TEST DRIVE #5 - Low Gravity Gymnasium and Ten Forward

[tenforward_m]

Option 01. Ten Forward: The first thing you see is a bar. A large, lively bar filled with many different faces and many different smells, sights and sounds. This is Ten Forward, the Enterprises' off-duty lounge; feel free to get acquainted with your fellow travelers and try to find somebody who's in charge: this is your new home now, after all...



Option 02. Aboard the Enterprise, The Low-Gravity Gymnasium: The gym is a large room with several alcove-like sections housing the aerobics and martial arts areas, a parrises squares area, an anbo-jyutsu court, and a separate fencing room. While there is normally a zero-gravity area as well, today all of the gym is in zero-gravity conditions.

Zero-gravity can be, well, kind of weird, because it's not like a gradual loss of the pressure holding you to the floor--you may have taken the turbolifts, just expecting to take a leisurely run, or maybe work out with a treadmill to get in some cardio, but the minute you step into the gym you're floating, as is anything you might have been holding or bringing with you.

Do you freak out, start flailing and trying to swim through the air back to where you can escape? Do you make the best of it and tough it out to get your exercise in, or do you start having fun with the sudden game of weightlessness? Pick your personal scenario and have fun with all the other weightless people.

"I am Groot."

It probably wouldn't. Even prisons can't really give him something that would fit him. He is just a little too big. But he is a tree so it's not a big deal.

"...right."

Well, it could be worse. He could be a mean tree alien.

She pushes off the ceiling and hovers there in front of him, tilting her head curiously.

[kindlytree]

He is only mean if the sapient life form in question either has a big price on their head or is just already an all around jerk.

He hates jerks. Rocket doesn't count. Rocket just has a bit of an attitude problem.

She finds herself drifting in a vaguely sideways direction and flails her arms to keep in place.

"So... What do you like to do around here, Groot?"
