TEST DRIVE #2 - The Holodeck/Ten Forward

[tenforward_m]

Where were you a minute ago? Well, you aren't there anymore. Instead, you're standing in a very large, dark room lined with yellow. There are doors at either end of it.

Here's where things get a little choose your own adventure-y. You could:



1: Approach a console filled with buttons, located a few feet away. Press one, and it'll let you out of the room. Travel down a long hallway and you'll be in Ten Forward, the Enterprises' entertainment lounge. Have a drink, mingle and try to figure out why you're here.

OR

2: Maybe you just muttered some vague request under your breath. Maybe you wished aloud you were somewhere else. Or for help? If you did, might be in a fire station. Muttered something about killing whoever dumped you here? Surprise - you're in a slasher movie!

Though they're confusing, these visions feel about as real as they can be. And guess what - other people can experience those fantasies with you, as if they too were really there. How ever will you escape? Or do you want to?

[OOC: Welcome to the Holodeck! If you choose this option, whatever your character chooses to say out loud will cause a virtual reality program to load and play. While your character feels as if what they're experiencing and seeing is quite real, they're purely living through the latest and best in what he Enterprise has to offer in entertainment. Make sure to detail what your character's fantasy is, so that those threading with them will know how to react.

Open til next month's test drive!]

His eyebrows lift in surprise at her description of the role and crew of the Enterprise, because it sounds very familiar.

Yes, Stargate Command is an operational command of the United States Air Force, and they do aim to take the fight to the Goa'uld for the sake of the people of the galaxy, but the chance to expand their knowledge informs so much of what they do.

"That sounds like what we do. Our organization's technically military, but I'm a civilian and we've got a lot of civilian scientists working with us, too. We've got warriors on my team, but we've also got an astrophysicist and a social scientist."

And between the four of them, they make a pretty good team. Or, he'd like to think so.

"I guess I will," he says, his grin flashing at her before he takes another sip of his drink. "I would never have thought there'd be something like this out there."

"Is that right?"

She sounds less surprised than she does amused. Giving him her full attention, she presses him to go on. It's obviously something he enjoys talking about.

"So the way you go exploring is different from this?"
