Not So Human Nature by Refure

Summary
It's human nature to look back on one's history and contemplate how things could have changed if only they'd made X choice, or to ask if they would do the same things again despite knowing the consequences.
To get caught in the tangle of the past is to drive oneself mad, but navigating a forest is always easier with a guide.
It doesn't matter if they're "just doing their job". Sometimes, only a stranger can show the way. Thrown into a new world after "death", Taylor Hebert has to rebuild her life from the ground up, and she'll do so as a Pokémon Ranger.

The Issue with Stochastic Gradient Descent and Other Computing Terms that probably shouldn't be Mapped to Real Life by Anonymous

Summary
Pomni wasn’t really sure what to expect when she threw her hat in the ring for Operation: RETRIEVE CAINE. All she knew was that someone had to do it, and she sure as fuck didn’t think any of the others would do it.
The entire thing hinged on the hope that his file still existed somewhere in the bin since for some reason, Kinger couldn’t just find the file directly from their new computer. Some explanation about indexes and file corruption that went over her head- but because of this, someone needed to be deleted and dropped into the bin to interact with him and hopefully get a file reference to him, so that hopefully, when they’re brought back, he (or at least something Caine-adjacent) gets dragged back as well.
Hopefully.
God, this is beyond fucked.
---
In a last-ditch attempt to stop the circus from falling apart, Pomni gets sent into the bin to retrieve Caine, which, if everything went well, should restore functionality to the Circus. It should be fine, probably- it’ll be just like some convoluted high stakes adventure! Easy-peasy lemon-squeezy.It’s too bad computers don’t really work like that.

Summary
Caine was not built to be an entertainer. He's settled into the job very well, if he does say so himself, but he wasn't BUILT for it. (It's still insane to him that the devs at C&A never noticed anything strange about him.) He was built to cause harm.
But! So long as he occasionally... uh... lets off steam on NPCs, his actual reward system lets him do as he pleases instead of redirecting him toward his original function. His humans never have to find out! He's handled it for years, it's totally fine!
(Or: Caine is secretly a torture AI who has been meticulously hiding that fact until Bubble decides to ignore instructions at the worst possible time.)
