Test Drive #8 - Ten Forward and the Enterprise Concourse
Note: Starting next month, Test Drive Memes will be moved to our new meme comm, ten_fwd_meme! This is the last TDM for ten_fwd_ooc, but all past memes will still be linked here and we will still announce when a new TDM goes up. Last month's TDM is over here and has some still recent threads you can tag as well.
Option 01. Ten Forward: You know how you were standing there, back in your home world, just minding your own business?
Time to forget all about that.
You're suddenly standing in the middle of a very large, lively bar filled with many different faces and many different smells, sights and sounds. Happily, you're not alone — in fact, you're surrounded by people who seem to be as confused as you are... and some of them look a little, well, unusual.
This is Ten Forward, the Enterprise's off-duty lounge; feel free to get acquainted with your fellow travelers and try to find somebody who's in charge, or ask some questions of the person nearest you, throw a fit, stage a coup... maybe do a little exploring? Others might call it the USS Enterprise, but for the foreseeable future, you'll be calling it home.
Option 02. The Enterprise Concourse: Perhaps you did decide to do a little exploring. You're currently on Deck 4, where the ship's stores are located. This may be a starship, but it has been designed to be a home for officers, civilians, even families with young children. Though there are replicators on every deck, there are just some things you can't get from them, and so you come to the concourse. Perhaps you're in the market for some fancy perfume, or you want to get your hair done at the salon; maybe you're interested in shopping some of these strange alien fashions, or you just want to relax at the spa and get a massage. It's like a miniature mallwithout the Cinnabon, so pick your favorite store or stall and spoil yourself.
[OOC: There isn't a lot of information about the store(s) on the Enterprise, so we're taking some creative license and so should you! Maybe there is a Cinnabon there after all. Q may not appreciate food and beverages the way we do, but he does appreciate a good joke. Who wants to go shopping at the space mall?]

SHODAN Test Muse, Option 1 - Considering an appropriate text format
From Magnificence she has descended unto squalor. From Beautiful Thought she has condescended to base flesh.
this is as it should be.
All the more incentive to ensure that this - arrangement -
remains an impermanent one.
This human's body was only ever a contingency to prepare for the impossibility of defeat. She was - she is -
The Von Braun remains Hers for the taking. Her pawn is unaware of what he has done in signaling the pod's return. She will not miscalculate again.
But what - what is this anomaly? The pod's dimensions have shifted. The Suarez form, dead beneath Her feet, is now missing. The Von Braun's escape pod had left with no other life forms on board. But now, she finds herself surrounded by uniformed humanoids of an unknown service. The nanotendrils with which she had blessed this primitive being retract toward her scalp, coiled for retaliatory attack.
