The Gifts that Keeps on Giving ((You)) Nightmares


It's been a whole month without any new arrivals. Who knows why? If you ask CERES, they won't bother with any in-depth explanations. They will simply claim that none of the code out there has been responding to their recovery methods, so they had to rework a lot of their technology. However, after several weeks of grueling work, they have finally experienced success! A fresh new batch of faces is coming in, and to celebrate their arrival and the real upcoming holidays, CEO Julius Vincere has arranged for a Christmas-themed carnival for all to enjoy.

Those who arrive will wake up in Cerealia and be given a long, boring explanation and powerpoint as per usual before being ushered onto a bus (there is no escape. The robots will force you onto the bus one way or another). You will be unwillingly carted to the theme park where you will be immediately assaulted by a giant array of lights followed by several rides that you can enjoy. After you disembark from the bus, one of the snowman robots will be waiting to give you tickets to the rides and show you around as part of the Grand Opening. The amusement park will remain open for the rest of the month of December so anyone can visit as they please. The first couple tickets will also be on the house for new arrivals, but the rest will have to be bought with credits, so choose wisely! (Or try and sneak into the rides -- then face the wrath of the snowman robots and their snowman firearms :D)
"☃ WELCOME NEW ARRIVALS ❅

WE WISH TO BRING YOU MERRY FEELINGS FOR THE HOLIDAY ❅

WHAT? YOU DON'T WANT ONE ❅
BUT I WAS PROGRAMMED TO CONVEY HUGGING AS LOVE THROUGH AFFECTION ❅
PLEASE DON'T RUN ❅
COME BAAAAACK, VISITOR ❅"

//SCENARIOS.EXE
PHASE I
[ xx:xx ] Do you like ferris wheels? This is an enchanting one where you get to ride around in a giant snowflake at a very limited speed. The wheel will turn excruciatingly slow before stopping abruptly, leaving you trapped at the very top. We hope you're not afraid of heights because you're going to be in there for a while! The windows on the snowflake will rapidly darken leaving you and your fellow riders trapped in the darkness. At that moment, you will feel something warm breathing down your neck and along the back of your ear. As you reach over, you'll feel like the chair underneath you is made of snakeskin, and a hissing sound will intensify as the "chair" squirms and as the breathing gets louder and hotter. Scrabble at the doors, fight your way out! Will you escape or not? Probably not, but the experience will last only a good five minutes before the lights come back on and before the ferris wheel starts moving again. The chair will appear as normal, and there will be no one else inside except any fellow riders who came with you.
PHASE II
[ xx:xx ] If the ferris wheel didn't "do it" for you, then perhaps a fun house will? If you're a fan, that is! This Christmas-themed funhouse features a wonderful walk through a snowy forest convered in singing reindeer. The more you walk through, the more you will notice things like within the distorted mirrors, there will briefly appear strange specters. You will also hear a bunch of howling in the background, and while you may think that you're safe since they're trapped behind a mirror, you are very wrong. The lights will go out once more, and you will hear the mirrors shatter all around and feel yourself being grabbed and hurled to the ground. Whatever is coming for you is something you can't see, but it's advancing fast with impressive strength to hurl you back once more. You will feel pain erupt through your body before an engineer will appear to get the lights back on. Once they're back on, the reindeer will be happily singing, and all the mirrors will appear as they were before -unbroken.
PHASE III
[ xx:xx ] After those interesting adventures, another option would be to simply visit the rocking santacoaster, a large, sprawling roller coaster that reaches 150 mph. You will be strapped into a sled and be shot through the tracks where you can scream and cry all you want except once you reach the tunnel, everything will come to a sudden stop (whiplash pending). You and the other riders will be in there for a few minutes, surrounded by a dozen santas as they start to fly out from the tunnel walls, carrying swords and swooping down to take a swipe at you. You better duck or be prepared to be cut up by their blades. The rollercoaster will abruptly resume, and when you reach the end, you might notice some bleeding, a little bit of hair missing, or some clothes shred up. If you ask the snowman robots about it, they will just shrug and claim they don't know what you're talking about. Please go enjoy a snowcone on the house!
PHASE IV
[ xx:xx ] The Christmas whirl will be your last stop for the evening! This is a ride that goes round and round and round while tilting. Everyone will be strapped into it while standing up and forced to hold on as it spins, and somewhere in the midst of the spinning, the ride will suddenly malfunction. Yes, big surprise there! But it won't stop spinning. It will just be a rockier ride, and you will seemingly enter a new space where you will be among the stars and seeing planets all around you. Your own home planet will be amongst them before it breaks open like an egg and out crawls a friendly visitor. If you get bit by it, you will spend the rest of the day and night experiencing an array of possible symptoms, including: a voracious appetite, a fear of light, the urge to 'mate' with anyone who smells especially good, heightened senses, the ability to climb on all kinds of surfaces, irritability and crankiness... (( you don't have to experience them all. you can pick and choose which one you like. ))
BONUS
[ why:o'clock ] What's that jingling you hear in the background? Why, it's Santa Clause! Coming here all the way from the North Pole. The park will stop, and all the snowman robots will gather in the square, ushering along as many people as possible. Santa-Bot X-3 will be seated on his chair to welcome all visitors to sit on his metaphorical lap and tell him what they want for Christmas. He will then give them a nicely wrapped present and tell them that it's exactly what they asked for, but they can't open it until they get home. For those who can't wait and choose to open it quickly, they will get some nice treats from Mundus Caelestis. But beware! Those who do take this gift home will experience a weird after-effect as the lovely red and white toy will come to life on its own and hop out of the box that evening to try and violently electrocute the owner. The other one is completely harmless.

...

......

[Luckily he's still vaguely okay with Gundamese, though he'll have to get back into it. Hinata stops and turns to face him properly, lifting up his hands.] When it comes to my intentions... you already know them, right, Tanaka?

As a friend, I want to tell you about what's happened, even if it sounds crazy. You don't even have to believe it all [he won't force him to, of course], but I wouldn't feel right keeping it from you.

[... what a sweet young girl.]

You know, an attitude like that's only going to get you into trouble someday. You don't know anything about me. What if I was the instigator and was actually a very dangerous, violent person?
compossible: (You Already Changed The Past)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-03-24 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[She's... going to go ahead and not listen to most of that, really, because the gentle distress is cute.]

I'll take your advice, but make sure to take responsibility for it if it all goes wrong, okay?

[She looks so happy about it, too.... even as she moves to head further in.]
shacklebreaker: (this evidence is balderdash)

[personal profile] shacklebreaker 2015-03-24 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[He looks around for the numbers as they swerve away.]

Two and Five... Though it seems Two is now caught in a pile-up over there.

[There's a clump of four cars trapped in one corner, none of them able to move. Pfft, amateurs.]

and then in a very serious, solemn tone: ]


Please don't underestimate how dangerous these stick arms can be.
kaba: (✿ I've got a hair-trigger temper)

[personal profile] kaba 2015-03-24 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Then it’s an epidemic! ]

I’m telling ya, there’s something going on in that funhouse over the—

[ He pauses, his hero senses tingling—wait, no. He hears a girl in distress and it can only be those little bastards… ]

Oi! [ He ignores that robot he’d been arguing with in favor of storming to Ai’s side.

He’s mad, all right? He’d had a really shitty day for the most part and things keep leaping out to try and kill him and these guys aren’t even going to do anything about it!! ]


Get away from the lady, you little bastard.
bozu: (And jalapeños onto skewers)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-24 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course! Overworking doesn't suit an attractive city dweller like me, after all.
I'll set aside plenty of "me time"!

And maybe "us time", when our schedules coincide.

[Yep, right back into it.
It's much easier than talking about hard work and thinking about the diner and stuff, after all.]
miyamura: (pic#5555030)

sjdlkaj no worries!

[personal profile] miyamura 2015-03-24 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ah oh no don't be awkward, anna, then miyamura's own awkwardness will become 10x so and nobody wants that. ]

Oh — no, don't apologize. [ he laughs, attempting to dispel her nervousness. ]

It was a nice hug. I think your aim was just a little off, you know?
compossible: (Rip Van Winkle)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-03-24 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you said that you can program robots to do anything--

[And she knows it to be true herself, because she's from a world even more futuristic than this one--not that she's bothered bringing that up yet for whatever reason.

Mostly because she's lazy and amused by his attempts to explain this to her.]


How do I know you're not part of the attraction?
miyamura: (pic#5778685)

[personal profile] miyamura 2015-03-24 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ whoa wait she actually did magic HOLY CRAP—

except boo there's no time to be amazed, because she's giving him directives in the next moment.

and so he follows, doing as she'd said and making a break back into the park, at her heels...!







shame he forgot to release the robot, though... ]
kaba: (✿ A hair-raising adventure)

[personal profile] kaba 2015-03-24 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ SPLUTTERING. His intentions were good and pure Yang!! ]

Bet it's a terrible kisser, anyway. [ Nervous laughter. ]
compossible: (Terminator Twosome)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-03-24 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a sight that has been seared into my brain. [It's said mostly wryly, though--she's joking, and with a smile at that.]

"Wrong and strange", huh... that's not really a surprise, I suppose, considering I shouldn't have been transported here in the first place.

[...]

Are you alright? [you look more distressed than she does at this particular point in time.]
gareki: tsunkuuyandere (012)

[personal profile] gareki 2015-03-24 04:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Ah, good. It seems like the person understood. Maybe now the bus can finally start moving from this point on.

He falls into silence at Hak's question for a few moments before he nods. ]


Yeah. They also mentioned they would try to restore it, but...

[ Who knows... He doesn't want to trust the words of these people, but they're all stuck here for the time being. On the plus side, technology is far more advanced compared to what he's used to, but not hard for him to adapt to. ]

I guess you're from a really old era?
bozu: (so whos sleeping with the dark lord)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-24 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, no no, I don't think you understand. Whether or not they eat that much doesn't matter when it comes to my cooking!
They won't be able to help themselves! They'll eat until they pop!

Metaphorically, of course.

But that's how it always goes - I could give you a sample of my cooking if I had the means, but... this park doesn't really provide much.
particularity: look at this fuckin nerd (m ✣ DWEEB)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-24 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yes, of course it doesn't...

But don't say "us time" like that... Hinata's used to it by now thankfully so he can just GLOSS ON OVER IT but still.]


...Sure. I'm usually free after classes are done for the week, and over the weekends.
compossible: (You Cannot Change The Future)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-03-24 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Well. She's curious. And curiosity is what put her in this state in the first place, but if she has the opportunity to follow someone and learn more, she's going to anyway.

She follows.]


What's so special about the steeple?
miyamura: (pic#5144316)

[personal profile] miyamura 2015-03-24 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[ at the mention of his own injury, miyamura blinks, slowly lifting a hand to his forehead. his fingers graze the cut there, fairly deep and bleeding heavily, and he stares down at the blood in mild surprise. clearly he hadn't even realized.

also, no offense taken, gareki, but you'd be surprised... though, it seems that now the light's back on and most of the horrors have disappeared, his tone returns to a lightness that doesn't seem to fit with the seriousness of his voice just moments earlier. ]


Ah — you're right. It'd be unfortunate if something else were to happen again.

[ what an understatement... ]

After you?
shacklebreaker: (hmph)

[personal profile] shacklebreaker 2015-03-24 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I can endure it for that long.

[Said wryly as he leads her inside. There's a good spot near a drinks stall, where people are more interested in watching the rollercoaster plummet by than they might be in eavesdropping on a stranger's conversation. Nor are there any robots nearby, so he stops there, and turns to her.]

You were saying...?
guidetoblivion: (♞ 021)

[personal profile] guidetoblivion 2015-03-24 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[It sounds rather accurate for the current situation though. Riku nods to himself before turning towards the other.]

You been stuck here for long already?

[After all, the statement seems to imply a certain amount of time spent in this world already.]
compossible: (Terminator Twosome)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-03-24 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's perfect, everyone will get out of their way this way.

But right. Blood. Stab wounds. Hm.]


Oh, no. It was more of a Situation than anything. [She got stabbed by guards sent by a man who wanted to use her as a babymaking machine, it was very traumatizing!!!

Not that she looks very traumatized.]


I'm not really a very violent person. [ha] I don't think I'd ever be in the middle of a battle. [well, that's more true.]
topscores: (pic#8259846)

[personal profile] topscores 2015-03-24 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[A country. You might meet him here too Elcia??

But hey, whatever people do with their free time isn't his business anyway.
]

I don't think they usually stab each other, it's more like they give each other presents.

[She's kind of odd...but he's not really in a place to call this out.]

...I guess this place is taking it the wrong way.
buildyourworld: (you are beginning to piss me off)

[personal profile] buildyourworld 2015-03-24 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Tieria is just going to stare at her, completely unimpressed. On a normal day, he would let her tell him what she knows before he corrects her or he could tell her all the codes used for A.I. psychology and why they still fail to function the same way human's emotion would but he honestly doesn't care enough to correct her today. He's annoyed enough as it is, plus she's doing a fine job assuming things about him. She can think what she wants, he's walking away before she annoys him further. ]

Come on, Haro. Let's go. [ Haro's eyes beam up at being addressed again, knowing that it means the voice ban is over now. ] Theme park! Let's play! Let's play!

No. Those rides could be traps.
hamham: to your penis. I have every right to give it a name. (I've done unspeakable things)

[personal profile] hamham 2015-03-24 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[There is still a lot of distrust in the look he's giving him, though he seems to relax at least a little. Not much, but a little.]

...'friend'? So then you must have made a similar pact...

[This is mostly said to himself, but pretty soon he's addressing Hinata again.]

Before I will listen to whatever tales you plan on weaving for me, what is the nature of your relationship with your world's Tanaka Gundam? The differences between the multiverses may be subtle in some cases, but in others they can be deadly...you have already made your first mistake by announcing the fundamental difference between yourself and my Hinata, it will not be so easy to lead me into any traps!
miyamura: (pic#5144173)

[personal profile] miyamura 2015-03-24 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ in the dark, there are sudden sounds of a rustle, but they're quickly followed by: ]

Stay there — I'm coming towards you!

[ firm and short, and within seconds kaoru will feel a hand grab for him with perhaps more strength than necessary, though a moment later it softens into a more gentle touch.

the owner of the hand speaks up a moment later, from a fairly respectable distance away, despite the hold. ]


Are you okay?
kaba: (✿ It's a sham!  Poor Aoba.)

Phase I

[personal profile] kaba 2015-03-24 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Koujaku’s seen so much shit lately that he’s pretty much just accepting the weirdness of it all. Maybe this entire situation will start making sense if he tries hard enough.

Maybe.

Not that he wouldn’t leap to the kid’s rescue, under the circumstances, but he’s all out of fight and he can’t even muster a piddling Siddown already you bastard!! to that effect. ]


Real happy for ya, kid. [ What the hell. He might’ve been a robot too for all Koujaku cares. ]
