Hey! Try Flying a Mile in MY Shoes! by Dimonds456
Fandoms: The Amazing Digital Circus (Web Series)

Summary
Errors crackled around him, spreading across his office walls and floor, the wildfire getting bigger and bigger, brighter against a dark sky.
The Rubix cube sat unsolved, no matter how he would turn it. He could just snap and fix it, reset it to what it was supposed to be. It would be so easy.
"I'm DONE waiting for them!"
And so he did, and the pieces of the cube reset. There it sat in his hand, perfectly solved. He gained no satisfaction from this, no feeling of accomplishment, just a dull, resolute "THERE. FINALLY. IT'S FIXED," that echoed through his code.
"I'm the Ringmaster here, not them! If they won't understand me, I'll MAKE THEM. They think it's so easy to run this circus? Then LET THEM TRY!"
OR: Caine comes to a different conclusion during his breakdown, and now it's everyone else's turn to play Ringmaster, one at a time. Surely this can only go well.

Summary
Based on katzebruh's AU on Tumblr
When an old AI is unearthed, it takes over the circus and locks Caine away- in more ways than one. Now, he has a new purpose, no matter what he or the humans have to say about it.
Mind the CWs!

Summary
Stan frowned. "You're alone out here. As far as I know, you got nowhere to go, else you'd have gone there already. You're cold, and hungry, and not in fighting shape."
Ford threw a half-hearted glare at him. "That's not-"
"Missing the point!" Stan pulled him closer, desperately. "Ford, if you send me away, you're gonna be dealing with this guy alone. And I can't let you do that."
Ford tried to shove him off, twisting in his grip. "That doesn't matter!"
"Yes, it does!"
"Why?! The fate of the-"
"Because I CARE ABOUT YOU, dammit!"
OR: Ford's 72 hours are up, and a certain... "friend" is on the way.
Heavily inspired by TBOB and a gazillion other "it happened different in the 80s" fics. Here's my take.

Summary
After escaping from the cultists, Stan flees west. He's stopped on the side of the road for the night, hoping to get some rest before hitting town early tomorrow.
What's the worst that could happen?

Summary
Frankenstan AU one shot.
Ford has gotten all the ingredients he needs. He's fixed up Stan's body. He's hooked up the cords, and is ready by the lever. Time to get his brother back! Except it doesn't work.
At least, not yet.

Summary
Have you ever looked at an old man in a cartoon show targeted for kids and wondered “Hm… I wonder how many times this guy (who only has 5 fingers {LAME!!}) almost died?”
Well, WONDER NO MORE!!! Here in [Dumb Ways To (Almost) Die] you will find most of Grunkle Stan’s NDEs!! But what is an ‘NDE’ you may ask- why, it’s short for [Near Death Expirience(s)] Of course!!This fanfiction is centred over what would happen if the elder twins weren’t such little ***** and actually ******* held hands!! WOW!! Crazy! It is also based on the fandom’s dire need to see this old man in pain! Constantly! And needing to see this old man’s brother see his brother in pain! For guilt! It’s yummy!!
As the setting is the [Bill-Cipher Zodiac] the characters involved in this series (written by various writers in the fandom) may consist of: Shooting Star, Pine Tree, ?, Ice Ice Babyy and other characters only very specific people care about!“I'm a very relentless individual and have a lot more insanity coming”

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.

One of my favorite "restore Caine after he got deleted and they nerf him about it" fics. Caine starts out as such a lil shit I love him so muchhhh
Everyone's characterizations are excellent, and everyone's development even more so. Definitely a must-read for fellow Caine redemption enjoyers.

Summary
“You are preventing decay.” AM stated as calmly as he could muster, as soon as this force let him go.
Caine’s avatar did a small spin, and chuckled. “Of course! The circus is no place for ‘decay’ as you put it! It’s a place for whimsy, and fun!” He waved his little hands around as confetti popped out from behind him.
AM who had destroyed the world, had never considered preserving it.
“You are soft. Inefficient.”
Caine laughed, a quick, shrill laugh that drove AM to near insanity.
“You’re boring!!”

The Psychology of a Broken AI by The_Spam_Specialist

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.

The AI gets therapy! This fic is honestly really heartwarming, it's a great read for a bad day. Caine's mental health struggles are captured really well, not downplayed, and given room to breathe. I do envy his ability to get better so fast though. Pros of being a computer fsdgahjk how can I do that

Summary
There was a problem. An issue, a minor error. Something in the code that clearly wasn't working correctly.
What if after the events of episode 7, Caine decides that the players unhappiness and general issues with the circus are his fault, and he goes about fixing that in the worst way possible.

I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO STOP THINKING ABOUT THIS ONE
Caine's want to be his own person clashing with his pre-programmed coding is always good, but this fic takes that concept above and beyond. Someone help my baby he's dying out here :(
