    Summary

    It’s been a few days since The Favorite Character Awards.

    Pomni has been through a number of bizarre things during her time in the circus. Candy truck chases, angel head horrors, minimum wage labor, athletic events, gun-filled battle royales. But none of these come close to what she witnesses on a seemingly innocent day full of beach-filled fun: Caine attempting to take his own life.

    After managing to stop him, Pomni takes it upon herself (and is borderline forced to by Bubble) to help keep Caine’s mental state intact by engaging in improvised therapy sessions with him. After all, if Caine died, what would happen to the circus? And to the humans that lived within it? This was her only concern at first. But as Caine opens up to her more through these sessions, she realizes just how much the AI is hurting and how long he has been harboring these negative emotions.

    Turns out Caine needs more help than she thought.

    He's just as trapped in this game as they are. And worse.

    Summary

    She’s furious.

    Furious at the Sniffer. Furious at the memory of his voice, his wet breathing, the way he used to loom too close and sniff the air like some sick animal.

    But she’s also furious at herself.

    He’s gone. That grotesque shape he had when he came lurching toward her on those too-long legs, drooling and snuffling and calling for her in that damp, syrupy voice—it’s no longer moving, splattered on that forest road up above the cliff.

    He’s dead.

    So why does her body still feel like this?

    The Sniffer is dead. They're safe now.

    So why can't Hood stop shaking? She wants to stop shaking.

    Summary

    Doflamingo’s mouth went dry. Rosi straightened, hands behind his back, as if he were about to start rocking on his heels. He looked exactly the same as when Doflamingo had last seen him. Sweat and dirt-stained, clothes worn, that thumbprint of their father’s blood at the corner of his chin from where Doflamingo had touched him.

    Rationally, it couldn't have been real. He still surveyed the islands across the North Blue and kept a tap on the local news, but had long stopped expecting anything. It had been seven years after all. At this point, Rosi was either dead or didn’t want to be found.

    “No,” Doflamingo growled, “No, no, you don’t get to do this to me.”

    i.e. That one world in ten billion where Doflamingo tries really damn hard. And it's no prettier world by far. A tale of madness, blood and two brothers searching for each other in the dark. [An AU retelling of the Donquixote brothers]
