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.]

[There's a faint hint of a smirk in response.]

Missed my chance back home, personally.

[Handshakes are a thing you guys do, right? At least, the redhead has extracted a hand from his cloakblanket for one.]

Asch.

[The Knightly Order of the Awkward Meaningful Name is go. So's the ferris wheel, starting to lift them significantly over the rest of the carnival.]

Then make sure you get a chance later.

[She pauses a moment, but takes his hand and shakes it.]

Pleasure.

[She has to say, first time she's met someone in a non-crisis situation.]

[bloodyashes]

That's the plan.

[Well, clearly she needs to get out more. Even Asch managed that in his first month.

After releasing her hand, he shifts to look out the window, watching the scattered people down below.]
