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!!!

[personal profile] stagewright 2015-03-23 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
You can just call me Trucy, too! [ She's always pretty perky...it comes with being an Ace Attorney assistant, usually. ] I feel like I should repay you for this somehow...I know! I'll do a magic trick for you sometime, if you ever need cheering up!

[ trucy you would do that for free. ]
defeets: (» so many hot guys)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I won't judge. Whatever suits you, I guess. Good luck trying to take one of these guys home though.

[Jae-ha is still trying to slaughter all of them - they're all hunks of junk anyway, he's not feeling guilty about it at all.]
stagewright: art by <user name=3558788 site=pixiv.com> (LEAN ► white on blue.)

[personal profile] stagewright 2015-03-23 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
Well, do you want some company looking for a booth that sells some?

[ It might be a pointless journey but surely this girl wouldn't mind company on said journey! ]

I'm Trucy Wright, by the way!
bozu: (90% shocked or angry)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh shit - wait, no, it's just a cute hamster being cute in his hair.

He's gonna wait for a moment to make sure Jum-P's not actually doing anything bad, before letting out the HUFFIEST HUFF.]


Alright - eat that, and throw it up again! But I'm going to go get you something that you'll actually be able to stomach, so wait here!

Starving and then expecting a damn hot dog to actually go down... Seriously...

[Which means yes, he's stomping away with Jum-P still in his hair. The hamster's free to leave of course, but he's not making any motion to stop for him.]
troubadear: (Where were you on the 14th of April?)

[personal profile] troubadear 2015-03-23 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, Proper and Polite, two of her favourite things! What an elegant seeming woman, Maribelle instinctively approves and moves closer to Kaoru.

This is no doubt the best judgement she will make during her time in Cerealia.]


I am starting to get that impression. Honestly, if they are so keen on aiding us then you would assume they would act in a more polite manner.
eggcream: (①④ Her!)

[personal profile] eggcream 2015-03-23 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
Magic trick? Are you some kind of magician or something? [Takin' another bite of his cotton candy casually. He looks mildly interested as well. Magic tricks aren't really his thing, but it's not something he dislikes either.]
projections: most of these icons are not shareable (fate/cooking)

phase ii

[personal profile] projections 2015-03-23 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I saw something strange around here before. Where did it go?

[Shirou looks around and stares at the mirrors too. Man, that thing looked scary.]
fortheprincess: (if you sexy then flaunt it)

[personal profile] fortheprincess 2015-03-23 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
[ Pretty enough to be a girl, sure. Hak raises an eyebrow when Vietnam looks like she's about to stick that bandage on his face. Stubborn she is; but him, also, for refusing help for so long. ]

I told you I'm fine. Anyway, don't go in there. It's dangerous.

[ He waves at her again before he starts to walk off. RUDE, HE IS. But really, he just doesn't want to keep on going in circles like this. ]
defeets: (» 60% of the time it works every time)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
[That was such a literal answer.

And then Jae-ha blinks before opening his coat without much concern and well.]


I have a few.

Do you need one?
stagewright: art by <user name=rie-doodles site=tumblr.com> (CHAT ► casual schoolwear.)

[personal profile] stagewright 2015-03-23 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
I am! Magician Extraordinaire! I'm the head of the talent branch at the Wright Anything Agency, even.

[ which means NOTHING to anyone but people from her world but she will happily keep saying it because she is damn proud of the agency. ]

Buuuuut I'm also a normal student by daylight! You look like you're about my age - are you going to go to the school? I guess that's an option, apparently.
deontology: (XLIX.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-03-23 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Magic, magic, magic. Everything about the people here is so magical. If Sousei was a bit more competent at his family's entire everything, maybe his ~onmyouji senses~ would be tingling.

Then again, watching Jae-ha kick up whirlwinds is enough of a clue to make it pretty obvious he's not just a normal human, even if it mattered in this instance (which it does not). The curiosity gets an arched eyebrow, but after a moment, he responds anyway.]


... I am the captain of a squad devoted to protecting my country in my world. Here, that has little bearing on the situation.

[He doesn't really expect anyone to treat him any differently based on what he was back home, but that's just...Sousei being Sousei.]

I choose to protect those who need protection here because it is the right thing to do.
defeets: (»  gather round children)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Definitely a little strange. Then he's admittedly curious, so....]

What makes you say that?

[They still haven't found the exit, they might as well get to know each other.]
troubadear: (Disgusted noise)

[personal profile] troubadear 2015-03-23 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
[I'm honestly not sure how the TDM fits into anything but vague familiarity?? Maybe???]

[No matter the case, that still earns a glare from Maribelle.]
No, I have never seen one of these in Ylisse. We also do not have gentlemen that would laugh at a woman of breeding so rudely.
fierybluebird: (Throw your head back and laugh)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2015-03-23 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
[LAUGHS AGAIN.]

No no, it's for the best, I'm sure they'd bother my housemates.
troubadear: (Genteel not gentle.)

[personal profile] troubadear 2015-03-23 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Then I suppose I shan't simply put it down to cultural differences after all.
fortheprincess: (i don't wanna be needing your love)

[personal profile] fortheprincess 2015-03-23 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
[ All this talk about infections and injuries...seriously, he's fine! It's all so troublesome that it makes him sigh.

But then when she mentions those names... Yoon. Shin-ah. Ki-ja. Hak pauses and looks her in the eye.

He almost glares at her, protective instincts flaring. His grip on his spear tightens as he frowns at her. ]


How do you know them?
hoasen: (EXPIRED MILK?!)

[personal profile] hoasen 2015-03-23 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Sorry Yoon, one day you will be manly. And wow does he think he can stop her just like that? /emote of Rei Ryugazaki laughing.

He does get some reprieve for his warning.]


It's dangerous in there? What happened--...ah, wait!

[Noticing that he's walking off, she follows after because UH IF IT'S DANGEROUS IN THERE, could it be he's suffering worse?]
defeets: (» what're you doing tonight)

[personal profile] defeets 2015-03-23 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
[That much manages to get Jae-ha to laugh even as they're approaching the ground again. Instead of settling them on the ground, he instead aims to land on one of the rooftops of the buildings. Gently, he puts her back onto her feet.]

I'm glad. I'm not sure what was happening in there but I didn't trust it for a second. As long as you're safe, that's my primary concern.
troubadear: (A woman of my breeding.)

[personal profile] troubadear 2015-03-23 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
I feel as though any tea provided at a location such as this would be incredibly substandard, but I suppose there isn't any harm...

[The journey is more important than the destination anyway!]

My name is Maribelle. A pleasure, I'm sure.
hoasen: (waves)

[personal profile] hoasen 2015-03-23 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Sorry, Jae-ha, she's just a very literally person...

And DAMN THAT'S TOO FORWARD? Thankfully her initial UGHHH was quickly interrupted when she saw that he was armed to the teeth. Like she was dreaming she was right now.]


Impressive! But ah, yes, if you are willing to lend me one! I promise I will not lose it. [How.]
kicksilver: (oh my dick in a box girl)

[personal profile] kicksilver 2015-03-23 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ He nods as he casually points a finger at him. ]

You definitely did say that out loud, Mr. Villain.
fortheprincess: (i need your lovin' lovin')

[personal profile] fortheprincess 2015-03-23 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ Just taking his time sliding down this thing and then, whoa, he's flying.

...Except he is not flying and those are Jae-ha's hands touching him and carrying him...princess style.... ]


Oi! Put me down!
bozu: (and i am so glad i did)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
Of course - I'll keep my eyes peeled!

[And it finally starts moving, yaaay - which means it's just a bit higher than the crowds, at the moment.
He does take a moment to look out at everything, maybe hoping to spot a food stall worth checking...]


... Ahh, even from here the food still looks terrible.
Now that's just disappointing!
hoasen: (cloudless)

[personal profile] hoasen 2015-03-23 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Head shake!] At first we did consider that, but you will find that there is always something beneath this lighthearted surface. You best be careful.
emotive: (Weeds will grow)

[personal profile] emotive 2015-03-23 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
[She's distracted enough by their conversation and by glancing at the mirrors to see if the creatures are reappearing that she forgets that they're holding hands... Good job Ai... The noises, haunting as they are, aren't enough to deter her.]

Well, for one thing, I doubt any of us expected to be in a situation like this. We're all out of our element one way or another.

But when I think about it, I realized that while I have people I may miss and want to see... I don't think there's anything I could call "precious." There are things I need to do, but there's nothing else...

[A beat.]

That's strange isn't it?
