MOONFESTCON 2014 PART I: Embracing Lunacy


It's that time of the season to praise the two moons of Cerealia. As they hang in the sky, looking harmless and moon-like, the robots and CERES staff have gathered together to prepare a fanciful celebration. It's primarily located in the Pleasure District where paper lanterns hang and where fireworks are starting to burst in the sky. Everyone is welcome to dress up and enjoy an evening of fantastic pleasures, platonic or otherwise.

"Good evening! As always, I'm pleased you all can join me. Do enjoy all the beverages being passed around along with the many services we have to offer, all there for your pleasure.

Take time to play in one of our many booths or just slip away and have a crazy evening. The moons bid it. Don't be shy."

//SCENARIOS.EXE
PHASE I
[ 19:00 ] The festival begins promptly with a kick-off speech and a toast from Julius Vincere, encouraging everyone to celebrate beneath the two moons as they light the sky. The weather is crisp and beautiful, leaving them both in full view as their light cascades upon the festival. Around the district, there are several stands full of standard fair food (candy apples/corn dogs/ice cream/deep fried everything), games, and an assortment of many awkward prizes (if you're wondering what these are, do remember you're in the Pleasure District!). Also, there is alcohol everywhere, served to minors and adults alike.
PHASE II
[ 19:45 ] The music is playing loudly beneath the noises of the festival. Anyone approaching the speakers will notice a strange buzzing noise that keeps wavering. Then, the sound changes abruptly to the sound of pained moaning hidden within the song. It grows more pronounced by the second until the lights in the Pleasure District flicker off for a brief second. When they return, there is someone crawling out of the speaker. Your eyes squint, and you can see them briefly, the faint outlines of their form as their screaming escalates, only everyone else seems to be deaf to it. Only you can hear it, and you wonder how and why no one else is reacting. Is it just you? Are you hallucinating? Better get used to that feeling in Cerealia.
PHASE III
[ 20:00 ] Your friendly speaker friend up there doesn't seem to want to go away. (S)he keeps crawling out and disappearing throughout the evening, but it's easier to ignore as Julius takes to the stage. He has a special announcement for all. CERESdate (who sponsored this wonderful festival by the way) has agreed to set up all you vibrant, sexy Cerealia singles with some robot partners for the night. Want to escape? Too late. They're latching on and dragging you out to the dance floor to boogie down. Afterwards, they'll try and drag you to the nearby hotels for some extra loving. You are welcome to run at this point or comply happily.
PHASE IV
[ 21:03 ] Have you escaped the overzealous sex robots? Good, good! Now, it's time for the real fun. The holograms turn from PG images of the stars and surrounding moons and planets to a few fun images of various robot couples caught in absolute bliss. You may spot a clown mask in there or two, reminiscent of those who were running around causing a bit of trouble earlier. The images continue to get distorted as the clowns look like they're stretching their necks out of the image and reaching out towards you. The moaning from before returns.

Doesn't it get you in the mood? If it does and you'd like to find a partner for the night, a few CERESdate robots will be on hand to help fix you up with a partner, organic or otherwise. They're being quite insistent again because they want your credits.
BONUS
[ why:o'clock ] Have you ever been stalked by a condom-dispensing machine? Well, there's a first time for everything! These friendly contraptions are set up all over the Pleasure District, waiting for you to pass by before trailing after you very slowly. At first you don't notice. Every time you turn around, it stands stationery. But the moment you start to move, it just carefully rolls behind you. Watching. Waiting.

[ Bless you, Blake. Pyrrha is far too graceful about delicate matters to cast a sympathetic look to her friend's bow, but she is well aware of how much discomfort this must be causing her. Too concerned to smile, Pyrrha's expression gentles. ]

Yes, that would be best.

[ The pimp plushie is left on the ground for the time being. Pyrrha moves to the left side of the dispenser, motioning for Blake to go to the right. ]

[But they're still kind of eye-catchy and anachronistic, compared to what everyone else from this colony is wearing, in Cynbel's opinion. (They're also a little silly, but nobody needs to hear that, and he'll just think it very loudly.)]

Flashier, perhaps, but also surrounded by others... It's easier to trick the ones that are alone, don't you think?

[He waves a hand, smiling.]

But now you aren't, so hopefully, they will leave you be, sir!

phase ii;;

[ did you just get something to eat at the festival? you did? GREAT because there sure is one yellow flying snitch-like blob thing honing in on whatever snack you're about to eat ]

[ or alternatively, if you've somehow become the owner of something truly awkward and inedible, then it's okay because Timcanpy's still bent on eating it ]


Timcanpy! Stop -- don't eat that!

phase iii;;

Oh no, really, I'd love to dance with all of you -- [ says one Allen Walker, who's somehow surrounded by a couple of overzealous sex robots and looking supremely unruffled. ] But you see, it's just not fair to have to devote anything less than my full attention! It's not what any of you deserve.

[ he looks very Sad About This ] If it's alright with all of you, then you'll have to wait properly for your turn. So maybe you'd all be better off finding partners of your own like that lonely person -- over there!!

[ LOUDLY and wow, is he pointing in the general direction of your character? he is ]

[ Levi had been operating on what could best be described as auto-pilot per his arrival and that numbing directionless wandering hadn't waned since. When someone knocked into him something shook loose and the thousand yard stare was brought back down to the scope of his immediate vicinity. He whips around with the styrofoam cup of a flavored tea that had been the only thing he put in his stomach since coming to this brightly lit, strange place spilled onto the sidewalk. ]

Fuck- ! [ He swears, some vestiges of his default state abrasiveness coming back to him. That was good tea. ]

Some of them, maybe.

[Of course, Blake hadn't forgotten how they had treated the faunus, and how they still felt about them.

But not all of them are like that.

[There was little place in the world for absolutes.]

Not that part, I was talking about the name you used at the end.

[She gives Blake a sort of look, like she just said something rather stupid.]

Have met few good ones. Most are stupid and not to be bothered with. Better to keep to self or to others who are like you.

[Blake moves to the other side, getting as good a grip as she can on the fallen machine. After a count of three, the two are fortunately able to set the machine upright. A few seconds after and the alarm finally seems to stop. Relieved, Blake lets out a deep breath. She couldn't have taken much more of that.]

Let's... not have that happen again.

[She's already had her fill of insufferable shrills. Although this also begs the question.]

What were you doing?

[It just so happens that Viral isn't one for parties, either. Viral probably has no clue what a true party is, but he's not having fun at all. Not a single effort to participate was made; it's as if he was strategically placed there as an equalizer.]

That's no robot, naked ape. Are you comparing your intelligence to a toy?

[He questions in a hunch, arms folded, looking like a proper grouch.]

[ he walked away for that exact reason, your rank ass breath. but now russia's insulting the amount of weight he's put on and you know what, fuck you. it's hard being kidnapped and your home being destroyed -- maybe he's been comfort eating. maybe. still, fuck you.

he's just going to glare at him and wag the apple in his face as they walk to prove his point. his point which is: ]


It's part fruit, you ass. Gettin' all up in my vitamin, uh. Wait, shit, which vitamin were apples again?

[ this guy knows the word impetus but forgets what fruits have which vitamins, okay then. ]

Whoa, super lame. Like, how do you even function?

[ what would you do without cat videos, reaction gifs, and #blessed? ]

Hells yeah, it is. Tried and true method right here, successful as shit since 1776, brah.

[ he says as he knocks the rest of the robot over and throws the robot head up in the air before catching it. yeah, he feels pretty good about himself right now. ]

[ oksure.jpg

and of course he went there, there's no way america won't knock another nation when he's down! especially when said nation is trying to help him! have you even met america? geez, prussia.

anyway, don't mind america as he genuinely loses his shit at prussia's words. he just straight up pauses for a moment, leaning against the decapitated body of the robot and laughs and laughs and laughs. oh my god. prussia hurting him. that's fucking hysterical. ]


Jesus Lord, Prussia, but I don't... You just... Oh my god, that's so funny. Wish I coulda vine'd that shit, dude. Actual Dead Nation Prussia thinks he can somehow like, hurt me? Through actual physical violence? Oh dear lord.

[ and now he's cracking up against, just totally pressing his face against the shoulder of the ex-sexbot and continuing to lose his shit. sorry, dude. ]

Sakura will know what to do when you show it to her. [He can explain to Sakura how this all happened and why Rider's doing this in the first place. ]

By the way, Rider. Did you win any other prizes?

Kagemitsu Kumou | Donten ni Warau

[personal profile] firstcloud 2014-11-07 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ phase I ]

[ He's not exactly superstitious or anything (he's just part of a family who dedicates themselves to protect a shikigami meant to seal an ancient cursed serpent) but he knows that supernatural things exists. Poko, the tanuki on his shoulder, is proof enough of that. And a reason for praising moons is a superstitious one, right?

But still. Kagemitsu enjoys festivals. He just wishes he was here with Botan or Sasaki-dono or Hirari-nii-san. This place is so unfamiliar with all the odd things that he has never seen on a proper Oumi festival, or at any festival during Kamakura, for that matter.

Like these funny shaped things he won at a game. ]


Poko... The future is weird.

[ The little animal seems to nod in agreement. ]



[ phase III ]

[ This is truly frightening. Kagemitsu really wants to get away from these things and he is loudly protesting to the thing to let him go. Poko is hissing angrily at the robot, and claws at it, in attempts to help the child she's been guarding since forever.

Kagemitsu even smashes the hilt of one of the treasured Kumou swords into the robot's face, but it's not reacting. ]


Let go already!

[ He's ready to draw his swords by now, really. ]

[ how is the word "vitamin" even in your vocabulary. ]

C. Like an orange. [ and batting america's hand away from his face: ] You know what an orange is, yes? And your fruit is covered in toffee. That does not count.
bigstick: (Default)

[personal profile] bigstick 2014-11-07 08:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ the same way "fuck off" apparently isn't in yours ]

Really? It's not even like, orange. Where does the C come from?

[ gonna bite his apple again, fine. ]

Shut up, I need it for my low blood sugar. Don't make fun.

[ fucking bullshit but whatever. ]

[ apples are not orange. congratulations. the most patronizing: ]

Is that so? I was certain your blood was sugar.

[ but even if you were diabetic, it's not like he'd be surprised. but you aren't. oh look, alcohol!

he's just going to peel off for a moment to buy a cup of... something that vaguely resembles vodka from one of the nearby vendors. even if america doesn't follow him, russia's back by his side in a moment, like a particularly cheerful, overbearing limpet. ah, much better.
]
bigstick: (Default)

[personal profile] bigstick 2014-11-07 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ america just smiles instead and it's beatific. ]

Aw, are you callin' me sweet, big guy? You shouldn't! [ and then his face drops like a meteor ] Like, no. You really shouldn't. It's disgusting. You're disgusting.

[ and then back to eating his apple. he'll weirdly enough, keep walking alongside russia even when he goes to get the booze and then when they go back to walking along the fair. it is pretty creepy and if you asked america, he would agree with the limpet analogy. a lot.

that said, this doesn't stop him from... casually sniffing at russia's drink and making a face. ]


Jesus, what is that? A hundred proof?

[ oh well, he is just going to casually snatch that cup out of russia's hand to take a sip and then politely put it back in his hand. you're welcome.

also do you really need booze to hang out with america? do you? so rude. ]
nyet: <user name="nyet"> — ᴅɴᴛ (Default)

[personal profile] nyet 2014-11-07 08:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ doesn't everyone? ]

Disgusting, Америка? [ SPECIAL PRONUNCIATION, JUST FOR YOU. ] That's not very nice.

[ he's kind of enjoying the theatrics, though.

when america takes (and returns) his drink, his smile doesn't falter, but he does slowly rotate the cup so the place where america's lips touched is now facing away from him. then he drinks.
]

Hmm? It's very mild to me.

[ look russia not everyone can drink vodka like it's water okay ]
bigstick: (Default)

[personal profile] bigstick 2014-11-07 09:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ fuckoff.jpg

also don't say his name like that, with your dirty ex-commie mouth. like, gross. so, sarcastically: ]


Oh, I'm sorry. I'll make sure to share my crayons next time.

[ ugh, you're such a jerk. you're a jerk with high alcohol tolerance who really should just be taken out back and shot. wait, lbr you totally were at least once. ]

Yeah, but that's because you're like a... fuck, what's it called-- Bear. A fuckin' bear with all that fat, alcohol wouldn't even slow you down for a second.

[ he shrugs and true story: already burning off the alcohol from the one sip of alien booze he drank. hell yeah. ]

[ ignoring that fat comment he's not fat he's big-boned

also wow??? wow. at least when he was taken out back behind the shed he didn't cry like a capitalist little bitch.
]

Да, that is my national animal.

[ is america trying to insult him by complimenting him? is that how this is going to work? ]

[Everyone can probably agree that Shinji was. Special, to put it nicely. Sakura would be able to picture that scene pretty clearly at least.]

That's... one way to put it, yes. [A REALLY BLUNT WAY, even if she more or less agrees. It just makes the whole situation that much more uncomfortable to her though.] I don't understand why anyone would have customs like that, but as long as we're safe up here, that's what's important.

[ He's staying away from the food but he sure did get hold of something weird and he has no idea what it is.

His tanuki friend, Poko, swipes at the yellow blob and there's a grrr from her throat. Kagemitsu is too busy being confused over the weird thing to consider it a threat at the moment, but the spirit animal seem to be wary enough for the both of them. ]

You can call me Elza.

[He ends up laughing, though. Well, being called 'lion-san' isn't so bad. He could think of worse things.]

I'm pretty sure that I'm not magic. I'm just a regular lion... but I'm guessing that you're not familiar with ones like me.

[ He's no one threatening, really. He carries swords, sure, but they're not what Kagemitsu is focusing on. Instead, he's focusing on the tanuki up ahead of him.

The 20 year old clan head trips over a stone, and flops not very elegantly to the ground. The animal stops and looks at him. It might always look as if she's frowning. When he sits up and she determines that her human is alright, she traipses up to the stranger to investigate.

Kagemitsu just feels awkward. Poko does not. ]
