Day One: Awakening
Who: EVERYONE!
What: Awaking up and Orientation to the Cooler
When: Day 1 (September 1st & 2nd)
Where: The Cryopod hall and Residential Area
Warnings: Mostly nudity and language, please label individual threads if need be
Arrival:
Your last memories are a haze as consciousness drifts back into your mind. You awaken on something hard, but lined, an uncomfortably upholstered bed of some kind, and a hiss of escaped air accompanies a door before you opening and raising slowly upward and out of the field of your slowly focusing vision. The entire surface on which you’re reclined rocks forward and places you on solid ground on shaky limbs and the chill of your surroundings sends gooseflesh swelling across every inch of your entirely bare form.
Naked, confused, and disoriented as you try to assess the situation (like the echoing click so loud in the otherwise silent chamber), a spotlight glares to life before you, washing out your vision momentarily. You’re vaguely aware of others, other cries or gasps of shock, other shafts of light directed at other strange bed chambers much like the one in which you so recently awoke.
Before you’re able to shrug off the initial disorientation, a disembodied female voice chimes through the darkness.Despite its slightly cheery tone, something may seem a bit...off about it, but that may just be nerves…
Residential Area:
When the blast doors open, you can see into an area that resembles…. A rundown college dormitory, complete with kitchen and living areas? Well, thankfully, it’s coed, or the boys would just have to sleep in their pods, right? There are many rooms in a corridor, with names flashing on the displays near the door. Maybe you should try and find your own? How far this corridor goes is hard to tell, as everyone’s rooms seem to be near the top of the hall.
However, should you decide to go further down, there’s no lighting and the temperature will drop steadily. Maybe LACUNA doesn’t want you to go down there.
In the kitchen areas, there appear to be other blast doors that might be able to open, but there’s no indication that they have in a very long time. Where they open out to is impossible to see, since windows seem to have been conveniently forgotten.
[OOC : For more information about what to do and see, click here. Please feel free to make your own top-levels or continue action threads from the test drive here. Or start new ones! Whatever your heart desires is pretty much up for grabs here. Just know that LACUNA is watching and listening to everything you do and say.]

no subject
She's not the one to back down though when she can be useful. She has to live up the legacy left to her by a certain SOLDIER.
"You're very welcome. You might want to soak your clothes to make sure the blood doesn't set in. There are a few spots, true, but blood is really the worst to get out."
Trust her. She knows.
no subject
"Oh, you have a point."
He would see to that. They at least had been provided two sets of clothes.
"Though I would like to ask the name of the kind soul who healed me."
no subject
Not that she's really been injured that much, but she's had to get blood out of sky blue fabric and it's not at all easy.
"Oh, yes, I guess I should have introduced myself before I touched your face." Whoops! She puts her hands behind her back and clasps them together. "I'm Aerith Gainsborough of Gaia. And you are?"
no subject
He smiled though at her introduction and dipped his head politely. Still very glad that he can actually do that without pain.
"Obi-Wan Kenobi of... Coruscant I suppose."
Right now, where he's from is a bit complicated.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Gainsborough, despite our current circumstances."
no subject
She shrugs happily and unclasps her hands so they can talk easily while stepping back a few steps.
"Please, just call me Aerith. I've never been 'Miss Gainsborough'. I don't think I'd know to respond to it."
no subject
"Not so strange considering how big the galaxy is."
He's assuming they're still in is actually. Why wouldn't they be?
"Though I've never heard of Gaia. You must come from some unknown region."
no subject
And she's not sure she'd want to because she just wants to go home.
"We're aware of other worlds and of other races in space, but... we don't have the best track record with aliens."
no subject
Traveling to other worlds could be exciting, Obi-Wan himself was fond of different places, but obviously there's not many who could like where they were now.
"What is your home like?"
no subject
Well, she's not talking about some of the people here so far, but that's okay too.
"And it's hard to describe Gaia in a few words. It's very diverse. I lived in the largest city, but there were jungles and deserts and mountains and not far from my city, there's a huge marshland with lots of animals everywhere."
no subject
It would be rather inconvenient if they had to share this place with hostile animals. Of course, they technically did with at least one.
"Sounds like a very fertile and beautiful planet. Reminds me of at least a couple I know very well. I'd been getting very intimate with deserts before I got here."
