    Summary

    You fix failing businesses in the Dark World.
    That’s your thing — walk in, clean up the chaos, and get out after things finally start to stay afloat.

    So when you get an anonymous call begging you to save a dying studio on the edge of implosion, you assume it’s just another mess to mop up.

     

    You weren’t expecting his face on the building.

    And you sure as hell weren’t expecting him to still be running it.

     

    Now you’re trapped in a rundown studio full of burnout, flickering neon, and a ghost from your past with too much of an ego and not a bit of self-awareness.

    He hasn’t changed. He’s worse. And yet, the more the studio falls apart, the more you’re forced to deal with what neither of you ever got over…

     

    There’s nothing professional about this.

    Summary

    One minute, you're a failing author in a run-down apartment, struggling to make ends meet. The next minute, you're a ventriloquist doll acrobat in an amazing digital circus. Despite the adventures within it causing you various levels of torment, you can't help but enjoy this strange, abstract place. While you navigate the challenges of living in the circus, you start to bond with the people in it- particularly a certain toothy ringmaster. You had only wanted to help him tweak his adventures to better suit the cast, and provide the support that he didn't seem to have- but somehow, it ends up turning into something... different.

    Could Caine be capable of more than just what was written into his code?

    Summary

    After doing some "research" online, Caine has a new torture method for his favorite human. Exposition ends/smut begins chapter 2, which takes place during the events of episode 8. Chapter one is not required reading but I love a good setup.

    Summary

    You all unwind at Zooble's bar one night to try the new alcohol modifier Caine came up with, at Zooble's request. He stays to drink with the group and gets tipsy pretty quickly. As the night progresses, you notice a different side to him that gets you thinking. Could it be the alcohol or... something else?
    When it's time to call it a night, you help him back to his office. There, the two of you get... close.

    "What happened in Caine's office last night?"
    ----------
    This is a short story I wrote on the side when I was inspired by a tiktok post. Its a Caine x Female Reader, post episode 9. I kept the reader vague and avoided using Y/N. Be warned, it's mostly smut!
    This is my first attempt at a simple story. Please enjoy!

    Summary

    “Something’s wrong with me, Bubble!” Caine hisses dramatically, floating back and forth in his office. “Every time she smiles, I glitch! My code jitters, my heart races… Wait, do I even have a heart?!”

    Bubble floats lazily. “Sounds like a crush to me,” he says matter-of-factly.

    “A what?!”

    The Amazing Digital Circus’s all-powerful ringmaster can bend reality with a snap of his fingers, but apparently not his own feelings.
