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.

Comments

Jack was certainly not expecting an adult to see him, let alone comment on his landing.

"Uh, no," He said, taking the hand up and brushing himself off a bit. Baby Tooth coming out of his hood to shaking her head, a bit dizzy from the landing. Jack shrugged at her. "Normally, I don't end up in random bars since I'm usually outside. Wind isn't here, either."

He was cut off from the Wind, actually. Which was a nerve wracking thought.

Some adults are not exactly on the same wavelength as others. Takegami was even less so, having several little ticks that made him a lot less inclined towards acting normal. But he was polite; requesting a soft drink for the two of them without thinking and waving them into a seat.

"I think that there has been a slight shift in worlds." A shrug as he sat down and crossed his legs at the ankles. "Again."

[frostedoverland]

Jack tentatively took the seat but didn't really take the drink. He didn't know what it was nor was he someone who really needed sustenance. "Again? I don't really remember this happening before and I've been around for a very long time."
