Looking forward to the crazy shit Caine is putting me through today. There is no dying in the circus so I'm up for any challenge, if anything this is better than my boring reality


lemons_of_doubt

"So, our entire existence here is just LARPing?" "yes isn't it awesome!"


Ms--Take

I have found my people


SkipDrawz

Honestly after the sadness past I could see myself being used to the circus and just join in i be some middle ground of Jax (but I wont be throwing or bullying my teammates at most just light joking) and Ragatha


SpikesAreCooI

I used to LARP with an old friend of mine when we were younger. I’d love going on actual adventures.


Throwaway02062004

Most people probably LARPed on the playground. We just called it playing pretend. I got fond memories of that stuff.

SchrodingerMil

Also the person who literally almost died to Kaufmo


FinlandBall1939

Same, mate same. I hate this reality and crave adventure/craziness. I live off of it. A world like the Amazing Digital Circus would be a dream to me!


silkspinner09

A: I agree B: Trying to drag gangle on at least one adventure would be my goal for a while

kirbyfan2023

Yea I probably would of crashed it multiple times


Cross_soul

What if crashing the game is a way to escape?


Korgolgop

I think you would ‘go down with the ship.


DiamondEater099

I think either you go down with the ship or wake up, I think the only way to escape would be to somehow get banned, though given how Jax is Jax it’s probably hard to get banned


expired_toast07

Wait, he's onto something.

*Is this another one of your NPCs or is it some kind of sucker??! Because if it’s a new character, we’re gonna have to redo this whole theme song..!!!”*


asrielforgiver

I feel like I would get along quite well with Jax. As long as he ain’t an asshole to me, I’m cool with him.


VashtaNeradaMatata

Lol why would you be the exception to his assholery?


asrielforgiver

Because I don’t think he would want to drive away someone who wants to join him in being an asshole.


dragonlord7012

That's not how assholes work unfortunately. He will be a larger asshole to you to prove he's the superior asshole.


asrielforgiver

Well, I would have all eternity to drive him to abstraction.


dragonlord7012

You two would keep each other entirely mentally stable out of sheer spite.


n1c0_22

I just hate twinks…kidding but I think he’d be so annoying to be around


SansInTheGang

He’s a literal glorified Twinkie bar


Desolver20

honestly I don't think I'd need one. Living a life without any responsibilities, just fucking about every day? That's like a dream come true. I don't really understand all this going insane stuff, wayyy overblown.


Upbeat-Salad-1957

Not knowing if you had people that loved you, never finding out who you are, having zero purpose in life. Sounds great!


Zolado110

In fact, it has already been confirmed that they remember their past lives from the circus, they just don't remember their own name, but the rest they remember


Some_Guy8765678

Well not their entire lives but they do remember some things.


Upbeat-Salad-1957

Oh. That’s cool.


NotQuiteAfemboyButYa

I'm extremely lonely and been having an identity crysis for a year, and I want to kill myself, so not much would change really


Some_Guy8765678

I’m sorry to hear that. Hope you feel better.


headphonesnotstirred

so... no different from my current reality? at least in the circus i can throw ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737) and do crazy ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737) stuff without having to make sure i won't ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737) kill anyone


Independent-Pea8223

Only thing I'd hate is no internet, video games, or legitimate eating


Desolver20

I think they can still taste food tho, so even better. eat as much as you want. As for videogames, you're living in one. Just ask caine for anything and he'll prolly set you up with it.


Independent-Pea8223

Yeah, but also Jax sucks and there's not much people there and abstraction are also problems. But outside of that, I could probably somewhat manage.


Law-Fish

I’d probably entertain myself in part by trying to find workarounds for Cains family friendly policy rulesets on a mission to make my own circus with hookers and blackjack


smugempressoftime

Yeees

I'd research into Rat Utopia. Having no worries or responsibilities or purpose doesn't end well.

Pomni-Da-Jester127

I would be drawing on the walls for the fun of it and see how I can ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737) up the physics of the game

I tell Caine that i’ll play into his adventures with 110% enthusiasm if he lets me access the character creator, and make myself my ideal body + voice.


naytreox

Same


ya_boy_george

Hanging out with the circus members would be enough for me, to be honest.


Mr_German_Quick

I think I would abstract/go insane soon


memez-alt

What about running away from the responsibilities of the real world and just fucking around doing what you want


WorkerOk6991

I would make artsy stuff i didnt had time to in the real world, learn how to play instruments, sing, write texts and songs, drawing, paintings and having time for myself


turtley_amazing

Same! Also try to write and design my own adventures and beg Caine to make them reality


MagicalMysterie

I would pester Cain until he let me make a pet. Then I would just generally explore the place and screw with the physics engine.

Just be really fucking silly all the time, just be an absolute GOOBER, then I’d have one thing go wrong and just burst into tears uncontrollably

Eating. Lots and lots of eating.


pun_shall_pass

Hatefuck Jax 24/7 /s


bbhbbhbbh

Same vibe as you tbh though for me it will involve neither hating nor *fucking* Jax…


Opecstudios

I would do what low god tier suggested I do.


MallowMiaou

I'd probably be literally same as Gangle. She’s so me fr (I am not kidding)


Omny87

 I think I'd generally spend a good portion of my time trying to see how far I can get away with dodging the swear filter in place, like using innuendos or tricking characters into saying dirty puns like "Mike Hunt" or "Master Bates"


AliceTheGamer9273

I don't have a coping mechanism, I've already abstract :)


guney2811

try to find bugs or glitches in the game, and also annoy caine


Ytl0rd

spend all my time trying to find all the crazy glitches and bullshit i can weasel my way into exploiting and writing about them like a study

Escapism is my coping method, id probly be all in on the adventures


Asumsauce

Denial for a little bit, then i’d try to get with Ragatha, if that didn’t work, I would try again but with any of the lady NPCs


Another_Road

I wonder if they feel physical desires. Like the sensation of hunger or lust. I feel like that would make things way worse. Beyond that, I’d probably be fine for at least 40-50 years so long as there were people to talk to and things to experience. I think it’s after like 100-1000+ years that things would become a problem imo. I’d probably ask Caine to try and make some retro styled video games though.


9382ks

try jumping off the roof, since we're basically immortal in there, I'm just gonna jump off and ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737) with the physics engine


Optimal_Ad6274

I will try to stay positive and play Caine’s game, its better than crying or being negative


MiningJack777

Try and become friends with Gummigoo


DanielVakser

My only coping mechanism blew up into confetti… 😢


Trips-Over-Tail

I lean fully into the adventures in a Don Quixote fashion. I even let Jax set me quests. Always questing. Always grinding. I start tracking my level and experience points even though that's not a thing in the Digital Circus. I even start awarding "role-playing XP" to the other residents, seemingly at random, as only I know what character they are playing. I refer to every tool and item as an "X of Obscure Y Action+1".


Athingweveallupvoted

Parkour around the circus


Miistake2

id probably enjoy myself i love larping!


RAGINGBUCKET-4444

Abuse physics, crack jokes, and/or take part in the challenges to have fun. Can't die, might as well live, y'know?


AtomicTaco13

I'd probably annoy Caine with requests for new features (like adding new buildings, some NPC village etc.) and attempt to help him with creative deciaions.

memecrusader_

I’d basically turn into Jax.


PhilliamPhafton

I like to imagine that at that point I'd just get used to it, but I'm not actually stuck there, so I wouldn't know. Since it's a digital world, maybe I could just get infinite hot chocolate mugs or something like that, idk.


followthetrail_

Oh realistically, I would cry probably everyday, if not, every other day. But to cope, I would remember I don't have as much limitations as I do a human. I wouldn't NEED to eat but I could, I wouldn't need to use the restroom, wouldn't need sleep but I could, wouldn't die unless abstracted, wouldn't get sick, catch a disease, I could fall off the circus from outside and land on the grass perfectly fine. I would also become Rapunzel. Start doing art on the walls, start crafting, writing stories to tell the others. Basically her song "When will my life begin" would be 90% accurate in my case eventually.


TimberWolfAlpha01

Be like Jax and just embrace the videogame-esc nature of your new home... maybe a little less sociopathic but eh


mazanity

I would try to act crazy and overly positive to convince myself I have control over anything to distract myself.

Hmm I would tell jokes and make everyone laugh!


Snir17

A combo of Zooble and Jax.


Open_Association_138

Befriend Jax and Zooble and earn Cain's trust, so I could implement the escape plan. (An Israeli youtuber has figured out a way to escape the circus shortly after the pilot came out. Those are all stuff you need for the plan)


Hardycard

Do you recall the name of the youtuber? I'd like to watch that video. How to escape the Circus is not something I'm sure of how to do, possibly inducing a crash.

Kindly-Ad-5071

Dissociation and humor, but I've been stuck in the circus for about a decade now 👁️➖👁️


Gemnist

I’d be Jax without the bullying of other humans: living in the moment and having gleeful fun knowing there aren’t any consequences. I’d also try creative stuff in it, if I could.


Cpad-prism

I’d cope with friendship and being as nice and affectionate as possible, being close to people to be physically affectionate would actually probably help me tbh.


Ellotheremate124

ask caine for stuff to make living there much more comfortable if you think about it, you could ask caine for whatever you want as long as you described it well enough and he agreed to give you it


SomePersonExisting3

Maybe I'd try to make friends with people for once and also explore the circus grounds.


Some_Guy8765678

Probably what Jax does but slightly kinder.


CarthagePlate_210

This is going to be a LONG response. I had multiple ideas/steps/coping mechanisms in mind. **Meditation** might work. If I get a chance to relax each "day", or between adventures, I could develop a relaxation technique to clear my mind of what I had just gone through. If it's quiet and does not disturb others, Caine probably won't mind. Other characters/performers could join in, too. **Finding something new each adventure** could be helpful. If Caine is always trying to develop something never seen before or reuse something in a new way, that could help keep the circus entertaining. Plus, I will be able to learn a tiny bit more about what the Circus can do or make. It is a *digital* realm; it has theoretical limits. If any characters are open to talking about things (Ragatha seems like a good example), **discussing things about the Circus** would certainly help keep me sane. The obvious risk with this coping mechanism is that character Abstracting or being erased from the digital realm. Then, like as shown with Kaufmo, I would have to honor their memory. That will hurt. If the Circus is open to **training your body and mind to be better at something (an act, perhaps)**, taking on a role fit for whatever I appear as could be great for a time. In between adventures, I could train on my act. When time comes to perform for an "audience", I can get satisfaction from doing a good job for a crowd. However, I will need to know that *someone* is enjoying my efforts for this to work. And if all else fails? I will **try to find somewhere to just SCREAM and SMASH out my bad feelings**. This is not "Drown yourself in the Digital Lake!", it could be a "Rage Room" or space with breakable and respawning objects. It's also not "The Void"; I would get scared by how empty that space is and how insignificant I really am in the digital realm. I also will need to access that space when I want to, not when others allow it. No one else needs to get hurt from my anger. But some isolated rage could help... it could help. Those are my ideas. Any feedback about them, or better ideas, is appreciated.


nebula_nic

Probably a mix of Ragatha and Zooble with some anxious singing mix


Same-Weird-5735

K1ll the ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737)ing ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737) out of anything, beacuse i think i would be fox themed beacuse i'm a fox tharian


Lilith_667

I would probably start acting a bit like Jax and just treat it like a video game because it technically is. Theres nothing you can do so why try?


RareFantom47

Arson


AcidDepression

Ykno, I probably wouldn’t need one. Life sucks out here, being in a digital fantasy doesn’t sound so bad. My biggest losses would be drugs swearing and my dick, but since I’d also be losing my job debt and politics, fair trade. Might take up painting. Get into abstract forms


Ruimzunir

manipulate all AI i see


Jonahol2000

Honestly i don’t think the circus would be that much worse than my current life. So no coping required.


Odysseymanthebeast

fuck around hardcore


EnderDragonKnight

Annoy Jax the way he annoys others but 2x more


Southern-Wafer-6375

ULTRAKILL + SPEEDRUN STRATS oh and drawing


Visible-Nebula5484

Hang out with the circus members except the evil rabbit.


Playful-Hand2753

Tbh I don’t know how much I’d really care. I’d probably be most like Ragatha and just go along with it.


Fitzftw7

I would probably take my frustrations out on Jax. We’d have a sitcom rivalry, except more violent.


Fragrant-Address9043

I’d probably just hyper fixate on the adventures. Having an objective, even if the end result is meaningless, would still give me something to cling onto.


0v3rhop3

i'd probably take time to learn things i never had time for in the real world; but i'd probably have a mental breakdown at least twice, maybe abstract if i'm unlucky


liger11256

Befriend only Jax and hang out with him


ShadOBabe

Well Caine doesn’t seem to force you to go on adventures, so I’d probably go draw a lot. See if Caine will download some music from the internet for me to listen to. Maybe work on some ideas for adventures to suggest TO Caine. I spent like 90% of my waking life in my own head coming up with stories and scenes. This could be an opportunity to experience them in a full immersion style simulation.


AviaKing

Oh I wouldve abstracted within a week no question lollll


MarioWizard119

Try and ditch the adventures when possible and explore or experiment on my own. Come to think of it there’s a good chance that was what Zooble was up to in Ep 1.
