So basically I've been kinda observing what's been going on or wtv and after the latest post I decided to drop my theory's. So basically I'll sum it up now and provide proof of my thoughts later.
I believe that Zooble will be the first to abstract. Then after a series of events it leads to Ragatha and Gangle. I also believe that Jax and Pomni escape, and Kinger will sacrifice himself to stay. Bubble seems to be a spy for Caine, and Caine seems to be trying to present himself as a 'god' or as a figure of power. Now I know this is a stretch to predict every character's outlook but remember this is just a theory.
Starting with Zooble, they already seem to be insecure and overall I don't have a ton of proof of their abstraction other than the fact that it would be unexpected like Gooseworx says, and that they already struggle with some type of body dysmorphia. But in Gooses posts she says abstraction is losing all sense of individuality, so I could see Zooble going this route. It also seems Caine doesn't like Zooble with the things he says to them and how episode 3 went out. If Zooble were taken to hell and we're to hold their breath, their limbs would straighten and they would be trapped.
Next is Ragatha, I see that she has a lot of insecurities, especially around her mother and past. She is obviously a people pleaser and I could see this leading to her downfall, especially after she glitched at the Softball game. Also I believe in the intermission it's showing who will abstract, and her and Gangle both get crushed with purple cake. It may be a bit of a stretch to say and maybe I'm looking too much into it but the cake covers them, therefore covering and making them loose and cover parts of themselves. This could be linked to abstraction too in the fact their covering themselves up and loosing their true selves, but maybe I'm looking too deep into that.
Next, Gangle. She obviously already struggles with masking her emotions and seems to be insecure of herself / see herself as a burden or broken inside the circus. After her whole episode at Spudsy's and her jumping into traffic after her breakdown it seems shes struggling with some depression and mental issues. This could directly link to an abstraction. Along with the fact that if Zooble abstracts first, it could cause Gangle to as well. Plus what I said with the cake in the last paragraph.
Now on to Pomni, she clearly is resilient and has already gone through mania in the first episode when she saw the exit. She knows it's there, she just couldn't prove it and accepted she's in the circus. Also I feel like main character plot armor is protecting her honestly. But overall Kaufmo abstracted after obsessing over an exit, and with him drawing himself getting chased by a big scary Caine on the wall it seems he knew something. Now if an exit were to be found it would make sense for Pomni to stay strong and want to lead everyone out because she's gone through it before by herself and nobody believed her. She was crushed by a bowling ball in the intermission which I believe could mean they escape, obviously I don't have a ton of evidence of this but it's just a theory.
Next is Jax and I feel like he will escape because if he were to abstract it would be expected, and he also is going to do some unforgivable things. Plus the fact Michael Kolvach cried during the 9th episodes recording, that shows that the va is still in the studio. Why would the voice actor be there if Jax abstracted? Also going back to the first episode whenever Jax opens Kaufmo's door, he picks up a bowling ball and then leaves. And what does Jax get crushed with? A bowling ball. It once again may be a stretch to say but what if that bowling ball represents escape. The ball was in Kaufmo's room because Kaufmo believed and was close to finding an exit. Jax obviously takes it which probably means nothing but it might which is why I included it.
Now onto Kinger and this is where I feel like I'm overthinking a little, but I'm still gonna say it. Kinger obviously has been in the circus for a long time, what it seems to me is that he is the reason his wife abstracted. Episode 3 seemed to be Caine trying to tell Zooble this and or abstract Zooble in the process. Also with possessed Pomni directly asking about Kingers wife it seems Caine was trying to get at him. Kinger has been theorized to be the 'savior' before which other people have explained better than I ever could. But I noticed one small detail in the intermission. What he held was a bowling ball, and in my whole theory the bowling ball is the sign of escape. But instead he gives it up, then a black chess piece knocks him into a void. I believe this is saying that Kinger will give up his escape, and go reunite with his wife in the void. Kinger has always been the one whose been their for the characters in the circus, he's the supporter and the advice. It would make sense for him to sacrifice himself.
If you look at the orb you see on the left side that it's a bowling ball.
Lastly, Caine and Bubble. Now as we all know Caine is not intentionally evil, but with his outbursts and glitches it's possible for him to still cause harm to the members. Bubble seems to be a spy for Caine, since when Ragatha and Kinger were talking, Bubble filmed it and Kinger looked scared from this. Caine clearly wants power, he wants the circus to do what he wants whenever. He doesn't want them to leave. I've theorized before that the void is the exit, and Caine monitors it to make sure they stay with him. I believe that Caine will need to be taken out before everyone can exit with the void. Bubble being a spy would also need to be delt with. Also with the company being called C&A I theorize that their was another AI inside the circus, but Caine probably being power hungry has more than likely taken the other AI out, and or locked it away.
The eyes could represent that bubble is a spy.
Keep in mind all this is just a theory!! Its okay to have a different opinion and I'm perfectly fine with talking more about this with someone if their interested. I can't include everything inside this post, but I have gone through and read all of Gooseworxs posts and watched all the episodes bc obvi. This is just my idea and I'm okay with someone thinking differently. I hope everything made sense here and yeah!! I def need to more sleep at night 😭
