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 sort of wonder in Ion's eyes as he watches the Ferris Wheel make its slow rotation as the young woman explains its function. Those two things in and of themselves paint a pretty clear picture.]

Outside, it must give a wonderful view at the top. [Ion can see the appeal, though it's a bit lost in its surroundings, here.] I can understand why anyone would want to share that with a friend.

[Sheena watches with him, her expression saddening slightly as she nods.]

There was a place back home called Altamira that was on the ocean, so when you got to the top, you could see water one way, and land the other.

[She looked at the rest of the park before giving him a smile.]

Which actually was kinda nice to see with a friend. Although, looking down wasn't too bad if it didn't bother you too much just to see how small everything else on ground seemed to be.
