dreamland day zero




42 players remaining.


[You wake up in a temporary barracks set up behind an amusement park. The weather is chilly but pleasant, and there aren't any lines for the rides - in fact, it seems you have this place to yourself. The entire park appears to have been abandoned some years ago, and though everything is in working order, it is overgrown with plants and seems rusted and unsafe.

As for you, something has happened, though you aren't sure what. There's a throbbing pain in your head, and you can't focus, as though you're coming off heavy pain medications. However you think you should look, you look like a human now. Under the bandages wrapped around your temple, old and smelling like blood, you'll find a recently stitched up scar wound and the inability to focus on your memories. You have no knowledge of how you came to be here; you may even have forgotten certain aspects of your life, or feel confused about them. The fact of your missing memories is obvious, a dark blank spot. Under the bandages around your wrist, you'll find a brightly colored bracelet, decorated with the face of the smiling cartoon animal on your wall, embedded into your flesh. It beeps a merry tune and welcomes you to DreamLand Fun Park. Just then, a voice comes over the loudspeaker.]

"Good morning to all of our new guests! The park is now open! We'll get started later, but for now, have a magical day with your new friends! Oh, and there may be a few nasty side effects to your medical condition. If you meet someone having trouble adjusting to reality, please be polite!"

[In your room, you'll find a small box containing several personal items - no weapons, magical items, or technology advanced beyond the early 21st century, and nothing dangerous, but otherwise anything you would ordinarily find on your person is there. Of course, nothing with cell reception or internet connectivity can manage to pick up a signal.

If you swipe your bracelet against the steel door, it unlocks. You may now explore your accommodations, or venture out into the park.]

[is this Ratatouille]

... Oh! Hahah, that's a good one. [Yuya is a fan of puns, but this one was lost on him at first since he's Japanese.]

So, you said Ringmaster just now! You must work for the circus, that's awesome.

[he bets they know all kinds of tricks!]
siggey: (who wants to talk about the chinese room)

[personal profile] siggey 2014-09-22 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
What about semi-liquid/solids? Like apple sauce, mashed potatoes, that sorta thing.

[ That gets me to look around the mess hall once more. Is there a blender around? ]
murimurimuri: (monkey see monkey do)

[personal profile] murimurimuri 2014-09-22 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
[it is super Ratatouille]

Yeah, that's right. I'm a trainee animal trainer.

[Well, one of them seems to know some tricks...]

Er... yes, but those two things aren't really related...

[personal profile] sparklyrichbastard 2014-09-22 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
M-maybe we can slip them off! Like with soap and water!
siggey: or two, or an arm, or two arms (could use a hand here)

[personal profile] siggey 2014-09-22 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
It's not inside!

[ Actually I have no idea, since they apparently operated on our head, which should be a very risky operation necessitating utmost surgical precision. A bomb in our stomach or something would probably be a cinch next to that...

But I'm obviously not gonna agree. ANYTHING would be better than agree with a panicking kid's imaginative worst. ]


They said it to freak us out, and it's working! I admit, even I lost it earlier there. But this whole thing is crazy. No one's gonna get blown up and we'll find a way out, alright?
jingler: ova (but what's the use?)

[personal profile] jingler 2014-09-22 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
I think that should work, but I'm troubled that I might make a mess of the suit. Like if some mashed potatoes didn't go through right and not all of it got into my mouth. I would have to be trapped in a suit with mashed potatoes inside of it too. I don't really think I would enjoy that.
siggey: (true dork)

[personal profile] siggey 2014-09-22 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ I can't help but snort. The image is pretty funny! ]

Yeah I guess, better stick with a flat straw and bacon strips, huh? It looks pretty heavy, too. Were you actually wearing that before you got kidnapped?
jingler: sprite (as i was split in half)

[personal profile] jingler 2014-09-22 08:07 am (UTC)(link)
No. I awoke in it, trapped inside. I suppose with my amnesia it's possible that I was wearing this suit of my own volition, but then why wouldn't I have the key to it? It seems incomprehensible to me that I would lock myself in a suit and not keep the key on my person.

[This has him glancing back down at his wrist to doublecheck, but...]

Ah... I don't think that would work. These look... [PRETTY WELL STUCK.]

[personal profile] sparklyrichbastard 2014-09-22 08:15 am (UTC)(link)
[nooooooo I don't liiikkkeee thiiissss]
siggey: he's still thinking hard!! (this is not an ooc icon)

[personal profile] siggey 2014-09-22 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
Wait, but you got amnesia BEFORE this, in that warehouse, right? Otherwise you really shouldn't know who I am.
mediumburgers: (= hmms)

[personal profile] mediumburgers 2014-09-22 08:30 am (UTC)(link)
Well... it wasn't working so great at home, either. Only when I'm in big trouble. [ Or when her boss is. ] But being kidnapped to an amusement park and stuff, that kiiiind of feels like big trouble, you know?
mediumburgers: (= unsure)

[personal profile] mediumburgers 2014-09-22 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
Then I guess it really isn't like last time. I don't know why else anyone would want to kidnap me. Aside from how cute and perky I am, anyway.

Wow, that sounds... impressive.

[ "Travel the cosmos"??? Is that an airline or something. Does she really want to ask. No. ]

So, you're an animal tamer? I met someone like that in a circus once! Do you work in a circus, too?

Run run run!

[ these girls are all about safety, haven't you noticed

running in an abandoned park to go ride a rusty roller coaster ]

[Hellooooo Tamaki.]

And you can call me your future wife.

[personal profile] mediumburgers 2014-09-22 08:46 am (UTC)(link)
[ As if she hasn't already eaten half the carnival by now. ]

The coaster does! There's some sort of weird merry-go-round on the eastern side, too. I haven't checked out the western area yet, so who knows what's over there. [ Deathtraps, probably. ]

[After only a moment, it dawns on her what she said and she breaks into some pretty obnoxious laughter.]

I'm just joking! Hahaha!! Haha...

[Wow smooth Mabel. Smooth. Coughing into her hand, she manages a sort of awkward grin.]

It's nice to meet you Tamaki! Have you ridden any of the rides?

[Yup, subject change.]

[ ENJOY YOUR BUNS, HONEY

Maya will probably just stand here going AWWWWW while he looks at the buns. ]
mediumburgers: (+ hands!)

[personal profile] mediumburgers 2014-09-22 08:55 am (UTC)(link)
What a sweet doggy you are!

[ She's going to semi-cautiously reach out to pet him, hoping that he doesn't bite her and give her rabies or something. ]
jingler: ova (steam engenius enough)

[personal profile] jingler 2014-09-22 09:01 am (UTC)(link)
Correct. I was also trapped in this suit inside the warehouse. The person responsible for my amnesia and this armored suit isn't the one behind our current predicament.

[personal profile] mediumburgers 2014-09-22 09:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ Hopefully she doesn't regret it later. ]

Of course! I won't let anything bad happen to you, no matter what the guy on the loudspeaker says!

[ Ah yes, a great declaration to make in a murder game. ]

You've been trapped in an abandoned theme park with an explosive bracelet on your wrist before? Wow! Wait, how'd you escape that time?

[ And can it be repeated in this situation. ]
