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.

I... don't feel like talking about it.

Speaking of which, there are certainly better presents than a bunch of bananas, too, you know! I'd be pretty peeved if that's all I got as well.
verified: (& there's no one)

[ hey, if it was a haunted house, she'd be pretty cool with it. but after her experience on the ferris wheel, she doesn't think she should take her chances with this one.

she makes a quick glance around them, before edging a little closer to rise, voice lowered.
]

Sorry. [ for making her see it. ] But, um, maybe we should get out of here? I have a feeling something strange might happen...
verified: that we met (i've known it from the moment)

[ bless you, jude. she breathes a quiet sigh of relief, following close behind him. ]

Thank you, I'm sorry for the trouble.

[ it's hard not to notice the thing following them, especially with the howling. she jumps a little, gripping her evoker beneath her shirt. ]

I-I don't think that's part of the attraction, right?

You're reading and talking about comic books.

Think about that for a second, Mr. Natural Charm.

Mr. Wright, I don't think he wants to be useful or helpful right now.

Nothing? Ya sure were making something out of it just a second ago.

To whom do I owe my heartfelt gratitude?

[ OH GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING ]

What's the big idea, you doofus?!

[ She sure can't see whom she's talking to, but she knows it's a doofus, anyway. She makes an attempt to grab at that leg whenever possible and flip and toss them onto the floor, herself included, as she locks her legs on the other person's body. Words are hard right now but she's trying to give the other a headlock. ]

[ She shakes her head in response. ]

No, I've been here for a month!

[ But now that she's totally happy that someone new is here, her surprised expression changes into an uncontrollable smile. ]

I can't believe this! I'm so glad there are more people now!

[personal profile] dishonorstudent 2015-03-25 10:38 am (UTC)(link)
Then why did you even buy it? Did the robots hold ya at gunpoint?

[ She is kind of staring at the corndog, though. Dare we say, even... preying on it? ]

[ Ryuko would certainly advise against it, but she'll tease a bit before she actually does. ]

Heh. Not one for thrill and excitement, are ya?

[Those words were a tad harsh in Cliff's opinion, but not entirely out of the ordinary given what little he understood about the young man. Another would have asked the same question with far more force and emotion-- and the responce could have been equally impulsive for them to still drop the subject for the time being.

Cliff had a hunch that Tieria wouldn't accept anything that wasn't rational and level headed.

He sighed. This was not a conversation he wanted to have.]


I can't speak for anyone but myself in this regard, Tieria, but I'm willing to believe that these guys won't immediately endanger our lives or try to kill us from the outset. Didn't you listen to the power point? We're soldiers to them. No one wastes their cannon fodder on dumb things like this.

....besides. This is hardly the weirdest thing I've been through this week, and the rides haven't really hurt anyone. Frankly, I'm just gonna roll along with things until someone gives me a reason otherwise.
punchesyu: (yay he has a persona now)

oh gosh they're not gunna fall don't you worry your little socks

[His arcana card floats down in front of his face, and he can't break it in here the way he usually does so it sits spinning on one edge in his free hand as he hesitates. She's crying, and he knows if he can get them out of here she might stop crying. But he doesn't want to scare her even farther.]

It's okay, look, I know someone who can open up the ceiling and let us out. [He tries saying in the calmest voice he can muster.]

[personal profile] dishonorstudent 2015-03-25 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Cut the snake by its head, huh? Unfortunately for you, the geeks who made all these rotten things are a little hard to track down.

[ And by little she means pretty much impossible. ]
kicksilver: (009)

[personal profile] kicksilver 2015-03-25 12:02 pm (UTC)(link)
A scare tactic, huh? I like that idea.

What are they scaring us for?
psycholawgy: (that's dr. blackjack not simon!!!)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-25 12:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She does exactly that, but she's still freaked out. ]

...

That wasn't weird, right?

kicksilver: (005)

[personal profile] kicksilver 2015-03-25 12:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I think if you would have kept both of those things, it'd guarantee that you won't disappear at all.

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-03-25 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't worry!!

[As the robot reaches for him, Rock Lee reaches out his own arms, grabs onto the robot's hands, and... starts grappling with it.]

This is my battle now!
niceguypose: (proud nice guy pose)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-03-25 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Youth!

[That's the only answer that Lee gives, very chipperly, as he lands on the ground and flashes him a thumbs up.]
bewrightback: (please go on)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-25 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[He frowns and gives a soft nod. He doesn't turn his eyes away from the ride, with a tense look.]

Yeah... My daughter.

[Everything will be alright. I just know it. It's Trucy. I just can't help but worry anyway.]
bewrightback: (chibi suspicions)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-25 12:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[He rubs at his head as he pulls himself to his feet and blinks in confusion as that little voice trying to give him advice finally clicks in. He turns to face her with a look of stunned disbelief.]

Maya... No way. You're here too? That is really you, right? [He steps closer, trying to ensure she's not some weird mirror trick.]
bewrightback: (a very special presentation...)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-25 12:15 pm (UTC)(link)
My guess would be 'no one'.

I'm Phoenix Wright, attorney at law. [He presents his badge.] Nice to meet you, Mr. Emiya. I fully agree on being cautious.
niceguypose: (intent)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-03-25 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rock Lee quickly starts glancing around.]

Ah! That's her voice! Where could you be, Mabel-chan?!
kicksilver: (wow)

[personal profile] kicksilver 2015-03-25 12:43 pm (UTC)(link)
A toy balloon.

[ And hey, he's telling the truth. ]
kicksilver: (012)

Nope, never had a nickname in my life. Why don't you come up with something, and we'll see?

Naoki Kashima.

[And he has just one small issue with this, just the one--] Mind telling me why, exactly, that's plan B? I mean, I'm not gonna do it, but now I wanna know what you've got going through your head.

[Honestly this boy isn't bad news he's just a disaster...]
