    Summary

    How do you even begin to tell a boy that he is in so many ways a physical manifestation of your dream? Is it even fair to tell him when to pursue that very same dream, you'll eventually have to leave him behind?

     

    Tsukasa and Rui stand side by side on stage, but they won't forever. At the end of every show, the curtain falls. Time will not stop for the worlds they have brought to life together, and time will certainly not stop for the two of them. One day they'll leave their shared stage behind for the ones on which they'll stand when they achieve their dreams.

    Tsukasa tries to ignore the fact that he can't imagine that stage without the invisible marks of Rui's direction written all over the set as much as Rui tries to ignore that for every version of that show he imagines, it's Tsukasa's voice ringing out over the audience to bring his vision to life; because while they're Director and Lead now, they won't be forever. Both of their dreams are too large to compromise on without compromising pieces of themselves.

     

    Right?

    Summary

    “You know, I’ve never seen you that mad before.”

    Rui counters, his tone light, “I raise my voice plenty.”

    “Yeah, but that’s not the same.” Tsukasa leans back and crosses his arms, shutting his eyes as he contemplates that with a loud hm. He opens his eyes, gauges Rui's reaction—

    “…With them, you were smiling.”

    Project Wonder carries on its back the hopes of Rui's dearest friends. So, it'll succeed. By any means necessary.

    Summary

    “I thought I would try something different. I'm sorry.” Toya meets Akito's eyes. He's always admired how much expression Akito can convey with them, but Toya has a hard time placing this one.

    “The hell do you mean, different? What even was that?”

    “Um…” Toya fidgets with his hands. “Flirting?”

    -OR-

    Akitoya have a sleepover. Flirting ensues. Neither of them know what they're doing.

    Summary

    It's been a year since Caine's deletion and the chaos that followed. The cast of the Circus have rebuilt their home and their AI companion(s) on newer and happier terms. Finally accepting their situation and making the best of digital reality.

    But the madness that is the circus never does seem to end. Queenie returns in a breakthrough from Caine, throwing the dynamics of the cast into a new tornado as a mother-figure enters their lives. Abstractions on the mend, reunions being held, and new family members being met.

    None of it is as insane as the arrival of a new tiny and very mysterious member.

    Summary

    Kinger mumbles an affirmative under his breath. The sound of scratching on paper grabs Caine's attention, only just noticing the notepad in the other's hand. He watches the pencil dance across the paper, slightly entranced by the movement, until it stops and Kinger's attention is back on him. "Alright. What's the last thing you remember?"

    Nothingness. The absence of himself. A moment that never existed, yet he knows the time passed, so something has to be there. Even if it isn't. Even if he wasn't. He thinks this, and comes up with a response that makes sense with the context he has in his mind. He doesn't compute how it will come across when all he has to say is:

    "Nothing."

    OR:

    Caine is dead. Then, he isn't. Not because the humans wanted to see him again, not because they felt bad, but because the circus couldn't survive without him. To top it all off, he was only brought back to begin with thanks to one teeny, tiny little condition:

    He can no longer use his powers.
