A rude awakening

[ima_npc]

[You awaken from a deep sleep. You are groggy and cold and feel off in ways that may be initially difficult to place. The door to your stasis pod opens. How did you get here? That's a really good question. Who are you? That's another.]

[Step outside into the warmer (albeit not especially warm) room and you'll see the others, all dressed in a similar style of stasis suits. One or two of them are wearing the same colors as you, though it's perhaps hard to tell with the dim, red glow that fills the room.]

[The doors are closed. There is no apparent way to open them. And a robotic voice intermittently rings through the room:]

Life support is being restored to the facility. Please stand by.

Maybe...whoever's running this facility?

[unexpectedboner]

...You'll have to refresh me on who that is. Apparently last night involved some sort of wild party, I'm guessing?

[the_rogue]

A party would explain why I can't remember anything right now...

[unexpectedboner]

A pajama party would explain the weird costumes! More or less.

[the_rogue]

What about the part where we just stepped out've cold storage?

[unexpectedboner]

...Frat hazing?

[the_rogue]

Pretty intense hazing.

[unexpectedboner]

They should really do something about that. I don't remember ever losing my memory this badly before. It's kind of embarrassing...

[the_rogue]

We can bring it up to the dean whenever he shows his face. Or she.

[unexpectedboner]

Yeah... You don't think we're missing class, do you?

[the_rogue]

I don't think we really care about class if we party this hard.

[unexpectedboner]

Man... Now I'm worried about our future. I hope some of these guys are rich enough to get us good jobs later...

[the_rogue]

I'm sure we'll figure out some way to take care of ourselves.

[unexpectedboner]

Hope so... Life support, that sounds hard...

[the_rogue]

Maybe... Or it could be simple as pushing a button.

[unexpectedboner]

So any button we press could suddenly turn off the life support? --Where are we that we'd need life support anyway? I feel like that's not a normal thing.

[the_rogue]

That's...a really good question.
