Page three of a Digital Circus fancomic. A label shows it’s later than the first two pages. Ragatha approaches Pomni, scratching the nape of her neck, and asks “Pomni! Would you, uh, babysit me while I edit?” Pomni replies “Oh— sure!”. Through Ragatha’s closed door, we hear her say “I’m not gonna change much for now, but…” In the next panel, the two of them are walking down the hallway, Ragatha happily swinging her arms out. She’s changed her skin colour to a medium brown, her hair is longer and a slightly darker red, her hands now have five fingers, and her dress is no longer patched but has buttons down the front and a darker belt section. Ragatha says “It feels good to look a little like myself again!” Pomni adds “plus you can finally use that piano in your room. Keeping the button, though?” Ragatha replies “Yeah, I’m used to it by now. Couldn’t use that eye anyway. Do you have plans, Pomni?” In the next panel, Pomni holds a hand over her head, musing “I might made myself a little taller… shrink my head a little… I’ve gotten surprisingly used to the colours, though. I never would have worn anything this garish in real life.” She looks aside awkwardly as she corrects herself “Or, uh. Our other life. You know.” Ragatha puts a hand comfortingly on her shoulder and Pomni smiles up at her gratefully as she says “I know. Any time you want to mess with it, I can be around to keep watch.”
Page four is wordless. Ragatha and Pomni walk away together, and closer to the viewer Jax watches them, face not visible. In the next panel, Gangle and Zooble are talking, both having altered their appearances— Zooble is now a large orange dragon-like monster with asymmetrical horns, grinning at Gangle, who’s wearing a navy pleated skirt and halter top, and has given herself cat ears on her mask and a ribbon tail. In the background is the silhouette of Jax watching. The next panel shows Kinger, Ragatha, and Pomni having a chat; Pomni has removed her hat and given herself a clean bob haircut and changed her jester outfit into more of a jumpsuit with flared sleeves and shorts rather than balloons; she’s also made her eyes simply heterochromic rather than segmented. Kinger’s only alteration is a wedding ring. The next pose shows Jax watching them from a high place with a haunted expression; we then see Pomni smile up at Jax, to which Jax responds by running away.
