//event005.EXE Learning is Fundamental! Let's play CERESLearn 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. "Greetings and welcome to Cerealia! It's nice of you to join us at last. As you can see, we're just about to get started! Here are the instructions: ♥ Choose your subject of choice. They include things like medicine, math, CERES economics, CERES history, fun facts about Julius, engineering, and science! ♥ Choose your tutor. You can hire Astor, Hilda, or UN-Zippy ♥ They'll teach you slowly, deliberately, sensually. Then after that, they'll drill you hard and without stopping. ♥ Just when you think you've had enough, they'll quiz you all over until you're sweating and panting. ♥ For those of you who pass, you'll be welcomed well into Cerealia and be given a free voucher for a McCERES Mildly Content meal. Please enjoy!"

//SCENARIOS.EXE PHASE I [ xxxx ] Once you choose your lesson and your tutor, you will be transported to a classroom where you and a few other players who decide to choose the same lesson will sit with your tutor after school, getting knowledge taught to you by someone who seems more intent on learning what's under your clothes than filling your head with knowledge. They will be awkwardly stretching, dropping pencils by 'accident' on the floor, and bending down slowly to pick them up. Certain things might be spilling out of their clothes. Awkward things. They will breathe down your neck and make sure you are well-versed in their anatomy by the end of the lesson. Fortunately, it won't last long as their bodies start to flicker erratically. PHASE II [ xxxx ] Just as things begin to escalate, the flickering will grow intense until your tutor will start to morph before your eyes. What takes their place is something that is anything but friendly. And yes, it will continue to breathe down your neck and speak in a sweet, soft, alluring voice while reaching out with its 'hands' to try and touch you. This will be your cue to run through the halls of the school while That Thing chases you in every single direction imaginable. There will be others joining you as everyone starts bolting out of their classrooms. PHASE III [ xxxx ] Feeling tired already? Well, don't stop and rest now! For those who successfully murder their own tutor, they will get their food voucher and a lovely welcome into CERES. You've officially passed! Everyone will be allowed to mingle around the game room in the CERES Research Tower before being directed into McCERES just across the street. For those who were already in the colony, you will also receive a voucher and directions to McCERES at the end of the game in case you want to go meet up with the newcomers there or just eat some artery-killing fast food. PHASE IV [ xxxx ] For those who get eaten by That Thing or don't pass their quizzes and upset their tutors, they will be forced to endure the Price of Failure. This means being sent to the gym with the other 'failures' to endure a painfully slow and erotic striptease by UN-Zippy. Once that is over, they will then be logged out and allowed to have their complimentary McCERES voucher. BONUS [ whyo'clock ] Congratulations on surviving CERESLearn! Here's your complimentary voucher for a free Mildly Content Meal at McCERES. This month's special is also the McKnight Burger. Characters are immediately invited to take a load off and enjoy some good ol' fashion fast food of questionable origin. Those who decide to order and eat here will also get a special toy included inside their Mildly Content Meals.

//RUN.EXE 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!

this is kayes fault

...

[Shirou falls silent for a moment trying to process what Rider's saying. Back then he was so broken that he couldn't even remember Rider's name. He expresses his uneasiness by grimacing. That isn't a particularly fond memory for both him and Sakura.]

It had to be done. [ This is strange though. Why does Rider remember things differently? His memories match up more accurately with Sakura's. Despite this fact being true Shirou can still feel some gaps in his memory. What is he even forgetting?

What is it?

What is it?

What is it?
]

...Sakura I--[He wanted to tell her that they'd be fine. That's all in the past now, but he just gave himself the worst headache imaginable.]

Sorry.

[viperess]

[Their reactions are what she expected and she stiffens at them, almost wishing the topic hadn't been breached. It doesn't matter to her in all honesty, as far as her lacking memory. The fact that Sakura is safe is enough for her. What she cares is that they care.]

Please, don't be concerned. It simply means I was summoned here from a different point in time than the two of you. It's no different than being summoned into the Grail War. That said, if wearing regular clothes would make you two more comfortable I will be willing to try it.

[springful]

I suppose that's one way of looking at it... [Even if it still leaves a lot of questions, but really, there's a ton of questions already. Namely how any of them even got here, but. Honestly, Sakura's glad enough that she's not alone here. She gives a small smile.]

Oh, I'm fine with whatever you wear regardless. I agree with what Senpai said earlier though. You looked very beautiful in regular clothes.

[projections]

If that's the case, I won't concern myself with it too much. [He pulls himself together and stops worrying. What's in the past is in the past. They have to focus on what's ahead of them.]

You have no objections to it? That's good then. Sakura should be able to find something nice for you.

[He's not qualified to look for women's clothes.]

[viperess]

[Sakura's comment catches her off-guard, not quite expecting to be called beautiful, but she tries to bounce back quickly.]

I'll leave it up to you then, Sakura. [She doesn't see the need to wear anything different in particular, other than for blending in purposes, but if Sakura and Shirou are insistent then there's no need to turn them down. At least she won't have to eat.] I suggest we save the rest of this discussion for another time. There may still be more enemies ahead.
