Enclosures Present:

[malnosso]

Calcicum
Region: Two
Cycle Year: Five
Population: 600+
On Missions: No
Details: An unusual enclosure in that it is entirely underwater and is where most sub-aquatic people are likely to end up. Because of this, they are fairly isolated from the other enclosures and have never once encountered the cultists. They deal with very few experiments and kidnappings are nearly nonexistent. Their biggest complaint is how much the wings slow them down while swimming. While in Malnosso World, they have been given an underwater district to stay in. Those who are able to go on land may visit some of the rides, but in general they tend to associate the surface dwellers as indistinguishable from the Malnosso and would rather have nothing to do with anyone.

Deese
Region: Two
Cycle Year: Three
Population: 300+
On Missions: Yes
Details: Deese comes from a tropical environment that would be considered a resort area if it weren’t an enclosure for experiments. They are rarely called in for drafts, but often participate in missions. Despite being a rather young enclosure, they are surprisingly amicable with the Malnosso. According to the inhabitants, the Region Head is a very easy going man who often gives them advice for coping with upcoming experiments.

Excenn
Region: Three
Cycle Year: Four
Population: 300+
On Missions: Yes
Details: A standard enclosure quite similar to Luceti and Kin’cora. With a diverse population of fighters and civilians, it has proven receptive to cooperating with the Malnosso, though only to an extent. They are frequently seen on missions, often in combat roles. Legends of Luceti have been passed around within Excenn to the extent that most of the population tends to idolize Lucetians and are eager to work with them on drafts and missions.

Kin’cora
Region: Six (same as Luceti)
Cycle Year: Two
Population: 700+
On Missions: Yes (previously not on the same as Lucetians though - repealed now)
Details: Kin’cora is an enclosure that has had a rough history despite its youth. Its first few years were under the auspices of Count Zompano, who was nothing but ruthless in his choice of experiments. When the enclosure was invaded by the Third Party, they were suddenly thrust into the world of the Malnosso, learning far more than they were ever supposed to know. Due to many clashes with their sister enclosure, Luceti, they have developed a mutual dislike of its inhabitants. Although many Kin’corans are good people, the fact that their inhabitants rarely goes home means that they are slow to forget slights against them.

Luceti
Region: Six
Cycle Year: Six
Population: 200+
On Missions: Yes
Details: An enclosure far into its development and often a focus of much of the Malnosso’s attention. Although considered wildly dangerous, they have proven cooperative with the Malnosso and have accomplished remarkable feats that would be considered impossible for other enclosures. As a favorite enclosure of the previous CEO, it is has been the subject of many gifts and considerations other enclosures haven’t. Unlike most enclosures, subjects in Luceti are noted for having relatively brief stays within the world and consequently the ever shifting population leaves the enclosure divided. According to many other enclosures, Luceti has a reputation as ‘okay, but kind of a dick’.

O’Connell
Region: Eight
Cycle Year: Three
Population: 200+
On Missions: Yes
Details: This enclosure is among those that are frequently on missions and were present for the space draft. Consequently its name is likely familiar to those in Luceti already. Their enclosure has been described by their own as being much drier than Luceti’s and being heavily dependant on the rivers as a water source. They are subjected to infrequent experiments and have traditionally displayed a grudging acceptance of the Malnosso and the situation. They were one of the enclosures endangered by the FTSA when Depot 8 was attacked.


R’Car
Region: Nine
Cycle Year: Seven
Population: 100 (or less)
On Missions: Yes
Details: R'Car is a desert enclosure. So they've got it harder than most. They're well supplied, but they have to deal with less rain and so on. So their veterans are harder folk. Much more cynical. Most of the inhabitants are convinced Malnosso World is a trap and are unlikely to participate in anything, except the buffet line.

Tyrus
Region: Ten
Cycle Year: Ten
Population: 8000+
On Missions: No (but they are among the MSF and often command missions)
Details: An enclosure noted to be ending its experimental cycle, the Tyrus enclosure has not been involved with other enclosures for quite a while. Many of its inhabitants are already considered members of the Malnosso and the enclosures have been invited to Malnosso World to celebrate Tyrus’s ten year anniversary. Afterwards, the inhabitants will not be returned to their enclosure and will have become officially members of the Malnosso.

Wyoming
Region: Twelve
Cycle Year: Seven
Population: 700+
On Missions: Yes
Details: An old standby on missions that bears the name of a location from Earth. Ironically enough, no one in the enclosure has ever actually heard of the state Wyoming and are usually annoyed when somebody expresses surprise over this. Their enclosure is very similar to Luceti and have suffered three invasions in their past, all of which they’ve fended off. Their inhabitants are all incredibly tough and brawny folk. The shortest person in the enclosure is six foot three. To the surprise of the Malnosso, the inhabitants enjoy the annual love experiment even more than the scientists do. They will be riding the Paddle Boats of Love a little too much.

X
Region: Twelve
Cycle Year: Two
Population: 150+
On Missions: No
Details: A fresh Enclosure that has yet to be truly introduced to the workings of the Manosso or the world at large. They are named simply ‘X’ and the story so far is that the Malnosso couldn’t think of anything that worked with the letter. Their enclosure is completely enclosed in high mountainous terrain that sounds very similar to Sirry Craggs. Mostly they’re just happy to be somewhere with electricity.


Yggdrasil
Region: Thirteen
Cycle Year: Eight
Population: 400+
On Missions: No
Details: Despite being named for the world tree of Norse mythology, there are few trees to be found here. While their neighbors in Zompania are further north, Yggrasil has the misfortune of being close to the South Pole, where they deal with a neverending winter. Fortunately an artificial sun in the barrier provides them extra heat and light, otherwise the enclosure would be uninhabitable. Due to their remote location, they have experiments about once a year and never really get out. They are a close knit community that have never been called on drafts or missions. They are wholly unimpressed with Malnosso World and have opted to stay in their district until this ruckus is over.

Nagato for all week!

[teachingpeace]

[Nagato had been fairly reluctant at first to explore the place that everyone had been dumped in, but it hadn't taken long before he'd slowly gotten intrigued by... essentially everything. He'd never seen anything remotely like this place after all, since his original home had nothing like amusement parks.

It meant he could be found just about anywhere in the park...

Though admittedly there was a definite priority for him on finding people he knew. He had zero interest in running around by himself, after all.

Mostly.

However... if one approached at the right time, they would see Nagato having some... trouble... with his surroundings. After all, every time he saw the color red, he flinched.

Every. Single. Time.

It was really sapping the fun out of exploring.]

(OOC: Any and everyone is welcome to come poke him, whether you knew him or not before the field trip. He's currently frightened of the color red, so have fun with that!)

[etherion]

[At some point in the week while she wasn't in Casino Land winning everything in there, she'll find Nagato, and despite still not being fully healed in any sense of the word, she'll run (halfway) to kind of jump-hug him.

It's sort of reflex, at this point.

Once she realizes that... yeah, Nagato is not actually her dad and that... thing that those other Malnosso did, she'll slide down and smile a little awkwardly.]

Sorry, it's kinda reflex. Are you having fun?

October 27th - 30th

[hikaruorkaoru]

[There is nowhere Hikaru doesn't go. And almost no one he doesn't talk to. The moment he realizes people here are from other enclosures, too? He asks every single one of them about Kaoru.

The prospect of finding Kaoru somewhere in this place gives him ten times the energy he's had before. Which puts him pretty close to manic. It also means he enjoys himself. He lets himself enjoy this. Because the only way he's going to find Kaoru is to do everything and look for him there.

At some point, he can be found in basically every line.

October 27th

He hits up Cartoon Land first and goes on the Acme Cannon Coaster twice. He starts there the first day and makes the rounds once before taking a break. After Casino Land disappoints, he returns for most of the rest of the day to get in everything.

He puts in an appearance at Casino Land but doesn't stay long. Gambling? Not his thing. Though he does grab quite a bit of food at the buffet. He plays a few slots, tries his hand at a bit of cards, but ultimately leaves pretty early into his stay.

October 28th

The entire day is spent in Thrill Land, riding everything as many times as he can fit into the day, leaving only when it's clear he isn't allowed to get on anything else.

October 29th

He starts out slow for the day, going to Junior Land and checking it out. He might even engage some of the younger kids around and go on rides with them. What can he say? He's in a really good mood.

Next up is Bubble Land, after lunch. Sure, it's a little... dull. But it's also kind of cool to see attractions based on where he's living now. If he can find someone to go with him, he'll even try out some of the temporary shifts. Just to get an idea of the stuff he might have to deal with. He'll avoid the de-aging stuff like the plague, though. He even puts himself in line for the Paddle Boats of Love ride because... c'mon. It's going to be stupid, and that sounds like fun. The long line just means he chats up the other people around him.

October 30th

The entire day is devoted to Halloween Land. He even books a stay at the mansion. What better way to spend the night before Halloween? In the park, he tries to hit up everything, as has become his mantra while he's here.

Nights

Hikaru let his roommates be randomly chosen, and he's actually not too bad to deal with most nights. He exhausts himself fairly well during the day, and by the time he's back in the room, that combined with the increasing disappointment of not finding Kaoru means he's pretty quiet.

...Hopefully no one's sharing a bed with him. Because he'll go between cuddling fiercely and tossing a lot.]

October 28th - Thrill Land

[not_a_troll]

[Loki is standing in a very long line that leads to Tyr's Legacy. In front of him is a young man with red hair.]

Sir, kind sir. If I would inform Tyr that a dangerous contraption like this is named after him he would be most pleased. Perhaps Hela would bestow even more kisses upon his face, you see?

How many times did you went? This will be my third time. Thank the Nine Realms there are no clowns here. Do you realize how spooky clowns are?

[savedtheworld]

[It takes Aang a bit to get settled in and to get used to the weirdness of being on the moon again. Luckily, there isn't much around to directly remind him of the trauma from that draft; rather, there's all those flashy rides to distract him from it! There's still the matter of being without his bending for once, but he tries to keep it from getting to him too much.]

[Days 1-3]

[Once the gaang's settled in - and likely agreed on some sort of arrangement to keep Ikki with one of them at all times - he sets off to explore the park. Thrill Land is primarily what draws him in, and he's excited to try out all of the great rides. He'll try for all of the big roller coasters and the water park, only hitting a portion of them over the days. However, the lines are the kind of thing that quickly reduce his patience of a monk to the patience of a child.

He spends less time there whenever he's with Ikki so that she can go with rides too. Over the first few days, he also pays visits to Cartoon Land, Casino Land and Junior Land. In Cartoon Land, he defies the laws of physics in ways that are all too gratifying for a powerless airbender. Also feel free to find him in the Mirror House, where he's stunned looking at a mirror image of his future self - or perhaps something weirder.

In Casino Land? A lot of the time he just sits to the side while his friends game and eats whatever vegetarian meals are at the buffet, but he also may find some time for games and wind up with unusual luck in winning things.

In Junior Land, he will spend lots of time at the petting zoo and doing arts and crafts. He'll primarily be keeping Ikki company around there. Oh, and he definitely wants to ride that dinosaur.]

[Day 4]

[It's Bubble Land day! Feel free to catch him throughout the area. He's puzzled and somewhat unnerved by all the weird replications of Luceti life that are around. He may also end up accidentally going on the line for the Paddle-Boats of Love. And at any point, he could wind up being subject to a number of shifts - temporarily becoming his older self or his younger self. Maybe even getting body-swapped or temporarily sharing his body with a previous Avatar.

Once he's in his kid form, he'll be eager to return to Junior Land. Feel free to find the arrow-less, six year old Aang running around Junior Land due to the glitch effect.]

[Day 5]

[It's Halloween! And what better day to visit Halloween World? Aang himself is dressed as a caterpillar to match Ikki's butterfly costume. The zombies definitely weird him out and are an uncomfortable reminder of the Vaskkoth draft. But otherwise he's able to enjoy himself and explores the area with reactions ranging from laughing bravery to fear. He'll also wind up getting caught up in one of the murder mysteries.

Aang winds up yielding a lot of candy - and eats enough of it to make himself sick that evening.]

[Days 6-7]

[The last few days? Aang is very unlike his usual self. At first, it may seem like just a carryover of his illness, but he suddenly seems fearful and apprehensive of being around others. He'll be quick to try to get away from others and tries to find somewhere to be alone. Even exploring all the different areas of the park again... but when it's this crowded, solitude may be a hopeless endeavor.]

[Petting Zoo] Ami (geniustheveil) using this account for child icons

[waterfell]

[There's a little girl at the petting zoo, chatting to an animal that doesn't seem very recognizable from Earth at least. Maybe Aang knows what it is. She's very proud of the fact she can read the sign, though, which tells her the name and a little bit about where it comes from. She's never heard of any of them, really, so she ends up tracing a finger along it and sounding the words out.]

Until the 31st.

[amonglions]

Casino Land

[Booker has a hard enough time dealing with the fact that they're on the goddamn moon, so going of his own volition around the amusement park's different areas just seems like asking for trouble. Or at least, that's what he'll tell you if you ask why he isn't leaving Casino Land. It's exactly what he wanted!

Unlimited food at the Buffet (and oh you can bet he'll be there) and plenty of games to win and lose at. Booker spends plenty of time doing that, and over the course of the days he spends there, because what else is he going to do, he racks up a respectable pile of tokens. 'Course he's lost enough to make a man cry but it's all part of the system that he is all too willingly taking part in.

And then he finds out about the back-room tables. Oh dear...]

Everywhere else

[Though at some point, he gets dragged out into the rest of the park because Elizabeth said so. He's so whipped. Still, he'll do some of the things that he secretly wants to do. He kicks ass at any shooting games in the park, stays very, very far away from the water park and manfully refuses to get on any of the really tall or fast rides. He had enough of that nonsense in Columbia - thank you very much.

Oh but he can be persuaded...]

28th

[captainhornblower]

[They'd sat to play about an hour ago. The game had worked its way through, cutting for partners. More than once, they'd been paired, and Horatio had learned how to complement the man's style.

He had a decent head, but he took risks that didn't always work out. When they came together, the victory was resounding. When they didn't, the loss was devastating. Which Hornblower could dampen, at least, with his own careful playing style.

With the game ended, Hornblower divided the last round of chips to be won and offered the man half. Along with the introduction they'd never quite made, too invested in the game:]

Horatio Hornblower.

Until the 31st.

[deadalready]

[Honeymoon in an amusement park? Sure. He'll take it. As far as he's concerned this is the most fun he's ever had.

Which is really sad when you think about it. But who has time to think about it! There are rides! And food!

He's spending every day with Clove though, trying to win her a stupid big annoying ly girly pink thing at any kind of throwing contest booth he can find because that's real love. Getting the person you're in a relationship something they will clearly kill you for winning.

Unfortunately he can't seem to win anything really ridiculous. Which sucks because he wanted to laugh at Clove.

Oh how the tides would turn for him...

He's gonna be everywhere, basically. Really creeped out by Bubble Land and confused by Casino land because he sucks at that kind of thing. Any extreme rides? He's on em. Hell, he'll even try to coax Clove into the Tunnel of Love. For reasons.

Compelling reasons.]

[shenevermisses]

You really can't throw.

[Because Clove can't help but tease him. For all the (very respectable) power Cato has in his arms, there's no control. At least not in things like this.

So, she's having fun watching him fail.

She's really just having fun in general. But this is a highlight.]

October 27th - 30th

[shenevermisses]

[For the most part, Clove can be found with Cato, or at least pretty close.

There is definitely a desire to do everything, so the two of them buzz about everywhere. Clove's never seen anything like this place before, and all the different kinds of food have to be sampled, too.

The rides and games are especially awesome. If it's fast, Clove wants to give it a try and does.

Her trip to Halloween Land is the only time she seems to get really antsy. Only when she's near the real zombies. That draft... she remembers way too well, and since she's unarmed, she prefers to be as far away from those things as possible.]

Let's say the 29th

[complicatedliar]

[Loki's just passing by the buffet on his way to another round of gambling and spies a familiar face. He'll say hello, why the heck not. Being out of Luceti has put him in a temporarily better mood for several reasons.]

Here for the food or the amusement?

October 27th - 30th

[ablankpage]

[For the most part, Robert can be found in Casino Land or at the district where the Luceti residents are staying. The whole "amusement park" thing isn't really his cup of tea.

Granted, the moment Elizabeth asks and gives him a look, he'll be leaving the relative states of comfort he's enjoying and going out with her.

...Unfortunately, the ferris wheel (and a few other rides) present a bit of a problem, thanks to a new-found fear of heights. A fear that he is quite keen about not admitting.]

[quantumgrammar]

[The girl, of course, wishes to scamper all over every square inch of the place. Rosalind is hardly surprised - on the contrary, before her morning tea is even steeped she's ready to go and at island in the kitchenette's little villa, studying the brightly-coloured little maps made available to them as she waits for Robert to emerge from their bedroom.]

Do you suppose we've actually been transported to this planet's moon?

October 27th - November 2nd

[maipokerface]

[Well... at least she can say it's not dull. Some of the places and attractions are less intriguing than others and frankly the lines are enough to make her consider pinning a person or two to a wall here and there just to make things move quicker but eventually she does get to try at least a ride here and there.]

[A]
[In all honesty, Mai has made the decision to give Bubble Land a wide berth. The architecture didn't do a thing for her and the costumed workers were more ridiculous than anything else. ... Was that someone dressed as a giant turtleduck?

The Paddle-Boats of Love earn the most disdain here. After peering down the line trying to figure out what the heck the ride was, she gives the resulting knowledge that it's some lovey-dovey boat ride a good eyeroll. Yeah okay, avoiding this one. ... Until she's forced or gets sucked into the line anyhow.

And it's entirely possible that she might step into one of those Shifts, ending up a whole lot younger. After that, no one can drag her back into Bubble Land, nope.]

[B]
[Casino Land is a little saner than Bubble Land. And a whole lot saner than Cartoon Land. Mai will just be here trying her hand at a little gambling.

And yes, taking advantage of the Buffet. What, they had an array of spicy things. You want her to turn that down?]

[C]
[Now Thrill Land is more Mai's speed. If one ends up running into Mai here, expect her to be hitting up each and every roller coaster, from Tyr's Legacy to the Gummi Coaster. And of course she's going on the Orbiter.

... It's kind of sad how unimpressed she looked by all of them though.]

[D]
[You want to spend enough time in the company of apathy to do anything else? Go for it.]

[Casino Land] did someone say apathy? XD

[mysicksadlife]

Step right up, and prepare to lose whatever winnings you have.

[After all, Daria is here now. She makes herself entirely at home at the poker table, and she has a good poker face to go with that monotone voice. She'll take a break for food when she needs it. For now, this is actually kind of fun. She hadn't expected to find something she didn't mind here.]

All day every day!

[etherion]

[Considering she's been returned from the Malnosso not too long before this, she's a liiiiittle unsure about this place. Until the map reveals a CASINO LAND oh my gosh that is the best thing ever YES PLEASE!

So once she's settled in, until she's dragged off for meals and sleep and anything else? Elie will be firmly planted in the Casino. Her interests are piqued further hearing about some secret back room, and she'll be trying her hardest to see that magical, mythical beast that is the super secret back room.

As it is, the Casino staff are none too happy with her, but she's not cheating to win, honest!



At some point though, she'll hear about the roller coasters (likely from a spirited away Haru) and she'll be wandering the park as best she can and hitting up any of the crazy rides out there. Do you see her in line? Is she really really animated about how this one has a gazillion loops and she's probably going to hurl after but it'll be REALLY AMAZINGLY FUN? Yep, that's an Elie all right. She'll be really excited about the coasters that are likely going to make her sick afterwards, and she'll be talking about it in detail while in line. Because it's FUN ok?!

The Halloween world is also a big attraction, and she'll be there, willingly getting scared (and then laughing) at everything because THIS IS AWESOME. Jumping back from things that really frighten her, she just might run into someone.

However, at some point, she'll be finding herself some... "souvenirs" in the form of scary costumes. She'll be stalking around trying to scare people by jumping out of places and following people as a ghost, perhaps. If they try to watch her, she'll be a still as a pond... until they turn back around, that is.]

[origami_ninja]

[Konan resisted the droids until she was eventually rendered unconscious and woke up with her power suppressed. Even if invited, she likely would have declined, but for the moment, she's trying to keep an open mind. Perhaps the reasons for bringing them all here are benign, but she'll be keeping an eye out for trouble nonetheless.

Years of training have made her very aware of when she's being followed, and the shinobi ducks out of sight before doubling back and darting around the corner quietly to take a look at her pursuer...who is in a ghost costume. This place is bizarre.]

Erryday she's shufflin'.

[implanta]

[This place was... odd, to say the least. There was nothing like it in Metafalss, and it was really strange, to say the least. She had also been told about some roommates sharing the room she was assigned to, and... well, part of her was a little afraid at who she might get (yes this is a call to give her crazy roommates.)

However, after settling in and a glance at the map? The spa sounds nice! As does some of these other things...

...so in a sense, Cloche will be all over the place at any given time, stopping for food, funnel cakes (because why hadn't she ever heard of these before they're delicious) and any window shopping. Sadly, there's no Gergo, but she'll try for any other silly prizes that catch her eye (and fail miserably most of the time.)

The roller coasters are what really catch her eye, and after deciding that she has to try at least one... well, it boils down into her trying all of them. The Orbiter is the last one on the list, and she's becoming more and more unsure after watching people coming off of the ride. She might have to be dragged on after getting closer to the front. Any takers?


After any potential Orbiter rides will probably knock her out for a while, but once she's back to normal? That spooky Gothic Mansion is kind of neat, what's going on there? A MURDER you say? Time for Cloche to be Detective Cloche and get to the bottom of it!!]

Gothic mansion

[not_a_troll]

[Loki does not really know the girl that stands next to him but he will never say no to a haunted spooky gothic house full of ghosts. Ghosts are better than clowns.]

It seems we have a great murdering mystery case on our hands!

[He looks at her, obviously excited because everything about this is exciting.]

Will you be the adorable sidekick while I am the dashing detective?

October 27th - 30th

[captainhornblower]

[Hornblower can be found in one place other than his room in the hotel: Casino Land.

He's not big on the lights and noise, but once he finds the card tables, he's in heaven. He actually finds a table or two playing whist -- quiet games that seem to have sprung up from people waiting for openings at other tables.

Over the course of the next few days, he learns poker and its various forms, blackjack, and a few other games. And, well, true to his nature as a card-sharp, he does pretty well for himself.]

October 28

[complicatedliar]

[How about these two end up at the same table for a while?]

Alllll of the days.

[windofgod]

[Maron is... well, almost in heaven! She had never really been to a theme park before, and lucky for her, the shift of her being Jeanne is not present here! So she'll be going all the places, though when a carousel catches her eye, she'll pause and watch it for periods of time, seemingly lost in her own little world. If anyone wants to drag her on to one? Go for it! There might be some fight back from it, but she'll go almost willingly at the end.

Roller coasters will definitely be her thing though, she'll strike up some conversation while in line. Little things, like "Have you ridden this one already? Is is fun?" or "My favourite is the Orbiter so far! It's definitely a thrill ride, but something has to pass it up in terms of awesome!"

One area she just might have to be dragged into is the Halloween Land + Spooky Mansion. She's already giving it the wary eye anytime she passes by it, but if someone brings her on in there? She might just have to face some fears of hers.

Otherwise, Maron will be seen at any sort of theme restaurants, trying all the food and attempting to remember how it tastes, just so she can replicate it back in Luceti. Especially if it helps her while working.]

[daisy023]

[Have you ridden this one already? Is is fun?]

... Something like that.

[Fun? Hell yes. Though the ones she rode in her universe were one-way and a hell lot more dangerous.

Standing beside Maron in the line of the Orbiter, she easily towers Maron. Seven feet of height, and yet a bit of an adrenaline junkie, as that is the nature of Spartans.

The massive girl covers her shoulder, her CPO insignia, particularly, not knowing yet what was the reputation of Luceti as a whole among many of the other enclosures, and wishing to know how to make friends.]

I... don't think we've met.

[hollower]

[Day 1

Getting woken up so early isn't the ideal way Peron starts her days, but apparently this is for some kind of luxury getaway? Really, she has her doubts on this whole ordeal entirely, and is already suspicious of anything these damn bastards do, but she'd rather not go against them, either. The stories she's already heard...egh, no. Perona will play it safe this time around.

And thank goodness that she did, because the damn bastards actually pulled off something right for a change! It's an amusement part, just like at the Sabaody Archipelago, but better! She's never really gotten to ave fun there when she dropped that idiot off, having to chase off the marines so his dumb crew wouldn't get caught, but now she can actually have fun! And according to her little guidebook and map, there's a casino and...a-and--!]

Hiiiieeee~!

[OUTTA THE WAY, ASSHOLES, SHE'S ON HER WAY TO WHERE THE GRIM AND GHOULISH IS! Halloween Town, here she comes, plowing through any and everyone that's stupid enough to get in the way of a goth girl on a rampage. Maybe she'll be a little sorry if she knows and likes you, or just drag you along to enjoy some horror freakshow with her, or maybe she won't even look back at all! Hell, she's in way too much of a hurry to get mad at people right now, honestly.]
---

[Day 2-5

Are you enjoying yourselves, Luceti? Perona surely is. She's been truly frolicking throw Halloween Town for days now, her eyes wide as the moon she's currently on right now and just as bright (where they're not hearts or stars or something). There are real zombies here, and gnarled trees and haunted attractions, and a fair ground with spooky-themed foods and bats and cobwebs and! It's like a true heaven fo her, and Perona's taken to skulking around in her spirit form, adding even more thrills to the already grizzly attractions, including that divine looking mansion. of course.

Anyone unwise enough to be traversing a haunted house will see many of her ghosts popping out of walls, mirrors, coffins, graves, anything, screaming and laughing and just generally scaring the hell out of people. Perona, too, will have dressed the part of a ghost. She'll be doing much the same as her ghosts, shooting her hands out of mirrors as people pass by unwittingly, popping out of paintings with a screech, and hovering in circles on the ceiling while moaning or laughing. The 31st, Halloween Day is when she's at her most wicked, pulling out all the stop to really scare people out of their skin, so enter the hunted halls and attractions of Malnosso World's Halloween Town with caution on that night, the Ghost Princess is up to no good.

When she's not scaring people, though, she's participating in the games and activities. Bobbing for apples is awfully fun, and the corn mazes are fun (she'll also scare people lost therein, too), and don't even mention the plethora of gorgeous costumes and grimdark clothing she'll be taking back to her room. And the goodies~! ♥♥♥]
---

[Day 6

Having her fill of the wondrous Halloween Town, Perona finally decides to live the final day in the lap of luxury. She zips right on over to the casino to try her luck at a bit of gambling. he slots aren't exactly her thing, but she does enjoy a bit of black jack, poker, and roulette. The atmosphere of people spending their money and/or striking it rich is always fun to be around, and she's got at least a half dozen of her ghosts scouting the area for the real winners. Those are the ones she'll slide on up to to "congratulate". A drink or two, some kind words, and a swift hand in a pocket for whatever it is they may have won. If that's not enough, she'll resort to her ghosts of course.

She'll also do some shopping for some new, fashionable clothes - she has to look her best here, and the costumes she got don't exactly fit in, sadly - and plucking bottles of wine and champagne as well as delicious foods to bring back to her table or her room. Among her second glass of delicious wine and helping of the best dish of food she's had since coming here, Perona sighs and touches her face, leaning on her hand.]

I'm so happy...this is the best time I've had in so long... [And here she was afraid something bad would happen.]

[weathervain]

[Ohh, that pink hair stands out a mile away. Nami makes a face when she catches sight of it, but honestly she's gotten to the point of just wearily acknowledging Perona has a habit of being interested in the same kind of things. And maybe Perona won't recognise her with the wig on. She can hope.

In the meantime, though, she does stop playing on the tables. She's got no intention of carrying on her winning streak when there's a spiteful little troll princess who'd probably make her lose everything just for the hell of it. To the bar. /o/]

[fightforthelost]

Day 1

[Shepard is in Halloween Land because... it's not all rainbows and bubblegum. It's at least a little more tolerable, okay? Besides, he kind of feels like it's the most adult of all the parks, and if he's stuck here, he at least doesn't want to stand out.

So yes, he's in Halloween Land walking down a random path. It's on this random path that one of those goofy animatronic zombies pops out and moans in an attempt to scare Shepard.

On pure reflex and out of habit, Shepard responds with a left hook that sends the robot's head flying in the other direction while that moaning turns garbled and scrambled.

He glances around once he's sure he wasn't just attacked by a husk and coughs into his hand a few times to sort of hide the way he's checking to see if anyone saw that. Then he continues on his way like nothing ever happened.]

Literally every other day probably. Until he gets bored. Yep

[He's in Thrill Land either standing in line for or riding The Orbiter because he is a massive adrenaline junkie. How else do you explain his insane driving of the Mako? And nearly 90% of the other crazy shit he does...

Besides... he's doing his best when he gets fired out into the planet's gravitational pull to check for spaceships or space stations or mass relays or literally anything else that could help him get back home.]

In the Orbiter!

[aerialassault]

[As a fellow resident who was still unaccustomed to being planetside for too long despite having been in Luceti for over 10 months, Cliff also took a whirl on the Orbiter. He missed the zero gravity environment of the hangars and the reinforced frame that had become more comfortable for him than the planet he called home. He missed the stars-- and, he strained to confirm that strange rumor he heard once in Luceti.

There was no way that there couldn't be stars in this world. None.

But the Orbiter didn't allow them much time to look for anything before it hurled it's passengers back to the moon. The more delicate passengers passed out upon landing; the stronger ones at least made it to the trash can before they emptied their stomachs.

Cliff, as cocky and opinionated as always, shook his head and laughed under his breath.]

Heh. Lightweights.

[tea_lover64]

Day 1

[Iroh will be exploring and briefly going to a few different places. He'll try out a few things, just for the sake of it. All the rides and such aren't particularly his thing. He prefers life at a slower pace generally speaking]

Every other day--- Casino Land

[Iroh can be found making quite a tidy sum and playing several different people in a variety of games. Apparently the man knows how to gamble well, and although sometimes he loses, he tends to win a lot. The close proximity to the buffet is of course an added benefit. He doesn't stay out all night, but still keeps things going for a bit longer than one might expect of a man of his advanced years]

Day 3

[seismicity]

[ Toph has finally made it to Casino Land! And she is having so much fun. She managed to partner up with at least one person today and split the ill-gotten booty tokens with them, but now she's alone again and it's starting to bother her.

Luckily, she senses Iroh at a table not too far away! She heads over to him, a bag of tokens hooked to her hip. ]

Hey, Iroh!

any day

[scootch]

[Getting kidnapped and flung unwillingly to the moon isn't exactly the most fun of experiences, but as soon as Ellie gets herself sorted and discovers where she's been dumped, well. It's all surreal, a bit scary, but undeniably breathtaking. She's never been to an amusement park before, nevermind one that was actually working. As such, she's pretty much blown away.

She spends a good chunk of her first day wandering from place to place, looking utterly lost and overwhelmed, but it's also amazing, so when she isn't staring in awe, she'll be grinning like an idiot.

You know what would be great? Someone to guide her around, show her the ropes, teach her to be a proper kid in a theme park. She's smart enough to find her groove on her own before too long, but this sort of thing is always more fun with company.

And Ellie? She wants to see everything.]

[fightforthelost]

You trying to catch flies?

[So... have Shepard hauling around a gigantic stuffed giraffe horse in one arm that he obviously won from one of those sharpshooting contests. He can, after all, hit a flea off a varren's ass from a mile away, but like hell is he going to lug the stupid toy around all day. That means he needs a willing victim. Kids like these sort of things, right?

Ellie, you just happen to be the first kid he sees as soon as he turns away from the booth.]

Ami: Cartoon Land, Water Park, Junior Land.

[geniustheveil]

First of all, Ami is loving Malnosso Land. It's the times like these that almost (but not quite) reconcile her to Luceti just a little bit. She could easily spend a week here, running from ride to ride, waiting in the lines (she doesn't mind, really!) and nibbling blue cotton candy.

When she takes a small break in Cartoon Land, she might very well have out a notebook to jot down observations about exactly how the place is breaking the laws of physics. But most of the time, she's performing agilely on the obstacle course, or quite simply walking on air and refusing to look down. It's sort of fun!

At the water park in Thrill Land, Ami is in her element in every possible way, while wearing a modest one-piece swimsuit under a lightweight cover. The smell of chlorine seems to cling to her even when she's just waiting in line. She doesn't seem to mind at all. Most of the time, though, she's at the wave pool, and once or twice she can be found lounging on a poolside chair with a book, looking quite relaxed and contented.

There's a little girl in Junior Land who seems to be alone but doesn't seem lost at all. She likes the carousel, to judge from how many times she rides it, but she spends a lot of time at the petting zoo, too, attracted most of all to the non-Earth animals, which she speaks to using pretty polite language for a little girl.

Junior Land

[daisy023]

"You're here!"

A sudden, familiar voice squeals as she moves from behind Ami to try to hug her tightly, suddenly, maybe a little too strong for her age. But as ecstatic as the time Ami revealed she was from twentieth-first-century Earth.

"I'm so happy to see you! This place is great! There are animals of Earth everywhere, and some not even from that or my colony!"

Daria: Casino, Murder Mystery Mansion

[mysicksadlife]

This isn't the moon and Daria is not enthused at having been brought here despite her protests. On the other hand, whatever it really is, the results and effects seem to be the same. Which is probably why, if she ever made it to Cartoon Land, Daria left before anyone would even notice it.

Instead, she's found her people in the Casino. She doesn't care much about reward points, but she likes playing the games, and she definitely likes winning. Especially if she can feel like she put one over on a fellow gambler. Her game seems to be Poker. She's parked at that table for quite awhile. (Yeah, she's pretty sure it's as rigged as the races.)

The only other thing she's decided to check out after all is the Gothic Mansion in Halloween Land. Zombies don't exist, but on her way there, Daria finds herself avoiding them anyway, as much as possible. The cliche mystery theatre aspect is a bit tacky, but she could be persuaded to stay for awhile once the owner is 'murdered'. As long as there's some convincing gore.

Casino

[tea_lover64]

[Iroh will join in at the poker table, and greets people with a smile. After learning about the rules, he realized he had played similar games back in his own world, and he already had the strategies in mind.]

Hello there! Having a good time?

[stillplaying]

Most of the time, especially at the start of the week, Katniss spends as much time with her sister as possible. She doesn't trust the Malnosso, doesn't trust them in the slightest, and waits - waits, waits, waits - for something to go wrong. This is too... pleasant in its way. Something she's never experienced and yet?

Yet, when Prim's not paying too much attention - when no one's paying too much attention - she actually lets herself have fun. Bow, quiver, and knife go with her everywhere. She doesn't let herself walk around unarmed even for a second. Because things could still go wrong. One of those zombies at the edge of Halloween land may attack. Something... Anything...

But by the end of the week, she finds herself letting Prim go off and do her own thing. She leaves the rooms she shares with Prim and Richard to explore or take in a meal at the buffet. And do whatever people suggest of her.

Because she can't disappoint. She just can't.

[halfnhalf]

[It's later in the week when Teddy finds Katniss, his big backpack filled with dolls he won that he didn't really want. The first time he tried to give a doll to someone here, it didn't... go so well. Hopefully, this one will be better.

He takes a doll out of the backpack - randomly, as there are many kinds in there, and goes to her, holding it out for her with a smile that feels a little odd to him.]

Surprise.

[tryit]

Okay, this was way better than having her memories manipulated. First thing first? She was on the moon. In space. Which, okay, she might have gotten there eventually if she kept up the superhero gig with Clint. The Avengers tended to go there often enough. But why wait? She's here now. In an amusement park. On the freaking moon.

She spends as much time possible enjoying every moment of this. Sometimes, a break from business is necessary. Right? Right. She's only twenty. She shouldn't be in that much of a hurry to grow up.

So all work on the nightclub back in Luceti is put aside to waste every moment she can cram in. Be it riding every single ride possible (even with those damn two hour waits) or dancing the night away at the nightclubs in Casino Land, she's making the best of everything. But every now and then, you might find her staring out into space, worrying about what the future might bring.

And whether she'll ever be able to cope with it.

[halfnhalf]

[Teddy might not have been able to be found earlier in the week, but he's out and about later, when things are somewhat patched up between him and Billy, and when he feels okay with himself enough to let people look at him. It's when Kate's looking out at space that Teddy finds her, because that was something he wanted to do, too. He won a few prizes from one of the games earlier, and so, he lets his footsteps be heard so as not to startle her when he places one of the dolls on her shoulder, as if letting it look over at her face.]

Penny for your thoughts? [Normally, he'd shift his voice to something much more suiting for a little doll. Seeing how he can't, though...]

All Days | Everywhere | Prompts Optional

[daisy023]

Central hub

[It was a mass kidnapping. Daisy didn't know what it was for, and while she fought off the droids at first, she realized this would only end with the entire village exhausted with whatever could have been the Malnosso or the Rogue faction's true plan, so much against her will, she took a landing-ready position for whatever was awaiting them, gathering too much energy to bolt back and rip them apart, but containing it in a meditation she had a harder time than any other. She waited for the moment to bolt into action for where it would be appropriate.

The villa she was shifted to was hardly deserving of a Prisoner-Of-War medal.

With the comfortable rooms she is assigned after the entire ordeal, and possibly sharing a room with someone else also from her enclosure, it is a startling change from what she expected, retaliation from some party from what happened... and the comfort they had now. For a while, Daisy spends her time sitting over bed, occasionally walking to the windows to look down. They didn't just take Luceti -- they took all of the enclosures.

Even then, what worries her is Luceti's reputation among the enclosures, especially in the aftermath of the destruction of the cultist city. She would also have to explore, now that she had the time, to see if there was anyone else from her universe that could be found and kept in touch with.

Daisy grabs the edge of her too-long braid, grabs the wrapped tip that neared her hips, and undid the tie to release her vast blond hair from the strands that undid themselves on their own to cover her whole back in gold. Valvalis would have been too happy to see her like this.

She uses both her journal and her ear radio for this, trying to filter it to residents and friends of her enclosure.]

This is Daisy. [She took a deep breath.] Anyone good with doing hair, with new dresses for tall people, or if you know someplace to do it, please come to me.


Bubble Land

[It's a Spartan! I don't believe it!

Whatever the plan was to meld among the population, it was immediately thrown out of the airlock and away from the orbit of the moon when a young girl recognized her in glee -- possibly because of the seven feet of height which were quite hard to conceal, which would have prompted her kind to avoid this place like the plague. And without the secrecy Section Three tried to keep from being used by Section Two's propaganda machine, she was immediately swarmed. Which was why she bolted the hell out of there.

If you do find her, she has probably tried keeping a hood on having learned from her mistake, and has thus tried further concealing herself. Trying to find people. And God forbid she steps into one of these damned shift-afflicted zones by accident.]


Cartoon Land

[Having never watched cartoons, there is something quite off Daisy does not know what is it the moment she steps in here. She attributes someone falling from the sky to leave a silhouette on the ground as a power that was kept for safety.

She knows something is different, much in the way one first into a planet to feel the contrasting gravity and atmosphere, but she doesn't see anything unusual from most of the residents. Without the augmentation of her thoughts and senses, she begins to wonder why are there some walking with visible injuries -- all that disappear the moment they look at something else.

A shadow covered her area. It would have been a cloud perhaps the result of terraformation in this side of the moon, but she was puzzled when the rest of the patrons calmly walked away from it as if they were seeing a UNSC Elephant moving in for cargo, but she didn't hear a sound.

One man in victorian regalia put a hand over her shoulder, as high as he could, gently speaking to her before walking away as well.

Miss... you might want to move.

Daisy blinked. The shadow was turning bigger--

CRASH!

The elephant got up, brushed the dust off himself, and moved away.

Where it fell, there was left an enormous crater in the concrete with a red-and-gold disc on the center with dazed eyes.

As she laid flattened, Daisy tried to think what would this be classified as for a medevac call while she struggled with a headache.]


Casino Land

[Having found a red dress and got to make her long hair wavier for the sake of looking different from a supersoldier, and more like a regal lady, curiously similar to the girl that was during Zompano's invasion in appearances. She looked serious, serene, but more than that, focused. There were commodities in this place she could get to win with the right gambles.

She used to spend some of her free time playing cards with the other Spartans, and while among them she didn't play well, the key words were "among them". Spartans had an uncanny talent to keep their expressions concealed even among themselves, and most shows of affection had to be deliberate among them. While she didn't have her augmentations and armor, she was still a math prodigy -- and a big poker and blackjack player by the standards of normal humans.

There would be many places to visit, create contacts, perhaps visit with a friend of hers. Even the buffet. Which she told herself she would visit soon enough.

But for now, she is here trying to see what can she earn for herself and for her friends. And if the rumors are correct? See if she can find the place to gamble for mission points.]


Thrill Land

[She remembers this all from Lucetiland. That Keimi is not here to enjoy it with her makes her heart ache.

Many of the rides were known to her... except the Orbiter, which Daisy saw land down from orbit just as well. with dozens of these residents moving the hell away to bard their guts out. It seems not everyone is fit to be a Helljumper. She would think whenever if to attend any of the rides with the enormous lines that had formed inc comparison to what had been in Luceti.

But everywhere else?

As much as she didn't want to admit it... she had fond memories of Lucetiland. The friends she had made. The life she remembered after so many years missing. The sweets, the games, the artificial beaches, the rides...

Mom... Dad...]


Junior Land

[She doesn't expect the change when she first steps in. Her mind simply changes as she reduces vastly in height, and most function she trained for a long for diminish to a vastly more innocent age. Whatever she wore at that time is changed for something fitting her age. The process lasts less than seven seconds, and the girl doesn't even notice it.

When it is finished, she blinks.]



Hm? [The small girl looks around.] Where are the people from that funny village...?

[And yet, in spite of keeping her hands over her teddy bear keychain, she walks forward, exploring.



And eventually loving every second of it. If she sees you, she will probably try to drag you to the petting zoos. And the gardens. And the games of tag. And the checkerboards. And everything else. The dinosaur rides, especially, which makes her squeal in disbelief at seeing a real dinosaur from Earth itself, from millions of years ago.

If some accident happens, and a wrong door is accessed on the final day, she could stay like this for a good while.]


Halloween Land

[This is the place Daisy remains the briefest. The sudden movements are startling enough as it is, even the architecture which seemed mockingly gothic, but when she sees most of the workers... she recognizes some of them. And a feeling of guilt sinks in when she remembers what had happened to the enormous enclosure of Vaskoth in the years she had spent in here.

Were the only survivors the ones they couldn't save? The ones the cure didn't work on?

As soon as she finishes exploring the area, she will return to the hub, to either explore the other areas or find more people within the nexus. She had enough things to be terrified of in her life.]

Cartoon Land!

[sun_showers]

[She happened to be in that group of people stepping away, turning and then seeing her friend Daisy just get crushed under an elephant...oh my. Obviously, she's familiar with Looney Toons and the like, so she giggles a little, knowing that Daisy would be fine, but walks up to the newly crowned street pizza.]

Daisy? Are you alright?

[all7seas]

Jack Sparrow, unbeknownst to him, has been hit with Anya's Vengeance Demon curse.

(Thanks for that, Nami. :|)

As a result, YES he is at an amusement park, but he is having the WORST POSSIBLE TIME EVER.

1) For Jack Sparrow, all the lines are long. Super long. And as soon as he gets to the front of any given line,

a) He is seized with a terrible need to go to the bathroom
b) The ride is closed for maintenance
c) Some kid throws up on him.

If he DOES manage to get on a ride,

a) The ride will break down, leaving him hanging in some precarious position (e.g. upside-down in mid-roller-coaster-ride, etc.)
b) He'll throw up all over some kid.
c) Both a and b.

2) He loves Casinos, in fact he will probably spend MOST of his time at this one. However, he is going to lose EVERYTHING.

3) Jeffrey the brontosaurus eats his hat. :|

4) At some point he gets accosted by balloon-animal clowns and will be trying to find a place to hide.

Thanks for the awesome amusement park, President Obama.

do your worst. XD

[geniustheveil]

[What horrible luck. Ever since she found herself in line with Jack, Ami could swear the line hasn't moved an inch. But it must have by now...

Anyway, making the best of things, at least this gives her time to talk with him and catch up. It's been awhile. So Ami has been much more talkative than usual, excited by the amusement park and the atmosphere of the rides.

Whatever the holdup was, finally it seems to let go. After what had to be another half hour, they finally seem to be getting on the ride. Only ingrained manners make Ami patient enough to wait for Jack to get seated first before she climbs in beside him.]

We made it on! [Even if this is pretty much as far from the best spot on the ride you can get...]

All Days, all places

[onejump]

[Aladdin spends the whole time wandering around just... *staring* at everything. What is all this? It seems like something out of Genie's most demented nightmares. He has no idea what to make of any of it.

All he knows is most of it goes up high, and that's bad. Very, very bad.]

[stilldontgotit]

Having a little trouble there?

[Man, poor Aladdin. Agrabah's far from technologically advanced, and to Al, those rides probably look like monstrous death traps.

So, Riku offers him a sympathetic smile. There has to be at least some place more relaxed, right?]

all week

[stilldontgotit]

Central Hub;

[They grabbed everybody and dropped them in an amusement park? Really? As Riku breaks free of the Droids and gathers his bearing, he can't help but crack a smirk and whistle at his surroundings. He was around for Luceti Land's first and second appearances, but after well over a year, he never thought he'd get 'treated' to the thrills of park life again, especially after the Shift Bomb incident.

And this setup's definitely more extravagant. On his romp through the area, he stops and glances at the various kiosks and booths, taking a short look at the food court while his stomach growls and groans.

He settles for a slice of pizza before heading off to the trains. He probably stands out a bit thanks to the technicolor bat that follows him wherever he goes.]

Cartoon Land;

[Bright and colorful, packed with zany attractions? Well, he can't fault the Malnosso for their creativity. Riku's been to enough worlds that the idea of cartoon physics doesn't really phase him...

Until a grand piano drops from an apartment building and he realizes that he's standing on a giant, red X.

SPLAT!

One minute he's a pancake, the next he pops back to his normal shape, breaking through the piano and snapping through some of the strings in the process. Birds and stars circle around his head, and he stumbles out of the wreckage with a groan.]

...They sure went all out with this, didn't they?

[Once the initial shock of being flattened wears off, Riku can be found investigating the rides and attractions, particularly the obstacle course and that Acme Coaster. By the time he's through with both attractions, his hair's frazzled, his skin's stained with ashes, and he's hobbling around in a daze. Should he spot anyone familiar, he may warn them to watch their step and not look down.]

Thrill Land;

[Now this is more like it. Roller coasters? Water slides? Not a single stick of dynamite in sight?

Oh yeah, he's all over this, chilling in the wave pool in a pair of black trunks, shooting down the water slide. By the time he lines up for Tyr's Legacy and the Orbiter, he carries the distinct smell of chlorine, and his short, silver hair's clinging to his skin. Even his trusty Dream Eater, Sonar, is a wet furball, though he doesn't seem to mind. Water! Fun! What's not to like?

Unfortunately, these lines seemingly stretch on for miles. Rather than wait in silence, he'll go ahead and address the nearest person.]

So, you had any luck with the other rides?

[After all, there's gotta be at least some place with less traffic.]

Halloween Land;

[Well, isn't this charming? On his way into the park, Riku stops and stares at a goofy, Animatronic vampire flailing its arms and chiming about how it "vants to suck is bluhd." Rather than buy into it, Riku flicks it on the face and presses on.

It becomes pretty clear that something's amiss when he passes a food stall serving gummy eyeballs, worms, and other eerie treats only to find a zombie at the counter.]

Now that's just plain cruel.

[Then again, it's the Malnosso, so he shouldn't be surprised. He imagines that some folks, like the Kin'corrans won't take too kindly to the presence of zombies, though.

During one of the nights, he has the misfortune of staying at the gothic manor and getting dragged head first into the murder mystery. Should anyone else join them, he'll probably approach, offer to team up in this little detective game, or humor others on whether or not they've found clues.

All in all at least it's something to do.]

Cartoon Land!

[capsulepresident]

[Trunks happen to be exploring this area when he sees what happened to Riku after stumbling out of the wreckage, not only baffled because this defies all logical physics and science itself, but he also sees this as way of experimentation for science.]

If you mean going all out by defying the laws of physics, then yes I can see that being a thing. But are you okay? You kind of...got flattened. I'm surprised you lived through that.
