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.

kicksilver: (so just sit down and listen)

[personal profile] kicksilver 2015-04-01 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it?

[ just cocks his head to a side. ]

I guess. It's not that impressive.
sunshrouded: (☀ i simply find it astounding)

[personal profile] sunshrouded 2015-04-01 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, quit moving!! You're just going to hurt yourself again!

I'm going to take that as a "I don't really mean it, I'm just saying it to be polite". For what it's worth, I really did mean it.

[She's been in worse circumstances, she thinks. He's funny, so it's nice to meet him.]

So are you sticking around to keep an eye on people?
aerialassault: (confident -- you gotta deal)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-04-01 04:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[It explained nothing-- but, this wasn't his first translation malfunction in this place. What was wrong with his communicator?

However, her confident little smirk was telling enough.]


Hah. It sounds like you'd be one tough girl to take in a spar!

[He liked that look in her eyes.]

[....Tosa... in Japan...]

Yep, that's entirely foreign to me.

[She hums thoughtfully, moving right along with him, arms crossed lightly (to cover up the stab holes).]

I wonder if that's in the past...? [from where she's at. But as for her...]

... The place I come from is boring, though. You don't want to hear about that. What's Tosa, in Japan, like?
compossible: (Time Master)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-04-01 04:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm Elcia. It's nice to meet you.

[there, problem solved]
kicksilver: (so take off the top)

[personal profile] kicksilver 2015-04-01 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
'course. Do you accept?
compossible: (You Cannot Change The Future)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-04-01 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
They are at that. Though this doesn't seem all that different from mine.

[She pauses, eyeing a robot thoughtfully. Hm.]

This place may be a little technologically inferior, though...
particularity: (m ✣ well i can see it as time)

[personal profile] particularity 2015-04-01 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Good, Kuzuryuu, you're already halfway to being completely savvy--]

Yeah... [...] I had to deal with her back in the last place I was, but she hasn't been here. Though her sister was here for a little while.
compossible: (Butterfly of Doom)

[personal profile] compossible 2015-04-01 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
No.

[oh. whoops.]

I wasn't there to prevent anything, really. It was more that... I was there to find things out.

[so the usual.]
deontology: (LXXV.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-04-01 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[......well. He won't pry. And it seems about right to him.]

I see. Then there is nothing to be concerned over.

[Naturally.

He turns then to go, because--]


Then we are finished here.

[sorry, Judith....]
fatalstriker: (pic#7598022)

[personal profile] fatalstriker 2015-04-01 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Nobody said we were going to sit around and wait long.

[it's just a process.]
compossible: (You Cannot Change The Future)

heung soo.

[personal profile] compossible 2015-04-01 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[what if she wants to spread weird rumors that he likes to wear dresses--]

You're pretty enough for it.

[But it's just a tossed out comment AND MOVING ON. She waves a hand at the...everything around them...]

I was not really sure where you could find a clothing store in a place like this. The singing reindeer couldn't tell me the way either.

[said so...dryly...]
thatdamnknight: (love is merely a madness)

[personal profile] thatdamnknight 2015-04-01 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shame that Flynn buys into it and finds it super unnerving. Flynn frowns heavily, unsure of both himself as well as of this stranger. It's that smile that's so off-putting. Who would smile so cheerily when another is so on edge? Then again, some people do have the strangest sense of humor.]

There's odd creatures inside the mirrors.

[He brings a hand up to his head. A headache's coming on, he can feel it.]

Or maybe it's just my mind playing tricks on me.

[Is he going crazy? Knightly duties have both been intense and made sleep take a backseat so is this just a result that? Sleep deprived + overworked = going crazy??]
good_ideas: (blush || that's indecent!)

!

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-04-01 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[She'd know that voice anywhere.]

Kaoru!

[Wait....she was coming at her kind of fast. Shiho doesn't flinch though, she knows Kaoru better than that.]

[personal profile] unpresidential 2015-04-01 05:19 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[yeah, that's the dead-eyed pause. of course she's got experience with this sort of thing. she's covered in blood and probably about as anime as most people here. why would nam soon be surprised by that at this point? it's a mystery.]

Things happen. Usually every couple of weeks. [usually. he stops for a second to think about the things that happened before, because there aren't many connecting points.] A murder game with clowns, some people lost senses for a while. Living other people's memories. Games breaking badly. Things like that.
good_ideas: (geez || Just plain wrong)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-04-01 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
You're going to wait till it does something dangerous first? Isn't being creepy and strange enough?

[Shiho's not sure this guy has his priorities straight.]

Besides, it's pissing me off.

[Which is also not a legitimate reason for killing it.]
good_ideas: (geez || This takes me back)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-04-01 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
There are plenty. No one wants to lose the chance of writing a sequel, after all.

[She's kind of sure that she's not from one of those, though.]

With your-

[Looks down at his foot, then takes a step back.]

Who steps on a cockroach with their foot?!

[To have actual physical contact with a cockroach? Even if there's a shoe separating the two of you? This is completely inconceivable to her.]
deontology: (I.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-04-01 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[He inspects Soramaru for a moment--and then nods. If he can straighten like that, it can't be too serious, but they'll have to get it checked out later, he supposes.]

Let's go.

[as for the rest, while he's on high alert as he walks, he certainly can still brief Soramaru on the situation.]

This sort of welcome for newcomers is common for this place. Never be complacent here.
good_ideas: (happy || I'm just full of great ideas)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-04-01 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[Good guys get taken advantage of, Shinpachi. Just be glad that she's matured into a high school girl and is no longer the terror she was at 10 years old or he'd lose everything.]

I had a little bit of trouble.

[She solved it with a gun and actually smiles cheerfully at him because of this memory.]

But it's nothing I can't handle. Thanks for volunteering, though. Maybe I'll take you up on that offer some other time.

[Say no and run away. She will try to take his money!!]
thatdamnknight: (not stepping o'er the bounds of modesty)

[personal profile] thatdamnknight 2015-04-01 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[okay, even super blushing flynn manages to crack a small smile at that.]

No, the... [he pauses. what was it called again?? oh!] movie would have actually been enjoyable if you were.

[...wait. WAIT. he flushes again and quickly adds]

With you three fully clothed, of course!

[AND NOT NAKED. no no definitely not naked. the last thing he needs is to see them naked again and-- ...he got a nosebleed last time, didn't he? don't tell him...]
twomeals: ([oh] 17)

[personal profile] twomeals 2015-04-01 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wow, what a good guesser! But Yue....eventually nods.]

I guess I wouldn't....[he starts to move towards the nearest trash can, but then--] Would you want it?
thatdamnknight: (to thine own self be true)

[personal profile] thatdamnknight 2015-04-01 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[till she clears that up, flynn's going think it's a cute imaginary friend. all normal little girls have those, right??]

It's something you get used to over time. I honestly forget I'm wearing it most days.
good_ideas: (geez || just when it was getting good)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-04-01 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shiho takes her outstretched hand back and crosses her arms, determined never to help him again because she was just as stubborn and could hold a petty grudge like nobody's business.]

Fine. See if I ever try to help you out of the goodness of my heart ever again.

[Says the person that caused him to fall in the first place.]

You should be glad it's just a bruise, then, and not something like a fracture or a concussion.
good_ideas: (geez || when I figure this out...)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2015-04-01 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not a real amusement park without caramel apples.

Oh, and churros!

[Because nearly all Japanese amusement parks had those! She could do with two. Or twenty.]

Cotton candy really isn't filling, but I guess it's a start. Where did you see it?
