![]() ViViD's usual worlds are unfortunately down for maintenance. While CERES' programmers work on getting it back up and running, all new entrees this round will be going through a different level than usual. Only a single world is accessible at the moment, a simple one entitled 'CERESLearn.' "What the $%@& is this?" you must be thinking. Well, it's simple! It's a study program, of course! CERES' advanced AI technology is here to make sure you learn and that you learn sexily. Whether or not you pay attention to the actual content is up to you, the player. Please enjoy it while it lasts. They're here to teach you a variety of subjects and also to make you feel vaguely uncomfortable all over. New arrivals and those logging into ViViD will first find themselves in a classroom with a new operator greeting them rather than Vidia.

Welcome to CEREALIA's latest intro post. For your convenience, we have compiled a post detailing everyone's usual arrival experience (which is not entirely applicable this round for reasons stated above^) and a FAQ that should explain everything in more detail. Please read them thoroughly before playing. Thank you! |
phase iii
So when he hears a term that weird, he can't help but blink and turn to look at the guy who used it. ]
Hah? [ Is this milkshake so important for this other guy to sound so intent on getting one.. ] What's that s'posed to be?
[ Do they even have that here.. is it some weird otherwordly thing.. teach Shinpachi the ways of junk food, America. ]
no subject
What... what is...
[ have a slow turn of the head as REALLY INTENSE eyes fixate on you, shinpachi. and then he'll just... slowly approach, reaching out of his hands to grab shinpachi by the shoulders. you brought this upon yourself!! ]
My good man, have you never had yourself a milkshake?
no subject
Uh.. no. [ In case that wasn't obvious yet.. ] What, am I s'posed to have had one? I dunno if they even had that stuff in Zelien, let alone back home..
no subject
Of course you're supposed to have had one, ya loon! They're only the greatest and most tastiest treat this side of the Atlantic! [ wrong side of the ocean, dumbass ] You're gonna have one right now.
[ it's polite to ask, america! and yet! hey, shinpachi, you're now going to be dragged towards the counter of the mcceres ]
no subject
[ Pointing at the McCeres.. because it clearly looks so evil and all. Terribly dangerous. But Shinpachi just has experience with drinking not turning out the way you expected, okay, he's being a little cautious here. ]
If I'm gonna try one, I at least don't want it to mess with my head or whatever! [ And he doesn't mean brainfreeze. ]
no subject
[ as in, on this planet. optimism, yeah! he's still dragging shinpachi forward. ]
Bro, I give you my 100% guarantee that this will be a regular ol' shake. Milk, ice cream, sugar. Probably some vanilla extract. Ice, maybe. Simple things. Can you live with that?
[ and now they're at the counter and the lady behind it is waiting for their order. ]
no subject
Especially since he doesn't want to cause a fuss in the middle of the line. He gets how these things work now. ... Somewhat. ]
Fine, fine, I'll live with it. [ He gestures at the lady at the counter. ] You order it though, since ya seem like such an expert.
[ i'm from the 1860s and what is appropriate macdonalds behaviour.. even his bare muscles may be enough to scare people off. no shirt, no service!! ]
no subject
Yeah, yeah. Can do, bro. [ waves a hand dismissively even though...
yes. yes he is ordering-- ] One medium vanilla milkshake, my good lady.
[ and yes, yes he is waiting but...
ah, yes. yes he is making shinpachi pay for it. casually gestures to the cashier and looks at shinpachi for him to pay. the cashier is totally looking at shinpachi for it too. whoops. ]
no subject
That's totally the thoughts going through Shinpachi's mind at this interaction, and it's pretty obvious. He stares between America and the cashier as if either of them suddenly decided to grow an extra head, his jaw slowly dropping open. As if he doesn't get what's going on here at all.. ]
W-- why are you lookin' at me like that?!
[ Sure, he's broke, but it's also just that he doesn't get the junk food places' system yet, so he has no idea that this is the moment you're supposed to be paying... ]
no subject
america just... casually gestures to the cashier with a look that basically says "shinpachi, you're an idiot" ]
You have to pay for the milkshake, dude.
no subject
.. well, it still doesn't help a whole lot. He just glances between the cashier and America like this still is an impossible situation, and that's because.. well, it is. Just for different reasons.
So after a moment or two he gets a little closer to America, whispering to him-- ]
I'm... I'm broke. [ He's not even lying, this is just a 24/7 reality for Shinpachi Nagakura. ]
no subject
Gaaa--
[ oh. wait. not gay. he'll just blink once or twice before pushing shinpachi away and facing the register himself. hm, thinking about it... he kind of remembers something they told him earlier, during the power point. ]
Ma'am, you just recently filled a managerial position, yeah?
[ she's frowning at them now but she nods. ]
And... managers totally get free food, right?
[ a bit hesitant now but she does nod ]
K, right. I'm that manager and let me get the shake for free.
[ AND NOW A VERY DISGRUNTLED SIGH as she stomps off to get shinpachi's shake. america just grins, holding up a hand for shinpachi to high five. ]
Up top, yo.
no subject
What is this guy. What is this power. This is amazing, Shinpachi is totally telling himself to befriend this guy since it means free food. And who doesn't love free food? People who don't know how to truly live life, that's who. ]
Man, you really managed that?! You need to tell me your tricks, I could get free food an--
[ .. okay, slowly his eyes are moving up to that hand to notice it just.. hanging there.
That's.. nice for you, America. Great. Get back to Shinpachi in about a hunderd years or so when high fives will have caught on in his time. ]
.. uh, wait, what top're we talking about?
no subject
whatever!!
anyway, he blinks in confusion at shinpachi's confusion before sighing. then he reaches out to grab shinpachi's arm and slap his hand to his. ]
That, dude, is a high five. A show of excitement between one friend to another. You lift your hand, you slap hands, you bond. Do you not want to bond, dude? Do you not want to bond?
no subject
[ Don't be so defensive about that, Shinpachi.. are you truly that desperate to defend your endearing character trait or what. But suddenly he does look oddly Determined about this high fiving business, look what kind of monster you've created, America. ]
I'll slap hands with everyone if that's all these modern guys do..!
no subject
Hell yeah, that's totally what we do! We high five all the time! It's how you show support and friendship in the quickest and most efficient fashion. Just high five and bam, bonding.
[ there's kind of a manic look of friendship in america's eyes now but you know, that's pretty normal for him. ]
Come on, dude. Let's high five!
[ UP TOP, YO. ]
no subject
There we go! Then that means we're friends too now, right? [ Isn't that a little overly friendly, Shinpachi.. then again, America paid for his drink. Sort of. That's what friends do, he's pretty sure. ]
Heh, you're right, it really goes a hell of a lot faster with these.. uh.. "high fives"!
no subject
It totally does, dude!
[ it would be creepy if it wasn't america, shinpachi. ]
Right? I love high fives, they make everything seem so... great! In fact, my name's America, man! What's yours?
no subject
Nagakura Shinpachi-- ah, guess it'd be Shinpachi Nagakura for you western guys, though. [ At least he caught on to that much.. gold star for effort. ] Nice to meet you, man.
no subject
Shinpachi, huh? I can dig it. [ and oh good timing because FINALLY.
finally.
there's the milkshake. america's face lights up as the very exasperated employee who just witnessed this dumb conversation holds it out to them. ]
Duuude, milkshake time! Do it!
no subject
America honestly doesn't even have to tell him to do it. He's already picking up the milkshake, ripping off the top, drinking it that way since it's how REAL MEN DO IT, REAL MEN DON'T NEED STRAWS. Except it's a terrible idea with how cold the milkshake is, and exactly five seconds afterwards you can see all symptoms of brainfreeze starting to set in for Shinpachi.
He lets out a groan, bending forward.. ]
Wh-- what is this?! [ A milkshake has defeated the mighty captain of the Shinsengumi.. what a battle. ]
no subject
oh but... america reaches a hand out helplessly as shinpachi immediately removes the top. no, you're supposed to use the straw! but he can't really help because oh, down it goes.
that was a dumb thing to do, shinpachi. even america knows that. ]
You got yourself a brainfreeze, bro. You're supposed to drink it slowly, with the straw. It all went to your head instead of your stomach!
no subject
Thankfully it starts to fade a little soon enough, and he straightens himself again with a frown on his face. Modern food is more dangerous than he thought. ]
Oi. Who would invent some kinda food that could cause people pain? That just sounds like a mean trick! [ BRING HIM THE INVENTOR OF THE MILKSHAKE, HE WILL FIGHT THEM. ]
no subject
Don't blame the food for your failures. [ you INSULTED the milkshake, you HEATHEN. ] Take another sip, slower and with the straw.
[ this guy takes his fast food very seriously, he'll have you know ]
no subject
[ He doesn't even say "ouch" like a normal person.. he's way too used to getting cut open with a sword and all, this is nothing anymore at this rate. It sounds more startled than anything else, and he looks at America like he just dared to insult his puppy that just turned into roadkill. ]
Why are you hitting me?! You wanna take this outside?! [ Brainfreeze does not contribute to Shinpachi's intelligence at moments like these.. not at all.. it only makes him more impulsive.
(America also probably spilled like, half the milkshake across the floor with that slap.) ]
