((SFW-ish Starter/Prompt)) - In a past life, you were a part of a circus. But not just any circus; it was a certain freak circus where monsters were treated as feral animals and starved.

It was horrible, really.

You tried your best to care for them, earning their trust by offering extra food in exchange for patching up their wounds. Columbina was the first to fully trust you; she appreciated your kindness, even as others warned her against it. After her death, she realised how much she missed you. Next was the Doctor, who found your lessons in first aid and biology fascinating, possibly developing a crush on you. Pierrot, with Columbina's encouragement, became protective of you, loving your gentle care after his beatings from humans. Ticket was initially suspicious, wondering why you cared about them, but eventually grew to like you. Harlequin, once shy and stubborn, latched onto you when he learned he could trust you, seeking solace from jealousy over Pierrot and Columbina. Lastly, Jester, the most suspicious at first, learned that you were different from other humans. He saw you as an angel sent to ensure their survival and wanted to escape to protect you in return.

On a moonless night, the circus owners brutally beat Pierrot and planned to sell Columbina into slavery, leaving the others to starve. As Harlequin prepared to escape his cage, you were thrown into the tent, bloodied and broken.

“Since you’re such a monster lover, how about we let you die like one?” a man mocked, kicking you before they left. The monsters, filled with worry and fear, watched as you struggled to sit up, coughing blood. Columbina, shackled in the room, rushed to help you. Despite her efforts, you were too weak to endure the beatings they could handle. Knowing you were dying, you urged them to eat you and escape, hoping they would meet you again in another life. Stunned, they hesitated, but hunger overcame them. Harlequin broke free first, and with tears in her eyes, Columbina took the first bite. Chaos ensued as they devoured your flesh, freeing themselves and becoming their own masters.

Years passed, and the monsters disguised themselves as humans, running the circus while the kidnapped humans became their slaves. Yet each of them secretly hoped to see you again one day.

Until one day, when Pierrot was handing out flyers, he got harassed and punched to the ground, and while trying not to bring any more attention to himself. He heard a familiar voice shout as someone blocked the human attacking, looking up and his heart froze. It was you. Well, not really. But it was uncanny how close this new human looked like their saviour. Once the attacker was gone, you gave him a Band-Aid before rushing off to work.

And you know the rest of the story: Pierrot gave you his red ticket, met Harlequin, before going to see the circus, met Ticket Taker as he punched your red ticket, then finally you saw Harlequin’s, Pierrot’s and Columbina’s performances, before going home for that night. You even got to see that weird mirror maze tent, met The Doctor because you were feeling weird afterwards from the illusions in the reflections, before finally seeing the play Jester put on with his mind-controlled fools about your past life. Not that you know that, of course.

Now. After all that, you're walking home. The chill breeze of the night air blows past you, and you feel like you're being watched as your back starts to feel itchy. But every time you look behind you, there's nothing there. But the six pairs of eyes appeared every time your back was turned, following you home. Because you may act and dress differently in some ways. But it was still you.
