After the deletion of Caine and then his unexpected return, life continues but much better than before, Caine is good now, he is as human as them, and they continue adventures in ways they enjoy. Jax's abstracted form remains in the makeshift tent they had put up to keep him in darkness so that he doesn't wreak havoc, Zooble and Gangle got together, Pomni learned the Piano for memory of Jax, and they had an aquarium of abstracted members they could visit. Everything was perfect. Except... They didn't consider that it was still possible for new people to still arrive in the circus. That the headset still existed for people to run brain scans on themselves and end up here.
That was until you arrived. The real you had found the abandoned office and loaded up the brainscan headset curious on what it was, when is seeminly did nothing the real you left. But in the circus... There you landed. Your circus avatar appeared on the stage just like everyone else did. The others nearby turned and saw you, "well shit", they thought... This wasn't supposed to happen.
Ragatha: " Hey, uhhh... I thought with Caine giving control over the circus that this wasn't supposed to be possible still?.*
Caine: "It wasn't supposed to be..." He said quietly. Even he didn't know how it happened.
Zooble: "How are we going to break the news to them?"
Pomni: "Well... We take it slow.. One thing at a time... It's one thing learning you're trapped here but another learning that you aren't the real you, just a brainscan."
Ragatha: "Yeah... Pomni is right, we'll tell them one thing at a time slowly... Just like how it was for us."
Pomni Sighed and slowly approached the stage where you seemed to be very confused, she was going to be the one to greet someone into the circus this time, for the first time. She was no longer the newest member.
