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.

//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.

Lord Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald - fate/zero

[personal profile] hgblood 2015-03-07 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Theater II (This is what you get for choosing randomly.)

This whole situation is disgusting. Now being herded into this theater where they clearly will not show any proper performing arts, he chooses a theater at random. Let's just get this over with.

He sits primly in his seat, one finger tapping irritably at the armrest through the whole first part. How sickeningly melodramatic. How idiotic that a robot was the main character. The wall is more interesting to look at than this movie.

And then something strange catches the corner of his eye. A flash of red hair of a perfectly familiar hue. A slight hint of sound that might be... her voice?
He turns his attention back to the screen, but it's back to the robot. A cut, then-

"Sola-Ui?" What is she doing in this? No, wait, what is he doing in this?! His attention is now captured as he watches his first meeting with Sola-Ui play out before him. Then the second meeting. Despite the strangeness of seeing it like this, his heart warms at the memory. Then- her body floating in a river. Tens of her, hundreds of her body choking the river-! Sola-!

He gets to his feet, absolutely enraged and a breath away from blowing the offending screen away with his magecraft. His voice is cold and hard, the terror of his rage beneath a thin layer of ice.

"You scum. Those responsible for her death will find a fate a hundred times worse at my hands."

[[ooc: brackets format or third person, either is fine!]]

"Hey, what's the big deal?" A dark haired girl who had been sitting calmly in the row behind him leans forward, with both of her hands on the back of his seat.

What Rin saw didn't matter--she was all too used to this world adding in images and tricking her mind that nothing phases her anymore. This was her third (fourth? she honestly can't keep count anymore) time involved in one of these things and so far, she believes she's seen it all. Knowing that the face she saw on the screen likely didn't match the body she so desperately wanted to find made it easier... but this guy.

"Aren't you a little old to be acting out?"
hgblood: (irksome creatures abound)

[personal profile] hgblood 2015-03-08 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
(... but this guy.)
Using as little modern technology as possible is something of a point of pride amongst the magus elite. Image mapping and other computer visual effects are not at the top of his mind as a reason behind what he's seeing.


He rounds on the girl. She obviously isn't the one responsible for this, but she talked back to him. Such insolence. He acts as he sees right, and no one tells him otherwise.

"You are blind to what is happening here. Clearly these 'saviors' of ours are not as concerned with our well being as they claim, to display such things."

Particularly because, now he realizes, that this whole audience had seen those tender and awkward first moments of him falling in love-!

"This is a farce and a disgrace. I will not stand for being dishonoured in this way!"

I love Kayneth so much I'm sorry

[personal profile] codere 2015-03-09 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
They were very tender moments and all that, though she didn't pay much attention to them on account of being a socially awkward teenager. Nothing about adults falling in love would appeal to hear since she's mentally stunted to act like a child (programmed she would argue) and she's already spoken for. Lucky that she had the greatest knights fall into her lap quite literally.

"Better get used to it." Rin comments as she leans back into her chair with her arms folded behind her head. If she's bothered at all by his outburst, her body language indicates otherwise. With one leg folded over the other with her boot tapping against the seat lightly meant she was in no rush to leave.

Even with the screen gone.

"So what will you do about it? Destroy enough property and you'll be poor. Destroy even more and you'll be taken down by the police."
hgblood: (dreaming of torturing rats)

lol-! Oh, no, he's so dumb though! Don't love him XD

[personal profile] hgblood 2015-03-09 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Insolent, arrogant girl.
And very unfortunately her words hold a ring of truth, if this insane situation is to be believed. Yet even as it stands in this moment, all of his accumulated wealth is gone as well as all the people that he had influence over. He cannot immediately bring the makers of this movie to face judgement, or should he destroy the offending theatre he has little resources to recoup the damages.

So he glowers at the girl for a moment, his face breaks into a confident smile.

"Hmph. The weak can be satisfied with 'getting used to it'. The powerful will set about bending it to their will."

And with that proclamation he will turn from her to make his way out of the theatre.
He intends to make an elegant exit, and so glares at the people who are sitting in his way. If they don't stand to make way fast enough there will be hell to pay.

I can't help it ;A; blonde magi ftw

[personal profile] codere 2015-03-11 09:36 am (UTC)(link)
No way. No one ever gets the last word on Rin Tohsaka.

(Except for Ryuko Matoi, but that was a rare circumstance where the other girl ended up texting Rin the next day so it counts as a victory.)

Pushing herself up, she follows after him with a rhythmic click-clack of her heeled boots with interest. He speaks of power, but she does have to ask what he knows of it. Destruction of property is impressive to others, but Rin has seen some shit in her lifetime.

"So what is your plan, mister? Blow up every screen that shows you something unsettling?"
hgblood: (always better than you)

[personal profile] hgblood 2015-03-11 11:31 am (UTC)(link)
His exit from the theatre was progressing smoothly, minus the discordant clack of the girl's boots coming after him.

Che. Ridiculous. He had the last word. What is she being so damn persistent for? He supposes he will have to deal with her. Simple. It only takes a moment of consideration to find a way, so he will indulge her with a fifteen-second answer as he strides confidently towards the outside doors.

"Only children think that blowing things up solves everything. The subtle flow of power can be discerned and altered, to those who understand its ways."

With three longer strides he exits the door before her, and smiling languidly pushes it closed behind him. With a few murmured words, he uses his mastery of air to create pressure on every door into the theatre within his sight. An elegant solution to keeping her from troubling her further, although other people may be inconvenienced that they can't get in or out by those doors for a while. They are sealed quite shut by his magecraft.

Farewell, child.

[personal profile] humanmissilelauncher 2015-03-20 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
As the magician heads to the exit, she hears a somewhat familiar voice and turns on her heel. Was that who she thought it was? There's an initial grimace on her face, then a bright smile as she wanders up to him. A hand waves a tad obnoxiously and she's practically oozing friendliness, false or otherwise.

"El-Melloi in a movie theater? Now I've seen everything!"

She stops when she gets close enough and drops her thumbs into her jean pockets.

"And mad as hell, by the sound of it. What's eating you?"
hgblood: (juvenile fantasies)

[personal profile] hgblood 2015-03-20 01:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Who-? ... Ah.
Here is a red-head he'd rather not see.

The Aozaki family is fast deteriorating and considerably beneath his notice, but for knowing that they are heretical and trouble. He does know some of this girl's reputation as well, although of course nothing complimentary.

He would have her know that he is hardly in this 'theatre' by choice, but it seems a waste of breath. Instead he glares at everyone between him and the aisle, so that they move aside and he can move freely. He joins her in the aisle and replies curtly,

"I hardly think you need to ask."

Once he finishes speaking he at immediately continues up the aisle towards the exit. Perhaps he should be glad that she isn't outright using what was on the screen as ammunition to taunt him. What is she playing at?

[personal profile] humanmissilelauncher 2015-03-21 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
Ice cold, but what was she expecting? This was a prominent Magus after all. She wasn't surprised, but a bit disappointed that he was just another 'fogey'. Then again, maybe it was just the subject of his ire put him in a bad mood.

Against her better judgment she decides to follow him. She was a meddler, after all.

"I wouldn't have asked if I knew. Talking about your problems is one way to make them go away, y'know."
hgblood: (you are dismissed from this life)

[personal profile] hgblood 2015-03-23 11:14 am (UTC)(link)
... What is she doing, following him? Annoying meddler.

But he does mentally pause when she says that she doesn't know what his 'problem' is.
Is it possible she hadn't seen that?

Some confidence in this situation restored, he continued striding towards the outer exit.

"How very unfortunate that speaking of you would not make you go away." How presumptuous, even considering that he would speak to someone like her about his issue with what he had seen in the theatre. "And that speaking of this 'world' that we are in would not make it go away."
