his current group of companions looks increasingly depressed, feeling less human with each passing day.
Kinger is determined: if he can’t find a way out, then at the very least he wants to try to make life in the circus better. He has the skills to do it, but every day his mind feels more lost. He fears what will happen to his wife on the day his mind finally gives out, and he can’t find an answer as to why his brain is deteriorating.
He tries to stay calm, but with every passing day, his desperation grows.
Amid his worries—not only about his own mind, but also about his companions—an idea comes to him. A dangerous one… but one that might work.
He could pass on his knowledge.
He can do it. He doesn’t have a master’s degree, but he knows that if he really tries, he could teach someone. He just needs to think about who.
The opportunity comes in the form of a purple rabbit—very young, a bit aggressive, but also extremely smart. He realizes it the moment the kid tries to steal his key.
This kid has potential.
