Always Believe in the Heart of the Cards Except When They Tell You to Kill People


Welcome to CERES Research Tower’s latest event! For all you new folk queuing outside of the conference room where you were just made to sit through a lovely power point presentation, you will be asked to stay a bit longer and test out some games in their Game Testing Center. It’s a giant space located in the basement level filled to the brim with cubicles for everyone to sit in and enjoy their newest array of pop-up games. The games themselves will be in holo(gm) form and will feature suggestions from CEO’s post, including a simplified, 8-bit version of Tetris, Baseball, Soda Smash, etc. Characters can control the game through moving their fingers and tapping them against the holo(gm) screens.

Surrounding the cubicles will be tables of food and more food for characters to partake in. It’s all safe this time. No mind-altering candy corn or gut-exploding Knight Burgers. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the party. For those who have been in Cerealia for a while, they should have received an invitation to the event and an offer of 1,000 credits just for participating. So come on down and bring a friend or ten! Meanwhile, CEO has a small welcome for everyone-

“Good Morning and thank you all for coming!

We have been expecting you. We hope you will enjoy what we’ve put together today. Ever since we got your feedback on << RAINBOW NARWHAL MELEE >>, we’ve been developing new games for all of you to enjoy. We’ve also tried to draw in some things from your worlds. We hope to hear more feedback from you in the future.

In the meantime, feel free to sample our food, generously provided to us by TGICERES, a moderately-priced family restaurant located in the Shopping District."


//SCENARIOS.EXE
PHASE I
[ xx:xx ] Music lightly wafts from the speakers as the showroom opens. Julius Vincere, CERES’ CEO, delivers the opening announcement before leaving the room. He’ll be watching through all the video cameras placed around the room, so be on your best behavior! You will be guided to one of the many cubicles where you will sit and wait for a screen to pop up with a game. Once that game is defeated, another will pop up and another and another until your character gets hungry/has to pee/is so done with this shit.
PHASE II
[ xx:xx ] Among the game rotations is a simple 8-bit fortune telling game starring Aria, the fortune teller. Come be enchanted by her mysterious wiles as she reads your future. She will do some 8-bit arm motions before summoning a ring of cards that will float around her. Characters will be encouraged to pick a card -any card. Once one has been selected, it will turn around slowly and unveil a card from the major arcana. Aria will then give your character their fortune, and that will be that. End of game. Onto the next!
PHASE III
[ xx:xx ] You’ve left the testing center, and the evening has passed. As you wake up to perform your normal daily tasks, a niggling urge emerges at the back of your mind. It’s faint at first, just a whisper of a suggestion that pokes at your brain like a mosquito bite. However, that bite starts to grow bigger and become infectious. As the day wears on, you find that one little suggestion escalating. The next day is even worse. It starts to dominate your every thought, making you carry out actions you never thought yourself capable of. Who is this person in the mirror? Who have you become?
PHASE IV
[ xx:xx ] By day three, the impulse is now a full-blown addiction. It’s set into your psyche completely. You’ve become something else entirely –the embodiment of the card. You will be acting out everything without anymore resistance, and it won’t stop until the clock strikes midnight. That’s when you’ll reel back to your senses, and when it’ll all have felt like the worst dream ever. Or a nightmare really.
BONUS
[ why:o'clock ] Among all the games present, there is also an 8-bit version of CERESLearn. Yes, you remember the magical game that won your hearts over not too long ago. It will come complete with the same rules. You choose a subject, you choose an 8-bit teacher among the three (Astor), (Hilda), or (UN-Zippy), and you watch them as they try to erotically teach you what you want to learn. Is that an 8-bit boob or her arm? Who knows? But beware… as you may remember, these teachers house a very terrible secret.

They will transform into an 8-bit giant bug that will chase around your protag as you guide them to run away with your finger, but you can also flick the bug on the holo(gm) screen to send them away for good. Those who figure out that little cheat code will immediately receive a special real-time shoulder rub as a reward from a robot that looks eerily like a carbon copy of their teacher of choice.

[Rock Lee doesn't turn to face the girl when she peeks in; his eyes remain focused intensely on the current game of Tetris. As she asks him questions, he quickly fires back answers. But at least they're with a friendly tone.]

Eight! This game will make nine! Ah... I would love to take part in a youthful competition!!

Wow! You're really good!

[She's beaten a good number herself, but got a little distracted by food and other people before really getting that high up.]

Great!! When you're finished with that game then, we can figure out what to play!
niceguypose: (talking)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-16 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you! [Apparently an inner gamer has been awakened; he hasn't moved since he first sat down.]

You can feel free to think over choices now! I have to clear these blocks... all of them!
ineptus: (85 ★; ƜнιѕтƖє тσ тнє вιяɗѕ αѕ тнєу cαƖƖ)

[personal profile] ineptus 2015-01-16 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
I'll think some over but we should decide together! That way it's fair, right?

[You clear those blocks, Rock Lee. Become the gamer you were born to be.]

Are you playing Tetris?
niceguypose: (chipper)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-16 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, that sounds very fair young lady! And, yes a second time, this game is called Tetris! I believe I am on the verge of mastering it!

[Oops, one block didn't land the way he was planning to. Oh well, he thinks, just a minor setback. He's sure he'll get the right block to clear it up soon enough.]
ineptus: (35 ❤; Rαιηвσω αвσνє уσυ)

[personal profile] ineptus 2015-01-16 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I thought so! And wow, you must have some pretty good hand-eye coordination then! I'm not very good at Tetris, so that's really cool!

[Hmm what game should she challenge him to...gotta be something really fun. And something that would give them a clear winner!]

Dipper's pretty good at it though, maybe you should challenge him later! He's being a dumb butt and refuses to have any fun.
niceguypose: (blank)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-16 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[A dumb.,. butt... Lee has never heard this before. Could it be a health problem? Lee gives a grave nod.]

I see... I am sorry for his condition. I will gladly challenge him later!

Thank you for cheering as well! My hand-etye coordination... It's all due to my training! Tnese are skills required by a ninja after all.

[Even so, his little mistakes on the game arw multiplying so that multiple incomplete rows pile up. Lee becomes more frantic as he tries to recover this.]
ineptus: (102 ★; Aηɗ тнє уσυтн ιηѕιɗє ωσυƖɗ ѕcяєαм)

[personal profile] ineptus 2015-01-16 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[His condition...??? Mabel isn't sure what exactly Lee is referring to, but honestly she isn't going to correct him. Because she's pretty sure it's going to end hilariously, and Dipper deserves it!

For being a dumb butt.]


Ah, thank you, it's okay though. And good! That'll brighten up his day I'm sure!

Oh, he looks basically exactly like me, since we're twins, except his hair is shorter, he's not nearly as cute and he's got this hat with a pine tree on--wait.

[Wait hold the phone.]

You're a ninja?!
niceguypose: (talking)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-17 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
I'm glad to hear that - I will commit all of that to memory! [Sorry Dipper you're going to be ambushed by this concerned ninja soon.

Speaking of the concept of being a ninja, Rock Lee smiles as a friendly smile crosses his face.]


And... Yes, I am a ninja!
ineptus: (172 ☀; Aιη'т ιт тσρ)

[personal profile] ineptus 2015-01-17 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
That's so cool!!! So do you use ninjitsu and stuff? Do you fight with shuriken and carry out secret missions and defeat the forces of evil? Or wait are you an evil ninja??

[Sparkle sparkle that is so cool look at all of this admiration she knows AN ACTUAL NINJA.]
niceguypose: (friendly)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-17 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... No, to be honest, I am a ninja who cannot use ninjutsu! I have sometimes used shuriken, and some of our missions have been of a secret nature! I have faced several evil forces... but I am not evil myself! I am just a youthful ninja who tries to do good!
ineptus: (14 ❤; Ɓυт ǀ'ƖƖ fιηɗ α ρƖαcє тσ ѕтαу)

[personal profile] ineptus 2015-01-17 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
You can't use ninjutsu but you're still a ninja...that is even cooler!!

[By the time he's done explaining she's bouncing on her toes, almost vibrating with excitement.]

You have to tell me more! I've never met a real ninja before!! I've seen them in plenty of anime but this is so much better! Dipper's going to be super jealous!
niceguypose: (I accept)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-17 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Rock Lee looks bashful at the compliment. What a sweet-hearted young girl!]

Ah... Th-thank you very much, Miss! I would be glad to tell you so much about my life as a ninja! [Maybe leaving out a lot of the tragic and traumatic parts.] Where should I begin?!

[Lee shifts to face her now, not even caring that his Tetris reached a game-over.]
ineptus: (30 ❤; Ƭнє fєєƖιηg σf Ɩєттιηg gσ)

[personal profile] ineptus 2015-01-17 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
Anywhere! How did you become a ninja? How young were you? That'd be a good place! I want to hear everything!
niceguypose: (friendship)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-17 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
Then I will tell you! It all started in Konoha Village, where I was born. It is a hidden ninja village in the Land of Fire! Ah... I joined the Academy when I was a small boy, and there I learned all of the basics of being a ninja! I found out that I had no skill for using ninjutsu or genjutsu, but I trained my taijutsu instead. I became determined to make it as a ninja with just that... and I was able to graduate!
ineptus: (179 ☀; Ɯιтн тнє ρѕуcнєɗєƖιc νιѕισηѕ)

[personal profile] ineptus 2015-01-17 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
[She looks enraptured in this, chin in her hands as she listens.]

The Land of Fire? Is that like a desert-y volcano-y place? A hidden ninja village?! That's so cool!! Does that mean everyone there becomes a ninja too? Small boy does that mean around my age? Like could I be a ninja?

[There's a soft gasp after that question comes out and she gives him the biggest, most hopeful look in the entire world.]

Could I be a ninja you think?!
niceguypose: (friendly)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-17 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
[He chuckles softly to himself.]

The Land of Fire is not like that... it is actually very forested! Not everyone in the village chooses to become a ninja, but many do! That may indeed be around your age... I believe that you could be a ninja! How old do you happen to be?
ineptus: (120 ★; Ɯнαт'ѕ тяυє)

[personal profile] ineptus 2015-01-19 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
I'm twelve! Twelve years old but I'm going to be thirteen soon!!

[The rest of what he said can wait. Being a ninja is Very Important to her, and she is practically on the edge of her seat waiting for his verdict.]
niceguypose: (Here drink some)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-19 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... Is that so? [He quickly tries to think of a way to tell her with minimal disappointment.] 12 is actually the year that I graduated from the academy. However, I still believe that you have potential, and a real fighting spirit! I could gladly teach you how to fight!
