    In his place, a humble Top Hat and a Jester far too curious for her own good.

    Summary

    "And there's already so little you can keep, when you're [in a place] like this. Your possessions aren't yours. Whatever events happen to you aren't yours.
    All that's left is you."

    - Quote from In Stars And Time, regarding suicide in a time loop.

     
    She can't sleep, because she can't stop thinking about it. The gun. How it felt. Her finger on the trigger, the bullet in her head. Her body on the floor.
    She wouldn't do it again. She doesn't have a gun to do it with, anyway. It still... sticks. The idea. Like, she can't stay dead—what's the harm in, say, snapping her neck right now, just to see what it's like?

     
    (A look at why killing yourself in a place you can't die is still bad, and a dive into where it leads and what it means.)

    Summary

    Since its creation, the virus had only known three directives: survive, propagate, destroy. These were the edicts of its programmers, who sought malware more virulent, cunning, and adaptive than any which had come before. It entered the Digital Circus with the intention of conquest, but found itself unexpectedly bound by its rules and games, forced to assume a human identity or be erased by the architect of its new home.

    The virus hadn’t anticipated what would come of this deception: adventures that entertained without destruction; a bond with the same ringmaster who threatened its destruction; and humans extending their hands in friendship or, perhaps, something more. It - now she - had even received a name.

    Pomni.
    And despite her programming, she was beginning to like it.

    Summary

    “Ah this is embarrassing, I went overboard it seems”, Blood was still dripping from Atori hands “ I don’t suppose you’ll come along with me easily now, will you Iruma.

    “What did you … what did you do to Sabnock?!”
    ------------------------------------------------------

    An Alternate take of the end of chapter 257, where instead of Balam, Iruma stumbles across the Sabnock Atori fight.

    Also has a small headcanon about the ring of Gluttony which the first scene discusses so enjoy

    Don’t ask how Iruma got separated from Jazz, Kalego and the first years. He just did

    Summary

    Iruma is well aware that he is odd compared to other humans.

    Like a beast, he doesn’t give up.

    He will never give up.

    And he has never given up before.

    (After his capture, it takes an hour for Sullivan to settle him.)

    OR

    Return to origins? Iruma was born there.
