TEST DRIVE #10 - Cetacean Pool and Ten Forward

[tenforward_m]

#1

Option 001. Cetacean Pool/Aquatics Lab: Of all the places in the world, you open your eyes and you find yourself in a medium-sized aquatics laboratory, filled with various living specimens along with various science officers bustling about trying to maintain order. There's much to explore here (and hopefully, in the crew's opinion, not break), but the main attraction is the large pool at the far end of the lab; enormous but tanklike in appearance, it contains several dolphins happily swimming about, seemingly without a care in the world.

Option 002. Aboard the Enterprise, Ten Forward: You have no idea what just happened. One minute you were home, and now you're on a spaceship, in the middle of a crowded room. It looks like a bar. There are people eating and drinking, some in uniform, others not. Some are clearly aliens.

You've managed to land in Ten Forward a long bar with barstools and a bartender, tables sprinkled throughout, and the far wall is nothing but windows out to space. It looks like a nice lounge, low conversation making the room hum.

Better ask some questions and find out where you are, or just tap the closest person on the shoulder and try to make friends. The bar is open.

He didn't sound crazy though Yuna could understand his reluctance. "You're on the Enterprise." Which she assumed meant nothing to him and continued. "It's a space ship. As to where in space.. your going to have to access the computer."

The locations here meant very little to Yuna so she didn't keep track to where they actually were located. All she knew was that it was far from Earth and far from Spira.

"The Enterprise." She gets it right in one; it means nothing at all. And when she goes onto give him further detail, the very first thing Hiro wants to do is argue. Space travel isn't let's have a giant aquarium in our spaceship levels of advanced.

At least he doesn't have to worry about sounding crazy, anymore. "I'll take the computer. Think you could point it out for me?"

[whereishe]

Yuna smiled and waved him over to a nearby panel. "They have access points everywhere." It wasn't everywhere but it was often enough that Yuna would stop and stare for a bit.

She stepped back wondering if he knew how it worked.

my apologies I couldn't find any info on the console panels so I winged it

He didn't, of course- but at the end of the day the system is mediocre enough to get a handle on quite quickly. His fingers fly across the screen, eyes flicking back and forth as he brings up more and more information, brows raising higher and higher with every line of text.

It reads like one of those old, corny sci-fi movies. But unless Hiro somehow teleported himself into the middle of a random convention, then...the computer was serious. And so was that girl.

"....Unbelievable."

That's all cool

[whereishe]

Yuna watched him curiously leaning up against the wall as he searched through the computer. She didn't really follow his moments but it was interesting watching how he reacted.

"A little." She's been here so long that it feels more natural than it should. "Where are you from?"
