![]() 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-

Welcome to CEREALIA's latest event and intro post. For your convenience, we have compiled a post detailing what's going on right here and feel free to consult the FAQ if needed. Please leave any lingering questions in the OOC post, and we'll answer them as soon as we can. If this post goes into overflow, we will make a new one to deal with the ever-hated captcha! Worry not! |
iii.
The great thing about the sun though is that its energy is so limitless.
...So she recovers, just in time to yank him back when he nearly walks into a pole.
She isn't particularly gentle about it, either.]
Whoops! [a grin] ...Watch it, now.
no subject
He's definitely losing his footing, though, stumbling but oh great mercies he doesn't fall on his butt.]
Thank...s? [THAT SAID I think you could've grabbed me in a less rough way, oi.] What just happened, anyway...?
no subject
[She says this like it isn't something to be concerned about; though the part of her that's still a nurse knows better. Unfortunately, that part is currently overtaken by a sense of happiness and pride that she'd been able to pull him back in time...
So she probably comes off more cheerful than she should (and blissfully unaware of how rough she'd been).]
Well, I don't really know either! But it looked like you were about to make friends with that pole just now.
no subject
...I was? [Another look true enough that pole is still there.] I... guess I must've been thinking about other stuff.
[He places his fingers against his temple, grimacing.] Sorry.
no subject
Don't be silly. I'm glad I snapped you out of it.
[......]
Are you going to be okay, though? Be honest.
no subject
(It might, it's the hand he was using to play games earlier.)]
I think I will. I... [...Sigh.] I'm not sure, actually. I'll be okay once I figure out what's going on, I think.
no subject
Leia doesn't really get it. She's normally this sunny and bubbly (almost), so it really doesn't occur to her that something be off, at least until now. When Hinata stares at his hand, she does, too.
Then she looks back up to meet his eyes.]
I'll help!
no subject
[He has to try and puzzle out why he's getting all apathetic again, after all... He doesn't think she'll be able to lend a hand so easily...
Though her enthusiasm is admirable. Yes. Admirable.]
no subject
Well... um -- [She has to think of something!] I... er, I could at least treat you to a nice meal or something! Maybe a nice, cool refreshing drink?
That helps me sometimes when I get writer's block. [Though in his case it's more like 'everything block,' she supposes.]
no subject
I think I'd feel bad if it was just me being treated... so how about if you treat me to a drink, I'll treat you to one back?
[Shhh so what if it just leads to them basically buying their own it's a little different in a subtle way.]
no subject
It's a deal.
[...]
Though we should probably get each others' names first, huh?
no subject
Right-- I'm Hinata. [He inclines his head slightly.]
Hajime Hinata. And you are?
no subject
[It's a rhetorical question. The next one, though--not so much.]
So... what kind of things do you like to eat and drink?
no subject
[He actually has to think about it.]
I'm not that picky, to be honest. [But he's over canned food... tbh.] I've never had that many food I really disliked... [besides sakuramochi] ...or really liked. [besides kusamochi] Right now I think I could go for a slushy drink, though...
[Like maybe bubble tea...]
What about you?
no subject
[She agrees eagerly, closing her eyes and clapping her hands together like this is the best idea ever (it is). Then she opens them again, meeting Hinata's eyes.]
I'm not really picky either, but I'm pretty sure I'll see something I like when we get there.
Maybe a nice sandwich or something!
no subject
[And he's decided on bubble tea... Truth is, he's not too hungry, and there's a roiling unease in him over what's been happening, growing more and more the more that impulse grows in his mind.
But... If he stays distracted and doesn't think of it, that could help, couldn't it?]
no subject
[Leia nods quickly, and she puts an encouraging hand on his shoulder like she's about to guide him in the right direction. She realizes, though, that she's got a long way to go before she learns her way around this place...
So after a moment, she withdraws the hand and looks thoughtfully at the path veering to the right ahead of them.]
It was this way, I think.
no subject
He does nod though, firmly!]
Yeah. We go this way for a bit, and then we take another street to the left and the main food stop is right around there.
no subject
[Sort of. It's helpful to have his guidance, anyway... even if she does feel a bit like a seeing-eye dog right now. At least she's more gentle than the first time when she pulls him this way and that to dodge obstacles.
Man, this just isn't normal.]
So... how long has it been like this again? You... thinking about other stuff...?
[So maybe she didn't ask in the first place, but she's kind of worried at this point, okay. It reminds her a little too much of how Jude was a year ago, after...]
no subject
[Hinata's lips purse slightly as he looks ahead of them. One of his hands rubs across his hair.]
I didn't wake up like this. I feel like it's been...getting worse through the whole day. But it wasn't like this yesterday, it only started after--
[Something he should have thought of first, naturally. He thinks of the games he played yesterday and his eyes narrow.] ...
no subject
[Leia remains attentive, listening as she would to any patient. She tilts her head, oblivious at first; but once she thinks a little more, she puts it together quickly enough.]
The party? [...hm.] Were you there, too?
no subject
Yeah. I was, for a little while. I wanted to investigate the games that they were having us play.
[But... Think. He thinks of the game that was different from the others, the fortune-telling game, the tarot.]
no subject
Yeah, I remember those! They wanted us to test them so bad that they gave out free credits.
It was... really weird. They all kind of blurred together after a while.
[One after another, after another...
Except the one.]
no subject
One of them was hardly a game at all, right? That fortune-telling one.
['Justice'. That was his card, though even as he thinks of it he can feel that nagging at the back of his mind.
No. He shakes his head minutely.]
