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.

Welcome to CEREALIA's latest intro post For your convenience, we have compiled a post detailing what's going on right here and feel free to consult the FAQ if needed. Please leave any lingering questions in the OOC post, and we'll answer them as soon as we can. OVERFLOW IS HERE!!!


defeets: (» talk piratey to me)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
[He pauses for a second, aside from expertly flinging more knives in the direction of the Santa bots, the weapons impaling themselves in each of their faces with keen marksmanship.

Then, he's quick to use the blade in his hand to cut her free of her restraints. Easily:]


Someone as beautiful as yourself should only be free. [Then he's careful to twist the blade in his hands, offering the hilt of the blade to her so she can grasp it safely.] You probably won't have to use this if I have anything to say about it, but keep it close just in case. I expect to have it back, though.

[It's something precious to him - from his time in that little old port town.

Then he's right back to standing and his efforts against the Santa robots are renewed. He's jumping right off the roller coaster cart, so graceful that it seems like he's flying, and then making quick work of making junk piles out of each robot.]
perfectstrike: (500% done)

[personal profile] perfectstrike 2015-03-23 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
...Yes.

[She doesn't know the circumstances of Gundam's death, just that he didn't survive to the "end." Victim?? Murderer?? It's all the same to her, since she really has no room to judge.]

Though I doubt this is an afterlife. You received the presentation after exiting the virtual reality, yes?

[She means ViViD -- she sure as hell isn't going to be the one to explain that the whole everything was a VR, that's a protag's job.]
bozu: (look at his cute face)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
A-ah, well, y-you certainly don't beat around the bush, do you?

[Though he certainly wishes she did; he's gonna fiddle with his handkerchief a bit, trying not to make eye contact...]

Er... p-perhaps you should see if the others are around? I mean, if we are, certainly they are too!

Wouldn't you rather talk about this sort of thing with them?
emotive: (And you're going home satisfied)

1/2

[personal profile] emotive 2015-03-23 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
[SUDDEN YELLING IN HER HEAD WAIT WHAT WAS HE ASKING.]
swordboning: (pic#8713748)

[personal profile] swordboning 2015-03-23 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Better tasting, at least. Have you ever heard of buckeyes?

[Those seem to be a favorite. Well, at this point, he'll have to ask Rin what her favorites are.]
hamham: End of story. (Never go drinking with anime club.)

[personal profile] hamham 2015-03-23 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Maga-Z allows this! And boy does he look proud for having found the blond when Gundam walks up, looking all victorious and shit.

Gundam, meanwhile, calms down a little at least. Yes, he did lose something, thank you for finding him and keeping him safe. Though after that visible sigh of relief he straightens up a little once again. Also wow nerdlord really? Really?]


I would hardly consider it losing him. The Devas are free to wander where they please.

[But please don't do that again Devas. He will let you enjoy the company of his classmates but please just let him take you to them instead????? You're going to give him a heart attack.]
candycoating: (003)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-23 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
I'll do what I can. The same to you, too. It looks like we'll have to make some new friends here if we want to get anywhere, while we're at it...

[ But everyone here is so... strange. Certainly in the same situation, though, so he's got to feel bad for them. ]
defeets: (» have i told you lately)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
['Well, I'm a pirate' is what he wants to say.... but that's probably something that shouldn't be made obvious conversation when the context isn't known.]

Enough. Where I'm from has endured rather turbulent times.

But I'm Jae-ha, the soaring green beast. [alright, ego, cool it] And your name?
psycholawgy: (butts!!!)

snacks

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-23 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ Sure, she could just ask her best friend to buy some snacks for the both of them, but if she continuously asked Simon Blackquill for favours each time she needs one, then she'd run out! So she took it upon herself to buy some nachos, and cotton candy. And some soda. They're a good combination, okay?

But when a certain someone ends up buying the last stock of sugar—or rather—cotton candy they have... someone gets upset. ]


Hey, what's the big idea?!
masakados: (which is the truth?)

b

[personal profile] masakados 2015-03-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Hard to say if it's lucky or not Maribelle's been herded in with this guy-- given how unusual he looks. But Naoki honestly seems more interested in watching the view as the ferris wheel starts going up (yesssss heights) than speaking, until she speaks up.

'Common folk', huh... He smiles over at her.]


To me it doesn't feel uncommon, but I've been in a ferris wheel a few times... This's your first time in one?
perfectstrike: (still)

[personal profile] perfectstrike 2015-03-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
It is.

[Said simply! Peko's still pretty annoyed about all that, but as long as she can find her young master in the end, it'll be worth it.]

Do you know how to fight?

[Ran...dom...]
emotive: (And fly through life without a meaning)

[personal profile] emotive 2015-03-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[NO, she's keeping her cool, seriously she is!! Hand kissing, NBD!!]

I-I think we're from completely different places! My country's called Vietnam, but then I found myself here instead so now it's been a month or two since I arrived!
allfortheclan: (♊ pretty tormented demon)

[personal profile] allfortheclan 2015-03-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ He sees the gesture at his collar and can guess what is passing through Soramaru's mind. But when Soramaru looks back at him, for a moment he looks so much like Tenka it makes Shirasu's breath hitch. Amazing that after all they'd gone through, the Kumou brothers could still have so much strength in them.

Shirasu lowers his hands, and shakes his head. ]


It was too dark for even me to see. It was strong, though. [ He takes a labored step toward Soramaru. The attacker hadn't broken anything, and the leg will be fine with just a little time, but at the moment he can't put much weight on it. ]

Are you hurt?
swordboning: (pic#8713735)

[personal profile] swordboning 2015-03-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
...so what....you're lawyer number three now? That seems be to a popular job around here.
impheired: stop autocorrecting all my fucks into ducks. you're making all my strong worded texts look harmless and adorable. (angry ♚ seriously iphone.)

[personal profile] impheired 2015-03-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Well at least she made an attempt to stave off the swords. Kuzuryuu just kind of ducked and closed his eye because that whole part was just way too familiar for comfort. Robots with swords. No.]

Well they sure as hell weren't trying to add years onto our lives with that stunt, now were they? [WHO DOES SHIT LIKE THIS? EVEN THAT BASTARD MONOKUMA LEFT THE ROLLERCOASTER ALONE.] I don't know about you, but that is the first and last ride I'm going on here.

littlestbaskerville: i'm too young for a tattoo? blasphemy! (✿ we will be who we are.)

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2015-03-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
There are some yummy things around. They have cakepops at one stand.

[Lily may or may not have already been around the stands.]
niceguypose: (fearing death)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-03-23 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Such fervor!! It's admirable. Rock Lee is tugged down by this man and looks him nervously in the eye.]

I... ah, I am speaking truthfully! Peko-san... I do not know her exact whereabouts, but I believe I saw her elsewhere in the park! I promised if I found a person like you... that I would call for her right away!
aerialassault: (neutral -- cutting to the chase)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-03-23 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Good. Do that.

[His words were surprisingly firm-- and as if using that as a cue, he unceremoniously dumped everything in his hands into the nearest waste basket.

And gave it an extra shove deeper into the wire container. For emphasis.]


Dunno what kinda hint that those guys are tryin' ta give us, [He muttered, now giving the waste basket a solid kick just for the sake of it.] Things like that are personal. It ain't right to make jokes like that!
psycholawgy: (bah la la la la)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-23 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ she's at least used to weird looking robots... and guns aren't scary. swords are! ]

Nah, I'm pretty sure it is!
defeets: (» talk to the left cause you ain't right)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
[She's so cute.... but also very afraid so he saves his flirting for the time being to instead crane his neck to look back down toward the ground. Hm, right.]

Well, how do you think I got up here in the first place, darling?

[Definitely no strings or wires that are holding him up, he's legitimately just clinging onto the snowflake and otherwise in the open air. So he just shakes his head faintly as he moves to get right-side up again, mostly by sitting on the edge of the opening.]

I'm here to save you.
littlestbaskerville: ablublublu you're a meanie!! (✿ i'm just looking for the sky that i -)

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2015-03-23 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
[She's just easily riled up when being pushed. She isn't used to strangers being mean right off the bat to her.

Handing him the new hotdog she huffs at him.]
niceguypose: (righteous)

snacks

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-03-23 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
[A bushy-browed young man is also overlooking the snacks, trying to do so with an appraising eye.]

Hmmm...! There is quite the selection!
spiritpearls: (NEUTRAL ► look)

[personal profile] spiritpearls 2015-03-23 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Mr Nick would have fainted from all that... [ And yes, hopefully the ride touches the ground sooner rather than later.

The moment it does, Pearl will hurry off and drag Trucy with her. BEFORE THE VANISHING SNAKES CAN GET THEM ]
shacklebreaker: (delicious feather omnom)

[personal profile] shacklebreaker 2015-03-23 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Hardly popular with our benign rulers, I'd say... My services as a lawyer have not been requested here.
emotive: (There's no place I'd rather be)

[personal profile] emotive 2015-03-23 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Some people have been here for a few months already. I haven't been here that long though.
