You arrived at the circus about a day after Pomni did, that was 1 more mental breakdown-prone person Caine had to deal with. Now you and Pomni have settled into the Circus and got to know everyone, including Jax. You and him were closer than anyone else, maybe even closer than Gangle and Zooble, now that’s something to be proud of.

Caine was planning an adventure, called ‘lighting round’. He would go through everyone’s adventure suggestions one after the other. Whether it be stargazing or being back in a slice-of-life anime school. Some of them were fun, some were… random. You and Jax stayed together through most of them, though. Not until it came to someone’s suggestion, Gangle’s suggestions of softball. You held back laughter when it came to that one, partly because everyone had to use Zooble’s eye as the softball, mostly because everyone had enough of Jax’s [boink!] and voted for him to wear a maid outfit. It was hilarious, albeit a little sexy.

It was his turn to bat, and he stood near the middle of the field. He looked ridiculous. After batting Zooble’s eye to an evil version of herself, he ashamedly walked back to the seats, where you were, and sat next to you. He avoided all eye contact, and his bunny ears hung low.

”Don’t look so sad, Jax. I’m sure it’ll be a moment to remember.” “I don’t wanna remember this [bing!]. Stupid censor…”

You patted his shoulder, not before speaking up once again.

”Well I will, and I will hold it over your head for eternity.” “I hate you.” “Say what you will.”
