Characters: Anyone coming to Zo's carnival
Setting: Cafeteria; please specify the date and location in the carnival in your subject header!
Format: Anything
Summary: Zo has set up a carnival for the residents, but it's not meant to last. Anyone wandering after the bombs go off might see things they never wanted to see...
Warnings: Psychological and body horror
Note: Characters entering the carnival from the 27th to the 30th will experience visions! Please refer to the info post for details and reply to this thread if your character enters the carnival during these days.

[The carnival has taken up the entirety of the cafeteria. A large roller coaster and ferris wheel tower over the residents, while a child-sized roller coaster, a merry-go-round, and spinning teacups project much less daunting silhouettes. Stands are set up with standard carnival foods available, from ice cream to cotton candy. These stands do not ask for anything as payment.

On the twenty-seventh, the carnival appearance changes. The machinery all appears rusted and broken down, as if weathered with decades of rain and snow. Plants grow up and around the rides, ruining them, and all the food is rotten.]

[It's very impressive. She's very impressed.]

Wow, seven? Did you puke at all?

[bydefacto]

[He lives to impress.]

Only a little bit, once! Did you?!

[ladyliberty]

Not yet, but I've only been on 'em twice so far.

You like it really fast, right?

[bydefacto]

Yeah! [He hurries over to the entrance of the teacups eagerly.]

Faster the better!

[ladyliberty]

I like your style, kid. [Amelia clambers into a teacup and readies her hands on the center wheel.] Let's get this thing started!

[bydefacto]

[Sealand quickly follows, climbing in after her with a grin.] One time it went so fast, I nearly fell out! Honest!

[ladyliberty]

Let's make it go even faster.

[bydefacto]

[He laughs and grabs onto the wheel too.] You're on!

[ladyliberty]

[The ride starts, and Amelia wastes no time getting the cup spinning in dizzying loops. Sealand is clearly enjoying this just as much, and she grins.] Think you can keep up with me?
