Circles of Apollonius two ways

Because the problem of Apollonius is generally considered over the reals, it suffers from variance of number: there are at most eight circles simultaneously tangent to a given trio of circles, but some configurations have fewer than eight tangent circles. This issue arises over other non-closed fields as well. Using the tools of enriched enumerative geometry, we give two different ways to count the circles of Apollonius such that invariance of number holds over any field of characteristic not 2. We also pose the geometricity problem for local indices in enriched enumerative geometry.
