Welcome to the CERES! You are now under arrest!


Did you think the glitches were over? Boy, were you wrong! Through the last remnants of the digital kerfluffle, the latest batch of recovered code has manifested in CERES' computer systems as the guilty parties. Yes, that's right, all incoming arrivals are now placed on the wanted list, accused of having committed the heinous crime of creating and releasing the gorg0n virus all over Cerealia. These vicious twelve have been working together all along and conspiring against CERES, and it's now up to everyone to figure out if the new arrivals are truly guilty or if they are as innocent and confused as they claim.

In the meantime, CERES has dispatched assassination droids to stop the accused and bring them to justice via disembowelment. So while CERES rushes to stop the droids from committing murder, characters are perfectly welcome to a.) soil themselves b.) fight off the droids c.) run while soiling themselves or d.) cry a lot. e.) ask for assistance!

"ASSASSINATION MODE: ONLINE
OBJECTIVE: ELIMINATE THE ACCUSED
TIMEFRAME: 24:00 HOURS




JUDICIAL UNIT-00345 DISPATCHED"

//SCENARIOS.EXE
PHASE I
[ 00:01 ] It's a minute passed midnight, and the newest sets of recovered code are being spat out of ViViD and into Cerealia. Before the joyful reunions begin, an announcement starts blaring through everyone's computer screen, TV sets, devices, billboard screens, and so on. The image flashes with twelve names and twelve pictures along with a list of crimes each person has committed. They continue to flash again and again throughout the colony, alerting everyone of these heinous criminals. It's up to anyone if they want to engage them or stay far, far away from these perverts and miscreants.

As the arrivals begin to explore, they will see themselves plastered on just about every screen imaginable.
PHASE II
[ 2:00 ] It's still dark outside, hardly anyone out and about. It's the perfect time for an assassination attempt because that's when the information is received and processed by Cerealia's judicial system, but this isn't a job for any ordinary donut-eating cop. No, this is far greater than that. They bring out the big guns.

Twelve assassination droids, clad in armor and carrying katana, are immediately dispatched and sent to take out each of the accused at any cost. Characters are welcome to do any of the above choices while veterans to Cerealia can assist the arrivals, assist the droids, or just sit back and watch others suffer. It's completely up to you. They can also run into the droids on their search and try to interact with them.
PHASE III
[ 7:00 ] Your friendly CEO has finally gotten his ass out of bed, but by then, who knows how many people are left alive? After hearing of the kerfluffle, he decides to issue a cease and desist on the assassination droids, and instead, has his investigation units step in to confirm that the new arrivals are not guilty of any of the crimes and charges listed under their name. They will be pulled aside for painful, painful questioning before being released to explore as they wish.

To make up for all the damages and trauma incurred from the near-death attempts, Julius will also be giving the new arrivals a settlement of 20,000 credits each, so go out and party.
PHASE IV
[ 12:00 ] By noon, the incident has been cleared up with little to no blood spilled (hopefully). New arrivals are welcome to explore and enjoy their new living arrangements or possibly lie in bed and just cry some more. Either way, welcome to the magic that is Cerealia. The CEO will announce that the last of the virus has been officially cleaned up and taken care of, and he'll be issuing a video with a public apology for all.

BONUS
[ why:o'clock ] Among the police droids dispatched, there will be a rehabilitative droid in a dinosaur suit, looking to cure the criminals of their improper behavior and their moral indiscretions through the power of LOVE and HUGS. It was developed after the researchers in CERES did extensive research on other worlds and found that this mystical creature was capable of creating worldwide joy and cheer. It will be chasing those who are on the Wanted List exclusively, but it will not stop at just them. Your character will be accosted and hugged whether they like it or not.

Welcome to CEREALIA's latest intro post. For your convenience, we have compiled a post detailing everyone's arrival experience and a FAQ that should explain everything in more detail. Please read them thoroughly before playing. Thank you!

[ OH MY GDO BAYONETTA YOU CAN'T JUST ACCUSE PEOPLE OF BEING ANTHROPOMORPHIC DINOSAUR FETISHISTS .................. ]

N-NO! I was concerned that it's still out there terrorizing people!

[ He drops the scandalized glower for all of five seconds to jab at the droid suit in question. ]

I don't think stealing its hide was a good thing. They might have taken us on false charges before, but couldn't you be arrested for vandalism now?

[ LOOK, WHO EVEN KNEW THERE WAS OTHER WORLDS AND ROBOTS WITH A CORE-DEEP INCLINATION FOR MURDER???????

As far as Elliot's concerned, he wasn't even aware there were other universes, so it's taken some restraint not to go spouting off questions at the first chance he gets, but it's proving to be more difficult than he'd initially believed to be inordinately mouthy about demanding answers.

The million-dollar question: ]
Well — what were you doing before this happened? Do you remember being knocked out?
meriter: (hey why hey WWWWHY)

[personal profile] meriter 2014-11-03 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[ COULDN'T HE JUST PLEAD MADNESS????? WHERE'S THE COMPENSATION FOR THE CRIMINALLY INSANE???? HE'S BEING DENIED HIS RIGHTS?????

Since the Miranda warning apparently doesn't apply (not that it'd make much of a difference when it comes to executioners without the emotional capacity for remorse or human empathy), he whips his head back up to gauge the spanning coast with a near-feverish anxiety, the bite of exertion obstinately stuck between both ribs. It's only after a good seven minutes pass that he relents to shouldering his weight against a wall, momentarily closing his eyes with the movement. ]


... Okay. But I think we should still be on guard, just in case.

[ Finally sated with a few more wild gulps of air, he appraises his fellow conspirator the hapless bystander with an expression grazing mild sheepishness. ] Do you have any idea where we should go, then?
changeably: (Another day is gone)

Everyone working there wears costumes, instead of normal clothes! They change often, so it's terribly fun to see what we wear each week. The customers enjoy it, too, though they aren't forced to participate, if they don't want to.

[tl;dr, he works in a cosplay cafe, because it had the word "play" in it and he got impulsive when picking jobs.]
unluckless: (bluebird of friendliness)

[personal profile] unluckless 2014-11-03 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Let him process this mental image for a moment. He blinks again before ducking his head, trying to swallow back a laugh.] I hadn't thought of it that way.

[But he's totally going to mention this to Hinata just to see his reaction. He imagines it'll be great.]
unluckless: (shpwreck free)

[personal profile] unluckless 2014-11-03 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Komaeda shakes his head. That is a good point, a good question.] If what they say is true, they need us. Even if what they say isn't true, they bring us all here for some reason.

[Even if that reason is some experiment or their own amusement.] You do have a good point. All this seems really advanced and futuristic. To met at least.

Other people are from different times though.
flaredo: (Sure are a lot of tumbleweeds today)

[personal profile] flaredo 2014-11-03 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
...

Are you some kind of bigwig or something?
flaredo: (Now THAT'S a thrill!)

[personal profile] flaredo 2014-11-03 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
That actually sounds like a lot of fun! I'd love to drop by and see the costumes!

[personal profile] solarbeam 2014-11-03 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, sorry... it means they thought we'd accept everything easier. [ Sigh. ] Of course, that was before all of this.

[she's been through some stuff, but...]

From me, really? [yes, this genuinely is surprising to her.]
unpresidential: (pic#8080053)

[personal profile] unpresidential 2014-11-03 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Do I look like some kind of detective to you or something?
flaredo: (Shut up my thoughts are more important)

[personal profile] flaredo 2014-11-03 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
Do I? Sometimes we've gotta move outside of our roles here.
flaredo: (Of course I don't start fights)

[personal profile] flaredo 2014-11-03 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
Ours are a liiittle bit bigger. Not by much, but...
flaredo: (Pre-hairflip?  Pre-hairflip.)

[personal profile] flaredo 2014-11-03 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
Really! I was pretty single-minded as a kid, in the wrong way.
flaredo: (Fly through the air)

[personal profile] flaredo 2014-11-03 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
In circles, probably! But I'm sure we'll find another one eventually!
unpresidential: (pic#8080053)

[personal profile] unpresidential 2014-11-03 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
[he wouldn't be sure if that was marginally better or worse than being interrogated by the cops. his indiscretions never landed him in a courtroom before.]

Anything else? [after a short pause and a tilt of the head while he considers it. once he's come to some sort of conclusion, he'll shake his head.] I left after that... to where they told us we could live. Nothing weird like some other times.
foodcritic: (pic#8361868)

why are you so cruel to me jelle... why...

[personal profile] foodcritic 2014-11-03 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
You're the one who... implied it in the first place, you know! You did say it was like a monster...

[and it's kind of true. but...] I guess you're still better looking than a golem, even if you have that scary kind of face.
foodcritic: (pic#8363014)

[personal profile] foodcritic 2014-11-03 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! [she neglected to mention that part, huh. okay, so her social graces aren't always great, though she's usually good at mentioning that much.]

I'm Elle! And what about you?
flaredo: (Hark!  The herald Weiss shrieks!)

[personal profile] flaredo 2014-11-03 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Really? Give his hair a good long look next time, you'll see it.
unluckless: (i'd be fire if that were my job)

[personal profile] unluckless 2014-11-03 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
Just... a little more! [Komaeda pulls with all his unimpressive strength. He braces his feet against the ground, looking to the robot accusingly. Really, if it would just let go that would be much easier. Technology here is rather difficult at times.

All at once the arm gives way though, and Komaeda stumbles back with a startled yelp, tripping back to land more or less on his butt.

Oh hey! What luck.]
unluckless: (and kept the beeches)

[personal profile] unluckless 2014-11-03 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
I will, but I can picture it pretty well. There's this piece that... [He lifts a hand to wiggle a finger atop his head to mime Hinata's ahoge (though he has one of his own he shouldn't talk)]

Either way, I think it really suits him either way.
foodcritic: (pic#8414939)

[personal profile] foodcritic 2014-11-03 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
It sounds pretty stupid to me. They explain things pretty bad and then think we'd accept it easy? Grownups don't make any sense sometimes.

[with or without the current situation, it seems pretty dumb as far as elle can see.]
souredsweet: mewtube (right through you)

[personal profile] souredsweet 2014-11-03 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Expecting Kaoru to be of any help in any situation... That's just asking for trouble, Yuki!!]

I don't see anything like that... [Probably because the robot is wearing a dINO SUIT.]
souredsweet: jackandtink (you've got some tuberculosis on you)

[personal profile] souredsweet 2014-11-03 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
[NO RIGHTS FOR ELLIOT and no rights for the hugbot, which mercifully seems to be done tormenting one Nightray. Rather, Kaoru's keen sense of hearing can't pick up on its heavier-than-human footsteps anywhere nearby.

And then the waiting starts and stretches on, because Kaoru is certainly not going to interrupt the moments of silence that this boy clearly needs. One can say "it's fine, it's fine" until they turn blue in the face and it still wouldn't be enough reassurance to some, so Elliot will have to garner that reassurance on his own. Once the seven minutes have passed, Kaoru's posture relaxes just a little - it's a minute change, more for comfort than anything.]


You aren't wrong. [About keeping guard, that is. The hugbot may not be interested in pursuit, but the murderdroids sure are.

A soft smile is offered for the question, though.]
Away from the most crowded areas, but not so far out that you would make an easy target... [After a second of thought:] There's a cafe in town with a reading nook away from the storefront, by the fireplace. I don't think any of those creatures would look for you there.
unjustify: breadcrusts (an idiot.....)

[personal profile] unjustify 2014-11-03 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Giving her a thumbs up right back.]

I'll be seeing you around, in that case. [AND HE'S OFF.]
