THE FIRST THEORY SEEMS SO PLAUSIBLE TO ME.

Kind of relevant add-on:

I think that since Pomni has been playing the role of the therapist in the story so far, that she’ll see some of Jax’s vulnerable side when finding him sneak into her room to grab something for a memento. That’d make for a pretty funny interaction lol.

WHAT JAX IS HIDING IN HIS ROOM?

As we know, Jax’s room is the only one we haven’t seen yet. Yes, we’ve seen Zooble and Pomni’s rooms in the show, but even from the merchandise since the pilot, we could spot backgrounds of everyone’s rooms… except for Jax’s. So, what is he hiding?

Here are 3 theories. The first one seems the most plausible to me, the second one came to me after the pilot, and the third one is more of a fan theory I’ve seen circulating around.

1. Jax keeps mementos from other characters.

In the pilot, we see him carrying a bowling ball from Kaufmo’s room to his own. This bowling ball is also visible in the merchandise. He has keys to all the other circus members’ rooms. We even remember him saying in the pilot that he left a centipede in Ragatha’s room and that he got keys everywhere, and you've all been fine.

Imagine if he has mementos from all the other characters, even the scattered ones he knows. Maybe a “part” of Zooble, Kinger’s pillow, Gangle’s drawing, Kaufmo’s bowling ball, for example and etc.

This idea was sparked by a scene in episode 2, at Kaufmo’s funeral, where someone left flowers and someone else left a drawing (Gangle, for instance). What if, after everyone left for their rooms and fell asleep, Jax went to Kaufmo’s “makeshift grave,” left a personal item connected to him, and expressed how he missed him and partly blamed himself for Kaufmo’s death?

Oh, sorry, we kind of went off on a tangent here… I’ll be doing a separate post on that topic! Sometimes my thoughts just wander 🤗

2. His room is full of keys.

In my mind, this would look like a huge wall covered with piles of keys, possibly with some notes about where they’re from. Some might be mementos, others just for fun. At the very least, they’d be from other characters’ rooms (Ragatha’s, Kaufmo’s), and maybe even from doors in the kingdom (episode 2). At the most extreme, he could have keys to secret rooms or even the exit. Who knows?)

3. Void.

In the pilot, “void” just represents literal emptiness. It’s a blank digital space. The merchandise also features fragments of this empty space, almost like an “unfinished room.” While I don’t really believe in this theory, I don’t understand why Jax would have an unfinished room. For my theories, I always try to find meaning and answer the question why. But here, I just don’t see the meaning. Either I’m blind, or it simply isn’t there¿

In any case, as I’ve said before, I accept all theories and never completely dismiss anything.
