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.

punchesyu: (What do you MEAN the food's not edible?!)

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-03-23 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't say ominous stuff like that!

[Did the seat just writhe underneath him? He looks down in the blackness, wishing so much that he could just see what's going on.]

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Would there be any place that Teruteru would spend his money on, though... Hinata looks down at the funnel cake... and then he sort of wraps it up. He'll keep it for later.

No sense wasting food!

Especially since Teruteru's talking about trying more...]
Is it just going to be me trying them again...?

Hmph, then you have my sympathies.

[Unfortunately for her, she doesn't know that. For all intents and purposes, Kaneki has suddenly turned into a vaguely familiar stranger right in front of her. After all, her last memory is of him grimacing at an unconscious Banjou. While it had been his handywork, the idiot had still been shocked. A very Kaneki thing to do; to be surprised over the results of all their training.

Something about the way he says that apology... ticks her off. A lot. But she bites her cheek and makes an effort to keep things civil. Stay calm, idiot. Inhale and exhale. She doesn't want to turn this sorry excuse of a reunion into a fist fight. Not now, anyway. It'd be so much better if she could figure this out without losing her temper and beating the hell out of him.

She grunts.]


So it seems. [And then she's gesturing with her head towards the direction of the exit.] Let's get the hell out of here. I can't stand those stupid reindeer.

I don't know this thing at all.

[ But it seems to like her. ]
multiglyphs: (Default)

[personal profile] multiglyphs 2015-03-23 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not afraid.

[ it's the first thing she thinks to clarify, voice small but firm. even to this stranger, she still struggles to maintain some semblance of control. without it, she'd just be another helpless person, and her pride absolutely refuses to let her become that. not after she'd worked so long and so hard to prove her strength. ]

I just don't like it here. What kind of awful amusement park is this, anyway? They shouldn't be allowing people to ride this if it isn't going to be working properly.

[ as if that were really the only issue here. but it's a lot easier to deal with things if you break it down. ]
bozu: (Soak 8 wooden skewers)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Only at first! Just until we find something I like.

[... That sounds like they'll be doing this with quite a few different stalls, doesn't it -]

There was an ice cream stand, too - but it might be a bit too chilly for that, maybe?
Of course, we could always do something physical and exciting to warm up afterward, hmhmhm!

Or we could go try to find the best candy apples in the park!
We'd have to hold them for a bit to soften the candy shell, of course, but it'd be worth it in the end!

[personal profile] afterdusk 2015-03-23 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ............. ]

Ohhh. So it's for something like that.

[ Well it might not be of use to her. ]

Maybe I should give them to Hak. He might be able to use them...

[ Yona no..... she looks so proud of that solution too. ]
punchesyu: (you mean you don't believe me?)

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-03-23 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[Not gunna lie those eyes of hers are creeping him out a little bit. He sits back in his seat nervously.]

Uhhhhh, if you say so I guess...! It's just, I'd be careful about telling someone who's carrying around a sword like that. You know, just in case...

[His voice trails off, the last bit of the sentence being 'in case you were gunna kill them' but Peko is a little intimidating, to say the least.]
niceguypose: (concerned)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-03-23 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah! I see! But that does not explain this hug...

[personal profile] dereban 2015-03-23 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think it looks that bad. You're not bald, after all. . .

[ Even though she's holding back her own laughter at his new haircut Just... ever... so slightly. ]
nostatus: (i'm not sure if anybody understands)

phase iii

[personal profile] nostatus 2015-03-23 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ... is this guy crying.

No, for real, is that a crying man in the middle of this amusement park. That's just about the last thing Shinpachi expected to run into, and there's a part of him that can't help but approach the sad sack sitting there--

-- even if it's just to say something Larry probably doesn't have to hear right now. Whoops. ]


Oi, what kinda man are you, crying like that? [ Say hi to the muscle mountain samurai standing in front of you suddenly.. ]
allfortheclan: (♊ cute ninja is cute)

[personal profile] allfortheclan 2015-03-23 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ You're welcome, Hak. ]

If you think so. [ Pleasant, zen-like expression. ]

Are you a new arrival?
multiglyphs: (Default)

[personal profile] multiglyphs 2015-03-23 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[ someone died?????????????? vietnam you are scarily good at being underwhelming about these things. 8[;;;; ]

That's even worse!

[ oh no, you're just starting her up again. this is the last thing she wanted to hear after being dragged here in the first place. ]

There has to be something we can do?
afterdusk: (pic#8807541)

[personal profile] afterdusk 2015-03-23 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
It startled me too. I don't know what to do...
punchesyu: (causally talking and shiiiii)

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-03-23 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh!!! [That flat look what's that supposed to mean???]

Well, I mean you can program a machine to do whatever you want. Those aren't real reindeer, no way. [They can't be. After the Ferris wheel ride he's not so sure but they shouldn't be alive.]
punchesyu: (dude no that's not a nice thing to say)

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-03-23 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I think you and I have very different definitions of exciting. [He says flatly, because she looks like something attacked her.]
particularity: (m ✣ that'll be enough)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[Until they find something he likes... That could take a while. And by that time, Hinata doubts he'll be able to really enjoy whatever Teruteru likes.]

Hey, Hanamura...

Let's just go find a random candy apple stall and both give it a try. No watching how they do it this time, no me testing it first, just getting one and eating it. [What is he saying, no just give him a second--] Even though the atmosphere's one thing, something's the most delicious at carnivals when you get to eat it with someone else.

What d'you think?
niceguypose: (righteous)

[personal profile] niceguypose 2015-03-23 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? Ah... then I will help you!

[Now that he has some awareness that this is a problem.

Rock Lee races into action and... calmly taps the snowbot on the shoulder.]


Excuse me, sir! I believe that your hug should end!
poised: (✰ do goatees truly have such power?)

[personal profile] poised 2015-03-23 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[What a friendly nod. Still though, she only looks vaguely amused now. Truly, Hak is so different from the dragons and Yoon, but she can't quite put her finger on it....

(He's not cute at all, that's what it is. But she hasn't quite realized that yet.)]


I believe they're around.... Shin-Ah and Ki-ja at least are very difficult to miss. Would you like me to assist you in locating them?
afterdusk: (pic#8816902)

[personal profile] afterdusk 2015-03-23 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She's so glad that's settled. ]

Oh. Yes! My name is Yona. What's yours?
candycoating: (043)

[personal profile] candycoating 2015-03-23 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Nothing finer in this world or the one I left behind. Gotta admit, I'm glad the space-future still has it. [ Yeah, Gaius, your priorities are real good here. Let's just focus on the candy and nothing else, okay? ] Otherwise, I'd be one miserable guy.
bozu: (well if you ask me...)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
... Hm?

[What is Hinata saying all of a sudden, talking like he'll just eat any old thing - oh. Well.
He actually looks like he has to consider this for a second.]


... You know, when you're right, you're right. That's really when food at a carnival tastes the best; when you're eating with a friend!
So - lead the way! I'll be happy to share one with you!

[Yes, now they're sharing a candy apple, whether or not that was Hinata's intention.]
punchesyu: (where is that stupid bear)

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-03-23 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, come on bro, did you even try it? [Says a still in shock Yosuke.]

It couldn't of been that bad. [It was a little weird but truth be told Yosuke, in his current state...would have eaten it.]
swordboning: (pic#8713738)

[personal profile] swordboning 2015-03-23 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh? Are you firmly acquainted with this?
