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.

So you're the caring and somewhat fussy healer type, then? I wouldn't say I'm comforted...

[ But she does sound softly amused. ]
sewayaku: (*stabs nesso in the butt*)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-01 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
[ with businesslike sharpness: ]

Responsible, not fussy. Now, may I?

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-01 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
[ FUSSY. But Judith hums an affirmation, obligingly extending her leg out a bit. ]

My leg's in your care.
sewayaku: (fuck you)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-01 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you for cooperating, [ he responds cordially.

As a matter of fact, he doesn't have his suitcase with him - he's stopped carrying it around so much now that he doesn't have a deathly ill girl by his side at all times - but he does have some basic first aid supplies on him, because old habits die hard. Fortunately, the impact wasn't enough that she has too much stuck in her. Unfortunately, he's still going to have to pick some pieces out. The rabbit fishes a small pair of tweezers out of one of his pockets. ]


This may sting.

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-01 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
It's fine. I only kick enemies and the occasional drunkard.

[ She won't try and knee you in the face if it stings, Zara. ]
sewayaku: (A CAN OF FIZZ)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-01 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, please do try not to kick me.

[ sounding slightly exasperated already... still, he works quickly. She's not that badly injured, and he has plenty of experience from being around servants who drop things and puppies that break things (and servant puppies who drop and break things, actually.) He moves with a practiced hand, quick and efficient, and it doesn't take him more than a couple of minutes to pluck out the offending glass shards. ]

... I haven't got anything to sanitize the wounds with, so please do clean them when you go home, [ Zara comments, dabbing away any blood on her leg with a handkerchief. ]

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-01 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Judith stays still, letting her thoughts drift as Zara works. It really doesn't hurt, but she's not used to people fussing over her right after meeting them.

It's only after Zara speaks that she responds, unthinking. ]


... I'm not really sure where 'home' is.
sewayaku: (that guy is not ok)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-02 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ once he's done, he nods, tucking the dirtied cloth back away into his ruffles pockets as he stands back up. ]

Ah... Newly arrived? You should have received a card-shaped key that will let you into an apartment in the residential district.

[ ... but where she could be keeping it in that outfit, he doesn't exactly know. His dark eyes flick over her getup once more; then, without a word, he begins to shuffle off his overcoat. That attire is completely inappropriate to be wearing in public - and cold, to boot. Having removed his jacket, he holds it out to her with both hands, one ear flicking back somewhat awkwardly. ]

And take this. You must be terribly cold like that.
Edited 2015-04-02 06:09 (UTC)

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-02 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ That's not exactly "home", is it? A place to live, yes, but when Judith thinks of the concept... no, there's nothing left anymore. There's no point in dwelling on it, then, and thankfully... Zara distracts her from her thoughts.

Judith blinks.

... And makes no move to take the jacket. ]


That's sweet of you, but I'm fine. I'm not cold at all.

[ Not a lie. ]
sewayaku: (lightly grated cheddar)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-02 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
You can't expect me to believe that. You might as well be wearing nothing but your smallclothes.

[ she's not making any move to take it; he's not making any move to put it back on... it's time for a mexican standoff. ]

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-02 01:30 pm (UTC)(link)
If you'd like to feel how warm I am for yourself, you're welcome to.

[ Go ahead, Zara. SHE DARES YOU. ]
sewayaku: (fuck you)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-06 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ what the hell judith

curtly: ]
No.

[ that's so inappropriate... why is this woman so difficult!! ]

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-07 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Then you'll just have to take my word for it. If you're uncomfortable, you're also free not to look at me.

[ KEEP YOUR JACKET. ]
sewayaku: (fuck off)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-08 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
I am trying to be polite, you know. It's indecent to walk around like that.

[ he would know, since he got stuck wearing something like that a few months ago... but he and ciel agreed to take those memories to their graves. ]

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-08 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
... [ Ah. This again.

When Judith speaks again, her voice is just as calm and level as before, but there's just the tiniest spark of something in her gaze when she meets his eyes. ]


If your brand of politeness includes judging me by my appearance, then I'd rather you be rude.
sewayaku: (lightly grated cheddar)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-08 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ here we go ]

I'm hardly judging you by your appearance. I'm only trying to help you dress properly. Between this and injuring your leg... You really must pay more attention to your body.

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-08 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
'Indecent' seems pretty judgmental to me. As for your concern--

[ She reaches out without warning or ceremony, grasping Zara's hand and bringing it first to her torso, just under her chest (smooth, goosebump-free, warm) and then to her bare arm (smooth, goosebump-free, warm). After that, she'll release him. ]

I'm not about to freeze anytime soon. Will that satisfy you?
sewayaku: (FOUR AM IN THE MORNING)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-09 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ sorry, he's not making it to her arm... because as soon as she grabs his arm and makes him touch her midriff, his ears shoot up in shock, and he yanks his hand back as quickly as he can. It's hard to say whether he's embarrassed or just plain shocked. Maybe some uncomfortable place in between. Either way, he's staring at her with a mildly stupefied expression for a second or two. ]

Just -- what-- [ no, compose yourself, skeens, you're the level-headed one, even if this strange woman did just try to make you grope her ] -- Please, behave yourself! I don't know what kind of man you take me for, but we're in public.

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-09 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
I don't take you for any kind of man, because I hardly know you. [ GUESS WHO ISN'T JUDGMENTAL... if slightly annoyed. ] Although I can probably assume a few things if you're shrieking over a woman's torso.

[ Idly, she tilts her head, bending over to adjust a boot. ]

You didn't seem to be willing to take me at my word when I told you I wasn't cold. I improvised. That's all.

[ He's got to snap and leave sooner or later. Judith's well aware of how frustrating she can be. ]
sewayaku: (NOW YOU FUCKED UP)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-10 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
I'm hardly shrieking, [ he retorts defensively, staring at her with narrowed eyes. If he hadn't been judgmental before, he certainly is now. At least she seems to have succeeded in getting him to back off, seeing as he starts throwing his coat back on in a slightly offended manner. ]

I'm sure you could have come up with a better method than invading my personal space.

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-10 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe so, but your coat is where it belongs, so it worked out in the end.

[ Ever nonchalant, and with no further reason to linger in the company of someone who's just radiating hissy bunny vibes, Judith shifts to her feet. There's a brief pause as she cants her head ever so slightly, as though she's listening for something - she is - and then she turns to him with a very small nod. Because as irritated as she is-- ]

Thank you.

[ He didn't have to fuss (he really, really didn't have to). But he'd still offered assistance, she can do that much. ]
sewayaku: (the dank stank)

[personal profile] sewayaku 2015-04-11 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ hissy mode has been activated, it's true... he snatches his cane back up once his jacket is back on, seeming quite ruffled - he doesn't offer more than a dismissive huff at her comment. However, he does seem mildly surprised that she actually thanked him.

What an odd woman. ]


You're quite welcome. [ not without a sting of sarcasm, although he does his best to restrain himself. ]
