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.

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!!!


particularity: (m ✣ never ever had a pure love)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Hinata is going to sit right next to him, completely at ease???

But his expression is contorting in the patented slightly exasperated and amazed look that he so excels at...]


Is that what you're asking about...? [...] I don't eat out at restaurants that often, so I can't really say that much... but I think that they're good? They have all kinds of food that'd be the same as home, and there aren't any strange alien foods I've seen yet.
bozu: (And jalapeños onto skewers)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Ah yes, that look. The one he gets a lot.
It's actually kinda nice to see!]


Big competition, then. But if their food is anything like you'd get at home, there's no use worrying for someone like myself!

Once we're out of this park, how about you show me around? We could do a little shopping, and I'll make you an unforgettable meal as thanks!
Or maybe even a little more, mmhmhm!

[And this is the kind of conversation he'd rather be having, that's for sure.
He even looks a little less uneasy about everything, talking about food with his friend...]
particularity: (m ✣ the heart's rearranged)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
...No, I'll pass on the little more, thanks...

[Just like that... falling back into old habits... They aren't so easy to erase, not even after it's been a year and a half.]

But I can show you around. Though, er, it might be late by then. [But-- damn it, Hinata can't just slip into this kind of conversation even if Teruteru is looking less uneasy. He needs to say what he needs to say.] ...Say, Hanamura, are you worrying?
bozu: (so i remembered the mangas exist)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
Ah - worrying?

[And now he's uneasy again, though he's quick to try and hide it, giving his friend a smile.]

Well, you know, there's a lot to worry about! Like those robots - getting shoved around wasn't really as fun as it looked, after all. And the way they treat their guests, it's just rude.
I'm pretty sure I saw one armed with a machine gun, too...

Not to mention the food here isn't even worth looking at.

But I'm much less worried with you here, you know! If anything bad happens, I can just leap into your strong arms for protection...!
particularity: (m ✣ this idea of ours)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
...

[Maybe Hinata would have accepted that a long time ago... but then that first trial happened... and a lot of other things happened after that and if they'd just noticed or talked to each other more maybe things wouldn't have...

He reaches over to thump Teruteru's shoulder.]


You know what I'm talking about, Hanamura.

[But--] If you don't want to talk about it, I'm not gonna force you to, but... I at least wanted to tell you that, as a friend, I will help you or just be there if anything happens. I've already...accepted all of what happened before.
bozu: (the look of a stomach ache)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
[A little surprised at that, he rubs the spot where Hinata thumps him, sheepishly looking away for a moment.
"As a friend"... that means Hinata actually doesn't hate him, somehow. Does that mean he should go ahead and talk about it?

...It's still a little too much to think about, right now. At least, for Teruteru. But...]


... Well, if all that's true, then... can I ask you something a little strange?
particularity: (s ✣ we name every cape)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, of course.

[Right away, with no hesitation... He doesn't expect Teruteru to go speaking about everything all at once, but he'd wanted to tell him what he did. And he'll probably leave the whole story of everything else until a little later, unless it comes up somehow.

Just like with Pekoyama. He wants to tell them, but he doesn't want them to get it the same way he did, all at once with no time to process.]
bozu: (doesnt matter to me)

1/2

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Just like that, huh... maybe Hinata really is interested in staying his friend.
It takes him a good moment or so to actually muster what he's trying to ask, though - looking way less comfortable than he did just a second ago.]


At... the end, there. Everything that happened... did I really...?

[... That's not really a coherent question, huh. But he's not really clarifying it, either...]
bozu: (me? murder?? haha funny joke guys)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[... And then he hops off the bench, turning to give Hinata an uneasy smile.]

Ahh, nevermind, nevermind - we're at an amusement park! We should be doing fun things, like scouting out rides or hitting on cute girls!
How about we go find something we can do together; I certainly wouldn't mind getting stuck on the ferris wheel with you, if you know what I mean!

[Sorry, Hinata. He wants to ask about everything, to see if everything that happened actually happened, but at the same time...]
particularity: (m ✣ i've got a worried heart)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Hinata pushes himself up from the bench too and reaches out to just pat him on the shoulder again, not reacting to even the insinuation... pat pat with the same hand he probably punched that helicopter involved in Teruteru's execution with that one time.

He'll probably never mention that. Dropping his hand, he shakes his head.]
Whenever you're ready, I can answer everything for you.

[And that's all he'll say.] But... for now... actually, I think all of the rides here are the kinds we wouldn't want to go on if we wanted to get out of them unscathed...
bozu: (Heat grill to medium-high)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
[That's... actually pretty comforting to hear, after everything. That Hinata would willingly sit and answer his questions, even if they could end up being stupid or just sad.

... But y'know what, it's time to stop thinking about all of that entirely. That's how he works, after all!!]


Well... you're probably right. I did want to try the funhouse to maybe see if there were any low mirrors for easy peeking, but none of those screams I heard were the fun kind.
If it's that scary, it should be called a haunted house, not a funhouse!
particularity: (m ✣ well i can see it as time)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Please think of it at least a little bit later!!]

Seriously. They can't even do an amusement park right. Unless they made it like this on purpose... [His tone is the tone of someone who is Fed Up with corporations. Bit too much experience. Also gently glosses over a certain part of what Teruteru said. Yes. Better that way.]

But I should check out everything eventually anyway. See if there's anything worth finding in their rides. [Clues...]
bozu: (um???)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Never!!!]

"On purpose"? And... finding things in their rides? Er...
This place isn't like... well, you know - is it?

[Like the island...? He's actually looking around for monitors, now - and maybe stepping a tad closer to Hinata as he does so.]

I mean... if their rides could be dangerous on purpose, then... maybe it'd be safer to just get out of here!
particularity: (f ✣ to call our own)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
Huh? Oh, no-- it's more...

[...How does he put this?]

...well, I mean, it is dangerous here sometimes and people can start acting strangely... [HOW DOES HE PUT THIS IN A GOOD WAY...???] But no, it's not like there.

For now, I think it's safe as long as we don't go on the rides. [Though he will go on them later, by himself. For investigating.]
bozu: (so whos sleeping with the dark lord)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
As long as we don't go on the rides, huh...
Well, if you say so, then it must be true. After all, you've been here longer than myself!

But if things do go wrong, you'll hold my hand, right?

[Yep, apparently not even phased. Maybe.

... And he's apparently not stepping back again either, so Hinata gets to put up with him being right there.]
particularity: (s ✣ but i might)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Takes a liiiiittle side-step away. Just enough for him to feel less like Teruteru's all way up right there.]

No, er, I don't think you'll need me to hold your hand...

[...he thinks.]
bozu: (8 red jalapeño peppers)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Aw, c'mon Hinata - it's just a little hand holding!!]

But what if something terrifying happens, and we need to run somewhere safe?
You wouldn't want me to get lost in these crowds, would you?

Or, what if we wanted to go somewhere that's more populated? Imagine getting separated somewhere like that!
You'd definitely need to hold my hand then!

[It sure is great having your friends back, eh, Hinata?]
particularity: (m ✣ they don't wanna be lonely)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
[It's so great...

Yes... So great.]


T-that's... Well, we don't know if anything like that will happen yet, so we don't need to worry about that right now. And it's not so busy we'll lose track of each other here.

[Stop wanting to hold his hand so much!! He's actually tucking them in his pockets right now.]
bozu: (Heat grill to medium-high)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
Alright, alright, none of that then.
I'll just have to try something else...!

But for now, how about we go check out some of the food stalls? I'm not sure I can trust some of them, but...
Maybe the candy will be alright.

[You can take your hands back out, it's safe!! Gosh!!]
particularity: (f ✣ i'm a slave to)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Phew. Okay, he will-- but maybe not because it's a little cool out too and pockets are cozy.]

The food stalls? Okay. [Not a surprising decision, considering it's Hanamura-- He turns to start walking.]

Which should we check out first?
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!
particularity: (m ✣ remains)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
'Even me'... I'm not bad at cooking, you know...

[He does most of it b/c he's been living with Komaeda for a year and a half and Komaeda has never quite mastered cooking, though to his credit he didn't start until they got here.

Still, some of the things he does to food... But shaking that aside, Hinata glances around until he spots a stand for funnel cakes.]
bozu: (And jalapeños onto skewers)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
But are you good at cooking? It's easy to not be bad at it, but being good at it is a whole different animal!

[Does that even make sense? Probably not. But Teruteru knows what he's about, man.

Funnel cakes, though. Those are the important thing right now!]


At the very least, I know these should at least be edible, if not passable.
You'll take the first bite for me, right?
particularity: (m ✣ it's okay if it's only inside a drea)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-03-23 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
I think I am, at least... probably.

[Offended... vaguely... but not enough to get huffy about it because Teruteru would know.]

I'm testing if they're edible, am I? [Ah, guinea pig treatment. Familiar. If they're (for some reason) full of poison, Teruteru, he will come back to haunt you.]
Edited 2015-03-23 05:09 (UTC)
bozu: (well if you ask me...)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-23 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Edible and worth eating, of course!

[Which means he's the one being ushered up to the stall.
Plus, it's a way to get around spending money on someone else's cooking.]


Order whatever kind you like!
