![]() 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
[THE CIRCLE OF LIFE
or boredom, at least?! Apparently they're on the road to becoming Umineko witches.]
no subject
Indeed! But going around in circles is even more boring, so it would be best to find something else to do before it goes that far, don't you think?
[He shrugs, waving a hand as he keeps walking. Almost there!!]
no subject
You do have a point! You must have a lot of practice in combating boredom.
[Is it because you are always bored, Cynbel...!! But Oz seems to notice that they're drawing close, since he'd gotten a good look at the map, and he bounces excitedly to his toes.]
Oh—! It's right up ahead, isn't it? Is that it?
no subject
Oh, not at all! I just have practice dealing with boring people.
[The other kind is Apollo!! Cynbel is actually good at entertaining himself in ways that don't always endanger innocent people, thank you very much.
Cynbel turns his head to watch where he's going, and they're almost on top of the exit by then. He stops, double-checking the map before dismissing it for good.]
Yes, this is it! From here, it's very simple to leave.
no subject
Ah, really? That sounds like some bad luck.
[Poor Cynbel, stuck dealing with boring people when he is so far from boring...! But he'll clap his hands together at that, looking quite delighted. TIME TO LEAVE THIS SHITTY SCHOOL.]
Are you going to come?
no subject
Of course! Why would I stay and put myself in further danger?
[He does not want to be bug food, and he's no hero. He's totally going to bail.]
no subject
Just wondering! Let's get out of this place, then.
[He's already done about as much clearing and searching as he can manage, anyway. ...And if he does get the dumb shonen urge to jump back in - well, he knows the way out now!]
no subject
Now, to leave, you just step in, and—!
[He steps into the log out spot, and before he can finish his sentence, he's gone. Better move fast or get left behind, Oz!]
no subject
BUT OH, MAGIC. MAGIC?? Oz glances around briefly in Ye Olde Confusion for a second.]
Ah— wait! Just step in?! [STEP IN TO WHAT?? He's gonna look like a doof because there only seems to be air here!! But he'll give it a try anyway and-
pop out in Cerealia right next to Cynbel.]
...Oh.
no subject
But man, for some kind of gardening badass, Oz is pretty dorky. Cynbel laughs when Oz appears, shaking his head at his expression.]
You see?
[Cynbel moves backwards, turning to face Oz.]
I told you it was simple!
no subject
It is! That's a lot easier than I thought it would be. It was just like stepping through a door...
[Oz is tempted to wave his hand through the air he just appeared from, but luckily his dumb dorkishness does not extend (all the time) to things that might end up dragging him back into weird hell vortexes.]
no subject
It is! It's much better than when I arrived, and I couldn't leave at all on my own. They play these terrible pranks on every new group, and it's getting to be quite old.
[Only somebody used to death being a real stake in "pranks" would call it that, but hey, Cynbel calls it like he sees it.]
no subject
Every group? [...] How many have there been?
[That actually seems kind of concerning, and his expression reflects the sentiment.]
no subject
Since I arrived?
[He tilts his head, looking away from Oz as he tries to remember.]
Oh, once every so many weeks, and it's been... Over a month since then, now that I think on it. That's at least three groups, counting my own and yours.
no subject
He definitely looks surprised to hear that, though. His last stint was just a little over a week, so comparatively, Cerealia's average stay seems a lot longer.]
Three, at least? And at a rate like that... [HM.] It's a little more than I was expecting.
no subject
There are a few dozen of us around now, I think.
[He stares at Oz, confused. How can you even have a vague idea of this kind of thing before you hear it? It's nothing like he's experienced before, so he doesn't see how Oz could have before coming here.]
But what were you expecting, then? I had none myself, considering I barely knew what I was getting into in the first place.
no subject
I'm not exactly sure what I was expecting, but something... shorter, maybe? I came from a place that wasn't my home either, but I was only there for a week. It sounds like I'll be here for a lot longer.
[He seems to be taking it in stride, though...]
no subject
[Cynbel should be less surprised, considering he makes a habit of slipping through reality back home like it's nothing, but the surprise is all over his face before he thinks better of it. Too late now.]
That's amazing! And you left within a week? It would be much better if we could do such a thing here, but I doubt we'll be so lucky.
no subject
[Or when they'd be going... there... so his interdimensional travels are actually just as much of a mess in jamjars as they are in his home world. WHAT FUN.]
But I guess a week would be too little a time frame if they're talking about our worlds being gone...
no subject
Ah, yes, there's always that.
[He hadn't forgotten, but he'd been trying not to think about it for a while. This is a harsh reminder.]
And we must consider that your time in the world you came from last may have been cut short due to all this destruction, as well.
no subject
But he's looking a little discomforted by that, because it means Alice would have been megamurdered in two worlds at the same time somehow?! It's a good thing he's got one foot firmly anchored in the sea of denial so he can continue refusing the idea that their worlds are really gone.]
That might have something to do with it, but the people who brought us there more or less said that they didn't need us anymore.
[For what reason, he's not sure. Presumably because they all turned out to be rebels who mowed the game fence down with a tank and then stopped their brainwashed comrade from going on a mass shooting spree...]
It's suspicious timing.
no subject
Are you suggesting the people who took you to that place are involved in this place, as well?
[Because that would be scary and shady, and Cynbel's only comfortable with one of those at a time.]
no subject
I never really met the people who were responsible for that, so I don't think I'd be able to answer well. [This said with a look that seems both concerned and marginally agitated...] But I'll be paying close attention just in case.
no subject
It's rather concerning, even just as a possibility... It would mean, at least, that the people in charge here are outright lying about the state of our worlds.
[And that will put them on Cynbel's blacklist, effective immediately.]
no subject
But he doesn't say one way or another whether he agrees with that, even though it's pretty obvious that he has his own suspicions. Instead, he just says:]
Will you let me know if you find out any information? I'll tell you, too.
