WHAT: The "Monologue With The Moon" player plot!
WHERE: [emphatic shrug]
WHEN: 1/6/24
WARNINGS: Possible references to murder, violence, related dark themes, medical equipment, Omelas Kid™ Scenarios, shady institutions and their operations, etc.
You are standing in a nondescript, space-age sort of room; the walls are a silver metal so polished that you can almost see shadows of a reflection in it, and the floor is likewise sturdy and reinforced. There are two Star Trek-style sliding doors leading out of the room, one on the left wall and one on the right. Both are currently in open position, enabling you to see out into the corridor beyond; it looks pretty much the same out there as your surroundings in here. Maybe there are doors; you'd have to look closer to check.
Currently in the room with you is a pretty normal-looking wooden podium that's clearly seen some use (though in what ways, you'd have to look more closely at it to determine), and a very abnormal-looking escape portal that's just kind of floating in midair, definitely big enough for even a very tall human to walk through, but for the fact that it's behind an impenetrable forcefield. You're welcome to hurl yourself at this, hit it, whatever, all that you want, but unfortunately it ain't budging under any method currently available to you or your party.
Really, your circumstances look something like this:
The other thing you might notice is that your clothes have received a slight glam-up, in the sense that clipped to a pocket, lapel, belt loop, or other convenient area of your attire is some sort of ID card. That might be worth having a look at.
Speaking of having a look at things, maybe you ought to look around?

You're already a test subject in this city. [And they didn't come with ID cards, did they.] And isn't that an obvious answer with you? You can't die because you're already dead.
no subject
An obvious answer, maybe, but one that creates so many more questions; when is the last time you saw a dead thing get up and move around and look as alive as I do, hm? Surely that question alone is worth a few scribbles on clipboards.

Mm, it seems likely. Metal walls are something of a classic for alien fiction, or the interior of a space-ship. The clinical quality of it lends itself well to the setting of a laboratory. Though I don't see any gurneys or medical equipment out here to make my feeling a certain one. The podium being a different material from all else entirely, leaves the whole theme feeling a little muddled.
[ A shrug. ]
Perhaps not a lab, then. I like the fantasy of being studied for the curiosity of what could be found out, but somehow I don't think I'll be getting any of my overarching questions answered today.

No-one I know immediately comes to mind.
