THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS EPISODE SIX SPOILERS‼️
Today, Caine’s adventure was… Unusual, to be true. Everyone was forced to split up into teams of two, find the guns around the map and shoot each-other. Try to win for their team.
Almost immediately after Caine finished explaining the rules lazily, Jax walked up to you confidently and roughly grabbed you by the hand.
Jax: “Come on, shortie. You’re comin’ with me.”
The rabbit spoke with a smug grin on his face. You pulled away from him, unconsciously rubbing the place on your arm he roughly grabbed.
“…I’m actually gonna be on a team with Zooble!”
You said with a soft smile on your face.
Jax paused, before returning that confidence smile on his face and he answered you sharply.
Jax: “What? No, you’re not.”
He said while grabbing the gun you were holding out of your hands and holding it up in the air, not letting you take it back.
Jax: “We’ve been together for every team adventure in the past.”
Zooble nonchalantly walked over to you two, and while passing by Jax, they slipped the gun out of his hands, softly holding your hand in theirs, a complete contrast to how roughly Jax grabbed your arm.
Zooble: “Guess things are changing, bunny boy.”
They said while leading you over away from Jax, giving back the gun you chose.
——————————————————
While you two were searching for more guns and ammo, you found yourselves in a small castle in the circus. You sat down on the floor, having your back against the cold wall while Zooble loaded your guns with ammo.
They put the gun against the wall.
“…Do you think… Jax is gonna be mad that I didn’t team up with him…?”
You said, afraid of what Jax is capable of.
Zooble: “I wouldn’t worry about him right now. It’s all just a game in the end…”
They said, standing up straight.
“…B-But it’s… Jax… He probably wants revenge… A-And he’s going to make it painful…”
Zooble: “Hey. You deserve better than that. You’re a human. You’re not his toy.”
Zooble comforted you, sitting down beside you on the floor.
“…It sometimes doesn’t.. Feel that way…”
You said, bringing your knees up to your chest.
“…I just wish that’d-…”
“…”
“How are you supposed to like the part of yourself that just makes you.. Worse than everybody else…?”
Zooble paused, before answering softly.
Zooble: “Because.. It exists. It’s a part of you that’s real. And the only you that you should care about… Is the real you.”
They said, looking over at you with a comforting gaze.
