Eyes on you

She's on all fours and smiling, but she's not happy to see you~

I finally got around drawing these two together and neither of them are having a good time. This in an illustration for a fic I wrote.

I had fun trying to figure out how to illustrate Gangle's threat display - it turned out to be a hybrid between that of a cat and that of an owl... kinda... eh.

She's little protective of her bestie, don't mind her.

For the carnival, who are the bosses in order? Not counting final boss Pommi

Plus if she is the final boss, and Caine slowly fixes her as the game goes on, would she start to slowly distance herself? Like slowly become more and more unhinge as her original programming gets fixed and she assumes her original role

GREAT QUESTION!!

Oh don't get too excited! Im still not sure if Pomni becomes the last boss or not! Because I do have my own ideas!

The Bosses In Order:

Pomni

Ragatha

Gangle

Jax

Zooble

Kinger

While I don't wanna make a whole comic, I do wanna dedicate mini comics for each section so yall get the vibes ewe

Okay so I absolutely adore both high fantasy levels of storytelling as well as extremely mundane AUs. But when it comes to making my own AUs? I’m the ultimate slut for hilariously mundane slice-of-life stuff. (I literally made a domestic/family AU for what is considered one of the scariest analog horror series to date)

So as soon as I saw the words “carnival AU” in a post from @sm-baby about their carnival AU (I am begging you to check it out, it’s absolutely phenomenal), I had the stupidest fucking thought: a shitty little Showtime carnival AU

No, literally. A literal carnival.

Like a traveling circus with a midway of games and shit. County fair style rides that are literal death traps. The whole nine yards.

Pomni is a disgruntled wage slave (nothing new) who starts her new second (perhaps even third?) job: a temporary one at a local carnival. It’s like a month long event at most, but extra cash is extra cash.

Alongside her, Gangle and Zooble are also temporary workers for the event. Jax, Ragatha, and Kinger are circus members— Ragatha is one of those human pincushions in the sense that she has an insanely high pain tolerance (she also does sword swallowing). Kinger is a magician, and Jax does acrobatics or something idk. Caine, as always, is the ringmaster.

So Pomni & crew are working the carnival games and stuff while the circus does their performances, but they all share a break area so they know each other and shoot the shit, but she never sees the ringmaster. The circus members allude to him being… off. Ragatha says he’s just eccentric, but Jax basically paints them a picture of a genuinely unhinged man. Pomni is now extremely afraid of the guy that’s in charge of her paycheck.

She manages to get her check as an auto-deposit, but a few weeks in the system is down for their bank and she has to actually find Caine to get paid. She pussies out and is like “I’ll just hope the system is working by Monday, I can eat ramen and tap water for two days”.

It’s been a shit day overall— it’s pouring rain and there’s been like no customers, so she’s ready to get the hell home. She gets to her car, only to find her keys locked inside.

She’s cold, she’s wet, and she’s stuck out there. She’s trying extremely hard not to cry about it. She pulls out her phone, and googles lock-picking videos.

After like 25 minutes she gives up, just crying on the ground next to her car in the rain. She’s having the mentally ill equivalent of a Feel The Rain On Your Skin moment when suddenly the rain stops. She looks up to see a guy with an umbrella. She’s never seen him around before. He takes her into the backstage area of the circus show and gets her warm and dry. She learns that this guy is indeed the infamous Caine she’s heard about and tries not to panic.

*yadda-yadda-yadda slowly falling in love/aspects I haven’t fleshed out yet*

They’re interested in one another and want to stay together but the show leaves for the next town at the end of the week so they need to decide if one of them has to leave their current life or that they just can’t be together.

#yet another thing I might turn into a oneshot someday #once again: if you’d read it lemme know #(this concept is not affiliated with sm-baby I just wanted to A.) reccommend their AU B.) explain why I’m also using the same name 👍🏻)#caine x pomni #pomni x caine #showtime ship #showtime tadc #tadc #tadc showtime #showtime #(also yes I know that’s not the song name but it gets the point across better verses Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield)#the amazing digital circus

Here they are! Carnival!Plaidy

the nasty con artist card gremlin imp

The amazing Carnival au belongs to @sm-baby !

<> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <>

Hit the “fuck it” wall, and is now just unapologetically unhinged

“Creative”

Cruelly “buddy-buddy”

Horrible mental games are her jam. Just- having a blender running in the background, and giving subtle hints that almost seem like jokes, that your punishment will have something to do with that device.

Jax enjoys her dark jokes.

Ragatha finds her crass and sloppy.

Kinger is indifferent about them.

Zooble has mixed feelings.

Caine doesn’t trust them.

Plaidy is scared deeply unsettled by Gangle.

Plaidy is actually chill with Pomni. Lets her sit at a barstool and just- panic or rant whatever she needs. With individuals she likes, Plaidy takes up the role of the bartender a regular complains about their work day to. She gives that vibe.

Hey, hi, and hello! Here are more TADC doodles of my OC with the cast! These drawings were from last year, but I still enjoy them. Here is some information about her interactions with them!:

-To the cast-

Pomni: 7/10 (They both bond over wanting to leave that place desperately)

Ragatha: 7/10 (Sees her as a mother figure)

Gangle: 5/10 (Likes to draw with her sometimes, but doesn't know much about her)

Zooble: 5/10 (Intimidated by them, but they protected her from Jax a few times so-)

Kinger: 5/10 (Doesn't know much about him but hangs with him in his pillow fortress once in a while)

Jax: 5/10 (Admires him for his good qualities that she sees, but is anxious about his pranks and tricks)

Bubble: 4/10 (Sees them as funny, but really weird and kind of unhinged, at the same time-)

Caine: 3/10 (Scared of him. Tries to avoid him when she's able, which isn't often)

I sighed when I saw that ask that anon sent about being unhinged for liking a chess piece. I say this as someone who loves Gangle, and gets annoyed that a lot of NSFW art of her has at least one comment saying "But how she's just a mask and ribbons?", some people just have no imagination.

IKK!!! Oh Gangle is a sweetie I adore her,,

There’s so much you could do with Gangle wdym just ribbons fr. Endless possibilities.

Jax x Gangle (Situation-ship): Raptors and Reptiles

The Amazing Digital Circus AU: Oasis

Author's note: Thank you all who showed your support for my previous fanfic! I didn't expect people to actually enjoy it, but I'm not complaining at all. You all made me blush like crazy! I'm really flattered.

Welcome to the Gangle-centred fic! These events happens after those of the previous oneshot, but you don't really need context for it to still make sense.

This story is a little less of a series of events and a little more of a descriptive narrative - definitely not everyone's cup of tea - but at least you get to see unhinged Gangle, I guess... And a little bunnydoll is sprinkled in there too....Maybe a speck of Zooble x Gangle to wrap it all in a nice little bow.

Ths fanfic is very much a situation-ship, instead of a romantic ship. I love the concept of Jax x Ragatha too much to break it in this AU. We are all free to ship whoever; we are all here to have fun!

I hope didn't make too many distracting mistakes in the grammar.

Warnings: Angst, easy on the fluff. All characters and the story of The Amazing Digital Circus belong to Gooseworx!

SUMMARY:

Gangle meets Jax in the hallway right after his long visit to Ragatha. It's been a hard day with a new face arriving so suddenly and Jax looks a little worse for wear.

One look at Gangle's face was enough to have him on edge again.

Please enjoy!

RAPTORS AND REPTILES

In the desert, there is a bird that, despite their wings and the ability to hunt mid-flight, nests beneath the very ground.

The burrowing owl.

It’s small, it’s quick, and it’s silent. The Amazing Digital Circus was a desert, inhabited by characters who banded together to form their own paradise. It was far from flawless, but together, they made a desolate hell into an inhabitable home.

The owl was fleeing back to its burrow after stalking the delicious fresh meat that graced them with their arrival earlier that day. The new arrival was known as Pomni and she had unfortunately proven to be a nuisance to their beloved Ragatha. Minutes prior to the raptor’s flight to her burrow, she spotted the jester loudly blubbering from the hall while standing just outside the ragdoll’s door. She can only imagine Ragatha’s face upon hearing Pomnni’s voice frantically try to apologize.

Of course, Ragatha wouldn’t let the jester in so soon; just as the owl suspected. Pomni had a lot to learn and a lot to prove before she was going to be accepted. The soft sobs that the burrowing owl had heard from Pomni’s mouth, before walking through her new room's door, gave enough of a clue for the raptor to find that the jester seemed to realize that.

But that was enough spying – she had a burrow waiting for her.

“We really need to get you a bell.”

Gangle halted at the sound of Jax’s voice. She was almost startled by it since she just passed his door without hearing it open next right to her. His voice came from further down the hall. Based on the today’s event’s, the petite character could easily deduce that the male paid a nice, long visit to Ragatha. She had the suspicion that he would, but it was nice to receive confirmation.

When Gangle turned around, she almost missed how he stiffened in alarm.

Jax’s smug expression was fixed, and he seemed to be the personification of ‘unbothered,’ but she knew better. When it came to one’s headspace or emotion, she always knew better – call it a blessing from being born with 2 faces.

Jax was deeply disturbed, but he wouldn’t show it. It was understandable, she thought to herself. Today was a rough day and they had fresh meat to worry about. The ribbonoid girl suffered greatly under the brutal bullying of Jax, with tears practically staining cheeks by the end of it all. She should’ve been broken down and crying. Jax was prepared to see her sulk until the following morning, but he wasn’t prepared for her to present as she had in her current state.

Jax wasn’t prepared to be faced with Gangle’s bright smile.

“Someone has a pep in their step.” He quipped sarcastically, “One wouldn’t be able to say that you spend the entirety of the day with tears streaming down your face.”

It didn’t matter how easily Jax was able to fool everyone. Sure, it wasn’t all a simple façade; he really did enjoy being the menace that would ruin anyone’s day, but to call him incapable of caring would be a crime. The snake struck because it was his role – his nature – and the snake was arguably the most dedicated to his role in the oasis.

She saw the rabbit shift into a wider stance as he suddenly took extreme interest in one of his now torn gloves. Gangle didn’t notice that little detail before – something must’ve gotten his skin. Him reacting the way he did, meant that he was immeasurably uncomfortable.

Something within her shifted. If anything, the sight of his torn gloves and the fact that he just left Ragatha’s room, prompted the burrowing owl to come out of its shelter.

She suddenly craved the meat of a reptile.

“I was crying all day…” Gangle slowly took a step forward. She wanted to see him squirm a bit more before she struck her talons into him, “No thanks to you, of course…”

“What can I say? My theatrics tend to bring people to tears.” Jax kept up his aloof demeanor. He didn’t seem to quite catch on to what had her ribbons in such a twist. All he could do in the meantime, was suppress the shudder that crawled up his back while witnessing Gangle’s positively, unsettling smile.

It’s one of the only ways she could express anger, after all. It was bone-chilling.

“Judging by the state of you gloves and your previous whereabouts,” the girl used her head to motion to the door behind Jax, as he did his best to block her view of it, “I’m assuming that you were responsible for tears other than mine, yes?”

THUMP

Now that did it.

Jax was so adorable when he lost his temper. Being the only ‘animal’ in the circus, Jax tended to revert to his feral instincts when he was overcome with emotion. Gangle always found it so queer.

“Cut the crap.” Jax spat, averting his gaze in embarrassment, before glaring back sternly, “I didn’t do anything to her. I wouldn’t!”

“Your outburst doesn’t support your case, Bunny~” her voice chimed smoothly as Gangle’s smile stretched inhumanly wide in response. She knew just how to drive into her personalized predatory charms. As a burrowing owl, it’s impossible to believe that Gangle was above anything. She spent most of her time stalking underground, below their feet. Unnoticed, until she revealed herself.

And reveal herself she did.

“You know that only I do what I have to do – nothing more!” Jax’s grin widened in kind, like a snake baring his fangs as he poised to strike. He lowered his voice to a harsh whisper, “Our little dolly needed some special attention. Since you were M.I.A. I bit the bullet. You’re welcome, by the way.”

Gangle’s eyes narrowed to slits, “I dealt with Caine to get my mask fixed. He drew it out more than necessary. I was about to pay Ragatha a visit before I saw you slip into her room.”

“And you figured that 2 is compony and 3 is a crowd, right?” His sarcasm never let up, even when he was rattled by her unwavering gaze.

“We both know that you just loved every minute you had with our sweet Ragatha…” Gangle leaned in closer, until she was too close for comfort. She intended to bait Jax into losing himself. If he did, she could take it… until she could wrap her ribbons around him as restraints. She would scream for someone to help; to check on Ragatha. Until then, she needed him to give her reason to do so, “Want me to believe that it's a chore for you to manhandle your doll?”

“Want me to wipe that smile off your face, Ribbons?”

Silence.

Tension.

Feral looks that could kill.

All, but no violence. No claws or teeth. Jax was perfectly composed, despite being as disheveled as he was. Yes, the rabbit was on edge and oozing with anger and frustration, but I kept his hands to himself, and his claws retracted. He only displayed his wide, feral smile – inches away from Gangle’s face. The snake’s threat display.

That was all Gangle needed to calm her racing mind.

Jax was still sane and merely acting within his role. Nobody got hurt, despite Jax having felt the need to bare his claws at some point this evening. A wave of relief washed over her as she allowed herself to pull back and deflate her stance.

No need for talons to sink into snakes tonight.

Jax drew back as well, mirroring her stance. Gangle could see his eyes soften slowly, upon realization that she was just fulfilling her role as his was fulfilling his. Unbeknownst to the ribbinoid, Jax heart swelled as the moment lingered. He felt the urge to display his appreciation to Gangle for wanting to protect their Ragatha.

Their precious water spring.

Sure, he was offended that she would think him capable of even thinking of harming the ragdoll, but it was the sentiment that won him over. Gangle was the raptor with the bird’s eye view, after all.

She poked and prodded; she searched and tracked for anything and any sign of Jax falling out of line. The masked girl’s mind was racing and calculating, as she was assigned to; with a brilliant mind such as her own. A certain gleam in Jax gaze had Gangle deduce that his mind was called back to a fond memory of them, operating in sync.

Maybe back to when Gangle first arrived in the circus…

Since no one could remember anything before entering The Amazing Digital Circus, Gangle considered her memories to be precious. She was prone to cling to as many as she could.

Her memory was actually brilliant. The mess of ribbons she was, with nothing more than a mask for a head, would leave one thinking that Gangle’s mind was as empty as the space behind her mask was, but her memory was practically photographic. Every shift, every twitch, every mannerism and every micro-expression along with the extensive description of what it all meant – enabled Gangle to easily read and understand her peers.

She could practically read their minds with a single glance.

She’d recall almost anything to the finest detail, but no one needed to know that. It didn’t concern them… and being frail and weak in stature, means that her mental ability was her greatest strength.

Her only strength.

She could still precisely recall her arrival in this forsaken hellscape.

When she first arrived in the digital realm, she ripped off her comedy mask – thinking that it was her headset that she put on moments before.

However, instead of escaping the new virtual reality that she ungracefully stumbled into, she was just overwhelmed with an undeniable sense of dread and sorrow. The negative emotions brought her to her knees as she scrambled to maintain her grip on the smiling mask. Back then, she didn’t know that it was just because of her tragedy mask fronting. It wasn’t until she saw herself in the mirror, when she could fully comprehend her masks’ ties to her emotions.

Ragatha remained by her side throughout her first day, gently providing a safe space for Gangle to breathe. She did her best to shoo away the chaos that always possessed the tent, whether it be the NPC's the Caine cooked up for them or the other's curious, prying eyes. Gangle couldn't voice it then, but the doll was her saving grace.

They all thought that the ribbinoid wouldn’t last a week.

It felt like hours as Gangle sat in front of that mirror, wearing and removing the respective masks… growing used to the internal waves of emotions that ebbed and flowed from joy to sorrow. It was uncanny how she could feel an indescribable, undeniable joy in the most unfortunate circumstances.

A part of her wanted to believe that she had already lost her mind... but she could never experience the full range of emotions all at once. Maybe, for that reason, Gangle held out for so long.

Maybe she couldn’t abstract, no matter how hard she tried to.

Can one experience a mental breakdown if you already had 2 heads?

One mask would always nullify the other – and that, in itself, was Gangle’s own personal hell. As time progressed and days went by, she’d wear her comedy mask for the kick of it. A close friend abstracted? She’d pop that bad boy on and revel in the horrified faces of her fellow inhabitants as she laughs and smiles like she doesn’t have a care in the world.

That little trick had even brought Jax to unadulterated unease.

She was addicted to the control she had in her self-expression, as it was the only control she believed to have at the time. A smile amidst that tragedy. It drove everyone around her to the brink of insanity. She apparently left them to question the urgency and distress of the ones they lost by the day, but that only had her bursting with uncontrollable cackles.

Nothing mattered anyway.

Everything was so much funnier and lighter with her comedy mask – a high she couldn’t live without at the time. Upon having it broken by Jax for the first time, forced a tsunami of the pent-up negativity to crash into her being. The bunny presumably couldn't stand another minute of living with the girls cold, chilling smile.

This was when Gangle realized that any of her emotions were banked until she wore the relevant mask to let them out.

It was a never-ending dive from the previous high.

Once she recovered after days of crying, screaming, and wailing in fear, agony and sorrow, she accepted and welcomed the bitter melancholy of her existential crises. For the first time since she woke up in the digital world, Gangle found comfort in sadness.

And she realized her need for Jax.

He was the panic button she needed but didn’t always want. He was happy to bask in her tears. She knew that he would be on the prowl to hunt her down, desperate to still the ever-growing hunger he had; to be the greater evil. Gangle would always welcome him with open arms, because in the end, she couldn’t trust herself anymore. She needed her friends.

Because without them, she would turn to that undeniable happiness once again – and she would lose herself in it. This was the very beginning of Jax’s new role of ‘snake’ and her new role of ‘owl.’

Jax and his charming, fiendish stunts operated the groundwork by biting everyone in an attempt to be the occupational hazard. Gangle and her bird’s eye view could oversee it all and silently direct or divert Jax to and from suitable victims. She was the only one who could unnerve the bunny into having him take someone seriously. She was the only one whose eyes and mind he could trust when reading into their behavior. The owl snatched the snake who carelessly parades his antics.

On the other hand, Jax was the only one that could read her state of managing her… ‘addiction.’ He was the only one who would dare bash into her shield – her comedy mask - because the snake strikes the owl weighing heavy with neglect of self-reflection.

Two predators with each other as prey.

Gangle blinked to find Jax searching for something in her expression. Even though their dispute was quietly resolved, Jax still seemed to be bothered by something. The girl made quick work to figure out what it could be – starting with today’s events.

He took such good care of her, Zooble and Kinger today.

This day was stressful and disorienting with Pomni’s arrival. Gangle felt the phantom urge to reach for her comedy mask; her smiling shield of denial. By some devine intervention, her mask was broken due to unfortunate circumstances and without her consent or control. At least, when Jax broke it, it was because it was her choice to plead for his intervention with her eyes – desperate not to fall into old, destructive habits again.

Today, her mask broke, because of her clumsiness.

Her mistakes.

Luckily, Jax was quick to fix that! He purposefully stepped onto it, effectively rubbing salt into the fresh wound. Suddenly, it was him that was the problem! Yes, he didn’t need to do that - that was just evil!

The greater evil – the menace.

Throughout the day, Jax kept them under his heel and stomped on them for good measure. The day’s stress and uncertainty regarding the arrival of Pomni and some fake exit door was gradually drowned by Jax’s antics, and they all fell into routine once again. It was a crying shame that Ragatha had to suffer alone. If only they could’ve done something more…

Something clicked.

Gangle paid attention to Jax’s face again. He looked so tired, but desperate all the same. The masked girl blinked again and suddenly she knew exactly what he needed. What he yearned for.

He needed to see that he’d done enough.

...

With slow movements, Gangle reached for the edges of her comedy mask and removed it from her face. Jax fixed his gaze on her current, sad expression and found no suddenly overflow of tears, no uncontrollable sobbing and no screaming. It was just Gangle’s calm, sad, yet content expression staring back at him. There was no repressed emotion for her to show.

“You asked me if I want you to wipe the smile off of my face...” Gangle spoke, voice wobbly due to her sad expression, “It’s not necessary, I don’t need to be smiling to be ok.”

Jax eyes widened by a fraction, but that was all she needed to understand that he was truly surprised, as if he didn’t expect her to really be content and coping.

She gave a bitter smile; the friendliest one she could muster on her tragedy mask, “You won’t see me crying, though. You’ve already done enough of that today.”

You’ve already done enough.

To an outsider, Gangle's words would sound bitter and petty, but with the way she looked at him, she wanted Jax to feel nothing but reassurance.

You've done enough.

Gangle wasn’t surprised to see Jax stare at her in disbelief, but she was surprised to see sudden, spontaneous tears sprout from his eyes. She almost missed it with how quickly he ripped away his gaze. She couldn’t say or do anything fast enough, before Jax swung around and ripped Ragatha’s door open, entered, then throw it shut just as fast. The ribbinoid stood awestruck in the silent hallway.

She wasn’t upset; she felt honored.

She’d savor this moment until the day she’d abstract, like so many of them had before her. Brief worry flashed in her mind, but it dissipated upon looking at Ragatha’s face on the door. Jax was where he needed to be at this very moment. Although she couldn’t hear Jax sobbing into his arms as he sat against the door with his knees brought to his chest, she was sure that his doll sat right next to him.

Even though Ragatha would be tired and drained after today’s events, she would always make room for someone in need to wash away their sorrow in her clean water.

Knowing the doll, Gangle could only guess that Ragatha ended up eavesdropping on their whole encounter - biding time before splashing into action once things got too heated.

Gangle loved Ragatha for that.

She turned slowly, still dumbstruck and touched by what she had witnessed from Jax and then walked down the hall without a worry in the world. Maybe she will pay her beloved Zooble a visit before retiring for the night. She'd love to let her guard down.

She'd love for something to wrap around.

Gangle looked down at her comedy mask, smiling at her. It felt like a warm, welcoming smile... and she couldn’t help but feel content.

She didn’t feel like wearing a smile anyway.

What I made so far in “The Amazing Digital Musical”:

Designs might change, if I change my mind about it.

(Caine, Zooble, and Bubble will be made soon.)

No, I will not be hearing any questions about Gangle’s design. Thank you very much.

The characters (that were made at the moment):

Pomni - The newest addition to the digital musical world. For whatever reason, she first popped into the world in a jester costume and stayed like that for probably three days.

- Eventually, Caine changed her appearance to look more princess-like. Since, as far as he’s observed from her behavior, he said that she gives off the vibes of a disney princess; feeling trapped, but sings to pass the time, but still looking for a way out of her imprisonment.

(I wanted to make her wear something on her head, but whether it was a crown or jester hat, it made her head look stupid. So no headwear for Pomni in this AU huhu).

- Not that she ever said it out loud, but it was growing to be very obvious how she actually enjoyed singing. She felt ridiculous at first, but hey? She may think the adventures are awful, but why should she think the same way about the musical numbers? It was the nicest way to pass the time in here, compared to the other shit Caine puts them through.

First song she sings: https://open.spotify.com/track/3yQyFMC5oXTPbtsqyJ8nWQ?si=sGCpRszPQVOiHPGB1qJ5eA

Ragatha - From her outfit, you can tell she sings in a more jazz style. (Her outfit was supposed to look like this: https://images.app.goo.gl/TCeuq1ThfFcFqeyq7 )

- Caine was about to give her a more uuhhh…. soft? genre, because of the doll thing. But, Ragatha asked for a more flashy look for her character. (Mainly because, she was getting sick of being compared to the generic doll personality.)

- It wasn’t a bad choice of genre for her character either. She had the voice for it, and knew the moves.

Her introductory song: https://open.spotify.com/track/2efFD04Rkc54XxU8RRApCc?si=12FOrdspTquOJ7y7E8YtfA

(But, picture it in a more in a slow jazzy cover.)

Jax - Doesn’t exactly have a singular genre he specializes at… He just sings “modern” songs, like rock and rapping. He just goes with whatever suits the mood, in Caine’s cued musical numbers. But, when it’s his own will, he’ll do it in however the hell he wants.

- Does he like it? Not really, but he’s pretty confident with his voice. He’s sick of the singing and dancing, but pretending to be a celebrity in his own delusions, makes him feel less frustrated.

If you express your problem with him directly to him, he’ll ask for Zooble to play him his beat, and respond with this self-written masterpiece—he likes to call it: https://open.spotify.com/track/1UjJ032BXNAiV6lVZQB7iU?si=x3TatSC5S_qqq-h_f1rnfA

(HA! You all thought, I was gonna put Jax Toy, didn’t you?)

Gangle - The only one in the “cast” who’s type of music doesn’t fit with everything else. To her disappointment J-pop and anime songs, aren’t exactly suitable for musicals. So, Caine only allowed regular pop.

- But, not to worry, while she can’t sing it in the musical numbers, she’s still allowed to during karaoke nights and in the comfort of her own room.

- Another way of making it up to her, Caine let Gangle dress up as a J-pop idol anyway.

- (I have no idea for her “solo song” yet, sorry. Maybe you guys can throw in some ideas.)

Kinger - He plays the piano. (Literally the only instrument he knows how to play.) He prefers playing classical music, and singing slowl romance songs, but he will sing in the same style the others are when he’s supposed to.

- He’s usually an unhinged old man. The only time he’s ever calm is when he’s playing on his piano, like he was serenading a ghost of someone he loved. (Ahem…)

Solo? Uhhh this one? (But skip to the Kinger bit): https://open.spotify.com/track/0fUOq7xSbQ5myDBZIJNafT?si=VLTyRN0YRBCfNoYoTaxubg

- All characters have a preferred genre/taste in music. But, that doesn’t mean that’s the only genre they can sing.

- Think Total Drama World Tour.

That’s all for now. Though, this AU isn’t as well made and finalized as the other TADC AUs, feel free to ask me anything about it.

finally watched The Amazing Digital Circus

its right up my alley. There's a cool and colourful place with a mystery and a dark layer underneath??? hell yeaaah. I made some notes as i watched, and im gonna just highlight some of them (most of them were me just kind of freaking out at the chaos)

Okay so first, Caine my beloved. I wrote down "do i just like unhinged chaotic characters who just say shit and it sometimes is just word vomit" and i think that sums him up

The Void - definitely like the unfinished zone of the circus, and maybe theres gonna be added areas that stretches out (because of the ending and how the Circus is literally just an island in the Void??)

Zooble <3 i love characters who are so like... done with the chaos and bs of everyone else, who are just goofy and silly and wacky

I noted down that it sounded like Caine's laugh got cut off?? idk that means anything

Caine is also very much Ringmaster. He's in charge of the Circus reality, since he also got rid of Ragatha and Pomni's glitches

also Ragatha shes so sweet she just wanted Pomni to have a nice day :(

ALSO POMNI oh my god shes absolutely going through it. I like the set up of her seeing the exit and then everyone saying "Oh Kaufmo said that haha youre silly"... have they not seen their own exits?? because she saw it out in the field and then it appeared in the circus

Jax

Kinger is totally another favourite too. I love the joke of his screams being cut off as like perfectly cut screams. Hes totally on the edge of popping but its impressive how he hasn't.

"It appears a new human has arrived!" So Caine knows shes human??? okay?????

I'm also thinking... Boneworks? Putting on the headset and going into an artificial world and then being uploaded into the world. In BWs tho the main character (Arthur was it?) does it on purpose. maybe one of them is something like that?

Caine could then be a character dragging people into the game? maybe unintentionally?

Ribbon girl oh my god i feel bad whats her name. I just feel so bad for her :( i wanna give her a hug wtf -> GANGLE <3

One of my notes just says "Stanley Parable", in reference to Pomni running through the Exit rooms. It's like someone did it on purpose so if anyone tries to leave its just going to make them go crazy faster? idk why they'd do that though if they want more people to be here

Wait hold on. Caine takes Pomni to the Void, but then later gets mad that she's there.... why did he show her????

So everyone is trapped in an early 3D show circus through a headset?? and a computer?? like souls in the show?

I sort of hope Kaufmo does come back in some way, i wanna know more about him.

I have so many more ideas about this im gonna go keep thinking about it (mainly Caine).

#the amazing digital circus #tdac #the digital circus #digital circus #i love the variations of the name going on #ill also probably watch it again too... just for good measure

Chapter 6- Liars

Running. Running through the maze, puddles splashing under my scuffed-up sneakers as I sprint through the cornmaze, a rough voice screaming after me-

"JAX!" A voice snaps, startling me out of my sleep. I jerk up, sweat soaking me as I shake off the final wisps of my nightmare.

"WHAT?" I yell through the door at whoever was bothering me, laying back down on my bed.

"POMNI'S BEING A FREAK!" The voice screams back. Now that sleep had stopped muddling my thoughts, I recognized it as Zooble.

"WHO CARES?" I snap back, burying my face in my pillow.

"JUST TRY TO SNAP SOME SENSE INTO HER!" The jumble of pieces retorts. I hear the soft thudclick of them walking away. I lay still for a moment, before curiosity wins out and I slowly drag the blanket off myself, rubbing my eyes and trudging out of my room. As I walk to the stage area, I cast a look at Dollface's room. The silence coming from it was a bit unnerving, since I knew the ragdoll was lying in there, glitching. I stare at the door, considering checking on her-

No. No. That was the jester's job, not mine. I force my feet to step forward, away from the door, toward where I guessed the jester would be. The first thing I noticed was Zooble and Gangle, staring at the jester with mixed emotions. Zooble with disgust, concern and fear, Gangle with just concern.

The next thing I notice is the jester. My smirk slips off my face as I stare at her. Her hat had slipped off at some point, revealing soft brown, fluffy-looking hair, with some strands sticking up like porcupine quills. The second thing I noticed was the murderboard. It was a huge board that I couldn't even fathom where the hell she had gotten it from, with scraps of paper pinned onto it and red string zigzagging across the brown corkboard, linking random scraps together. The jester giggled like a maniac as she scrambled from one side of the board to another, adjusting papers and tapping the board at a rapid pace.

"The fuck-" I start to swear under my breath, fully baffled. The fool's head snaps around to face me, and I feel myself flinch as her spinning pinwheel eyes zero in on me. Her eyes still for a moment as she lunges toward me.

"JAX!" She blurts, grabbing my arm with her normal hand, and attempting to do the same with her glitched one. I just barely manage to bat her arm away at the last second.

"The hell is wrong with you?" I snap, only to have her talk over me.

"I'm so glad your here!" She says, dragging me over to the board.

"You are?" Me, Gangle, and Zooble both blurt incredulously.

"Wow...I guess she really has gone crazy." I hear Crybaby whisper softly to the triangle head.

Pomni stand in front of the board, still clinging to my arm. "Look! Look at this!" She blabs excitedly, waving an arm at the board. "What does it show you?"

I eye the board nervously. It was just surprisingly well-drawn pictures of the exit door, along with a few drawing of other parts of the circus scattered here and there.

"All I've learned from this is that you are freakishly strong when you're insane." I mutter, trying and failing to pry my arm from her grip. The unhinged jester glares at me.

"No! Just-just look." she pleads, pointing to a picture. "I first saw the exit here-" She points at a picture of the stage "-here-" Her finger swivels to a drawing of the exit door on the lawn outside the circus "-and here." Her finger lands on a final drawing of some random place in the circus. "What do these all have in common?!" She asks, staring at me with her spinning pinwheel eyes.

"Absolutely nothing." I deadpan.

"EXACTLY!!!!" The jester shouted in my face. "It's like lightning, it only appears in a place once!" Her left eye twitches. "And just like lighting, it causes me pain whenever I get near it!" She starts giggling maniacally, before breaking out into a full-fledged cackle, shaking violently. I eye her nervously, before breaking out laughing.

"Wait, give me a second." I wheeze, doubling over. "So let me get this straight- the mini jester thinks there's a solution to our fate?"

"Jax, don't be an ass." Zooble mutters from behind me, where they and Gangle had be watching us. They turn to the cackling fool, with something that almost seemed like pity on their face. "Pomni, we told you, there is no-" I cut the triangle head off.

"Wait wait, lets hear her out. Got nothin here but time." I lean down and turn my attention back to Pomni, putting my hands on my knees and softening my voice as though I were speaking to a child. "So clue us in on what with save us here, we miss a sign?" I simper condescendingly. The jester's eyes stop spinning and shrink a little, glaring at me.

"I know what I sa-"

"Shut up."

My voice comes out colder than I meant it to, making even Zooble freeze. To my shock, I see those red and blue eyes start to fill with tears.

"What, are you crying 'cause your stuck here? Need to go confide in Ragatha?" I bark a bitter laugh, sauntering away, grabbing Gangle's happy mask and dropping it on the floor on my way. I snicker a little at the sound of the girl's squeal and porcelain breaking. "Good luck with that to ya!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I stare at the ceiling, at the soft lulling blue. I was starting to hate it. Hate this room, hate the glitching, hate the pain, hate having to lie in bed all day, hate being useless-

No. No. I couldn't think like that. I had to be positive. Stay positive. Look happy. Smile even though nobody was around to see me. I snap out of my thoughts, hearing muffled voices on the other side of the door to my room.

"...Help her..."

"...Sure? Maybe....hard on her..."

Despite hearing them, I still jump a little when they knock on my door.

"W-w-who is i-t-t?" I call, hating the way my voice cracked and glitched. The door opens, Zooble sticking their head in my room.

"Um. Pomni's...being Pomni. You deal with her." They say curtly, shoving the jester into my room. She immediately whirls around, trying to grab the door just as Zooble slams it shut.

"Hey! I was busy!" She snaps. There's a scraping sound outside the door, followed by a soft thud. Pomni tries to open the door, but it only opens a few inches. Had they put a chair or something under the knob? The jester sighs and turns to me. "Hi Ragatha." She mumbles, crossing her arms.

I don't answer, too busy staring at her. I feel a soft blush creep over my face. Her hair...it just looked so soft and cute, sticking up in places, all messy from being under her hat all the time. I kind of wanted to run my hands through it...

I manage to snap out of my spiraling thoughts as Pomni starts to pace back and forth across the room, getting more and more anxious and distressed with each step.

"I know you guys don't believe me when I talk about the exit, that you think i'm insane or-or that it was all just a digital hallucination or something, but I know what I saw. I know what I experienced. I know it's out there somewhere, and I-I-" She stops abruptly, a hand reaching up and tearing through her soft hair anxiously.

I watch her, feeling guilty about not being able to help the girl. I mean, that was my job: To help people. What good was I if I stayed glitched, stayed broken-

The jester's eyes widen slightly in apparent bafflement, patting the top of her head. "Wheres my hat?" She says, confused. "I....thought we couldn't take our clothes off." She automatically reaches for the glove on her glitched hand to see if it would come off, flinching when the two hands make contact. She scowls at the glitched mess, before leaning down and experimentally tugging on one of her shoes, which comes off easily.

"Huh." She muttered, putting it back on, her hand returning to her head. "It feels like...is it all sticking up?" She asked, sounding slightly exasperated. I managed a jerky nod, before trying to raise a hand to point. "T-the-re's a m-mirror o-ove-e-er there-e-e." I stammer. The jester gives me a sympathetic look, before going over to the mirror. She runs her hand through it, trying to flatten out the parts that were sticking up with no success. She lets out a low groan of frustration. "I look like an idiot...I don't even know where my hat is..."

I feel my face heat up, and for once I'm glad my whole body is all glitchy. "I think y-you lo-o-ok c-" I catch myself at the last moment. "-Nice."

Pomni looks at me, pinwheel eyes widening slightly. "Uh, thanks." I smile as the jester slowly walks over and sits on the bed.

"Um. Thanks. For...letting me stay in your room." She mumbles. I refrain from pointing out she had been forced into my room, instead going with "Anytime Pomni."

We sit in comfortable silence for long minutes, the jester glancing around the room, occasionally running her fingers through her soft brown hair.

"Your room...doesn't look how I expected it to. I never really noticed what it looked like until right now, really." The fool breaks the silence after a while. I nod understandingly. Everyone who came into my room was a bit surprised. Instead of the bright pinks and flowery decor they expected, there was simply dull shades of blue and simple decor, a vase here, abstract painting there. Honestly, I normally loved the colors and scarce decoration. It was soothing, in a way. But after being stuck here staring at it for so long...I was starting to despise it.

"It's nice though." The jester adds after a beat. "It smells nice in here too. Like flowers, and fresh baked cookies." She glances at me, making my face heat up even more. God, what was wrong with me?

"Uh, I nor-m-mally bak-k-ke in here a lo-ot." I mumble, nodding at an oven stuffed in a corner of the room. Pomni nods absently, eyes boring into me with concern.

"Ragatha...are you...ok?" She tries softly, before rephrasing her words. "I mean, as ok as...As much as you seem?" I tense, caught off guard.

Could she see through me that easily? Could she tell how not ok I was, how-

{INFORMATION REDACTED}

"Yeah Pom-n-n-ni, I'm fine! Or at least, as I fi-i-i-ine as I can be, being all g-g-glitchy." I reassure quickly with a smile. Pomni returns it, not looking convinced. "A-are y-you? Did you c-calm down eno-ough?" I ask. Are you done looking for the exit?

The smile widens. "...Yeah, I think so." She hesitates, pupils shrinking a little. "But...can I stay in here a while anyways?"

"O-of c-c-course."

The two liars sit together in silence and guilt, lost in their own little worlds sitting 12 inches apart.
