So that was that.
There was no exit.
Everyone was at a loss at what they had loss (despite already having losing it before all of this).
You were fine (as fine as a suicidal person could get, haha).
And then there was the other odd one out:
Jax.
The one who laid the weighted blanket of tension over the group.
The one who "kept them in the circus".
You didn't understand why they wanted to leave.
Or, no, you could make a logical conclusion, but…
There was no logical left, now was there?
In this place, actions had no consequences.
Aside from of the one that put you in here in the first place.
Ironic, haha.
Back to Jax.
You could rationalize that he wasn't ready to accept that there was an outside—a reality, but if you were still here, after all this time, then didn't that mean that there was no one waiting on the other side (unless—)?
You knew for a fact no one was morning your disappearance. There was a chance that someone shed a tear for the others (too little, too late), but Jax?
No, there was no one, in fact, there were those who would hunt him. So he ran (just like you), and he couldn't accept being thrown back into that hell.
You wondered.
What did he see that day, right before he had pushed the button.
"Hello, my little fortuitous fruitcakes!"
You blinked, then focused on Caine.
Oh.
Oh.
This was gonna be interesting.
Time to focus, Lens.
I wrote this in like 20 minutes. I have many thoughts, but this is about the only string of words I could process into something.
My fixation on Jax is very quickly becoming a fixation on the ensemble as a whole, and just "what would happen if you were self-aware, but uncaring?"
You poor, poor POOR unfortunate soul, imagine having this guy for a brother!
You think everyone else has it tough with him? You get the brunt of everything!
I think the only way you'd survive is if you're far more chaotic or equally as chaotic.
Dude definitely tries to sacrifice you.
He has probably done so before.
I'm not saying you should steal the wafer gun and smack him over the head with it but you should steal the wafer gun and smack him over the head with it.
I feel bad for everyone else who gets wrapped up in the sibling warfare that inevitably happens between you, I'm talking things getting thrown, do they have wild animals NPCs? If they do they're getting unleashed into your room.
He gets verbally bullied, you call him a Play-Doh creation, a bald bunny, built like Gumby etc etc
If you have like, stink bombs or something their getting set off,
Booby-trap his room home alone style and set him on fire or something.
Heaven forbid there's an adventure involving dentists, if neither of you can experiment on Caine then you're operating on his yellow bunny teeth.
You should not have a dentistry license!
I feel like, Like most sibling relationships y'all will defend the other if someone says something about the them.
You should totally throw carrots at him.
You definitely laugh at him when he has to work at the notMcDonald's™
Laugh at him. Cook him in the fryer.
Good evenin' folks! I do hope you enjoyed this, I haven't written anything for the amazing digital circus despite it being on my fandom list for like, two months so what better way to start then with the purple rabbit!
Thank you for tunin' on in and I hope you all have a wonderful night!
I'm probablyyyyyy gonna do these with the rest of the cast some day, if I remember.
RAGATHA-
• Does everybody consider her like a mother figure, or is it just me? (It definitely isn't 😭)
• Okay, so she'd DEFINITELY be a mother figure to you or some sort of parental figure. Like there's no doubt about it.
• I have a personal hc that she would tuck you in if you were really young.. or if you just wanted to be tucked in, but SHSHHSHSHSHHHH
• 1000000% protects you from Jax because of how horrible he is. (he's such a bad influence.)
• If you look at the order of the rooms in the hall, there's an empty space across from Ragatha's room.. you'd probably stay there if you could. (From my knowledge, if that happened, your room would be diagonal from Jax's and next to Pomni's.)
JAX -
oh boy.
• Okay, so Jax is my favorite and all, but does anybody think he would actually be RESPONSIBLE with a kid?
• Just because you're younger does NOT mean he is nicer to you. I mean, maybe he's a slight bit nicer to you, maybe.. BUT NOT BY MUCH
• If you ever call him out on being a little nicer, he will literally do the worst. Like you thought how he was with Gangle was bad? Oh god.
Okay, now onto actual hcs
• Like..I said he wasn't responsible. He isn't, but he's not like... horrible.
• He'll let you do pretty much anything as long as he finds it funny. Unless it's to him.
• Then he'll put you in the timeout corner.. if you do that.
• I feel like he'd pick you up by the back of the neck.
HEAR ME OUT ON PUZZLE READER, PUZZLE PIECES, Zooble is mismatched and you are a bunch of puzzle pieces!!
Zooble I imagine is a very cool older sibling, like the type you look up to and just are ECSTATIC when they hang out with you!!
Like your super duper cool older sibling wants to hang out with you?? YIPPEE!
I imagine you try to hang back from adventures whenever they do so you can hang out with them.
While Zooble goes straight when they hold their breath, their parts I mean, you just kinda shatter into a bunch of puzzle pieces.
Freaks them out because like, YOU ARE THEIR SIBLING?? and You're everywhere on the floor??
They know you can't die in the circus unless you get abstracted but it's still worrying!
They're there for you and you're there for them.
They hit you with this stance whenever they're disappointed in you.
Good evenin' folks I do hope you enjoyed!! My apologies that these are short, I wanted them to be a little bit longer but it is what it is, as always thank you for tunin' on it and I hope you have a wonderful night!!

Characters I Will Write For
Masterlist
Summary: General meeting/friendship headcanons for ALL characters of TADC
Caine:
Seeing as he's the ringmaster, Caine introduces himself first!
Tries to be a bit less louder than he was with Pomni. She's actually been talking with him lately, trying to get him to be a bit more friendly! And human!
Can you blame him for being slightly rude? He's not even human, so he can't be blamed for not understanding certain emotions.
But you help him understand! He'll ask you from time to time about what certain human things mean.
When you first spawned into the circus, Caine helped pick out a name for you! By that I mean he chose it for you. You didn't get a say in anything.
Your relationship now? Well, he makes sure you don't get abstracted! That's enough for a good friend, right?
Pomni:
Immediately freaked out hearing a new name in the theme song. DESPERATELY hopes you're not too weird, like Kinger or.. Jax? Well, she hopes you're not rude like Jax
After meeting you, she's pleasantly surprised! You two can kinda relate to your situation. Jax likes to call you two the "newbies".
Pomni tries her best to explain to you what the digital circus even means for you, what abstraction is, and what not. She may not be able to answer all of your questions, though.
Thinks you're one of the "normal" ones to hang out with. Tries sticking with you during Caine's adventures. (She just needs someone else that gets her. Luckily, you fit that role perfectly.)
If she's comfortable enough with you, some days she may visit you in your room! Pomni doesn't do this often, though, so feel lucky.
Overall, the two of you are existential crisis buddies! If you become friends with her, be prepared for lots of deep thoughts and.. well, confusion.
Ragatha:
Ragatha is always eager to meet someone new in the circus! Despite how dire your situation may be, she tries her best to cheer you up.
Every morning she checks the doors before going down to the grounds, and that morning she found your door. Your design intrigued her, she just had to meet you!
She definitely explains abstraction better than Pomni tried to. When you get nervous about.. well, going insane, she heavily reassures you. Although Caine's adventures may seem like hell, they're actually pretty fun! Sometimes.
Ragatha shows you to your room, before she lets you get to know everyone else. She tries to stay optimistic for you, but you can kinda feel her underlying worries about the situation as she explains it.
She's definitely one of the easier people in the circus to get along with. If you get to know her a bit better, she may open up to you! Ragatha will try to tell you everything she knows about her past self, but she's left with very little wisps of what she used to be like.
Ragatha is on the more nicer and motherly side of the group, so when you can you try to spend time with her. If you put in the right effort, Ragatha will become really fond of you!
Jax:
If you've read my other works, you'll know Jax isn't one for new people. And at the same time he is. He's really indecisive.
But meeting you wasn't too bad. You weren't overwhelmingly annoying, but you did have some elements to your character that he could tease or make fun of.
Your first impression of Jax was.. honestly kind of bad. He was a complete dick, what more do you expect? To say the least, his antics did not help your increasing confusion.
If you still hang out with him after your horrible introductions, he would be.. amused. Becoming friends with Jax was just setting yourself for failure. Walking into a bear trap.
He teased you, pranked you relentlessly, and made sure you failed horribly during Caine's adventures. Why? I dunno, it was funny.
Jax will tone down his asshole nature as time goes on, and the closer you are with him.
You'll know he's placed his full trust in you when he asks you to help him out with a prank.
Zooble:
According to Zooble, her name for you was 'weirdo' in her head until she met you. As is for everyone, I suppose.
Your first meeting was.. awkward? You had asked her how her limbs worked, detachable and all. It was intriguing to hear about, though.
One thing you shared in common with her was probably both of your lackluster attempts at Caine's adventures, before just deciding to give up.
When you were too tired to commit to an adventure, you'd hang out with Zooble. She was nice company, and much different from others who were much more chaotic. Spending time with Zooble gave your brain a rest, a chance to slow down. And.. it was nice.
Zooble may seem unwilling to befriend you, but I promise she's trying. Not many people actually try to befriend her, unless it's Jax. If you count Jax's pranks as a way of befriending.
In all honesty, when you first met her, you kinda thought she would be.. crazy. Like Kinger. Maybe it was her design, with all the colors in all its glory, but you found yourself pleasantly surprised!
As long as you aren't a natural annoying person, or push buttons like Jax, Zooble eill probably grow fond of you! She won't admit it, though.
Gangle:
Oohh, Gangle. She's a tough one. Right now she's focused on her comedy mask, and doesn't even notice you when you first spawn in.
When you come to say hi, she's still in sorrows. She wishes you could've seen her happier side when you first arrived..
You try to help Gangle fix her mask, but you.. kinda end up making it worse. You apologize profusely. Don't worry, she forgives you. She may have just cried a bit more.
The more you hang out with her, the more comfortable she will get with you. She's a tough one to break, so it may take a while for Gangle to become fully trusting in you.
Try not to make any sudden movements or bursts of affection, because she will cry. Gangle, being as emotional as she is, will probably break down if you're too nice to her. They're happy tears, I swear. She's just not as used to affection like she was before.
As you grow closer, you begin to notice the little things. Gangle begins to show hints of smiles, and if you're lucky, she'll giggle a bit at a joke.
If you're patient with Gangle, she'll get attached to you. Sorry, no take backsies. She's just happy to finally have someone to feel safe around.
Kinger:
Kinger is.. a wild card. Don't get me wrong, Kinger is one of my favorite characters, but you have to admit he's a bit startling at times. And confusing. So imagine meeting him after being transported to another reality, already confused enough with your current situation, and now having to deal with Kinger's personality.
Him being a bit, you know.. coo-coo, he kinda ignored you at first. Kinger thought he was just hallucinating again, as per usual. Then you spoke, and he immediately jumped.
Speaking to him leaves you a bit frazzled, but you don't mind. He asks a lot of confusing questions about you, like how many half-syllables are in your name. You don't even know your name yet..
But you spend time with him anyways, he can be fun at times! He's decently helpful on adventures, and is a joy to have outside of Caine's antics. (What I'm trying to say here is that you build fortresses together.)
Kinger categorizes all of his friends using chess pieces. He says your a knight. Not even he knows why, he just one day told you that you seemed like a knight.
Grow close enough, and this humanized chess piece will ramble on and on about plants and insects to you. When he's ranting, you can barely make out anything he says, as his words naturally seem to blend together. Honestly? He's probably neurodivergent.
One day he'll tell you about Queenie. But it's gonna take a while. Estimated 5 years. For now, you two are great friends! In a way, Kinger feels like this weird childhood friend you never had. And Kinger.. still sees you as a knight.
