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 ❅

//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.

[Christmas already, huh? England cannot believe he's been in Cerealia for almost two months. it feels like longer, but that's mostly because he's not working. and seeing the Christmas-themed carnival, he feels incredibly homesick.

he is not going on any rides... instead, he's just wandering alone, hands tucked into his coat pockets, thinking about the other countries, and home, and wondering what his people are up to. as he's passing the square, he hears quite a bit of commotion, so he turns his head as he's walking to see what is going on...

and runs straight into Weiss. England quickly pulls back]
A-ahh! Sorry! I didn't see you!
carptricks: (when I walk alone)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-03-23 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
[courtroom? an attorney? someone related to law enforcement of some kind? he files that information away for later]

That's the spirit! Though only "trying" sounds a little halfhearted.
bozu: (mild interest)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Well...

[He's gonna follow along behind, of course - looking around a little as he does so.]

I'm not sure we can trust any of the hot dog stands. The smells coming from them are none too friendly, after all...
Maybe funnel cakes? Those are difficult to mess up, after all - even you could make a good funnel cake!
flaredo: (Suh-weet!)

[ She hasn't checked on this ride yet, and as she's debating it, Yang pauses, not at all expecting to hear the not-so-dulcet (and oh-so-familiar) tones of a teammate. Well, then. ]

Weiiiss!!

[ Time to wave an arm over her head and save that poor snowman. ]

[personal profile] millionth 2015-03-23 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[hiro's in pretty similar shape. the beauty of messy anime hair is that it's hard to tell when it's been messed up even more!]

I am a robot, [baymax answers. hiro goes on:] Think of him as a robotic nurse. If you're hurt, he can help you feel better.
bewrightback: (ah ha ha ha!)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-23 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, she's laughing now. He can't help but laugh along as well.]

I know, right? How would they get any work done? No one would be able to hear over everyone else's shouting!
swordboning: (saber pls)

[personal profile] swordboning 2015-03-23 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Your employee, Miss "I'm Athena Cykes and I'm fine" has done her best to make me into something I'm not.

Either way, I get the feeling that if you ever start that company here, I'll end up being your people's personal cook and maid.

[Don't.....ask.]
defeets: (» there's a party in my pants)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Heh. The question manages to earn a bit of his ire and so he smiles slyly in response.]

The other way around for certain. It's a moniker that I picked up from my travels and I'm rather fond of it.

[Also the flying pirate, the green dragon.... he's pretty infamous.]
flaredo: (The minute you walked in the club)

i;

[personal profile] flaredo 2015-03-23 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
If you're already hoping for harmless, you must be new around here.

[ But Yang's still smiling readily. Hey, a ride's a ride, and if it turns out weird, she'll likely punch something, problem solved. ]

[ go meet apollo, hinata, he is the sane man you need. mostly. at least he is less ridiculous than trucy is I'M SORRY, HINATA, SHE TALKS ABOUT HER PANTIES SEMI-FREQUENTLY IT'S SORT OF SAD ]

Hm...I think so! Pearls is working at a party store, so she can get me glitter and construction paper...some of the other things might be a biiiit harder, but maybe there's a magic shop somewhere? [ SMOKE PELLETS and so on...

actually she also knows how to do the bullet trick where you seem to stop a bullet with your teeth but she is fairly certain her father would ban it if he found out ]
punchesyu: (Do you mean...?)

phase III!

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-03-23 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
Woah. [She looks so happy. And gorgeous. And bleeding? Is that a spear?]

Ummmm, miss? You uh...what do you mean 'much more interesting'? [Will he regret asking]

[ They don't look too similar...but if he cares to have Phoenix pointed out to him, she'll point to the guy in the snazzy blue suit. ]

I would have been! And, well...I'm worried about a lot of other people. But as long as we're together, everything will be all Wright.
defeets: (» have i told you lately)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[He's so ready to help her out of her jam. So he's just going to extend an arm to her, meaning for her to - well, step within reach so that he can hold her close to him.]

Hold on tight to me and-- well, I'd prefer if you didn't scream. Otherwise, I'm going to need you to trust me for a bit, love. But I promise that you'll be safe and sound on the ground in no time.

[personal profile] millionth 2015-03-23 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[hiro — does a double take. talk about deja vu, for real, even though he's pretty sure he'd remember if he ever met a girl dressed like this around san fransokyo. then again, maybe not — styles can be pretty weird.

baymax blinks, then announces:]
I will scan you now. [after a beat:] There is a laceration on your right arm. I recommend a topical antibiotic and a bandage.

[and baymax moves to approach her so he can spray that wound!!!]
verified: (no doubt in my mind)

[personal profile] verified 2015-03-23 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. [ that's actually a pretty neat trick, she thinks, watching the fog flood the path in front of them. there's something about it and naoki himself that seems familiar to her, not that she's ever met him before, but there's something about him that feels almost like what they've experienced in the dark hour. he doesn't seem to be a shadow at least.

once she confirms the direction they need to head towards, fuuka dismisses juno, hand still clutching her evoker as she turns towards the path.
]

All right. I'll try my best to keep up.

[Ow, his ears.

Belph, on the other hand, while getting increasingly unnerved, is doing his best to remain calm.]


Feel free to try and get out, if you feel like falling to your death.

[ Sometimes he wonders if she is well aware of his use of irony but simply just chooses to ignore it. Perhaps his tone isn't dry enough? There's a good amount of people that do this to him, after all. Or maybe they all just enjoy teasing him.

But anyways… ]


Mr. Wright? [ Relief is apparent in his expression. Two of the people he had been worrying about are safe. That's a good start. ]

Yeah, I wouldn't go on any more of these if someone paid me too..and some water actually sounds great right now.
defeets: (» that was a joke just a joke)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ . . . . snakes? Okay. Sure. Hold on, he'll ask more about it in a second but for now he doesn't trust this thing to get weird again. Even from the outside, the windows all darkened and it looked really weird.

So he just gives her an easy-going grin as he holds a hand out to her.]


What if I told you that I could fly?

[Since that's what his power is.... technically....]

[ At least not in considerate theme parks...!!! ]

What else would you call this? [ But the calm voice continues to be effective, even if holy hell is this uncomfortable. ] I-it's not like we can go anywhere, anyway. We were at the top....
deontology: (XIV.)

[You are a brave, determined soul, Rei... But Sousei would almost look amused, except he's generally a little too stoic for that sort of nonsense. He is though, inwardly.]

It was ghosts.

[...]

Of the murderous variety.

[Naturally.]
fierybluebird: (arms folded)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2015-03-23 04:54 am (UTC)(link)

What's wrong with them?

[ Yeah, sure she was, and she totally punched a robot's head off, but he didn't see that (maybe). Thankfully, her hair is intact, or the entire ride might have gone down in flames. Quite literally. ]

Weeell... pulling the plug on our lives, maybe?

Every day would start with a planet-wide rendition of chords of steel!

[ guys you are lucky apollo presumably isn't on this bus... ]

[personal profile] millionth 2015-03-23 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
[hiro frowns, crouching so they're closer to eye level. he's not really tall enough to have been looming over her or anything — like certain robots are, maybe — but it feels more natural, less awkward.]

Baymax, [he says, eyebrows quirking] is a personal healthcare companion. He can probably do something about those wounds.

[hiro shrugs in the direction of her throat and shoulder, though especially the latter — seems like an easier fix.]

I will scan you now.
carptricks: (When we walk)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-03-23 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
[snazzy blue suit: noted]

I think worrying is pretty natural. [he was pretty concerned about the people he didn't see on the bus himself, but like heck he was going to say that out loud]

But I like the optimism.
