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.]

I-I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. [She's still giggling.]

[alephbet]

It's okay, I still love you.

[technologic]

[Which just makes her blush.] I-I love you too... Though I wasn't t-that bad, was I?

[alephbet]

I think it could have been worse.

[technologic]

... Do I even want to know how it could have been worse?

[alephbet]

I think you don't want to know that.

[technologic]

It's really that bad?

[alephbet]

[Nod nod.]

I've had him for too long.

[technologic]

... What's the worst pun you can think up, then?

[alephbet]

Once he talked about penetrating the mysteries of the long, hard tower...

[technologic]

[There's just a moment of silence from her. Before she bursts into laughter.]

[alephbet]

I told you it was bad.

[technologic]

Ehe, yeah, it was really bad... I doubt there's any way to top that.

[alephbet]

Mara is the reigning champion of bad puns.

[technologic]

Ah... I was about to make another 'big-headed' pun, but I probably shouldn't... [She still giggles to herself though.]

[alephbet]

He would think that was a compliment.

[technologic]

[Another giggle and she nods her head.]

Yeah, he probably would... Now I'm starting to think he and Chelly would get along.

[alephbet]

Does she often hang out with dicks?

[technologic]

[Sorry Aleph, April just needs to take another moment to laugh again.]

Y-yeah, she, ah, does, actually.

[alephbet]

He'll have to show them up then. Nobody's a bigger dick than Mara.

[technologic]

[Dammit this conversation is making her laugh way too much.]

I-I'm sure she would be very impressed.

[alephbet]

[He's snickering a little too.]

Some days I wonder why I fused him.

[technologic]

Ah... I was gonna make a joke there, but I probably shouldn't.

[alephbet]

You probably should.

[technologic]

H-hey, you were the one who called me 'bad' earlier for making the pun!
