TEST DRIVE #002



TEST DRIVE #002


( 0 0 1 ) » WAKE UP
Were you asleep or were you unconscious? It doesn't matter: when you come to, there's an odd taste in your mouth and there's a low-level mechanical hum in the air. Your head hurts and you feel nauseous. You aren't anywhere you know: everything around you is metal, from the floor you lie on all the way to the ceiling. You are dressed in a jumpsuit you definitely weren't wearing before.

"We tried to save the world. I think— I think we did the opposite."

The message repeats on a loop. If you look for its source, you find a comms device on the floor next to you. The logo on its wallpaper says REVERIE TERMINAL. Upon closer inspection, you find the same logo on your jumpsuit.

Welcome to your new home. What choice do you have but to explore your surroundings?
( 0 0 1 . 1 ) » WAKE UP WHERE?
When you wake up, you find that you're not alone. But more importantly, you find that you're in a closet. An empty closet, bar you and your new companion. It's small, cramped, and there is no door that you can see. The ceiling is low, there is barely any lights, only some coming from the tiny flashlight clipped to your suit's shoulder. You cannot be sure that there is any air coming in to the room.

Are these grooves in the wall supposed to mean something?



( 0 0 2 ) » OBSERVATION DECK
There were no windows in the corridor you woke up in and no windows in any of the crew quarters you might have checked for occupants — but there are plenty of windows on the uppermost level of the station, deck 1. In fact, there are windows from floor to ceiling all along the circumference of the station's circular deck, and it's possible to walk along it all. What it shows is a strange solar system you've never seen before and a planet that might resemble one you know, but certainly isn't the same.

You're in space. You don't know where you are. Neither does anyone else.




( 0 0 3 ) » BAR
On deck 3, you find the bar. Tucked away from the crew quarters, it's dimly lit, there are bar stools thrown down on the floor and what looks like some very old drink spills, crusty and dark against the bar top. But there is alcohol here, or at least, what you think is alcohol, in bottles with faded labels, most of them indecipherable. Take a drink, get drunk, start a fight, or start a party? You're stuck on this station, might as well make the most of it, right?




( 0 0 4 ) » SPACEQUAKES
One second, you are is walking. Magnetic boots are on, the ground feels solid enough, for a metal deck in a space station. Everything is perfectly fine, or at least as fine as it can be, given that you still don't know where you are or how you came to be here.

The next moment, it's like everything explodes around you. You're thrown against the wall as sparks erupts from electrical panels, as the whole station rumbles and shakes around you. You fall to the deck, earning yourself scratches from the grating. When you look up, it's like nothing has happened. No wires hanging from open panels, no flickering lights, no more shaking. Like an earthquake in space.




( 0 0 5 ) » NETWORK
The comms device you found next to you when waking up connects to a station-wide network, REVERIE NET. You have the option to post video, voice or text messages.

What will you share?



( 0 0 6 ) » WILDCARD
The station features a variety of locations, from sleeping quarters free for the claiming to a dirty swimming pool and a bar that still holds alcohol (though some of the bottles seem to have been opened a while ago).

Go wild, but don't wreck the place. It's your home for the foreseeable future, after all.

001 Wake up

[ The voice rings distantly in his ears as wakefulness begins to slowly come into his mind. It felt like his head was pounding, like someone hit him over the head with a sack load of bricks. There's a groan of pain that escapes the teenager's throat as he clutches at his head with one hand, using the other to slowly push himself off the ground. The eyes open slowly, light filtering in as he finally gets a look at his surroundings.

The look of outright confusion is prominent on his face at the unfamiliar, grimy hallways. Sure the domes didn't look any better but this definitely wasn't his Dome. How'd he get here? Who put him here? With confusion surmounting he almost doesn't notice the voice repeating itself until his foot kicks the comm. He glances down looking at it, picking it up and turning it over. What the hell was going on? Finally, it's the jumpsuit he finds himself in that really tips over the confusion into anger; ]


What the fuck is going on!? [ The voice is definitely that of a teen's and Glitch clearly wasn't sounding too happy. Both fear and anger were dripping into him now and any noise was liable to make him jump...which so happens something does. There's a jerk and he looks over down the dark hallway; ]

Who's there?!

003 Bar
[ He had definitely just started wandering this place, to see if there were any tunnels that would lead back to his dome. Wherever this was it sure to have some kind of accessway back to his dome. Which has led him to this strange sort of place. Bottles lined the shelves and curiously Glitch approached snagging a oval shaped one off the wall. Looking at the cork he unceremoniously yanks it off, giving the contents a sniff before letting out something of a gagging noise. He turns to whomever is nearby with his face scrunched up after smelled the unpleasant liquid.]

Ugh, what the fuck is this stuff? You got any idea? [ Though why he's talking to a stranger at all well...right now he's in an unknown place. May as well assess who's useful or trustworthy and who's not. ]


005 Network

Un: Glitch

Hey, who the fuck knows what's going on or is in charge of this shit? From my understand I'm not supposed to be here in the fucking adult dome. Not even 18 yet. So spill.

Hey kid, watch the language!

[Says the man who swears up a storm.]

You even old enough to drink booze?
glitchinthesystem: (Are you sure that's legal)

[personal profile] glitchinthesystem 2018-07-12 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ Now this is definitely a curiosity. He hadn't really been looking at the person he was talking to but now actually getting a good look at them...

This guy was old. Like REALLY old. Like he's only ever seen people this old in the vids. He doesn't even bother answering the question right away he just replies back; ]


You're fucking ancient looking. [ Now back to alcohol he gives a shrug. ]

I dunno. Probably? Been old enough to do a lot of things. Doesn't answer the question though what BOOZE is.

What the fuck? I'm just 53 years old, I haven't even lost any of my teeth yet!

[Fucking kids who think they are everything. Also swearing.]

It's alcohol. What we drink when we want to toss our emotions on the side and forget about things for a while.
glitchinthesystem: (Are you sure that's legal)

[personal profile] glitchinthesystem 2018-07-12 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
And? You're the first 53 year old I've ever seen. Not even sure WHY I'm in this dome with people this old, at least right now.

[ Flat, toneless and 100% honest. Because he's never even interacted with some old adult until now.

As for the explanation on alcohol he gives the bottle a wrinkled nose kind of look. ]


That sounds pretty fucking stupid. Seems to be that's a good way of getting killed if it makes you forget.

[ and he's not even going to gently put it back, just literally tosses it behind him with a crash as he goes to rummage through more of the shelves. ]
