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 ❅

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.

D-Don't bully me!

[She is not handling the commands well...and yet she is getting another hotdog.]

[That...gets a glance over her shoulder at what he indicates. And then she looks back down at her dress. Well, the blood's starting to dry now that there's no steady flow from any injuries, but nonetheless, it's pretty obvious that it's all from her.]

All of it, I'd assume.

[At least she's nonchalant about it.]

I hope you don't expect me to clean it up. Give a girl a break.

[He'd been trying to get to his feet when suddenly he's knocked off balance again by a child flying into him and wrapping their arms around him. At first he thinks it's Chuutaro but the voice was unfamiliar as was pretty much everything else.]

Chuu- ah, I'm sorry - are you lost?

[And how did she know his name...? He would get to that part eventually but for now he was more concerned for her safety.]

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2015-03-23 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
G-Good!

[Why did she ever come in here? Is this how she dies trapped in a maze forever? Well, not that it would kill her easily but she would be trapped her forever.]

Okay, I'll let you lead the way out.

[She pauses.]

Who are you?

[Whoa whoa whoa suddenly pushy princess. Elcia's not used to people invading her personal space with good intentions, and she very nearly has a kneejerk reaction to try to punch whoever it is in the face--

But thankfully for the both of them, that's restrained, and instead she allows Natalia to tug her over to the bench.]


...Ah.

[Well, the problem here is clearly--]

It's mostly dry now, I think, so it won't be making more of a mess. Don't worry about it.

The island.

[She can appreciate not wanting to talk about what happened, but she needs to know. For her own selfish reasons, more than anything, she has to know if he also experienced execution.]

What do you remember from it?

[Though with all the SHSL Memory Loss going on with these kids, she wouldn't even be that surprised if he said he had forgotten. He'd recognized her, though, which is a start.]

getting on the bus;

[hiro should be paying more attention to the crowd around him, but — for one thing, he's short enough that he mostly just sees a lot of backs and shoulders, and for another it's a lot to take in. the end of the world? it's a wild enough story as it is, but since hiro's been doing the superhero thing it sounds even more nuts. okay, sure, there's a lot more to the world — and the universe — than just san fransokyo, but you'd think he would've heard something about it, maybe? run into any aliens if they really exist? the world can't just be gone, along with everyone else in it...can it?]

Hiro, your heart rate is: elevated.

[hiro mutters a "yeah, yeah," waving absently at baymax, but it's the next thing baymax says that makes him stop in his tracks:]

Tadashi is here.

Really? You sort of look like you know.

[ But if this guy looks embarrassed to even look at it, it's clearly not something Gaius should be touching. Checking it out with a renewed 'try looking at it from a different angle' approach, he quickly figures out the clue that the shape of the tool was hinting at. Disgusted, he puts the non-candy abomination back in the box. He won't be taking it with him. ]

Nevermind! I'm not touching that thing again.
fortheprincess: (and it's killing me when you're away)

[personal profile] fortheprincess 2015-03-23 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
"Temporarily inconvenienced," huh...

[ He sees that seriousness, and it makes him frown a little deeper. This had better be temporary, because he's got a home to return to and a kingdom to save. Plus a bunch of doofuses to look after, and a Princess to protect.

...Speaking of the Princess... ]


Do you know where any of the others are?

[ He doesn't like the idea of them being stuck in this place, too; but it'll give him reassurance that they're all okay and alive. Behind Jae-ha, Hak delivers a ferocious punch of his own, sending the Santa bot flying. ]
sugarcoats: (081)

[personal profile] sugarcoats 2015-03-23 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, I'm glad you don't think so!

Lily is a very nice name, and I'm so glad to meet you!

[At the mention of the fun house, he makes a face and shakes his head from side to side.]

It's not very fun at all. There were a lot of scary things trying to hurt me, so I don't think it's meant to be a good time for anyone in there.
compossible: (Terminator Twosome)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-03-23 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
And furthermore, you can't just pluck people out of their timelines to shove them into strange--

[Oh.

Her monologue has been interrupted.

Elcia blinks, tilting her head and turning away from the entirely unimpressed singing reindeer, glancing at Leia thoughtfully. Hurt...?]


I'm fine.

[A pause. She glances down at her blood-covered dress. ...Ah.]

... Really, I'm not hurt. At the risk of sounding really cliche, it's not what it looks like.

Nice try, but it doesn't smell like peppermint. This is something weird, isn't it?

[ But he doesn't really need the condom, though, so he'll pass it over to Mercury. If he can make use out of a weird scented bag, all the more power to him. ]
scaryintuition: (what)

Pre-Phase

[Hide is stepping off the bus and getting a look around when he becomes an eye witness to a pink haired girl's assault on the Snowtron 5000. He winces after getting a good look at the size of the dent she leaves behind. Self preservation would say not to bug a girl that strong, but Hide's never been good at listening to that instinct.]

What did that robot ever do to you?
littlestbaskerville: time to kick his butt out of it!! (✿ love‚ pull your sore ribs in.)

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2015-03-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Tenka was sad when he left, so she is more than happy this person is back! Besides she liked Soramaru too...he was nice to her. Plus there was the whole Tenka kind of adopted her thing.

Lily looks at him with big blue eyes before she nods her head.]


K-Kinda...do you not remember me, it's me, Lily!
impheired: makes random noises all of the time and repeatedly sings phrases like “I hate the world” and “what the fuck am i doing” (talk ♚ i’m one of those people who)

[personal profile] impheired 2015-03-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Look he just wants the robot to back off a little. He's not really thinking about how little sense it makes to threaten a robot with a blade. which is actually a very short sword, not a knife, Katar herped the derp super hard here.]

I'm not stupid! I...know that. [At least he has the decency to sound at least slightly sheepish because even he knows that's a really flimsy excuse.] Anyway, I wasn't actually gonna try and stab it.

[He sheathes the ko-wakizashi again with a click before it disappears back inside his suit. Apparently there's no "thank you" to go with that. What a winner of a young master Peko has.]
candycoating: (031)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
... oh? You've got my attention. What do you mean, better treats?

[ If the only good thing he'll get out of this weird festival is candy, that's good enough for him. ]
bozu: (urban sexy and delicious)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Magician Extraordinaire, hmm? That's absolutely adorable!

[A small pause -]

Of course, I mean that sincerely - someone who's proud enough of their work to call themselves an "Extraordinaire", plus the outfit to match... it's just too cute to handle!

I am Hanamura Teruteru, Super High School Level Coo-[ahem]-Chef.
And I'd be happy to let you taste anything I make, Miss Trucy! After all, everything I make has a 100% discount for cute girls, mmhmhm!

[He's going to leave it at that, as if she's supposed to magically know what his title means. At least it sounds fancy.]
littlestbaskerville: YEAHHHH I'M THE KING OF THE HILL (✿ take me one last time to the land -)

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2015-03-23 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you.

[Not used to that compliment still...she might be blushing a little.]

Eh?! This place is being weird again!

[She stomps her foot about that.]
unevoke: (pic#8039744)

i! ish.

[personal profile] unevoke 2015-03-23 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Carnivals aren't really his thing. Too many people, too many bright lights, too many possibilities of things that could have been.

But Minato seems to like festivities well enough and Mitsuru's always on the watch-out for new information about Cerelia and Ceres, and so Shinji finds himself inside the holiday-themed amusement park regardless, his worn coat and general threatening atmosphere completely at odds with the merry music and tinkling lights. Maybe he ought to go back home, he thinks after less than five minutes inside, but that's when he catches sight of a familiar uniform and his eyes widen. He's only seen her a few times, and interacted with her less, but there's no mistaking that short haircut.]


—Yamagishi?

[ lost in the funhouse as well, once the light goes out, fuuka brings out her persona. scanning her surroundings, juno leads her over to a boy lying on the ground before disappearing and she immediately heads over to him, kneeling next to him. ]

Hello? Can you hear me?

[ fuuka has never been in battle before, but she's seriously wishing she had some healing abilities right about now. ]

Augh-- How do you disable it? Is it going to go off?

[ He's now eying the thing with complete uncertainty. He doesn't want to die after being pulled to god knows where for god knows what. ]
spiritpearls: (THUMB BITE ► unsure)

[personal profile] spiritpearls 2015-03-23 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not in pain, maybe just traumatized... [ She is bleeding from a couple of cuts, but she's too shocked to really feel the sting. ]

It really was! I didn't know big roller coasters would be so... violent! They should have had a warning sign up.

[ She's sticking to kiddie rides forever now, holy crap. ]

Hmph... Then as a prosecutor, I am beholden to untangle their motives, remote though they may seem.

[Even if he's not a prosecutor here, that doesn't mean he'll turn his back on wrongs committed. Especially if attempted killings are involved.]

I'm giving you a solution.

[Bullying her? Since when is expecting compensation for food someone made you drop bullying? He ignores the little voice in his head telling him he wouldn't be acting like this if he wasn't so hungry.]
candycoating: (022)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-23 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I bet there's probably better stuff around, though. It's a festival, right? That means there's even better festival food out there.

[ Cotton candy is a hard act to top, though. He could go for something fried or covered in chocolate-- or both. ]
