unknownseas | WEEK 1

Well, you've now met the brains of the operation, as well as the shockingly nice-looking young lady in charge of day-to-day business. Now all that's left is to get used to your accommodations - there's 24 other people in similar shoes to yours to meet in this building, you know! And who knows how much longer you might have them...

The daily routine in the facility quickly becomes obvious - the only way to tell time moment to moment is to check the strange device The Professor gave you, but at the same time every day the lights in and out of the facility go up, and at the same time every night they go down. Otherwise, it's almost maddening sometimes, how little happens in here. At least you have a few rooms with enough to hopefully keep you occupied. Who knows what secrets they might hold? And there's always that vending machine, if you can find something that fits in the coin slot...

She wouldn't tell me the date or moon phase, though, and he only told her the year through an earpiece she was wearing. I'll bet she doesn't know much herself. I've heard of ivory tower academics, but losing track of time is a bit much.

Tch, of course. She'd have to be ignorant to act so happy in a place like this.

What are the odds she just lives down here?

[ There's a beat before she speaks, as if to someone who's just stated the extremely obvious. ]

He already said that. [ okay technically he didn't, but... ]

You know what I mean, imbecile. Obviously she works down here, but I meant in general. Her profile did say she wanted to see the world outside, didn't it?

So you think she's been living in this hole her entire life, waiting for us to show up? Ridiculous.

Do you think any of this situation isn't ridiculous? Be honest with yourself.

Everything on this ruined shell of a planet is ridiculous. I stopped keeping
track of that ages ago.

What else did she say to you?

Nothing of use. He's clearly feeding her information via audio in realtime, so I'm certain he's listening to her conversations, even as she claims they're confidential.
