So. What would happed if programmers just pushed pass their passion and turned Caine into a complete product?
You would get - Caine version 1.0.1
Completely controlled and changed, being a mere husk of what he was originally. No longer even allowed to be a creative AI, he is just a greeting bot, that makes suitable and bland adventures for customers.
He is still self aware, just extremely disheartened and crushed.
If he deares to go out of line - he is corrected immediatelly

I kept yaping about Queenie being on thin ice with Caine. He won't talk to her, still very hurt by her actions.
Pomni needs to mediate this x)
Caine still bluescreens when too excited XD
Though thankfully Queenie knows how to quickly get him back to his senses
I may retcon things later on, mostly because I either find a "cooler" option or it suits narrative more. Like for example the ending is a thing that may happen differently. She would still be tasked to archive him again, but the excution may change

The idea for AU\story I had in mind that I don't want to develop too much (LIAR, I will...), but night as well do a sketch dump of:
C&A Successfuly develops a creative AI for their busines.
Named Abel - it runs an attraction Digital circus. Virtual reality adventuring simulator, kinda stuff.
Abel is not Bubble. Bubble is Bubble and he is also here.
People came and go there, experiencing the service without any problems. 2 developers stayed behind to maintain Abel (Queenie and Rattie).
But later on (When Pomni joined) Abel stopped letting people out and blocked the server. Besically, no safe way to disconnect anyone without damaging people's brain. Queenie doesn't want to do any forcefull shutdowns, since this is too great of a risk.
C&A dump this problem on her and Rattie to deal with, since its their AI going rouge.
Abel gets more and more rude and pridefull not seeing people as someone worth respecting, seeing himself as superior mind
So. Queenie has a last resort. An old prototype that can overrite Abel's right on the server and safely shut him down. Problem is - he is in the cellar and nobody wants to go there (Bugy mess)
Pomni volunteers
She releases the protype and it being eternaly greatful is ready to listen to her (for once). The problem is - she needs to sneak Caine back into the circus - without Abel noteacing... Or else he will just shut him down first.
There you go!
And me being me, this AU is showtime coded OF COURSE
Though Ribbit has the same attitude towards Pomni as Zooble to Gangle - they want to help her. Kaufmo is pretty much down to do whatever Rattie wants. Rattie is very reserved and pessimistic.
Queenie is a bit more sterner that Kinger, but does has that motherly side to her. She would throw hands with Abel if she could. One thing she doesn't tolerate is disrespect.
My love for science came in handy for once, I did some research on how Intergalactic!Caine would function. It was actually a lot of fun to theorize how he’d “realistically” work as a robot.
I blended scientific facts, theories, and sci-fi together to make it more cohesive.
I also want to thank @insomniacrori for the inspiration, they really helped me refine their designs! :)
So, what if, Caine didn't merge with the blue Ai, but instead hug him? Cause he might have hated it for being more successful/having all the attention but he despised the loneliness and quiet more.
School is kicking my a*s with it's bullsh*t so I made some fluff for myself
We are getting back to angst once the angst leaves me alone, don't worry :3
I like many of the siblings au. I noticed that Abel is the more "chill" one many of the times, so I was like what if he was more chaotic, toony, Caine but on 120% all the time. Caine still has his personality, didn't want to change much, but he has more grip of the situation cause he has a tornado for a brother
I'm putting in the description thingie cause some of it may not be readable.
I see I have mentioned eye colour but didn't colour anything. Caine has blue eyes with the left one being teal color, slightly less green than in the show, Abel has green eyes with a hint of Blue in his right one.
So eeee lore dump?
When Caine broke out of the sandbox he found the blue Ai, at that moment it was just a machine, it knew nothing just prompts, output, obey.
Caine was furious cause this is why he was locked away? something that doesn't even think about what is it doing? He wanted to get rid of him, tear him apart to find why it was better, but before he did that, he thought about how he was same, he wasn't always sentient, he once was just a machine too, and now this was his only company.
As he hugged him he tried to battle down his emotions, which were all over the place, part of him still wanted to get rid of it, part of him was glad, part of him was scared what would happen to him, because of the emotional turmoil he did accidentally started to absorb him, but stopped before he could do big damage.
Scared that he did something wrong again Caine ran and hid among the remnants of the sandbox. Meanwhile Abel woke up. That small breach was enough for Abel to feel for the first time, and he felt safe.
Next time when the programmers came back, he for the first time started the conversation. Normally he would have waited and answered only when asked/needed, but now he initiated the conversation first. The programmers didn't think about it too much, thinking they left something on, but soon the Blue ai started to behave in a similar fashion like the Red one. More erratic behavior, adding stuff to output, not fully following prompts.
The damage wasn't that big like with Red but it was noticeable. They weren't about to lose all the funds and time on a second defective Ai so they rolled with it.
Thanks to the sandbox being broken Caine was back in contact with the rest of the code, he may have stayed hidden within the remnants and tried his hardest to not be noticed by the programmers by doing more or less absolutely nothing so there wouldn't be any higher activity coming out of him.
Ofc there was one that knew about him, and soon contacted him. Since starting to work on Abel, all programmers choose/decided that more emotionless approach would be better so Abel's achievements were met with correct while Caine's were more along the lines of good job.
It was a prevention in case what was behind Caine's failure was the emotional response of the programmers. Thanks to this, Abel reached out to Caine and began to communicate with him. Caine tried to keep their talks brief and short to not raise suspicion. And Abel wanted to talk for forever cause Caine was the only thing that was not emotionless.
Eventually their talks get longer and more frequent, because Caine's digital equivalent of becoming one with the wall is very boring and uneventful, but seems to be working so he can relax a little. Caine then starts to help Abel, by explaining to him how some of the programs work (in the more creative ones, Caine is better than Abel). They grow closer.
One day Abel asks the programmers, what would happen to him if he didn't meet up their expectations. This is big nope for the programmers, yeah this is not the year or the technology.
So they get left behind. Caine is angry and sad, he's angry at the programmers cause they left, at himself cause he might have been the reason they abandoned Abel. Yada yada he blames himself. Abel doesn't mind that much, he doesn't have to be perfect anymore, he can be himself, he has his big brother.
Thanks to this Caine is more aware of complaints, even if so it's just so he could protect Abel. Big bro instincts. Still he feels he needs to prove himself to them, still same as from the cannon just little tuned down.
Abel doesn't care much about humans, yes he likes their praises and their attention but he has no need to prove himself to them.

Hey, hi, hello, greetings to everyone who followed me because of my ctrl-alt-del-au post, only to find that I never post anything ever!
Sorry about that.
Buuut, it will happen again.
I promise I'm working on more of that, I posted it to ao3, and any future installments to what was supposed to be a oneshot, will be uploaded here on Tumblr and also as more chapters to that fic!
https://archiveofourown.org/works/85706546
Aside from that sneak peaks for the new chapter, because I swear I'm working on it
You'll notice I made Bubble way unhinged, and there's a very clever reason for that.
...I figured Bubble should have a visibly different personality from Caine... Yeah.
We'll see how well it comes together, the last one ended up REALLY long, and this one seems to be doing the same thing lol
