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 ❅
YOU HAVE ARRIVED AT THE SANTASTICAL FOREST OF CHRISTMAS WONDERS ❅
PLEASE ENJOY ALL THE RIDES CEO JULIUS VINCERE HAS HAND-PICKED FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT ❅
WE WISH TO BRING YOU MERRY FEELINGS FOR THE HOLIDAY ❅
COME GIVE SNOWTRON 5000 A HUG ❅
WHAT? YOU DON'T WANT ONE ❅
BUT I WAS PROGRAMMED TO CONVEY HUGGING AS LOVE THROUGH AFFECTION ❅
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.

[ huehuehuehue....... That. Happens quite often to him, so... He says nothing as she looks for a bandage again, his spear beside him as he ponders on Yona's whereabouts. ]

It would prove that they were wrong about everyone else from home being gone, at least. [ A beat. ] ...I'm responsible for ensuring her safety.

[ He says it somberly, and there's concern in his eyes now. If she's at home...then no matter what, he needs to get back as soon as he can. He needs to be there for her. ]

[personal profile] dimidiampura 2015-03-23 09:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ To what she might perceive as this not being who he was, in reality it was just the person he'd become and the very reason why the last time he'd seen Touka that she'd hit him pretty good. He'd never become that unsure, extremely shy guy he'd been when he first joined Anteiku again, but he'd be lying if he said he didn't miss those days spent with them and where he felt happy.

Deep down he knows from her tone that she speaks to him with that she wanted more than what he'd said before this. Kaneki was also more than a little aware that the way this was going that she'd give him another beating if he didn't answer her properly; it was likely a matter of when her patience gave out on her, really. ]


I'm sorry. I probably can't stop making this face you don't like, but i'll try.

[ Kaneki's voice softens a touch, lips quirking up into a smile as he looked up to meet her gaze. He means what he said, though whether she believes that or not was completely up to her. ]

At least it doesn't seem like it's coming back right now so I think we're safe.

[Hide is carefully adding another chocolate bar to the stack of food and treats in his arms. Once it is perfectly balanced on top he continues on his way to the rows of tables set out conveniently across from the food vendors. He makes three steps progress when the sound of his name grabs his attention, pulling him to a halt right in the middle of a bunch of people trying to get around him. So you can imagine what happens next...

Food flies everywhere as people bustling by knock into Hide from multiple sides, causing him to lose his grip. He watches in mounting horror as all that lovely food splatters on the ground before him. His stomach sinks even as that incessant hunger continues to pull at him. With the people who bumped into him long gone all he can do is look up at the person who had caused his distraction.]


Touka-chan...[His surprise and delight to see her is deafened by the sudden onslaught of irritation. What the hell had she been thinking calling to him like that? Couldn't she tell that he needed to eat?]

You're treating me!

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-03-23 09:55 am (UTC)(link)
[There were things that made a lot of sense. Like merry-go-rounds when you wanted to seem cute and harmless. Or roller coasters because they were fast.

And there were other things, like going into a funhouse where all kinds of terrible things could happen (and did happen in the horror movies she'd been tricked into watching before) that made no sense at all. She almost immediately stops the moment she sees a giant man walking out and dripping blood.]


Um. You should probably get that looked at. [She doesn't have the habit of carrying bandages with her. Just salt. And occasionally a lemon.]

[ He sits up, but doesn't stand up completely. Instead he just looks up at her while trying to think of a way to save face. ]

Hahah... I know that! I barely even felt it. I just-- I just wanted to sit down a little, that's all. [ Smooth, Jaune. ] I'm fine!

Are you okay? [ He asks on impulse, trying to deflect her impression of him. ]

[personal profile] yooknowit 2015-03-23 10:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yoon didn't bother entering or joining any of the attractions yet. He's still busy surveying the surroundings, considering that he's heard that new arrivals have been successfully brought in. He's hoping to see a familiar face again...

His wish is shortly granted after catching sight of Hak exiting. He can recognize the young man's stature right away despite the distance. Without wasting a second more, he runs towards the tall figure as he calls out frantically among the crowd— ]


Thunder Beast! Hey...! Wait!!
yooknowit: (IDIOT DRAGONS)

[personal profile] yooknowit 2015-03-23 10:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... OH GODS. Thankfully, Yoon is able to spot the flying robot right away! A split second later, he would've been hit right at the side of his head. He barely dodges it, but at least manages. He ducks right before it shakes him up, then angrily looks at the direction where the robot was tossed from. ]

What the hell!? Watch it! You almost hit me!!

[ An energetic, short kid is huffing towards the direction, but he doesn't really know who threw the robot towards him. So he's looking around hastily for the guilty person in question. ]
good_ideas: (geez || You're a real piece of work)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-03-23 10:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, thank god she decided to actually stop and read the sign. Shiho wasn't sure how many more ghostly things she could take in a day.

But she's not going to thank him. Instead she's going to look at this disheveled boy (because yes, she did consider herself very grown-up at 16-years-old) and cross her arms.]


I wouldn't be surprised if they tested these out and made sure they did these things.

[The day she trusted in people was the day pigs flew without the help of a hypno user or a psychokinetic. Or a very determined teleporter.]

Eh... I don't like the sound of all that. Doing strange things and hurting people. It seems like it would be hard to go through, but you know, you seem to be very brave about it.
good_ideas: (geez || just when it was getting good)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-03-23 10:53 am (UTC)(link)
[The only thing that managed to save face for him at all was the fact that he asked if she was okay. It didn't make her forget the way he'd managed to get hit in the face with a Christmas-themed phallic object. But it at least added one point in his favor.]

Of course I'm okay. I'm not the one who caught that thing with my face.

[She steps back, giving him space.]

You should probably get up. Even if you barely felt it [which she doubted] you shouldn't stay on the ground like that.

[Magic? That was something for fairy tales, not real life, as far as Yogi knew. Still, he couldn't really say that anything was impossible anymore, and now he's curious. Plus, it would mean that he really could avoid anyone that might actually be a doctor.]

I've never seen healing magic before! If you're sure it's not too much trouble, then, yes please, I'd er-- like to be healed? With magic?
sugarcoats: (057)

you're not my supervisor!!

[personal profile] sugarcoats 2015-03-23 11:05 am (UTC)(link)
Eh, right, we must have, and they probably really are handing out the same thing to everyone, but still! Still, we shouldn't just leave them here, it wouldn't be fair to anyone else.

[This guy is so determined to just to ditch the boxes that Yogi is looking around more desperately for somewhere to stash them. There, across the square and almost hidden behind a bench, he finally sees a trash can.]

There's one! See, we can get rid of these without troubling anyone else! Just... just hang on a minute, I'll be right back!

[And with that Yogi is hurriedly crossing the square, still balancing the boxes. He finally deposits them in the trash bin with great relief, and begins to cross back towards Mercury. You better still be there, dude.]

[ Yoon is sitting at one of the front cars, so he didn't notice right away that Jae-ha was originally behind him. The crowd and the "thrill" of the ride didn't exactly help, either. So when the green dragon casually just... sits down beside him like that, a comedic reaction follows right away.

While the ride is finally at its smooth stages, Yoon uses it as a moment to drink water. He almost chokes on it when he heard that familiar voice. But the good part is, at least he turned away before spitting. No water will actually splash on anyone here! ]


Wh... WHAT!? What the hell, you idiot!!

[ Yoon's surprise is too great at the moment, he literally loses his breath. His face remains frozen in disbelief for the first few seconds, until he calms himself with a light panting. Despite how he reacted right now, his eyes are brightening, his cheeks are reddish; he didn't dislike seeing Jae-ha in the end. Of course not, as he's happy to actually see him. ]
beaconed: (069)

[personal profile] beaconed 2015-03-23 11:07 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if the cute lady insists!

[ She's right, and he does kind of prefer to be standing, but he'll make it sound like he's fulfilling a heartfelt request. Y'know, still trying to save face and all! Once he's up on his feet, he towers over her as a 6'1, seemingly chipper as if he never even got hurt in the first place.

One can probably guess this happens to him a lot. ]


Name's Jaune, by the way. Jaune Arc.
sugarcoats: (091)

[personal profile] sugarcoats 2015-03-23 11:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Why couldn't it have been a present that was even a little bit on this side of normal to hand to strangers? He offers a smile that is trying very hard for relaxed and shakes his head.]

No, no, it didn't, not at all! I'm just-- I don't need this kind of thing, so even though it was a present, I think I'm just going to. Get rid of it as soon as possible. I'm sure the what was it called, the Santa Bot, will understand!
sugarcoats: (030)

[personal profile] sugarcoats 2015-03-23 11:15 am (UTC)(link)
[He really should've expected to be laughed at, but it was still just embarrassing enough for Yogi to duck his head slightly as he crammed the opened gift box into the trashcan as far as he could. Feeling a bit better, he turns and smiles at Tieria with a little laugh.]

Thank you, that helped! I really needed that! It's just that that wasn't a good gift and I didn't want to end up walking around with it all night or taking it with me. That would've been bad.
fortheprincess: (than the magazines you read)

[personal profile] fortheprincess 2015-03-23 11:28 am (UTC)(link)
[ He turns to the source of the voice; a younger girl with silver hair, appearing to be interested in the Fun House...which really, really isn't 'fun' for most. The thrill of the battle is pretty exciting for him - just not when your prey completely disappears in the midst of the battle. ]

Nah, it's fine. [ Is it worrying that he's so nonchalant about it? Maybe. ] It'll go away on its own.
fortheprincess: (make it alright)

[personal profile] fortheprincess 2015-03-23 11:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ As Hak is exiting the house, he's using the back of his palm to wipe off a small drop of blood on his chin. This whole park-whatever is dangerous and whoever says that this place was for comfort is a liar.

He's ready to head off again, until he hears someone address him by his title. Thunder Beast.

He's caught completely off-guard, because while there are many people who call him that, there's only one place those people can be from. And only one person that voice belongs to. ]


Yoon!

[ Where you at, boy? ]
psycholawgy: (iyaaa~n senpai so bold)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-23 11:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ Sorry. This girl is also known for emotional blackmail. She starts sobbing and wiping whatever fake tears come out of her eyes. ]

You got all the cotton candy, you big meanie!

[ Now she's pointing at his stash of snacks. ]

That's waaaay too much for one guy, you know? You'll get fat, and that's not gonna be good for you!

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-03-23 11:38 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oh no... It's the love hotel job, isn't it. Athena's smile falters, just imagining it. And her judgment surely clouds her thoughts, and it's why she tells him: ]

Life is hard, you know! It's kind of why you picked the job you have now!

[ It's after that that she starts sobbing openly, feeling bad for the guy. ]

Tch...

[ What's with this? THERE'S A FAINTED PERSON ON THE GROUND, YET NO ONE CARES... This scene is definitely abnormal!! Is there no medical team around to pay attention to these like these!? What kind of sick system does this park run under?

As people continue to pass over Belph, Yoon's patience snap, and he decides to make his way towards the young man himself. Since he wants to avoid the crowd crushing the two of them, he attempts to pull the other over to the nearest bench... which is thankfully not that far off! ]


Hey, are you conscious? Hang in there for a bit more!
hoasen: (whisper)

[EPIC RUN.... Ah, the day in the life of Hak. And here's a bandage! Fortunately, with his pants cut as is, all she'll need to do is slightly tug at the rip for it to open and then just slide the bandage in. With deft fingers like hers, she makes it look easy and took no time at all.]

I see, yes I understand what you mean. There might be other friends of yours here too. Many of mine are also here, though we all share different times.

[She looks up, ready to put a bandage on his face now that he's not complaining anymore (the small one again). He looks worried. He's held on for long since the trip here.] Since we are so far into the future, once we can go back, I am certain you can go back to the time you were taken. It would be like you never left at all. I'm not sure if that helps you now... [But it is something for him to think about so that he doesn't stress out.]

[No promises, probably...

But that sure is a confusing statement?! Gosh, maybe this guy still thinks there's a way back home. Even though Kaoru doesn't believe the whole "your planet has been destroyed" thing, that sure doesn't make it any easier to escape the bubble that is Cerealia. So, with a mildly troubled expression:]


We don't... There is no way to contact where we've come from.

[personal profile] souredsweet 2015-03-23 11:54 am (UTC)(link)

The— oh. [Good thing there's only one weirdass robot handing out gifts, or Kaoru wouldn't have been able to narrow it down from that description at all. All of this Christmas holiday garbage is foreign, anyway - Kaoru has no idea who the Santabot is supposed to be emulating.]

They do tend to give out things like that here. You have to take care, or they'll get horribly invasive about it.

[Like, "condom machines that stalk you down the streets" levels of invasive.]
