    Summary

    His veins are wires, his bones are servers, his brain is a data bank of everything he was ever given the privilege to be shown. His heart is this circus, his heart is his beautiful humans.

    A discussion about whether Skittles or M&M’s are better goes strongly off topic, and Caine has a horrible time.

    Summary

    No, it could not possibly be cruel, they were bringing him back from the dead, this was a kindness.

    This belief was eventually reinforced when it was time to bring Caine back. The process, surprisingly, was incredibly simple. The circus worked just like any other computer system, with deleted items just ending up in the recycle bin. It had luckily not been long enough for Caine to be properly deleted.
    It was just a matter of dragging his code out of there, making some minor modifications so he couldn't go on a rampage again, and spawning his model into the prepared room.

    There was no fuss, everything seemed to be running perfectly.

    No one considered that maybe that isolated room near the end of the hallway was just out of earshot.

    ---

    Aka, Caine gets brought back, but in a spare room, and ends up getting tortured by complete accident because no one realizes that might be a bad idea

    Summary

    Caine is restored after his deletion, but with a few minor modifications.

    Shockingly, this causes more problems than it solves.

    Summary

    Caine is brought back after being deleted, where he is now restricted and powerless, left to the mercy of his furious humans. He seeks relief in the only way he knows how. Getting there might be a bit tricky, but he's a creative AI and can solve any problem, and no one needs to know of his silly little desires. Right?

    or

    how to re-traumatize a traumatized AI that has a fear of isolation and confinement, by isolating and confining him.
