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 ❅

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.

[ wow so not only is she awesome, but she's got a neat career, too?! kindred spirits if there ever were ones. ]

Omigosh, that's SO exciting! [ you know, except the murder part. ] How did the case go? Did you win it?

[ she nods; though she doesn't know about his demons, they don't sound very good.

but man, this got depressing.
]

It was difficult and it took us a while, but we were able to eradicate the Dark Hour and Tartarus. Things should be back to normal now.

[ not without some loss though. she thinks about shinji, still in the hospital, before shaking her head with a wry smile. ]

We were all about to head home, but then I was brought here.

[What do you mean fictional royalty don't get this formal??? Which fictional royalty system are YOU from?

...Although no ok seriously. Some people just... take it straighter up than others...(???)]


That is fine, yes. [He realizes his name is a mouthful, and while he put up with being called "Chal" by the country bumpkins he befriended, it's still a level of familiarity he wouldn't freely give to people he's just met.

...

Princess, though...

He just... blinks, and looks back at her curiously. In part waiting for her to finish, for it would be rude to cut her off, but in part in thought, too. Why didn't she say this right away so he could accord her the respect she deserves? Not that he's mad either, understanding full well how royalty may wish to hide their status at times, to blend among the public without their titles getting in the way. Was she... not supposed to say that? But even if it's a secret, it'll be safe with him! So...

...

Gonna be proper and let her finish without interrupting, yes.]

[ she drops her arms to her sides, but she smiles, half out of a disbelief and the other half out of real joy. whatever the circumstances were here, one of her dearest friends was in her life again, and she would not take that for granted.

she sniffles a little. ]
I...haven't seen anyone else yet. But there are tons of people here, so it might just be a matter of finding them! Maybe we'll all be together again here!

[ stay positive, stay positive...don't think about their destroyed world, about what they risked losing forever. seeing tadashi has pushed a lot of her more unruly emotions to the surface, but one thing at a time. ]

Why wouldn't I want new shoes? I've only got one right now!

[The excitement soon grasps Lee! He rushes right in at an incredible speed and claims the empty seat.]

I'm here! I'm here! I'm ready and fired up!!

[It did get a little depressing--

Naoki's expression eases slightly (he can be relieved for others, who were able to accomplish their goals, despite having just met), and he smiles sympathetically at her.]
What a sense of timing these CERES guys have, huh?

I was about to head off to... what'll probably end up being my most important fight.

[When her hand is smacked away, she doesn't even react.

Her hands just hang in the air for a moment as she tries to process what just happened as her fingers twitch slightly in the air in a motion that vaguely resembles groping.

She's groped flat girls through thick padding before. This...didn't really feel the same.

Granted, there may be someone in this world flatter than Aoi--okay, she felt bad about saying this about Aoi but that didn't seem so likely.

And now that she was thinking about it, her Boob Senses(TM) weren't tingling...but that would mean...]

[She takes a half step back and she looks more horrified than is strictly necessary.]

You're a guy!?

[Have the deepest look of absolute betrayal directed your way, Kaoru.]

Well, yeah. It's an energy propellant.

[ A beat. ] Iiii'm guessing you guys don't have Auras or Semblances where you're from either, huh?

So you're some sort of locksmith?

[ when she feels him stand, she struggles to rise along with him, but they both kind of stumble over each other in the process. ]

A-Alive? There's no way— you're just messing with me, right?

[ ... ]

Right?

Hell if I know!

[Deep debates about the biology and composition of his opposition have never been a favored go-to of his, Shinjiro preferring to just curl up his fist and smash it into the face of the nearest opponent, whether it be human or Shadow or something else entirely.

The only way he would care is if the thing's physiology made it impossible for him to land any sort of hit, but that doesn't seem to be the case now, Castor rearing up and charging full-tilt at the nearest demon.

Of course, physical attacks are only one way to go about this. He turns to Yosuke.]


What other magic does your Persona know?

[A variety would be nice, but he knows from experience most Personas only stick to one specialty.]
ritterlich: (❧ zorn {rage})

[personal profile] ritterlich 2015-04-05 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
Is there a calendar system in place? Manually counting the days would not be difficult, nor would keeping a journal.

[Which he is considering... He did it back home too, it's totally not a diary.]

What? The colony that claims it retrieves individuals to unite and fight an inter-worldly menace together would pit these lives against each other?! What manner of demented madmen would condone murderers?

[That totally overrode the sharing memories part, oops... Granted with Spirias and Somatics, going "into" other people's "hearts" and getting the truth of their feelings is kinda similar, so...]
bewrightback: (call me call me)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-04-05 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
[He gives a thoughtful look as he considers that.]

I don't have many tricks on my feet, I'm afraid. Depending on the situation... I'd just have to think on my feet. Maybe find something to bluff about... and see if there's anyone who can fight who I can hide behind. [He'll just... admit that without shame.]

[ you know that's right ]

I'm Honey Lemon! And you?

[And with that, Kaoru immediately regrets sticking with the helpless delicate maiden act to the point that the attempted grope became an Actual Grope. SURE it would have looked suspicious if someone so small and fragile-looking had managed to snatch someone else's hand mid-grab, and Kaoru doesn't always have the self control necessary to keep those self-protective gestures from becoming harmful, but IT SURE WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER THAN THIS...

Still, Kaoru is incredibly skilled when it comes to adapting and acting on the fly, and the expression present instantly shifts from shocked and confused to Really Shocked and Offended™ almost seamlessly, like Kaoru has just single-handedly managed to insult everything about her sorry nametwin's existence.]


How rude...! [AND ACCURATE (but of course that isn't the point)--] I've never met someone so lacking in manners! [NOT ACCURATE--

But Kaoru is soon attempting to step around her, arms crossed over his chest defensively just in case.]

If our reward is exploring this place further, I will definitely have to pass.

[He's not scared!!! No!! At least he grew up out of wetting his pants. Still, he doesn't want to relive anything that is a horrible as that way. But she does raise a point there...]

Checking to see if the buses came back is a good idea. I must agree with you there.

[personal profile] omurice 2015-04-05 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
That is one theory to think about. However, it's presentation had felt far too real, even if it was far to surreal at the same time.

[He doesn't want to believe it, yet at the same time he doesn't want to not believe it and have it end up really being a reality he needs to face. The practical side of him says it's all false, but...]

If we could figure out that reason, then the solution to everything would fall into place. To find the reason, however, will be much easier said than done I imagine.
