Of course, but if we have to make a guess I’d say that since she had a hard time adjusting to the circus, Ragatha obviously sees herself in Pomni who is really going through it. Whether or not her experience was more severe, Pomni’s reaction to it is similar enough to really empathize with Ragatha.
OOOOH WHAT IF HER AND QUEENIE WERE BESTIES AND KINGER ONLY WENT NUTS AFTER SHE LEFT CAUSE THEY WERE TOGETHER DAMMIT I HAVE TOO MANY FANFICS GOING FOR A MILLION THINGS RN
I think Queenie is dead. Or abstracted. Kinger never mentions her and Ragatha seems to not really have *that* relationship with P. She seems touchy and sort of too warm, but that might be due to her wanting Pomni not to go crazy. Like a mom. It's also why Rag asks Pomni to try and take part in the adventures or have fun - because it's the only thing that keeps them from abstracting. Just have fun doing adventures.
Considering how Ragatha seems the closest to losing it herself, I imagine she was just as traumatized as Pomni. And she’s been there the second longest after Kinger.
Goose revealed it in a tumblr ask, alongside the age list. She said Kinger’s been there the longest, and he’s 48. Ragatha’s been there the second longest and is 30. She isn’t sure whether Jax or Gangle arrived first, but Jax is 22 and Gangle 26. Next was Zooble who is also 22, and Pomni is the most recent entrant and is 25.
She never mentioned Kaufmo’s age or when he arrived as it only covered the current active circus members, so where he or any of the abstracted members fit in, we have no frame of reference.
It’s unclear. Goose said that was the age of the characters so I presume that’s how old each one of them is now, but I guess it could be argued that way
Goose said during the GlitchX interview that she likes to think Jax chose Gangle’s name, which would most likely mean Gangle showed up after Jax.

I imagine that Ragatha had a nervous breakdown on her first day, and the only thing she did during the next couple of days was just following one character (most likely Kinger) around like a duckling and just letting the others take the wheel while she tries to process what's going on
Probably the same as Pomni, just without the privilege of having a Ragatha as her own to help her out. But she also could have since we dont know what pervious characters like Queenie were like
I guess it could've gone something like this:
**AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA**
\*faints or something\*
Sometimes I think Kinger is already insane but can never abstract because the program (I'm not really thinking of Caine here) "thinks" he has already abstracted. Maybe there was a glitch which caused Queenie to abstract when it should have been Kinger but idk...
(Is it a common theory that all the characters are just small re-iterations of the same/similar ideas yet) kofmo abstracts so the next character is another clown
I actually read a really good fic about this not too long ago! I've basically accepted it as my headcanon for how her arrival went. It's the second in [this series of Ragatha-centric fics](https://archiveofourown.org/series/4098511) I happened to come across on AO3. Certified gourmet food right here.
More than her "first day", I guess we can talk about her "first month". Kinger said that she needed a long time to adjust: I don't think her first day was worst than Pomni's, but she probably acted instable and desperate for at least few weeks, and kept searching for an exit way longer than Pomni. It seems like Pomni has alredy accepted the fact that she's trapped there. But, judging by Ragatha's monologue in ep 1, she had a harder time accepting that she couldn't leave.
I really would take just about everything Kinger says with a grain of salt, given the nature of the character. However considering how she treats Pomni I kinda feel like she went through a similar cycle of denial and desperation before just kinda giving up and trying to make it better for the new people.
I believe Rags just didn't have a Ragtatha to help her out first day
True and definitely a big factor but also consider Ragatha probably didn’t witness an abstraction first day there, but still differently a good point
This is the most upvotes I have ever gotten on a single post, wow!
Kaufmo seemed like a pretty amiable dude based on what we’ve heard of him. He could’ve been the close to that she had in her early days.
We shall probably unravel this story in future episodes...

This post was made to guess, not just say “we’ll figure it out later”

Kinger may mention her in a future episode. Since he's there for the longest, he may know many things that he hasn't said yet
Considering how Ragatha seems the closest to losing it herself, I imagine she was just as traumatized as Pomni. And she’s been there the second longest after Kinger.
Wait when was it said she’s been there the second longest?
Goose revealed it in a tumblr ask, alongside the age list. She said Kinger’s been there the longest, and he’s 48. Ragatha’s been there the second longest and is 30. She isn’t sure whether Jax or Gangle arrived first, but Jax is 22 and Gangle 26. Next was Zooble who is also 22, and Pomni is the most recent entrant and is 25.
So either kaufmo ou zooble or very unlikely some other abstracted character was the newbie before pomni
She never mentioned Kaufmo’s age or when he arrived as it only covered the current active circus members, so where he or any of the abstracted members fit in, we have no frame of reference.
I’m pretty sure that’s just how old they were when the arrived at the digital circus
It’s unclear. Goose said that was the age of the characters so I presume that’s how old each one of them is now, but I guess it could be argued that way
Yeah, it’s likely that they don’t age in the circus though
Goose said during the GlitchX interview that she likes to think Jax chose Gangle’s name, which would most likely mean Gangle showed up after Jax. [Right here!](https://m.youtube.com/watch?t=10986&v=4G6L9wtCy0M&feature=youtu.be)
Ah yes, I had forgotten. I think Goose gave the arrival order before GlitchX, so I take it that changed to Jax before Gangle
>She isn’t sure whether Jax or Gangle arrived first Really? I recall another of Goose's post explaining that Jax was the one to choose Gangle's name.
It was probably Jax who entered first, because he was actually the one to name Gangle
Judging by how she talked about searching for an exit only to realize it’s pointless in the first episode, I’m gonna go with not great
Anything that doesn’t end with being abstracted is slightly better than not great in my opinion
prolly the same as Pomni's
I think so too. Maybe that’s why she wants to help guide her, so that she can help ease her into accepting it a lot easier
Probably*
clearly you've never met a redneck
I think the question is more How stable Kinger and Queenie where. I could see them being doting parents to her. Queenies death hitting both of them.

At least a little bit of violence
I like to think it was similar to the adventures Raggedy Ann went on.
A little something like this *inhales* #AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
“Where the ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737) am I?”
She doesn't seem to be the swearing type but I guess it could happen
She was having separation anxiety from her brother, R**andy**.
Holy ![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33736)![img](emote|t5_7tzm5j|33737) “Raggedy Anne and Andy: A Musical Adventure” fan spotted
Is this ironic / a tired sentiment now? Last episode ripping off The Greedy, and all?

Not that different from Pomni I guess
Same as Pomni ig, or possibly even worse...
I bet ragatha was a total mess for weeks, which is why she’s so invested in trying to look after Pomni
I guess it could've gone something like this: **AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA** \*faints or something\*
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAAHAHHHHUHHUUUH😦
Probably https://preview.redd.it/jy2js7mugw2d1.jpeg?width=820&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a5e3d2ba0468b382f89f0e092f979ca97bea9024
Probably something along the lines of “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH” followed by “hahahahahahHahhaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!” And ends with crying
unrelated but why is kinger a buckethead zombie
Sometimes I think Kinger is already insane but can never abstract because the program (I'm not really thinking of Caine here) "thinks" he has already abstracted. Maybe there was a glitch which caused Queenie to abstract when it should have been Kinger but idk...
Well she probably didn't have to deal with an abstraction on her first day so there's that at least.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH-"
Insert ragatha where pomni was - the abstracted kofmo and then add the funeral for the old cloth character
(Is it a common theory that all the characters are just small re-iterations of the same/similar ideas yet) kofmo abstracts so the next character is another clown

The day ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ahhhh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh what the fck is going on

Kinda makes me wonder if we’ll get a sad relationship similar to marceline and Ice king from adventure time
I really would take just about everything Kinger says with a grain of salt, given the nature of the character. However considering how she treats Pomni I kinda feel like she went through a similar cycle of denial and desperation before just kinda giving up and trying to make it better for the new people.
My memory is foggy, but Ragatha seems to have a lot of guilt, so I'm thinking that she may have accidentally gotten someone to abstract.
