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
[ xx:xx ] 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
[ xx:xx ] 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
[ xx:xx ] 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
[ xx:xx ] 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
[ why:o'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.

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!

Alright, here we go!

[ With a big grin he aims the device at the paper, presses the button again, and...

.. there's another beep. Not like they know what it means though, so Shinpachi looks so proud of himself that he figured it out. Look how amazing he's being in front of this kid, he's going to get somewhere in life alright..!

Except then.. he glances down to the device.. ]


.. y'know, I wonder how you can look up the picture now.. [ WHY IS LIFE SO HARD AND UNUSUALLY CRUEL. ]
harepiece: (please let it be cake)

[personal profile] harepiece 2014-12-13 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[So not only did they not take a picture, probably, but now they're going to waste like 10 minutes staring at the CereVice in confusion trying to find a picture that doesn't even exist...

See this is why they each need babysitters, and probably some sort of class about adjusting to futuristic technology. OTHERWISE THIS HAPPENS. THIS RIGHT HERE. Now they're stuck looking like morons, wow!!]


—I used a cell phone once, and there was - a folder! I think that's what she called it? The pictures went to a folder that was... on a chip? Oh, but I don't remember how we got to the folder... She was always the one to do that! [LOUD GRUMBLING.]
nostatus: (we're loving stronger)

[personal profile] nostatus 2014-12-15 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
.. y'know, I think there was stuff called chips here before.. it wasn't half that bad.

[ TALKING ABOUT TWO DIFFERENT KINDS OF CHIPS ENTIRELY. Although let's be real, do you really think it's beyond Shinpachi to try and eat the other kind of chip too.. probably not..

His thoughts are totally wandering off to him wanting to have more of those again now though. Thanks, Oz. ]
harepiece: (a lovely tune)

[personal profile] harepiece 2014-12-16 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
[WELL OZ SURE DOESN'T KNOW what a chip actually looks like, nor is he aware of the fact that there is a separate food called a chip!? He just looks briefly surprised for a second before his eyes drop back to his CereVice.]

You can eat them?

[?? Technology is edible?! This is a great new discovery!!

Also a dangerous one, probably. Now there are two people in Cerealia who may or may not eat a computer chip if given the chance when there shouldn't even be one.]


That's a little surprising... I thought chips were made out of metal like the rest of the phone.
nostatus: (and loving stronger tonight)

[personal profile] nostatus 2014-12-17 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Gil is absolutely going to hate Shinpachi at this rate.. sorry, fellow bad luck with animals dude, but he didn't mean to cause this one at least. You technically can't blame him after Oz chokes on an actual microchip..!! ]

Yeah, 'course you can eat 'em! They're not even made out of metal or anything, I asked about it and apparently they're.. uh.. potatoes, or whatever? Something like that. But they're really crunchy and they taste so good that once you have one, you can't stop! [ He looks so happy about it too.. Shinpachi could talk about food all day.

It's much better than fiddling around with a dumb device that hates him anyway. ]
harepiece: (oh.....)

[personal profile] harepiece 2014-12-18 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
[GILBERT DOESN'T NEED MORE HEART ATTACKS but this is basically his lot in life anyway, so what's one more... At least Oz probably won't actually choke, even though it's pretty much guaranteed now that he'll at least stick one in his mouth?!]

Potatoes! These things run on something like that? [He shakes the device a little, like he expects to hear a potato rolling around inside or something.]

I've never had anything like that before, though... Where did you get it? You didn't just break open your phone, did you?

[Even Oz knows that'll probably break the shit out of it, and he sure doesn't want to be without potential communication networks.]
nostatus: (some nights i wish that my lips)

[personal profile] nostatus 2014-12-21 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, they just came in bags or whatever? It took a while to open 'em.

[ By which he means that he probably tugged on it for a long time but PLASTIC NEVER GIVES WAY EVEN TO THE FIERCEST OF MUSCLES.. so then he probably cut it open with his sword.. it was an Adventure, that's for sure. This is why you don't leave samurai alone in modern day places. ]

But if you think there's one in here too, it might be easier to just break this one open instead? 'specially if you're impatient.
harepiece: (lookin so good)

[personal profile] harepiece 2014-12-21 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd rather have a whole bag now and save the one in here for an emergency.

[AN EMERGENCY PHONE POTATO......

Why have these two been left alone at all, look at what's happened in the like 5 minutes they've been in unbabysat company. But this seems like a legitimate idea to him?! Like, who wouldn't want to have an extra food stash on hand like that.]


Where do you get the bags? Just... in stores? Can you show me where you got yours? [potatoquest 2k14]
nostatus: (and you can see it in their eyes)

[personal profile] nostatus 2014-12-23 11:28 am (UTC)(link)
[ It's okay, Oz.. one day Sano will find out about the things Shinpachi told Oz and despite the fact that Shinpachi didn't mean it badly, he'll probably still get punched over it. Such is the life of having the best friends he does.. ]

Sure! [ He grins at least.. SO EXCITED ABOUT POTATOES. Or more like excited about good food, and it doesn't take much for Shinpachi to call food "good".. especially not now he's experienced the horror of creamed corn. ]

C'mon, follow me! You have two feet you can use to walk, right?

[ Not that he says no to piggyback rides exactly.. he carries around Heisuke all the time and he's pretty much ten years older than Oz.. almost.. ]
harepiece: (MY FRONDS)

[personal profile] harepiece 2014-12-24 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
I walked up to you with my two feet, didn't I?

[GOD, SHINPACHI. Though it's not like people don't carry Oz all over the place like a sack of (hAH) potatoes either, so he probably wouldn't protest to a piggyback ride in the end...

For now though, he's content to at least be semi-useful!!]


Just show the way and I'll follow!

[Also excited?! The future sure is full of great things...]
