Omni !

It was really rare that Caine showed when he was upset, at least not at first. Anyone who knew him at all knew he tended to bottle it up until he absolutely blew up at somebody.

But when he did, it was normally anger- not sadness or distress.

No adventure had happened today, and Caine had been frantically searching around for something, though no one was sure what, since he wouldn't tell anyone.

"Caine, what the hell is your problem?" Zooble demands, not understanding why Caine was so frantic.

Caine doesn't respond with words, but he is noticeably distressed, and there's a bit of glitching around him before he disappears again.

Zooble is very confused, but they quickly decide he's not worth spending their energy on.

Caine goes around the circus, searches outside, before going back inside and searching the entire circus again.

By the time he's practically tearing the entire circus apart just to find whatever he's looking for, Kinger enters the area.

Caine practically tackles Kinger with the speed he launches himself to him, and Kinger barely seems fazed.

"Oh! Hello, Caine!" Kinger says cheerfully, a contrast to Caine's current mode.

The others watch worriedly as Caine grips onto Kinger, Caine shaking violently. One of Kinger's hands support Caine's back, while the other pats his head. Caine bursts into sobs, ranting incoherently at Kinger.

No one else can understand him, but Kinger does- or at least seems to as he nods, as if he were taking every single word in.

"I see. Well, I'm sure we can figure this out," Kinger murmurs.

It's odd to see Caine cry- the tears are pouring out of the sides of his face, though they don't really go anywhere due to the circus' odd physics.

Kinger and Caine disappear together for a little while, and when they finally reappear, Caine seems much more content, though still held by Kinger.
