    Summary

    A mysterious, stubborn virus infiltrates Caine's systems, forcing him to utilize some rather desperate measures in a reckless attempt to keep the circus, and himself, online. He attempts to fix it, ends up somewhat successful, and pretends like everything is fine as a result. See? He's not dying! He can handle this just fine on his own. He didn't need Kinger, or anyone for that matter, rummaging around in his delicate code.

    That is, until he wakes up one day covered in digital blood, surrounded by the mutilated bodies of his favorite humans.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is a man who thrives on structure, routine, the solid ground of a ten-year plan. Ilya likes that about him, likes the embracing squeeze of having a life organized in tandem with Shane.

    No one would call Ilya a man who thrives on structure. But it’s there, if not in his DNA then in the patterns of his brain. A call-and-response of: they do this, I do that.

    When Ilya’s life is flayed open for the world to dissect, how will they push-and-pull their way back towards what was once a well-organized life?


    “I thought we could go through the schedules and figure out what days we’ll be in the same cities this season, or when either of us have a couple of days off in a row. Maybe make a shared calendar, so we c—”

    “A sex calendar? Your parents are arriving in thirty minutes, and you are proposing making a sex calendar?” Oh, this was delicious. He’d be able to eat out on this for years, if Shane was willing to give him that long.

    “It’s not a sex calendar! It’s just … when we might be able to see each other,” he finished, already sounding defeated.

    “And what are you planning on doing when we are seeing each other? Not fucking?”

    Summary

    An ablation study aims to determine the contribution of a component to an AI system by removing the component, and then analyzing the resultant performance of the system.

    Deleting Caine was not the plan. And his absence led to a whole set of new problems, ranging from the destabilization of the Amazing Digital Circus to a more murderous AI trying to take control of the mainframe. Retrieving him was a matter of practicality. They might not trust him and were definitely wary of him, but his presence was their only way to survive.

    Knowing that the humans that you love and desperately want to make happy instead fear and hate you (for admittedly good reasons) and only brought you back because they have no choice was not the best feeling for an AI never designed to handle emotions in the first place. It would be much better to only keep the parts that they need and discard the rest.

    Summary

    The absence of Caine, unfortunately, makes way for something worse. Out of pure desperation, the gang rescues him from deletion in hopes he can save them from being deleted too.

    Caine gets another chance to prove himself, though he's not sure he wants to, and he still doesn’t understand how it all went so wrong in the first place.

    Nobody really wants to die here. Nobody really has much of a choice on how to make that happen. And certainly, nobody is really happy with their former tormentor(s).

    But…any port in a storm, right? And maybe with a little patience and effort and compassion, they can all learn to just...live.

    Summary

    [System rebooting.]

    [Permanently deleting model & AI system.]

    Deleting…AI system..?
    No…nonoNONO STOP-

    [Deletion complete. Transferring consciousness to host…]

    Caine waited for the emptiness of nonexistence to welcome him.

    But it never did.
    Instead, a warm light enveloped Caine. He heard nothing. What he saw was a small desk with a computer.

    Or, a confused Caine wakes up after being deleted, feeling very different. He is found by a group of six humans...who he knows. They're his friends. Meanwhile, conspiracies about the Circus are going haywire. C&A is crumbling. And there may be more layers to this than it seems.

      Ch6

      Wait.

      NonononONONONO-

      “I’m sorry, dear. This is for the benefit of the company. Enjoy your promotion.”

      The last thing he saw was the headset being shoved on his eyes as the world went blank.

       

      Booting up. Player 001.
      -

      “So what, he’s a HUMAN?!” Z–Riley yelled. “It appears so…” Grant nearly whispered. He was still staring. He hadn’t moved at all since Caine’s eyes were revealed. “-AND HE JUST DIDN’T TELL US?” Riley continued. “I-I didn’t know…” Caine tried. The room clearly heard him, but no one spoke.

      No. I didn’t know because it’s not true. This must be some kind of…dream. Or whatever they called it. He’d had it explained to him as basically the brain freeing up storage space by playing out thoughts from the day. It sounded strange, but maybe this was it. All made up by his creative AI self. It had to be. He didn’t know how he could even do such a human function, but it was more believable than this.

      “Whaaat? It’s just one more secret on top of not telling us there was a way to leave!” Jackie grinned. That felt like a punch to the hard drive. Caine wanted to cry out that he really thought they couldn’t leave, that he knew much less than they clearly thought he did. When he tried, the words didn’t come out. They felt caught in his throat, and he choked. Why were human voices so unreliable?!

      He felt a liquid run down his face, dripping down once it reached his chin. He reached his shaking hand out to wipe it, but it kept coming. Suddenly, he couldn’t breathe.

      “Stop, he’s crying…” Zoey sniffled, her voice barely a whisper.
      -
      “Imagine if you were an AI with every power imaginable over the world around you for as long as you can remember, and suddenly you were shoved into a human body with weaknesses, flaws, and…and feelings! You act like you don't know how that feels, but you do, don't you!? It's the exact reverse of what happened to you! So you should know it sucks!”

      “Bu-” Riley began, but Gan—Zoey gently put a hand on their shoulder. “I think…Abby has a point,” She said. “Arriving in the circus was already disorienting…I can't imagine how much worse it must be to leave as someone who's never been human before.”

      “Oh come on, he has to be lying about the not knowing thing, right?” Riley asked hysterically. “How can someone not know that they’re human?”

      Despite the tears being mostly gone thanks to Abigail’s defense and Zoey’s empathy, Caine still couldn’t speak. He didn’t have an answer to that question anyways.

      “What? Human got your tongue?” Jackie grinned. Everyone glared at her. “What, I thought it was funny.”

      “You think everything’s funny.” Riley grabbed the bow off of the hoodie’s ear. Jackie practically lunged for it.

      “My point still stands. Even if he was human and knew, you all know how it feels to go back into your human body after being digital for so long.” She turned toward Grant.

      Grant paused for a moment, still looking at Caine, before suddenly realizing Abigail was addressing him. He shrugged, playing with his thumbs. “It was quite disorienting, considering I was in there for the greater half of seventeen years,” He almost laughed.

      “But he tortured us. He’s EVIL.”

      “He didn’t seem so evil when we found him. We haven’t even let him explain himself!”

      “Why should we?! Villains don’t get second chances.”

      “Do you even hear yourself?!”
      -

      “It was pretty funny when Jackie almost got you to set yourself on fire,” Riley almost laughed again. “It was not.” Caine defended. The showman persona was almost completely missing from his voice, which was sort of terrifying when he thought about it.

      “Joking, joking. Not like you’d pick up on that anyway.” Riley turned away, messing with their rings. That irritated Caine. Sure, they were right, it hadn’t even crossed his mind that they might be joking, but it felt incredibly dehumanizing to just be told you couldn’t understand basic human things such as humor.

      Dehumanizing.

      Why did he keep thinking that?

      He wasn’t human. Well, right now he was, in the dream, but that was beside the point.

      “...listen,” Riley started as Caine toweled off his face. “I don’t think I’ll be ready to forgive you anytime soon, at least not as soon as some of the others look like they’re gonna,” They breathed. “I hated how you just gave me a duct tape solution and ignored it when it wasn’t working.”

      Caine turned toward them confusedly. “Oh, yeah. Duct tape is like…normal tape but stronger? But my point is that it’s still tape? Ugh, whatever.”
      -

      On the small porch outside the doorway stood Grant. “Caine,” he said. Caine heard Abigail approach behind him. “What was it.” She asked bluntly.

      Grant glanced around. “I have an idea, but I can’t be sure. I think…

      “...I think I know why Caine’s human.”

    Summary

If they manage to find an exit tomorrow, he needs to use this once-in-a-lifetime chance to have a talk with the AI he helped create. When Caine wants to know why Kinger abandoned him and locked him away, a conversation begins about their feelings and experiences during the development of both Caine and Abel.

    Summary

    The job you did was demanding, but you were damn good at it. Always three steps ahead, you were the go-to person in the office. But you didn't let it get to your head and you remained a quiet yet friendly member of the team. After working hours, you often retreated to your second home, leading something of a double life.

    Your helpful and open demeanour to colleagues and friends hid your darker thoughts inside and you dealt with the daily struggle of trying to keep it all together and be the best you could be.

    It didn't help that one of the directors of your department was a distraction and you often found your mind drifting to thoughts of him, his dark ebony hair and pale features. Not that he ever looked twice at you. But then, out of nowhere, he did.
