Day 296 — Real MarinaNova — Central Core Awakening
[The last thing you remember is walking through a glowing door. Whether that was a good decision or a bad one is going to depend heavily on how claustrophobic you are, because right now you are fully encased in a very streamlined, sophisticated pod. It is regulating your body temperature, monitoring your vital signs, administering nutrition and dozens of other odds and ends to keep your body functional and healthy during its stay.

You're not usually conscious for this part of things. If you were, it would be a pretty boring experience. On the plus side, there aren't any tubes or wires attached to you. Those are a little too outdated for technology like this. The other plus is that you can open your pod hatch with a push. Luckily for you, those muscles in your arms and legs haven't atrophied. That's part of the science, but it's not perfect. There will be some aching and discomfort.

Take a minute to take stock of everything. You're wearing a bodysuit you don't remember putting on. You're in a giant, spiraling room you've never set eyes on before and your powers—if you have any—are blocked. But you're not alone. There are other people pushing their own pods open or lying still and silent in theirs. In fact there is a very large number of pods. You might not recognize everyone, but that doesn't mean they weren't an inmate at one time—they were even if it was brief.

For the moment there are no bots coming for you, no alarms going off that you can hear, and no immediate threats. The space is vast and the doors aren't locked, but you also might not recognize them as doors or understand how to activate them just yet.]

(OOC: This mingle is for those who went through the doors only. There will be two additional mingles for those who went through the doors and one for those who stayed behind. This mingle should be confined to the central core. The next one will be for exploring. EVENT INFORMATION | REAL MARINANOVA INFORMATION. Make sure to read these links. They have additional information you'll need for this setting.)

But why would they be kept here? [He's talking to himself, for the most part. Of course Deanna doesn't have these answers; no one does.] They are taxing the wardens' resources by being here, and if they are fully unconscious, they are making no progress towards being rehabilitated. There must be a purpose in keeping them here.

[He turns his full attention to Troi.] Is it upsetting, seeing them like this? You must have known many of the people here.

[Chekov recognizes a few from the City, like Doctor Brown. If he took a moment to process feelings--and really, who has time for that?--he might notice that he's a little upset himself.]

[ deanna definitely doesn't have those answers so she just shakes her head gently at his words. no ideas here. ]

It is. [ wow what a question. she hesitates and then glances down the row of pods towards one in particular in the distance. ] My husband is just down that row. It's very difficult to see him like that, but... at least I know he's alive.

[ that's enough, now that she's gotten herself calmed down from her initial shock and breakdown. ]
