[A/N- I haven't written on here in a fat minute but since I just recently got into TADC and more specifically *ahem* Ragatha, I figured I'd write this. If this gets any attention I'll be open to requests (within reason of course)
THIS IS A BOOK FOR POMNI AND RAGATHA, go somewhere else if you don't ship it.] Enjoy!

Ragatha
The circus is a place I am not fond of. Everything about it; from its bright obnoxious colors to the annoying ringmaster I hated. There are only a few people here who I actually care for, but even then I just don't have the mental energy half the time. I have to be there, of course, I am the one of the only things keeping this place together. So I put on my smile, and I get ready for the daily routine.
As I stumble out of my room, grumpy and tired, I straighten myself out and walk towards the main area with my signature strut. As I make my way down, I can already hear some of the chaos ensuing..
"CAINE, JAX WON'T F%$ING LEAVE ME ALONE." Zoobles voice ripped through the upbeat Nintendo 64-esc music that accompanied us everyday. Jax, the purple jack@$$, was already up to his typical shenanigans.
"Jax, cut it out or I'll give Caine a reason to throw you into the void." I said, very pleasantly with a hint of 'try me'
Jax, seemingly unbothered by my blackmailing him, just walked away and to his place. We were starting that dreadful song.
"Oh, Ragatha, thank you! It's been so hectic this morning, I'm not sure what'd I'd do without you!" Caine spoke in his usual chipper tone, but I only gave a half hearted nod. I was not in the mood for this today.

As the theme song sprang to life, I couldn't help but get a headache from the repetitive melody. That melody that ate away at my mind the first time I realized I was trapped. That painful tune that-
My thoughts were cut off by someone. A very peculiar looking someone. They appeared and just stood, freaking out and looking at themselves. That's a newbie right there.
I was drawn to their eyes.. blue and red in the pattern of a pinwheel, or a lollipop...
My thoughts about this new character amused me, something that did not genuinely happen often.
The shorty, who had on a matching blue and red jester outfit, bumped into one person knocking everyone else down like dominoes. Klutz.
Once everyone got back up, Jax was the first to comment:
"Caine, is another one of your NPCs or this this a new sucker?" Definitely a new one, I thought to myself, not really paying attention to the conversation. I was so intrigued by this newcomer. Their brown hair poked out from underneath their hat, their skin was completely white, they had pink cheeks, and very wide eyes. Suddenly, they started to freak out making those two-tone pupils into frantic scribbles. I decided to step in.
"Calm down, new stuff. It's gonna be okay-"
"What the f%$k is going on?!" Once they realized they couldn't properly swear, they proceeded to try out every single curse that they could. It was kinda funny, seeing how frustrated they were over such a small thing. Considering how they are now stuck with us. With.. me.
I shake away my thoughts and start to explain that you can't really swear and even worse, you can't really leave. I see that they are physically panicked, convinced this is a bad dream.
"Whatever you say, kid." Jax irritatingly quipped. I sigh, I understand what fear the small jester is feeling right now. I'd never felt empathy for another like I do now, it felt real.

But nothing is real here, and I made peace with that fact ages ago. Maybe this one is different.
As they started to collect their thoughts, Caines already nagging them to chose a name. Cmon, you stupid set of teeth, give them some time to process at least.
They eventually settled on Pomni. Huh, what an interesting name. I'm somehow brought back to when I first chose my name. I was so confused but I chose Ragatha well, because of how I looked I guess. And it just kinda stuck ever since.

~After getting Kaufmo into the basement~
God, what a day. After finding Kaufmo had abstracted, I immediately felt responsible and tried to talk him out of it. Of course I knew that wouldn't work...
And now, after getting my glitching fixed and seeing him get put down there, I feel the most shame I've ever had. Not only because he's now gone, but because Pomni's first day had to be so horrifying. I only stood next to her, in silence.

Why was this little jester making me feel things I never knew before?

[A/N- AHH sorry if this seems a bit rushed Im still trying to figure out which way this story should go. But hey if you like it, give me some feedback! Have a great day]
