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.

[. . . well. if help is what she needs, he reaches out to give the robot's arm a good thunk until it lets her go]

That didn't look like a hug, that looked like mountain climbing.
failures: (✎ oh crap)

[personal profile] failures 2015-03-25 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
Oh...well, that's good I guess.

[With that assurance, he finally slides his other hand off his head for the time being. He'll have to look at it and try to salvage it later, but at least it's not terrible according to this girl.]

I know we didn't sign up for...everything, but I still gotta say I didn't sign up for this. D'you know if this is a regular thing or did you just get here too?
bewrightback: (talking through things)

[Phoenix facepalms for a moment.]

Ugh... Maybe this is what Athena was telling me about? What was she saying...?

[He looks back up towards Larry.]

Larry, you use computers more than me, right? So you'll probably understand this better than me: they made you an old code!
stagewright: art by <user name=392119 site=pixiv.com> (PLAN ► i've got one!)

[personal profile] stagewright 2015-03-25 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
The one and only!

[ Since she'd know if there were any more Wrights running about...and Phoenix is pretty set on not giving her a mom. :| Rude, Daddy. ]

But...you already know that? Um, I'm kind of a little lost, here...did you hit your head?!
psycholawgy: (phoenix wright face)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-25 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no, what the heck is happening!

[ The hissing scares her even more. She tries to shake the thing off her foot but ends up kicking the old lady. She doesn't even know it, since she completely forgot about the lady. IF SHE WANTED TO BE REMEMBERED, SHE'D HAVE TALKED MORE. ]
psycholawgy: (bitches bitches bring in the bitches)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-25 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry, Mr. Wright! I'm pretty bad at keeping secrets.
failures: (✎ happy days)

[personal profile] failures 2015-03-25 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Clearly near-hair disaster experiences are way more important than near-death experiences!

Larry has no idea who this guy is but he already feels like he just gets it. It's super reassuring.

He dabs at his eyes with his sleeve and manages a small grin back.]


You have no idea how glad I am to hear that. The road to recovery's gonna be tough but at least it can be saved!

[Hair miracles aside, he realizes that this guy came from the coaster as well...]

Did you make it out okay though?
bewrightback: (london variety of sweat)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-25 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
I guess it's a mark of honesty to give up immediately...
candycoating: (058)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-25 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I guess I understood the gist of it-- it's just some severe culture shock I'm dealing with. How they got us here, what 'data' means... all of that is a mystery to me. What do they mean by that?
carptricks: (believe in the magic of rock n roll)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-03-25 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
[SHE WAS UNCONSCIOUS]

Don't freak out!





-- and don't kick anything either!

[HE HEARD THAT THUMP]

[kaito, for one, is standing stock still and waiting for his eyes to adjust to the darkness]

[ is this a sex thing. thinking it's a sex thing. ]

Come to think of it, I probably don't want to know anyway.

[ High pitched, how dare you!! Be glad he can't read your thoughts.

He can however read your lips, so the moment Hak opens his mouth, Ki-Ja face instantly falls to one of anger. Really, and to think he was even remotely happy to see this man!!
] -Do not call me that!! Hmph!! It seems you have not changed at all.

[ The smirk is relieving though, and even the albino is able to smirk a little- smug 'n all. ]

What? Did you honestly believe those lies?
failures: (✎ gears turning)

[personal profile] failures 2015-03-25 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
Why do people keep asking me that?! But no, I actually ran into Nick earlier and he mentioned you...

[He crosses his arms, thoughtfully nibbling at his snowcone as he does so.]

I honestly didn't believe him but I guess I gotta now, huh?

[[OOC: I totally meant to put this in the above tag but I worked out with Gore that Trucy's gonna be brought up in Larry's thread with Phoenix hence the prior knowledge. GJ me.]]
candycoating: (045)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-25 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
If only a humble turncoat like me could stand a chance against a threat that big... though I suppose if I could do nothing to help, I wouldn't even be here.
stagewright: art by <user name=4078866 site=pixiv.com> (WORRY ► that's bad.)

that's chill with me

[personal profile] stagewright 2015-03-25 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, you already ran into Daddy? That makes things easier! ...But, I guess people are proooobably asking 'cause you're kinda...

[ How to put this. :|a ]

...young? You're usually Daddy's age.
candycoating: (012)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-25 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
Can't say I have... it's really corn? It doesn't look like it.

[ Tenatively, he'll take a kernal off the top of the box and pop it into his mouth, giving it a thoughtful chew. ]

Doesn't taste like corn, either. But all together, not all that bad.
psycholawgy: (and every night there is music)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-25 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
But you can sure bet I'll try my hardest.

I think you should tell Widget not to talk to Mr. Edgeworth. Maybe he'll listen to you.
psycholawgy: (words words words)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-25 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
[ Widget is still lit up, so at least there's a light in the cart.

ALSO SHE SHOULD HAVE PUT EFFORT IN BEING CONSCIOUS. What a lazy butt! ]


I didn't kick any— [ oh shoot now she remembers the old lady. ] —her on purpose!
Edited 2015-03-25 04:39 (UTC)
bewrightback: (sheepish)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-25 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks, Athena. I guess this is worth a try.

[He leans a little bit.]

Hey, Widget. Please don't talk to men in funny cravats...

[Is this what my life has come to?]
dragonclaws: (pic#8679761)

[personal profile] dragonclaws 2015-03-25 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
[ oh yeah nice to see you drop it oh my god what in the world are you doing

Ki-Ja is completely throw into reality when Jae-ha presses up against him. The strength of the older man leaving him unable to fully capture his balance in this swinging deathtrap, and onto the floor he goes!
]

Ack! Wh... what are you doing!?

[ why was he so close what was going on what what WHAT

yet through all of the confusion and the bubbling in his head, a familiar sensation was starting to return to him. This... something like this had happened before. But this was pure chance, right? The scale was long gone by this point-

And as much as he would like to think harder on this subject, the person currently on top of him temporarily made him break away from his thoughts the moment a warm face was pressed against his neck.
]

S-stop this...! Get off of me!!

[ SQUIRMING UNDERNEATH HIM AND ATTEMPTING TO SHOVE AWAY gosh he was so embarrassment this was so sudden WHAT IS EVEN HAPPENING RIGHT NOW ]
carptricks: (bout rock n roll)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-03-25 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
[oh my god that poor woman]

Look, just hold completely still until the lights come back on--

[and as though on cue, the darkness fades along with the hissing noises. light streams back into the carriage, and the ferris wheel begins to move again]
sugarcoats: (047)

[personal profile] sugarcoats 2015-03-25 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Wow please, he was just embarrassed by Mercury making a snide comment.]

Ehh, no, I really don't think any of us have a choice. I don't want to be here, but I don't want to just disappear and not-- not exist, either.

candycoating: (058)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-25 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
'Done anything to me'? Not that I can tell. I've got to learn how to use it sooner or later. Let's just say I've made a deal with someone in return for learning to use it.

[ For sweets. What else? Gaius, you're a real loser sometimes. But after fumbling rather carelessly with the buttons available, it eventually lights up. For someone who has never had to deal with anything but natural light, the backlight kind of hurts his eyes. ]

Gods, you could use this thing as a lantern! But apparently, it's useful for sending messages. We should figure out how to message each other, for future's sake.
bewrightback: (please explain that one more time or 5)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-25 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Well...

Wait a second, that's my line!
candycoating: (022)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-25 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
I could swing it if we were close enough to the ground. Unfortunately, not anymore-- [ He'll look outside of the little cart as it moves upward. ] I'd become a splatter on the ground, or at least sport some very broken legs.

So-- new here?

[ That monkey tail was definitely new-- maybe a species Panne was familiar with? If there was a race of bunny people, who's to say there was no race of monkey people? ]
