Dead/Abstracted Performer Headcanons Volume 2/5

Dead/Abstracted Performer Headcanons Volume 2/5

Name: Barridge ( A simple play on barrel of a gun and widget, also kind of sounds like barrage)

Avatar: Pink sloshy blob in a canon unicycle with a jester hat on the back.

Personality: Energetic and slightly clingy goober who was something of an adrenaline junky and enjoyed almost all the adventures.

Fun fact: Barridge had full control of the canon at all times, but not of his fluid head. Bonus: The other members of the first four took to calling him Barry and future arrivals all thought that was his actual name

Abstraction: He was the longest lasting member of the first four humans to enter the circus. The weight of missing his friends and Caine pressuring him to interact with the new performers just ended up being too much. His abstracted form broke a ride at the outdoor carnival and briefly glitched one other person.

Name: Queener ( Even I have to take the easy route some time)

Avatar: Only difference between her and Kinger that's not visible in the portrait is a longer robe.

Personality: Wine aunt who arrived at the same time as Kinger, neither could remember the other's human life, but felt they should stick close together and formed a very close but nebulous bond. They were fiercely protective of each other.

Fun fact: She had a Canadian accent.

Abstraction: Kinger started letting go of his inhibitions to have more fun on adventures which worried her but she kept those feelings buried until it was too late. Her rampage broke a bunch of crap in the tent but fortunately, no one was glitched. Kinger blamed his perceived recklessness for her snapping which made him even more paranoid than he would have been if she just abstracted on her own.

I kind of feel bad for having Kinger as my TADC blorbo because a lot of people do and some people probably think Jax or Pomni are my other favorites but my second favorite is actually Zooble and I'm a little miffed that they were a glorified m'guffin in the pilot. Gonna start rebloging more Zooble stuff.

Dead/Abstracted Performer Headcanons Volume 3/5

Name: Chromeo III (two other performers briefly considered using the name Chromeo at Caine's suggestion, hence the III)

Avatar: A REALLY big legally distinct yoshi/barney. His tail ended with a transparent orb with a few colorful marbles in it. (He would automatically shrink to fit into his room's door)

Personality: Despite the name suggesting otherwise, this guy was the ultimate himbo. Real outdoorsy type too, so he got really grouchy whenever there was an in house adventure. He also frequently broke the carnival rides.

Fun fact: Chromeo was completely unaware as to how much Glumis hated his guts and was hit hard by his abstraction.

Abstraction: He eventually realized most of the other performers dismissed him as an overbearing doofus, as that feeling piled up he eventually just couldn't take it anymore. His abstracted form was actual quite small and really fast, it managed to glitch four people ( Gangle being among them)

Name: Edgallen (a combination of Edgar and Allen, I'm sure you'll figure it out after I describe the avatar)

Avatar: Greenish-off-white glow in the dark skeleton with glitter balls for eyes, moved around by several frog-eyed blobs. He could really glow in the dark.

Personality: Tired guy ( matching his scratchy voice) with a cynical sense of humor and interest in classically spooky stuff. He would due his best to help Ragatha in adjusting new humans (He was the second person to appear after her, the first one will come next time).

Fun fact: He convinced Caine to create a "creepy" fun house, Caine took it down after Edgallen abstracted to not repeat the mistake he made with Barridge's situation. Bonus: The fun house idea was based on the grey building north of the lake in this concept art:

Abstraction: A combination of Caine neglecting his interests, even after creating the fun house there were very few adventures in it, and good-old fashioned existential dread. He did a lot of damage since he was on his way to the fun house to avoid a repeat adventure, glitched Kaufmo and Zooble. His was the last abstraction before Kaufmo's.

Seems my theory in this post was dead on! Always feels great to be in sync with someone who inspires me so much.

Also, congrats, Goose!

Do you think there’ll be episodes dedicated to certain characters? Or will things continue in the chaotic everything-at-once style you were going for with the pilot?

Also congrats on TADC reaching 26Mil views! U deserve aaaall the success! 👸

If it were to get made into a full season, yes each character gets their own little episode.

I'll do you one better:

Ignacio thought John was getting too close to the truth and so decided to burn his house down without telling the other cultists, for all Evermore knows, John really did just burn his own house down out of negligence.

Evermore is definitely part of the cult, but what if his "blah blah blah" thing with John was genuine, what if he genuinely believes he's just helping run an elite group of rich members of the town searching for immortality, and because he's all wrapped up in it, the idea of it being a cult is absurd to him
