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)

//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.

It could be either of those, too.

[He really doesn't understand either, but it's not totally foreign to be having some type of winter festival.]

I guess that's just one of the many, many, many things that are going to be really confusing about being here, you know?
eggcream: (②⓪)

[personal profile] eggcream 2015-03-25 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
D-d-d-don't act all buddy-buddy after what you've done! Y-you're probably just trying t-to get on my good side so you can k-k-kill me when I least expect it... [Sorry Komaeda.....]
immobileyes: (Kuroshitsuji merch???)

[personal profile] immobileyes 2015-03-25 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ Wow, Maribelle is like a book on How To Act Nobly, only one that's read out loud in a very cultured tone. And Mary listens as avidly as she would have read an actual book, despite the brief moments of perplexity. Don't gossip, but talk about yourself, but not a whole lot? The weather????

She brightens up at the mention of tea, though. ]


I could talk about that much!
troubadear: (Objection!)

Bonus

[personal profile] troubadear 2015-03-25 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Maribelle has had quite enough of all these rides- the ferris wheel in particular. But just as she's getting ready to storm out of the park, there she spots a young woman in need of help!]

[... Well, what kind of lady would she be if she just stood by?]
That is quite enough, you barbarians! [Planting herself firmly between Maya and the robots, parasol held rather aggressively in front of her.] Threatening young women in such a menacing way- how dare you! This is a highly disproportionate show of force in response to one small misdemeanor!
kicksilver: (every single holiday dick in a box)

[personal profile] kicksilver 2015-03-25 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ Gosh Yogi, don't fall for him right away. ]

I guess you could say that. Not sure if I plan on staying here for long, but I'm guessing I don't have much of a choice.
journaler: (✿ last night)

[personal profile] journaler 2015-03-25 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
[was that supposed to be a come on......

no jk leia's head is way too up in the clouds to interpret it like that; but nevertheless, elcia's smile is contagious. despite the less than ideal circumstances...]


Not at all, actually. [Honesty: she does it best.] I feel like I've probably seen enough as it is.
mermaiding: (Reclining on the bosom)

[personal profile] mermaiding 2015-03-25 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
[She chuckles and then winces herself, shaking her head. Geez, look at them...! Hot messes, both of them.]

Am not as fragile as humans, do not place me in same, eh... [The word she wants is 'category' but it's not coming to her] Group.

But, perhaps we should just lean on each other then. [He mentioned a brother though, and that gets the wheels turning in Oona's head...]
tofus: (pic#7149929)

[personal profile] tofus 2015-03-25 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
...

[Honestly, if some middle aged person or someone else just said that, Rise might just wave it off as them being a kook. A little kid though?

That's just freaky on so many levels, and she doesn't know what to say at first. Her expression reads as pretty disgusted initially, but ends up turning into one of bewilderment.]


That's not really the point here. Besides, you really shouldn't be thinking about things like that anyway.
sugarcoats: (038)

[personal profile] sugarcoats 2015-03-25 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
[He is all about shared sympathizing and talking about feelings, so he'll be nodding appreciatively at the advice, even if he doesn't really like it.]

Do they? I mean, I've had various strange things happen even before I came here but getting used to things like this... I guess nobody really wants to do that. How about you? Was it hard to um, get used to these kinds of things for you?
eggcream: (④⑦)

[personal profile] eggcream 2015-03-25 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
I can stop them myself, I don't need you to hold my hand! [Yeah he.. won't try to stop her from going, he's pretty annoyed..]
sunshied: (12)

[personal profile] sunshied 2015-03-25 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
I guess if that's what you want, it's okay.

[He still doesn't connect the dots that she's not human, though. Sorry Oona he thinks you're just weird.]

Here. [And moves closer, though he doesn't reach out to touch her yet in case she changes her mind.]
tofus: (pic#7149983)

[personal profile] tofus 2015-03-25 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Something's got my legs!

[And keeps yanking her back in the direction of the mirrors as she scrambles to grab onto anything to stop it.]
sunshrouded: (☀ may or may not be wearing a cape right)

[personal profile] sunshrouded 2015-03-25 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Then I'll eat everything in the fridge and make room!!

[DON'T SAY IT SO PROUDLY]
sunshied: (6)

[personal profile] sunshied 2015-03-25 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
No, the rest of us have to eat too.

[DON'T BE SUCH A CHILD, TENKA HONESTLY YOU'RE WORSE THAN CHUUTARO.]
sugarcoats: (030)

[personal profile] sugarcoats 2015-03-25 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
[The voice and the terribly fake laugh are too much, and he can't help but grin widely and play along. It's a good distraction for the moment.]

Youngster? I'm already an adult! These kinds of places usually are fun, but this is also really scary right now, it looks like. I like it when you can actually have fun and feel safe a lot more.
tofus: (pic#7149928)

[personal profile] tofus 2015-03-25 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
[You know, there's something about his demeanour, or maybe it's just his tone, that makes her feel a little more at ease. She's still by no means happy, but he has a point and she needs a calming presence right now.

Even if he does dress weirdly...]


This place is more messed up than it looks, huh? So what's about killer reindeer?

psycholawgy: (KAAAA MEEE HAAAAA MEEEEEE)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-25 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
He doesn't even know stuff about your badge! I'm telling the truth here!
bewrightback: (i think i'm listening)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-25 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think that you're lying at all. But how does that make sense? Don't tell me even time travel's possible here, too.
perfectstrike: (unseen)

[personal profile] perfectstrike 2015-03-25 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
It is... a bad idea to lower one's guard here, [she agrees, though it's a second or two longer for her to finally let go of the back of his suit and straighten up. Almost immediately she's looking away, rubbing one hand across her eyes and hoping he doesn't see or hear how close she is to tears. Which is to say, not close at all!! She's fine! Definitely no snot lingering on her sleeve when she pulls her hand away, either. His hair is safe.

While she's wiping at her nose, though, she's looking around, trying to find somewhere convenient to sit!! The food stalls are crowded, and though the lines for the rides have definitely... diminished... sticking near those isn't such a good idea either. There are a few benches littered around, though, and she finally spots one within view that isn't too close to any others, meaning it's less likely they'd be overheard or bothered.]


...This way, I believe.

[Though she waits for him to start walking in the direction she'd indicated first. Incredible.]

terci: (✩237;)

[personal profile] terci 2015-03-25 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Fine, whatever! I'll think of something myself!!

[Lee why can't you buy that he's definitely not Dipper...]


No I- I told you I don't know who Dipper is... young man! My name is Tyrone, and no one is suffering from the angst of youth!
tofus: (pic#7149991)

[personal profile] tofus 2015-03-25 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
[She raises an eyebrow at this woman as she's escorted away, and even looks more surprised at that glare that the robot received. Yeesh, she'd hate to be in that tin can's shoes.

Actually, she kind of looks a little familiar, but Rise can't place it.]


I know, and no amount of whining or wishing is going to fix things. It just... [She huffs, puffing her cheeks up for a second.] This whole thing just stinks!
bozu: (For 10 minutes)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-25 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Holding onto something, right...

[Which means he's going to get a grip on that seat, like it's ready to fall out from under him.
And back to looking out the window! Though... it's only momentary, since it's not long before he's looking at Peko again.]


A-ah, maybe... the search can wait until we're on the ground. I'd much rather spend this ride staring into your eyes, after all...

[Obviously an excuse, but hey. He's trying, okay.]
terci: (✩100; ɪғ I ᴅᴏɴ·ᴛ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ᴅʀᴇᴀᴍs﹖)

[personal profile] terci 2015-03-25 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Huh? Scary? [He looks around, and raises an eyebrow.]

This Christmas themed carnival is scary?
tofus: (pic#7149929)

[personal profile] tofus 2015-03-25 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[That's a voice she'd recognize anywhere!

Her head whips around just as she was approaching the Santa bot, and she practically jumps for joy in seeing him.]
Yosuke-senpai!

[Oh wow, this is great! She thought she was the only one! She beelines over toward him.] Yeah, let's get going.

[Except some of the snowmen robots that were acting like Santa's helpers are starting to follow. Oops.]
terci: (✩194; ᴍᴀᴋᴇs ᴍᴇ ᴡᴀɴɴᴀ ғʟʏ)

[personal profile] terci 2015-03-25 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[THAT SURE IS A DRAGON WITHIN TEN FEET OF THE TWO you can't just. Nonchalantly take a dragon out on a walk like this, you're going to give someone a heart attack!

But it's a good thing Dipper's more used to monsters nowadays, otherwise there would be a very girly scream coming from his mouth.

Instead he'll just... try to hide his curiosity.]


Huh? Oh, uh -- [He coughs into his hand a little, so he can speak in a lower register.]

No, I.. I was just uh.... talking..... to my pig! Yeah. [That's not weird you're weird.]
