Mystery Science Theatre -3000


Welcome to Cerealia's latest attraction. In an effort to branch into other forms of entertainment, CERES has been slowly patching together films from various worlds to show in its brand new movie theater. So, grab a friend, sit back, and enjoy the newest batch of imported films with a nice bucket of popcorn. As you'll notice from the long line outside, it's the latest rage in the colony, and those tired of the same virtual battles in ViViD are eager to enjoy a little change in scenery.

For those eager to participate, you will find yourself being lead into the lobby by one of the many robotic theater employees. Showing today are five special films, and in the lobbies are various screens advertising them through the movie's digital avatar, Mnemosyne. Allow her to take you on a virtual tour of CERES' finest theatrical offerings.

(( P.S. no actual actors/actresses appear in any of the films. It's all done through advanced CGi-technology and voice acting. ))
"GOOD EVENING, MOVIE-GOERS. I AM MNEMOSYNE, YOUR GUIDE FOR THIS EVENING.

AS YOU CAN SEE, WE HAVE SEVERAL CONCESSIONS FOR YOU. PLEASE PARTAKE IN THE CONCESSIONS, BUT DO NOT MAKE A MESS. THE THEATER ROBOTS HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED TO TAKE ACTION FOR LITTERING.

TONIGHT'S FILMS ARE THE MUCH LAUDED AND CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED FILMS HAND-PICKED BY JULIUS VINCERE:

MY PETITE EQUESTRIAN EXPERIENCE RATED A

LARGE ADVENTURER 7 RATED B

THE RETALIATORS: ERA OF RADICALON RATED C

DECEASE HARDER II RATED D

YARD-DOOR PEOPLE OF QUESTIONABLE MORALS RATED Z

PLEASE MAKE YOUR SELECTION AT THE BOOTHS IN THE FRONT OF THE LOBBY THEN FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS TO THE APPROPRIATE THEATER. THANK YOU AND ENJOY YOUR EVENING."

//SCENARIOS.EXE
THEATER I
[ 00:00 ] MY PETITE EQUESTRIAN EXPERIENCE - RATED A

Advertised as a delightful tale of ponies discovering magic and friendship, this is a must-see! For adults that is. The ponies are killed within the first ten minutes, and then the rest of the run time is filled with a celebratory orgy of Roman-esque proportions. There are no mentions of ponies after the initial scene. They are neither seen nor mourned nor heard from. There are only naked, gyrating bodies as far as the eye can see.

If you manage to sit through the horror long enough, you will notice a certain something in between the moaning. Is that your face on one of the protags? Is it a beloved family member or a friend? You will find that spliced between the scenes are cherished and innocent childish memories now being soiled by passionate cries of pleasure. Enjoy the new memory, your poor, sweet summer child. This will only be visible to the viewer himself/herself.
THEATER II
[ 00:00 ] LARGE ADVENTURER 7 - RATED B

A touching tale of dealing with loss and more loss. This film is about a giant robot and his pet human that gets eradicated in the Third Robotic Genocide, leaving behind just a human carcass. The giant robot clings to the carcass and cries robotic tears until finally he chucks the carcass into a river full of carcasses and decides to go on a deep quest in search of cheese.

But spliced between this tale of woe, viewers will see images of themselves caught in a romantic memory. A first kiss, perhaps? A first love-making session? A first crush? A desired one will also have their face molded on top of all the carcasses as they flow away. This will only be visible to the viewer himself/herself.

THEATER III
[ 00:00 ] THE RETALIATORS: ERA OF RADICALON - RATED C

Agent Dick Angry takes it upon himself to assemble a team of miscreant aliens to invade the hell out of "Planet Earth." The aliens include Zorn, an intelligent toaster; Crisis, a blue-skinned beauty that turns purple when she's aroused; Trish, a rogue miniature ficus with a criminal record; and General Cerealia, a handsome, ripped man who beats evil-doers with his laptop and who looks suspiciously like CERES' programmer, Elias.

This adventurous romp will feature the tragic memories of death interweaving with the destruction of the "Planet Earth." Those who attend will see first-hand the memories of their own worlds slowly being demolished before their eyes and all their loved ones screaming in agony. Then it'll loop itself again and again for the last hour of the film. Enjoy! This will only be visible to the viewer himself/herself.
THEATER IV
[ 00:00 ] DECEASE HARDER II - RATED D

Jack McJack is a cop who is having none of your shit. In this action film, he will ride around on a velociraptor and go around punching evil-doers and detonating them with land mines. If you want all the violence in the world, this is the film for you. Watch as every second is filled with pointless explosions and every curse word in all the known languages in Cerealia.

Of course, spliced between every action scene will be every embarrassing moment of your life being played out for you and only you. Or is it? Start sweating and looking in every direction as you begin to wonder if everyone else can see that time you tripped and fell on your senpai almost kissing him (sacre bleu D= !)
BONUS - THEATER V
[ why:o'clock ] YARD-DOOR PEOPLE OF QUESTIONABLE MORALS - RATED Z

This is a touching film about tenderness and coming together to overcome obstacles and achieve greatness. The Yard-Door people run into danger when an evil megalord starts polluting the air with negative feelings. The Yard-Door people must band together and save the world through kindness. They will go and help their neighbors get across the street, rake up leaves from their lawns, donate canned food to the poor, and collect toys for children who do not have any.

While this film will draw tears from your eyes, you will see happy memories. The happiest that can be mustered. They will be spliced in with the scenes in the movie, occurring side-by-side with all the smiles and fuzzy feelings leaking off the screens. This will only be visible to the viewer himself/herself.

Also, beware! This film contains the angriest of Theater Cleaning Robots. Dropping anything on the floor will result in a bit of a flogging with a wooden paddle and a robot calling you a dirty slut and claiming that you like it. Yes, BDSM robots will not take your bad behavior. You better bend over and start apologizing for being such a filthy, little theater-goer.

Riku | Kingdom Hearts

[personal profile] guidetoblivion 2015-03-07 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
( III )

[Riku exits the theatre just after the last act of the story hits, though how he saw any of that through given that he watched the movie with his blindfold on shall forever remain a mystery. He's already lived twice through the destruction of Destiny Islands – once for real on the night he'd left his home behind, even though he hadn't known what was happening back then, once in Castle Oblivion. He refuses to sit though through another reminder of what he will never forgive himself for.

(He can still hear Zexion's voice echoing, Maybe it's your own actions that you've forgotten. You destroyed your home!)

He shakes his head, as he buries his hands in his coat pockets – he isn't going to let a simple movie shake him this easily.]


...Get a grip.

[Though he does wonder... how in the light's name had they known?]


( V )

[If the movie makes Riku cry, nobody will ever know – darn dat blindfold for hiding whatever thoughts he might have of that story. The memories he keeps seeing leave him with a bitter-sweet feeling though, the are of better days, of before, of times when it was Sora and Kairi and him and their play island, before he had so utterly screwed up. Before he'd decided that he would forfeit any chance of going back in order to reclaim the remaining pieces of Sora's memory that Roxas had gathered within him, if that was what it takes.

(It hasn't yet, but it just might. Roxas is strong.)

He doesn't notice hitting over his sit neighbor's drink while drawing his arms in so he can rub at his temples, not until the air whistles due the incoming paddle, allowing him to dodge the first swing out of his seat. He's more prepared for the second one, blocking it with his Shield – though he's quite confused what he's done to deserve the names and insults the robot is calling him. Anyway, he's not going to put up with it for long.

Rather than block the next swing coming his way, Riku ducks under it, wrist twisting as he calls for Soul Eater and swiftly uses it to behead the robot, unconcerned by the resulting sparks as the robot breaks down.]


You should keep that down. Some people are trying to watch in peace.

[Yrel leaves the film with wet cheeks, signaling to all that she has seen something truly abhorrent. But to contrast with Riku, whose history leaves him vulnerable to brooding, the draenei leaves the theater with a sort of second wind. She has seen the outcome of the Iron Horde's brutality: the sacrifice of her sister, and Velen and Maraad, the invasion of the Burning Legion, and the corruption of a Naaru. These new images only bolster her courage and give her strength.

She must not succumb.

After wiping away the tears from her cheeks, she notices the boy standing alone. By his height and other traits, she assumes he is human. Yrel moves toward him until she is standing beside him. She leans forward only slightly to see his face, but when she finds a blindfold over his eyes, she is perplexed. How can he see with that?

She clears her throat to alert him to her presence before speaking. She speaks softly, kindly.]


Are you alright?

[Prone to brooding indeed, especially in moments that allow him to get lost in his thoughts, that don't offer him any immediate situation (threat) to prioritize his focus on. Especially when memories and guilt both weight heavy on him.

He is a little grateful at the distraction offered by Yrei.]


I will be.

[He has to be. After all, with Sora asleep, someone has to get things done once he makes it back home again.]

...You?

[After all, he's not the only one who refused to stay to watch the destruction of their home.]

[For a while, Mae was simply enjoying the film, letting her shades hide any tears that would fall. The shades of happier days played in her mind: of laughing with her friends at the taverns, watching Urianger get lifted off his feet... Almost as if the great wyrm had not spoken to her. Though when she hears the clang of metal 'gainst magical shield, she can't help but turn in her seat with staff drawn. Though the young one seemed to have it under control...]

Not a bad reflex... [Stowing her staff for a moment, she looks at the wreck that was a robot.] And 'ere they thought I was the one who loathed machinations.

[Riku straightens as he lets Soul Eater fold away into Darkness again, before he turns towards Mae with a faint frown.

Now that she's caught his attention, he can't help but wonder about that smell... it's not the darkness that bothers him – he can hardly talk about Darkness after all, but rather the sense of voidness that he usually would associate with Nobody... except that her sense isn't quite right for that either. It's puzzling, really.

In any case, she doesn't seem to be affiliated with the Organization. Probably. It might pay to stay just a bit wary though.]


Comes with the territory. [That robot has nothing on Heartless or Nobodies after all. He shrugs.] They aren't doing much to endear themselves to any of us.
litbydark: (reading ❄ I always wondered...)

[personal profile] litbydark 2015-03-13 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
As I suspected...

[...Yet did not want to state the obvious. Due to that quick dispatchment of the offending droid, she could only assume that he'd had at least a year of combat experience... if not more. It always was easy to differentiate from the war and more peaceful practices by ones gait when one has been in her line of work for long.]

And during a touching... "film", no less.

[Talk about rude incarnate, as she was so fascinated by this new technology... Almost as rude as dancing behind an enemy a certain wyrmlord she could mention. She shrugs.]
guidetoblivion: (♞ 045)

[personal profile] guidetoblivion 2015-03-16 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[Riku shrugs – he's neither confirm nor deny having combat experience, or how much he has for that matter.

A hint of a smile sneaks on his face, it's been a while since he's snarked with anyone.]


No manners at all.

[And what happens when you behead robots? Not only do they start sparking, but that head just doesn't simply roll away.

No. The head actually goes flying a good number of feet, and if Rise hadn't been watching the commotion, she would have never seen the decapitated head that headed her way. With a yelp, she ducks quickly in her seat before it can hit her, heart pounding in her ears.]


Hey! [You may need to quiet this one down too, Riku. But Rise knows enough about theatre etiquette to pipe down after the initial burst, whispering instead. That, and she knows what these damn machines are like, having been chased by one herself.] Watch where you're aiming that thing, okay?

[personal profile] guidetoblivion 2015-03-16 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[Riku dismisses his weapon before turning to the girl, acknowledging her with a nod.]

Sorry about that. I'll keep an eye out next time around.

[...However that's possible. Considering the blindfold and all.]
