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.

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. If this post goes into overflow, we will make a new one to deal with the ever-hated captcha! Worry not!


aerialassault: (thinking-- we got this right?)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-03-26 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[Will the court allow a continuation of this testimony be recorded here?]

It's just good strategy, like what you'd read in....what's it called? 'The Art of War.'
bewrightback: (sweating bullets)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-27 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Of course.]

I can't say that I've had the pleasure of reading that. I may have once been an art student, but not of the war variety...
aerialassault: (thinking -- hmm)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-03-27 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
[He shrugged]

Well, it ain't for everyone. I was just tryin' to say that these guys are as normal as we are, but they're looking to plan for the worst themselves, and that's why we're here. What can we do to make plans like that, when we still don't know the whole scoop? I dunno-- and that's wh I'm just gonna see what happens.
bewrightback: (Default)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-27 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe... That does sound possible. Either way, I guess that there isn't really much we can do now except for that last part... waiting and seeing what happens.
aerialassault: (confident -- you gotta deal)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-03-28 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Cliff nodded.]

And being ready to move if we've got an opening, [he added.]

...It's Cliff, by the way. Cliff Fittir. There's a lotta kids 'round here, don't ya think?

[It seemed almost suspicious, for an army that was cobbled together on the fly.]
bewrightback: (Default)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-28 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Like in the courtroom... I have to wait for the right time to make a move.]

Nice to meet you, Cliff. I'm Phoenix Wright. Yeah... I have noticed quite a few youngsters around.

[It inspires a mixed feeling. One one hand, this place certainly doesn't seem like it should be for kids, especially since many don't seem to have parental supervision. On the other hand, assuming what they've been told is true, he's glad for every young person who's been saved from destruction.]
aerialassault: (careful -- overdid it there)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-03-29 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
You've gotta wonder what those guys are thinking on that front.

[He had mixed feelings as well-- he's met too many young people burdened with great responsibility to be comfortable with the trend continuing in this strange new world. There should at least be a few ethical standards in place-- but, with the circumstances as they were, it may have been for the better.

He shook his head.]


Guess all us old guys can do is try to keep 'em outta too much trouble, huh? I don't agree with recruiting teenage soldiers, but it is what it is.
bewrightback: (oh right I have a court record)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-30 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I know that I'll do what I can. [He shakes his head.]

I heard that we would be expected to help with the issue against these 'Flamines'. But I don't think that's the same as a draft notice. I know that I won't stand for my daughter being forced to any role like that.
aerialassault: (thinking -- with Mirage)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-03-31 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, man. That must be rough.

[He offered a sympathetic smile to Phoenix.]

It is what it is, unfortunately, and I'd be a hypocrit if I tried to keep my girl out of a fight....but, that said, part of me is glad she's not here.

If we are called to help, there's gotta be things to be done that'll keep the people who don't wanna fight out of it. I've got no problems with these guys yet, but there's gonna be a few if they're gonna force people out there.
bewrightback: (grim hawk face)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-03-31 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
I know that I won't stand for it. I've seen a number of people around who are non-combatants... I can't even fight either. I'm just a defense attorney. So I'm trying to be hopeful that we'll have a way that won't involve having to fight.
aerialassault: (confident -- you gotta deal)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-04-01 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
If there's not, I'll help ya find a way to do something about it. I can fight, but it does look like a lot of people here can't-- it's not fair to make 'em do so either, morals and ethics of everything here be damned.

[That was the sort of government he spent years railing against back in his home, after all. He wasn't going to tolerate that here.]
bewrightback: (a very special presentation...)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-04-02 01:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks... I do appreciate the offer. [But this arm was made for pointing, not fighting.]]

My name's Phoenix Wright, by the way. [He presents his badge.] I'm a defense attorney.
aerialassault: (confident -- whatev)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2015-04-04 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
[He didn't expect the stranger to fight at all-- he meant in terms of civilian action. He was by no means a soldier, and didn't take kindly to the notion of fighting a war.]

Clitt Fittir. [He said, with a grin.] I'm sometimes a bodyguard, sometimes an engineer, and a full time civil reformist. Hopefully neither of us will need to do our jobs here.
bewrightback: (let's make criminals look foolish)

[personal profile] bewrightback 2015-04-04 01:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's some skill set... I would have guessed the only things he reformed were with his fists.]

Is that so? I'll keep that in mind, and I'll hope for the best. It's nice to meet you, Cliff.
