Where a kid can be a kid...or something
The Discovery Zone / Chuck E. Cheese's / Arcade Meme
If you were a kid during the 80s or 90s, I don't have to explain. Everyone remembers those meccas of fun that were awesome, yet somehow still smelled vaguely of stale pizza and shame. Whether you're hanging out in the tubes, jumping in the moon bounce, or shooting some hoops, you're sure to have a blast.
Well, even if you don't, it's not like you can leave. As big as this place is, there seems to be no door. So you might as well just sit back and win some tickets.
HOW TO PLAY:
1. Comment with your characters.
2. Others will reply, rolling the RNG for the scenario.
3. Have shenanigans. Feel free to make wacky crossovers, since you're all stuck in here together.
SCENARIOS:
1. The slide
2. Ball pit
3. Climbing wall
4. Moon bounce
5. The tubes
6. The little viewing bubble
7. Skeeball
8. Hoop shooting
9. Arcade games
10. The claw machine
11. Laser tag
12. Harassing the poor guy in the mascot suit
13. It's your birthday party!
14. For some reason, you work here.
15. Wildcard

Cloud's much more the play it safe and keep your head down type, at least when it's a situation that isn't quite life or death. He's fast (and that's about his only asset, given his lacking aim and generally unremarkable reaction time), but also rather prone to tripping up.
He can't risk darting out into the open, first, either, so when he leans out again and sees (or thinks he sees, at any rate, it's kind of dark in here and what's with all the flashinglights?) another tiny flash of movement farther down along the short wall obstructing his view, he stays low and starts in the opposite direction along his side of the cube.
If she's thinking of breaking cover, he'll be prepared to catch her in the act! ]

A chocobo perhaps?But she loses sight of him just as quickly and she glares at the foam cubes, the pillars, the random areas that provide cover. This isn't going very well.Looking up, she considers climbing up to the ceiling, but that would probably be cheating. Not that Yuffie cares all that much, but she would be vulnerable long enough for him to get a shot in.
Clearly being sneaky isn't working for her. She needs to scare him out.
She manages to find a tiny ball - probably from the ball pit. How it got in there, she has no idea, but it'll work. So she throws it as hard as she can in the general direction she saw his hair, then does a crouched dash through the middle of the room, hoping he is sufficiently distracted.]

Wait, is that the sound of someone running?
He hastily lifts his head again to get a look -- and catches sight of a blur of dark color darting across the room. No time to think, he lifts his weapon and fires after the escaping shadow. ]
H-Hey!
[ Throwing stuff is cheating, too, you know. ]
no subject
Pleased enough to start boasting.]
Nobody can hit a ninja in her natural element!
[Which is apparently...the laser tag area? No matter, Yuffie ignores the fact her statement makes no sense, and she whips around the pillar she was ducked behind, firing quickly in the direction she thinks he's in.
She's in it to win it.]
no subject
[ A ninja?
She looked kind of small, for a ninja. (Then again, who is he to judge?)
It's a close call, but he manages to drop back to the ground fast enough to avoid what could've been a pretty direct hit had he been any slower. Down on his elbows with his (silly, plastic) gun in hand, he makes his way around to the other side of his cover. Can't stay in the same place, anymore, now that she knows where he is, but at least he's beginning to get an idea of what he's dealing with.
Know your enemy -- or something. That's important, right?
He risks another peek out into the open. Maybe all it'll take to lure her out again is patience. She definitely doesn't seem like the type of person who has a lot of that to spare. ]
no subject
When she risks a look again, she honestly can't tell if he's moved or not. Cocking her head to the side, she listens carefully for any sounds of rustling.
That about runs the end of her patience, and she decides to try to provoke him out. She's awesome at provoking.]
Can't hide like a little girl, you better come out and face me one on one.
[Yuffie also excels at being quite the hypocrite, seeing as she's a little girl who's hiding, but those are minor details. She does a ridiculous half crouch run across the room recklessly, her eyes peeled for her opponent.]
