As in many Yume Nikki fangames, Cerasus has many events that can be found throughout the Dream World. However, Cerasus is unique in that these events often contain dialogue, helping to form a vague picture of different real world events in Reshnha's life, and the aims and views of some characters found in the Dream World.
This list of events is not in any particular order. Some events do require specific effects or notes in order to be found or activated.
Please note that most of these events are not officially named.
Stomidori's Slam Poetry Performance
Location: Dead Techno Fields
Summary:
This event will begin right after collecting the Mushroom Effect from the Mushroom Lion. A TV screen will fade in, displaying a curtained room that Stomidori will walk onto, and perform a poem-like speech.
Audio, Video, Disco. Those were the words of the one, the words of many. From a rotting corpse, everyone rises. For tomorrow, everything returns. The universe always spins, running so it doesnt freeze. Audio, Video, Disco. Souls and ideas are like fungi: you cannot kill them in a way that matters. Sonic Armada.
This event cannot be triggered again once viewed.
Unlocks: Mushroom Effect, Mail Message #12
Trivia:
- Stomidori's stage uses the same tileset as the Candy Spades Club.
- "Audio, Video, Disco" can be translated as "I hear, I see, I learn" in Latin.
Burning Classroom
Location: Reshnha's Classroom
Summary:
Interacting with the closet in the classroom has a 1/3 chance of triggering this event. The screen will fade to black, and Reshnha will say the following lines.
What do I think about this war? That's an interesting question... I've never had thought about it before. And really, I think it's a Darwin situation here.
The screen will fade in to reveal that the classroom is now on fire, which Reshnha will be surprised to see. Blood will be on the whiteboard, the desks will be arranged in a circle, and black humanoid figures will be lying around a table placed in the center of the room. Interacting with that table will make Reshnha climb onto it and turn to look around the classroom frantically. He will then just stand there resigned, and begin to think to himself.
[Those who can't adapt, cannot survive.] [But these children, deserved to live.]
Reshnha will then begin to laugh, perhaps at the hopelessness of the situation. The screen will then go black, and will slowly fade into to the original old decaying classroom, however there will now be blue glowing lights floating gently around the room.
Owen's Masochistic Monologue
Location: Lawry's Mansion
Summary:
Interacting with the pie in the kitchen will make the screen fade out, and fade back in to a picture of a pie. A face will fade onto the pie, and Owen will begin to speak.
Long time no see, Reshnha. I've been interested in your...abilities. You see, you're useful to drag down onto the pit with me. I've got so much but if that is your issue, then you could do me a favor. Despite it being filled, it is still lonely... That man, I'd love for him to cut me open with a chainsaw. I know you'd love it too. The machine decimates my outsides, each of the blades digging deeper and deeper into my exterior. Where once laid flesh is now pure metal. But the shell never mattered, the interior is warmer. It's so warm. My breath is so calm, yet it gets a bit faster despite the pain jolting as I feel it reaching into my stomach. His tool, it dilacerates each of my organs, first going through my intestines, tearing each tissue apart as it goes on deeper, all those liquids mixing in and pouring out, trickling from my hole. You're clapping. You see me being loved by him, and you clap. It's my suffering. I accept it. It'll be fine, I tell myself as I feel the saw advancing more into my being. My pain flares up in shock, my mind clouding over in its feeble attempt to protect my sanity. But it is not enough. It's not enough love. I need more of his tool inside me. Just like that, it's taken away from me. I feel dizzy. Warm as I feel him biting on my head. The ultimate result of love is pain, it is an exchange. It feels so good, though. My emptied body, laying down to standing ovation. You'll clap. Maybe you'll get into it too as you quarter me and watch your hands blacken once more. Good night.
The Monarch's Hair
Location: Fruit Fields
Summary:
Interacting with the rambutan tree and collecting the Rambutan Effect will trigger this event, with B.P. suddenly appearing behind Reshnha to speak. A conversation between the two will ensue.
B.P.: The only way to avoid the guillotine is to remove your own head yourself. It is not your fault if you refuse. But you've done that before. R: But, rambutans are peeled, not split open. Despite it all, I know my odds. B.P.: Look at the tree behind you. The old woman had short hair, then your dad had long hair, and your hair, it's a curiosity that escapes me. R: Peasant Father, Noble Son, Monarch Grandson, My family is not your issue. Put your nose somewhere else. B.P.: Bye.
B.P. will then disappear, ending the event.
This event cannot be triggered again once viewed.
Unlocks: Rambutan Effect, Message #10, Picture #5
Blue Twitching Peacock
Location: Heaven Temple
Summary:
There is a small room behind a waterfall in the left section of the Heaven Temple. Entering this room will lead Reshnha to a small room with a screen in the wall. Interacting with it will begin a full screen event with a rapidly distorting image of a blue peacock-like bird. Once the event ends Reshnha will simply just say "Ah.", "Nice.", or "Wow."
Angel In The Marble
Location: Heaven Temple
Summary:
Entering the highest temple with flaming chess pieces will lead Reshnha to a green statue of a Seraph. Interacting with the statue will collect the Seraph Effect, and the statue will turn into a blue seraph. A conversation will ensue between it and Reshnha.
S: Thank you, brother, for freeing me from such a binding situation. Despite all the sins you've done, and all the suffering you've caused, you still have a sincere good in your robotic heart. Heaven shall always send you kind regards. Please remember, even if you fall down onto the abyss of hell itself, the Time Hermit shall welcome you back onto His arms if you seek penance for your acts. For He is the one who shall clean all souls from impurity, and all souls will reach His domain. Faretheewell, Reshnha. R: You're welcome, you.
The seraph will then fly out the window, ending the event.
This event cannot be triggered again once viewed.
Unlocks: Seraph Effect, Message #9, Picture #4
Flight of the Seraph
Location: Heaven Temple
Summary:
Interacting with the open window now accessible after collecting the Seraph Effect and having it equipped will cause Reshnha to fly out into the sky. The screen will fade in and out into white to show that Reshnha is now flying in the pink sky. This event will be ended upon pressing X, and Reshnha will return to the temple window.
Trivia:
- Reshnha's sprites while flying are smiling, unlike the sprites when the Seraph Effect is used anywhere else.
Execution Exhibition
Location: Suit Cave
Summary:
After entering the small hallway and following B.P. into the exhibition room, Reshnha will be locked into the room, evidenced by him automatically hitting and shooting the door. He will already have the suit effect equipped, even though it isn't officially collected yet at this point. He will remark "I guess it can't be helped." and head down into the room to the victim, surrounded by many suited beings with exploded heads in chairs. Reshnha will then look around the room for a second, and then say "Please forgive me, it'll be quick" before shooting the victim. Applause will ring out through the room, perhaps from the surrounding chairs as Reshnha turns to face them. Suddenly, the entire room will go dark, except for the spot where Reshnha stands. B.P. will emerge from the shadows to the left, and a conversation will ensue between the two.
B.P.: Your nonchalance, it sickens me. You know you died that day. R: I do, it happens. B.P.: How many times have you died, Reshnha? Have you, have you even forgotten? R: I don't remember inconveniences. At this point I might as well forget your face. B.P.: So be it. Enjoy your death.
This event cannot be triggered again once viewed.
Unlocks: Suit Effect, Message #8, Picture #3
Human Flesh Rumination
Location: Computerium
Summary:
Interacting with the flesh filled computerium will cause Reshnha to muse outwardly, followed by Stomidori appearing behind him and beginning a short conversation between them.
R: There's not much difference between this and me. Well, there is a more than a fair few differences. But that's neither here or there or anywhere. This was me once and then I stopped posthaste. S: It goes like this: Through Machine, Unity, Through Pain, Shared via social media. And in his bafflement the machine composed ������ �� ��� �� ��� R: I get you. I get you really badly. Also, why are you not facing me? S: Zoop. R:I said, why are you not facing me. ... Whatever.
This event cannot be triggered again once viewed.
Unlocks: Picture #17
Trivia:
- While in-game, the line after "And in his bafflement the machine composed" is written entirely with the special character "�" as the game does not support the special characters used to write it. However, pasting it as plain text where its characters are supported, it reads "𝓣𝓱𝓲𝓻𝓽𝔂 𝓕𝓼 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓪𝓷 𝓪𝓵𝓵".
Three's A Crowd
Location: Crimson Factory
Summary:
After entering the last room in the Crimson Factory, the menu will be disabled and Reshnha will not be able to leave the room. Any effects equipped will be removed as well. Heading further to the right will make a few lines appear.
Badge Brooms Sweep You Off The Street, Swap You Out, You're Put To Sleep
Reshnha, come here quick! Look what I found!
Eventually, Reshnha will come across Lawry. Interacting with him or coming up to him will start a conversation between the two.
L: Good lord, you're fast when you want to, right? Don't be so sour looking, I'm just japing with'cha. So, check this out! R:...You're not Lawrence. L: Whut'chu talking about? R: You're not him. L: Reshnha, you're blabbering goobedlygook. Let's focus on the important thing for us. Well, this is a bit awkward to tell you. How cannah say it? I've been thinking about getting us... a third member. Come here, let's make him together! 'ts fairer dis way! He should have your hair, Reshnha. R: If that's so, then it's only fair he gets your eyes. L: He looks so pale, though. Only an underhood of teal? R: But, you're pale. L: I know. But I wish I had your color. R: Let's not talk about that. L: Ha ha.
Reshnha will then turn to Lawry in confusion, and Lawry will turn and respond with a blank dialogue box with his sprite having a chromatic aberration-like effect. Reshnha will back away slowly after this, and Lawry will say one last heavily redacted line, with the only un-redacted letters spelling out "goodbye.".
███████g█████o████████████████████ o█████████████████████d█████████b██████████y ██e.
Reshnha will respond as Lawry begins to quickly back away.
Wait up! Wait! You can't run away this time! Take me with you!
Reshnha will run towards Lawry, even jumping as if to try and catch him. He is unsuccessful as Lawry will fade away, leaving Reshnha to silently stare as the screen slowly pans to the left away from Reshnha, revealing 25 B.P.s staring back at him.
The screen will fade to black, and the final lines of the event will appear.
In this day, you died once more. I was too late.
The Crimson Notes will be collected after this.
This event cannot be triggered again once viewed, as the door to enter the room will be locked.
Unlocks: Crimson Notes
Trivia:
- Notably, when the lines "In this day, you died once more. I was too late." are shown, B.P.'s text sound is used instead of the default text sound or Reshnha's text sound.
Hijacked Future
Location: Pastel Future City
Summary:
At the very end of the Pastel Future City's path is a silhouette that Reshnha will automatically back away from and charge towards, pushing it off the edge once it is approached. The screen will fade to black, fading back into an image of B.P. surrounded by pastel-colored shapes, flowers, and a full moon. B.P. will then begin speaking.
Hijacking Complete. Hello, have you heard of the seventh circle of hell? Every time you stabbed them with knives, back there... Was it all fake for you? Would my head twisting be funny for you? Watch, motherlover, watch. There's so much I've seen of you all across the doors. █████████ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄██████▀ ▦▦███▦▦▦▄▦▦███▦▦▄▀ ▦▦██▀ ▦▄▄▄████ ▀ ▄████ ▀ ▄█▦▦▦▄▦█▦▦▦▄▦█▦▦▦▄▦██▦▦▄▀▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ███████████████████████████ ██████ ██████ ███████████████ ██████ █████████████████████ ▜▙▜▜▛▞ ▟▙▞ ▟▛▛▛▞ ▟▛

Unlocks: Royal Notes
Trivia:
- When looking into the files used for this event, B.P.'s sprites are curiously named "BPMeetingThemself".
- B.P.'s speech sounds can be reversed to reveal they are speaking the words seen here. Although, it seems the TTS software is speaking with an accent, or it was written to sound more unintelligible. Listen to it here!
- 🌸Admin Note🌸:
i kinda have a feeling that the squares at the end of B.P.'s speech arent just random garbage. a lot of them are unique unicode squares that could be used to form an ascii art picture, but i could be wrong since i cant figure out how to organize them to form said picture lol
