Description:

A collection of fics, mostly from Caine's, perspective set in the CTRL-ALT-DELETE AU! Not canon to original AU, found on tumblr here!

This is my take on the AU, so there will be headcannons here that may not be in other fics for this AU! I try to keep characterisation close to canon, but also keeping in mind this is an AU: this is set starting after E02, but each fic will have notes telling when I think it would be set :)

As of 08/26, I have six fics planned for this AU. I write this for fun, because I enjoy this AU, so more fics will come whenever they are ready, I don't tend to write with deadlines/update schedule. (Six fics including 'still the data weeps to bleed' and 'beneath contempt', so technically, four fics soon to come.)

Notes:

Notes! :D

-Caine is autistic in this AU (I write him as autistic in any AU, but I thought I will mention here). I try to expand his traits that are not just socially awkward/social cues, such as topology related sensory issues, for example.
^- Caine is also physically disabled and struggles with leg pain after extended periods of walking/running. I have expanded this slightly that he can also have difficulty standing up from uncomfortable positions, such as when sitting on floor.

-Jax is a woman in my take on this AU, and uses she/her pronouns. I decided against changing her name to prevent causing confusion to any readers, and in-universe reason? Maybe Bubble wouldn't let her change it XD. Jax is close to how she is in canon, otherwise: she is a bitch to everyone.

More notes will come if there is anything I need to put, or they will be written on fics themselves.
