![]() 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! |
no subject
THAT SAID, he looks up at the question with a faint "ah" noise of surprise, but nods after a second of hesitation.]
I can protect myself, so you don't need to worry about me! I won't get in the way. [Even though it doesn't look like he has any weapons on him?!]
no subject
That's an enigmatic answer. But I'll take you at your word. You wouldn't get in the way anyway. We're in this together.
[But good. He'll believe that Oz can manage himself. That'll be for the best. He adjusts his grip on his sword, pushing the door open enough to peek out. Okay so far so good. He motions for Oz to follow before slipping out, as silently as possible.]
no subject
Sorry. [But no explanation?!] I'm grateful for that, though - you can count on me!
[But he'll follow out when gestured, keeping silent and in a somewhat hunched position as he walks out. His attention is sharply attuned to his surroundings, listening for both people and bug skittering. Eventually though, he'll freeze, glancing down a corridor.]
Ah— I think I heard something that way.
no subject
Like searching for loved ones and getting out of this without becoming bug food. Lofty ambitions.]
...keep close.
[Heard something. But yes the eternal question, bug or other fleeing person. Though as the sound grows louder, Nesso curses under his breath.] Quick. That way!
[If he can avoid an encounter, he'd be okay with that.]
no subject
This way? All right! [AND OFF HE GOES... Except as soon as he turns down that way, he catches movement from further down the hall and freezes in his tracks.]
Wait, I think someone else is down this way- [WHICH MAKES IT A NO-GO because Oz sure isn't going to lead bugs mcgee over toward a potential noncombatant.] Ah— that way?! [POINTING TO A STAIRCASE.]
no subject
But ah... all right then.] Good, go.
[Nesso frowns.] If you're up for running, maybe we can lead them with us. Somewhere more open would make a better battlefield. [Better for sword swinging, okay? Very important totally crucial.
But if Oz is up for it, Nesso is going to do something stupid like taunt the bugs.]
no subject
I am! If the halls are clear upstairs, that should be good enough, right? [Good enough for dramatic sword swinging...
So he'll set off toward the bottom of the staircase and wait for Nesso to start taunting the bugs so he can start banging on the trashcan nearby or something. HOOLIGANS.]
no subject
[He'll fight where he must, where he has to and adapt. He's a skilled enough swordsman for that, but yes, room for dramatic sword swinging will make his life a great deal easier. So off they go.
Nesso bangs the pommel of his sword against a locker which echoes quite sharply. There good.]
Over here! This way!
[The roar and increased furious skittering that follows is probably evidence that it works.]
no subject
He will also be leaving a noise trail as he goes, banging his hands against the wall and stomping on his way up the stairs.]
Up here, up here—! I bet you can't catch up!
[OZ DON'T TAUNT IT but it's too late for that, he has taunted it, good lord. It sure is coming up after them fast... Oz is scrambling up the stairs as fast as his feet can carry him, but he's also careful to keep as much of an eye on Nesso as he can.]
no subject
[No more tauntingm, tiny blond shonen hero. It's already mad. Nesso catches up with Oz, ushering him out through the door, getting himself enough room to wheel about, bring his sword around to bear, just in time for the bug to come bursting up and out the stairwell.]
no subject
Once they get to a level area, Oz will do his part by blocking the stairwell with a plethora of nifty chains that just seem to spawn from the ether. That way, no bugs can escape and no innocent people can accidentally stumble into a messy battle.
GLANCING OVER AT NESSO THEN LIKE "YOU GOT THIS??"]
no subject
He's going to ready his sword and well, charge straight in. That seems the most direct course, right? Nesso wields his weapon well, so even if the foe is new to him -- really new. He's never seen a giant bug before, so he's not entirely sure how to best take it down. But he'll manage it somehow. Right now he's aiming to disable it, take out some of its legs.] Be vigilant! I don't quite now what will be a lethal blow and what will simply make it angrier!
no subject
But he'll stand back and let captain swords over there do his thing, making sure not to be in the line of attack from either him or his freakish bug opponent. Once a few of its legs are out of commission, he risks a step closer, even with said bug flailing in an angry, freshly-injured way.]
If you aim for its head, that should be enough!
[He... he sure does already know that.]
no subject
The blond's idea is good though. Its head. That makes sense, now that he's got it at least a bit hobbled. So he does just that, throwing all his weight into the next blow to bring his blade slicing through the thick exoskeleton, striking true and sending a delightful little fountain of ichor up and into the hallway.
Another swifted stab in that same spot and it does indeed stop moving.]
no subject
But Oz will... well, actually, no - the gore is pretty gross and he still isn't used to that part at all, and he grimaces openly once the bug drops dead. There's still some vague admiration present, though!! People who can wield swords expertly and with Knightly Intent™ will always get an extra gold star sticker in his books.]
—Are you all right?
[is the bug dead for real... He's stepping his way closer, and the chains blocking the stairwell vanish as he moves.]
no subject
But at least Nesso will keep his priorities straight, doing his best to get that gore off his blade before he turns towards Oz with a grin.] Never better. You?
[He looks to be in one piece, right?] So... you're definitely more capable than you look. [Wait.] No offense. I just... you look unarmed.
[And small and squishy. Are you a witch, Oz? ARE YOU?]
no subject
At the statement, he offers a sheepish smile...]
Sorry for not explaining anything sooner, but it's kind of difficult to do that... [Like, no one needs to deal with BY THE WAY I CAN SUMMON WEIRD CHAINS AND SCYTHES right before going into battle!!] But I won't be a burden! I can fight or defend with my abilities - whatever you need.
[Reiterating again since he has PROOF this time. Proof that he's
a witchself-sufficient!]no subject
[One bug, down. No one else involved in it. Things are going well.] Let's see what we can find on this floor, find out if nayone else is here.
[Sound good? He'll keep his sword out though. Just in case. But umm, one question.] Are you a witch?
[Wizard? Whatever the gender appropriate term would be. His sister was recently accused of being a witch, which has him thinking of Fiona all over again.]
no subject
[He seems vaguely hopeful to hear that! AW YEAH being complimented on teamwork. Very little can top things like this, okay.
But he'll nod in agreement to that suggestion of casing the floor, keeping his guard up and preparing to set off. BUT THEN THERE'S THAT QUESTION, and he freezes up for a second before shaking his head. At least it's better than being asked if he's a grim reaper...]
Oh— no! No, I'm not a witch or anything like that.
no subject
[Very efficient for two guys who just ran into each other in a school hallway. He's starting down the hallway to, glancing over at the blond, nodding.]
I've never seen anything like it. But whatever it is, it seems you wield it well. [So he'll take that as a net win an go with it.]
no subject
—Thanks. [It's rare and a little bizarre to be complimented on his abilities like that, but Oz will TAKE IT with a smile.] Hopefully it won't come in handy more than this one time, though... [no more bugs please.
But with that, Oz glances down the hallway before looking back up at Nesso.] Should we pick up where we left off?
no subject
[Seriously. No more bugs would be excellent. They've got some searching and potential rescuing to do.]
Absolutely. Let's search as quickly as we can manage, just in case that commotion draws unfortunate attention.
no subject
We can split up the rooms, then. I'll check the ones on this side of the hall- [gesture!] -and you can check the ones on that side. Is that all right?
no subject
[Good plan, Oz. Divide and conquer! But don't get too far. Nesso will take off for his designated side, peeking into the room before stepping in proper, sword drawn. But nothing. Empty.
Onto the next one.]
no subject
[NO ISSUES THERE. Oz will work his way down his own line of rooms, making it to the end of the hall without any incident. What shockingly good luck...
Once he's done, he'll turn over to face Nesso, waiting near the hall's end.]
All of the rooms on this side are empty.
