Locations ✨
BASE
In every room and bedroom on the base, a flatscreen TV is mounted on the wall in one corner. Though you can turn the TV on and off, it does not seem to be streaming anything at this time.
Common Room
A relaxing area for participants to socialize. The lighting in here is soft neon and changes color every so often, alternating between red, orange, green, grey, purple, gold, pink, and blue. There are several very comfy couches and chairs, side-tables, and coffee tables for you to use as you wish. In each side-table there are notebooks and pens, you heathens. On the wall near a cluster of couches is a TV screen that normally only displays eight symbols on it. If you fiddle with it, however, you have access to a fairly extensive list of romcoms, and some very tasteful softcore pornography.
On the far side of the room is a fully stocked bar. Anything you can think of is in this bar, including garnishes like lemons or salt. There’s the sound of dripping that you can only hear when you’re behind the bar, and it’s just inconsistent enough that you can’t get used to it being in the background.
There’s a hot tub in the corner of the room. The lights at the bottom of the tub follow the neon color changing pattern.
Sleep Bay
Welcome to your sleeping quarters. The Sleep Bay is divided by a hallway, with rooms on either side. Each room has a nameplate with two names on it. At the end of the hallway is a single lamp on the wall.
Check out the rooming page for more information!
Laundry Room
The laundry room has a wall full of washers and dryers, similar to the kind you'd find in a laundromat. Some of the machines don't work, some don't open, and one of them in particular seems like it's always full of water. However, participants will find all items necessary to clean their clothes including detergent, fabric softener, bleach, buckets, washboards and dryer sheets.
Kitchen
The kitchen is state of the art, full of futuristic appliances. Seriously, you’re not even sure what some of these things do. There’s a fridge, two full stove and oven combinations, a walk in freezer, and a pantry. The fridge is always stocked with fresh ingredients, though every once in a while you might find a rotting vegetable or two. Don’t worry, just close the fridge and reopen it, and everything will be fresh again!
Against the opposite wall of all the appliances, however, is a vending machine. It’s touch screen activated. Through a series of menus you can build your own meal that will pop out of the conveyor belt portion of the machine, hot and freshly prepared. You can even pick options that will bundle it up to go. Any food you can think of is on this machine, including foods from home (though if it’s from a restaurant, it’s off-brand. McRonnie’s, anybody?)
Rec Room
There’s just about every form of entertainment you can think of in here. One section has bean-bag chairs and these podchairs. An entertainment cabinet with a TV in it has various movies, video games and board games tucked away inside the drawers. During the initial weekend here, the TV only plays A Recipe for Seduction, presented by KFC. There’s a mini-fridge in the corner with junk food and energy drinks, and an abundant amount of whipped cream cans.
Another section has a couple of knock-off arcade machines, a Dance Dance Revolution machine, table tennis, air hockey, and a basketball hoop.
There’s also a switch on the wall. If you press it, oops, there goes gravity! Enjoy the anti-grav effect. It won’t turn off for an hour.
Gym
GET SWOOOOLE. A spacious room covered in some areas by sturdy floor mats. There’s a smaller boxing ring near the center, complete with mouth guards, head guards, and boxing gloves. Along the walls are various exercise equipment: treadmills, weights, stair masters, and aerobic bikes. Near the ceiling are two pull-up bars for the gals and bros who enjoy competing romantically with their gym partners. For those who want a more relaxing exercise, one corner has a cabinet with yoga mats. In any clear space of wall, there are motivational posters illustrated with buff moogles saying, YOU CAN DO IT! and HANG IN THERE! and MUSCLE MILK GET SWOLE!
Music Room
A large room full of musical needs. One side is neatly organized with one of different musical instruments: a rolling piano, brass, woodwinds, strings, and percussion; if it can play in a band or orchestra, it can be found. There are several three-ring binders of sheets of music from different characters' worlds. On the other side of the room, there's a DJ set-up: a large turntable with thumping audio hookups, and controls for show lights. Unfortunately, the only thing the DJ table plays are frustratingly catch tunes.
In the middle of the room is a slightly raised platform for dancing or playing in groups. Some folding chairs and music stands can be procured from the back wall.
Simulations
This room is completely empty save for the podium in the middle of the room. If you approach this podium, an outline of a hand appears on the top. Upon pressing your hand to this, you’ll hear a voice explain to you that whatever you can dream up can become reality in this room. Go buckwild with virtual reality - it feels, smells, looks, sounds and tastes real.
Just uh, be careful not to get stuck in here. Sometimes you lose track of time, and you end up losing several hours of your life just trying to relive your finest moments. That’s bad, right? Seems like it might be a bad idea to give that much power to one room.
Command Bridge
There are so many buttons and touch screens and levers and switches in here! But none of them budge when you touch them. Everything seems to be running pretty efficiently, though? Occasionally something beeps or flashes, and a button will press, and the beeping will stop. At least someone knows what they’re doing, even if you can’t seem to see them.
There’s also a captain’s chair in the middle of the room. Engage.
Conference Room
Not much here. There’s a long glass table at the head of the room with eight comfy, black office chairs behind it and a large flatscreen TV on the wall above. Two more tables line the walls to the left and the right of the entrance, several chairs available to hold at least forty people. There is also what appears to be a window on the left wall, though there is nothing of interest to look at. Just plain darkness.
Execution Hall
This room branches off from the conference room via a small, airsealed door. Once two people pass through the threshold the door locks tightly and the lights flicker on to reveal a consistently-changing room. There is a window for observation, but the glass cannot be broken. This room can only be accessed on Sundays during a certain hour.

Library
This room is the perfect place for those looking for a quiet place to study. Rows upon rows of shelves line the room, each crammed with an extraordinary amount of books. Many of them are nonfiction, but every now and then you can find fictional novels in various genres. Strangely, you can also find quite a decent amount of manga and a few anime DVDs. The room also has a few comfortable couches and plush chairs, along with wooden tables equipped with small lamps for late night reading.
Dog Park
This room almost doesn’t even seem like a room at all because the moment you step inside all you see is grass for forever. Grassy hills, dirt running paths and small little ponds of water make up a majority of this room but more importantly there are several dogs freely roaming the area. Dogs of all sizes can be found here, and most of them are very friendly and ready to play! You may wish to be careful though, because there’s something a bit…off about them. Did that chihuahua just jump 10 feet in the air? Why is that pomeranian dashing at mach speed? Oh, and watch out for the fire-breathing rottweiler. Assorted kiosks around the park are equip with everything you need including dog food, leashes, and toys. Be sure to give these furry friends plenty of love and affection and they’ll be loyal for your time here.
Airport Terminal
Even if you can’t quite leave this place, you can get the full experience of visiting an international airport right inside this room. The terminal stretches for a good mile, somehow, and though it’s fairly empty quiet music can be heard from speakers in the ceiling for general ambiance. Little kiosks of snacks, beverages and small souvenirs can be found lining the long aisle and there are several rows of chairs to sit in and look out the large, picturesque window. Oh, and speaking of the window, it seems as though the scenery outside is changing. In one part of the terminal, you might see the sunny beach of a tropical island. In another part, you can catch a glimpse of beautiful sakura trees in full bloom. The seasons and locations seem to change at random to reflect your mood. Where would you like to go today?
Research
A lab. There are several big, intimidating computers that are all locked. They require a password to get into them. If you’d like to try to hack these, let the mods know! Otherwise, there are a few tables with microscopes, beakers and weird glass tubes on them; two examination tables connected to what look like IV drips; and a big glass container against the far wall. Inside the glass container is a slimy mass of… something. It shivers when you look at it.
There’s also a machine which resembles an MRI scanner. It won’t open, but there’s a gross sort of fleshy mold that creeps out from inside.
There are stairs to the right which lead to the...
Observing Room
Connected to the Research Lab is a room made entirely of glass. Don’t worry, it’s very thick. Peering out of the glass gives a better view of space around the ship. There’s a telescope and a chair, and various star charts spread out over a desk in the middle of the room. In the distance, stars shine and shimmer, and sometimes meteors race by. Here and there, planets can be picked out both by the naked eye and the telescope, but none of them seem familiar.
