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.

[ Shihoudou is just wandering around, or more like, skipping around, with clattering geta. The old woman stops to watch, amused. But she's always amused.
She laughs cheerfully when he flexes in her face, and she pats his arm. ]


You'll have to try harder to impress this granny!

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-17 12:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh?! [He glances up towards her, astonished. She doesn't quite look like a granny...]

Please tell me! How much harder would I have to try?!
makigumo: (18)

[personal profile] makigumo 2015-01-17 03:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm..! [ She fakes considering for a few moments. ] Oh, I know!

Catch my hat! [ It weights 1000 ton. People can't just easily catch it. ]
niceguypose: (ride me)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-17 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll catch it! I promise!

[He holds out his hands with a determined grimace.]
makigumo: (95)

[personal profile] makigumo 2015-01-17 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, three~ two~ one~!

[ She effortlessly tosses the hat up in the air, a perfect spin on the straw hat. It drops heavily. ]
niceguypose: (headlocked)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-18 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yosh! [He keeps his arms reached out. And... then in a moment his arms are pinned to the ground by it. He grunts as he tries futiley to lift at it. But even for someone as insanely strong as Lee, 1000 tons is probably a bit out of his range.]
makigumo: (99)

[personal profile] makigumo 2015-01-18 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ And Shihoudou starts lo laugh, very wolfishly. ]

Having trouble there?
niceguypose: (sadfaced)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-18 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Rock Lee makes a series of bizarre grunts as he keeps trying to apply himself.]

J... just a little! My youth... must not be at full power!
makigumo: (96)

[personal profile] makigumo 2015-01-18 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah, you just keep trying. ]

Maybe you should train it to be more obedient!
niceguypose: (anguish)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-18 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps... perhaps more training is the answer! But I cannot imagine my muscles looking even better than they do right now... [He says that even while whimpering in pain.]
makigumo: (95)

[personal profile] makigumo 2015-01-18 01:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Anything can be improved, Caterpillar-chan. [ She fishes up the hat with a finger, and puts a spin on it. ] Just look at granny, she's improved a lot~ [ But she's not human and she's super old.... ]
niceguypose: (bugging out)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-18 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[He gasps.]

You... you're so strong! How did you improve so much?! [It'll still take him a little while to peel his arms off the ground.]
makigumo: (88)

[personal profile] makigumo 2015-01-18 02:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She barks out a laugh. ]

I know I am! Granny's su~per strong! By training, of course.
niceguypose: (anguish)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-01-18 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Training! Of course! Ah... Would you train me?!
