doghasitsdayThe technology in this place has given me much pause and so much to think about. I wouldn't consider myself a techie by any stretch of the imagination; I've got a more literary mind, I think. Still, perhaps things would have been different if I had come from a later generation. These journal devices alone are advanced far beyond anything I could find in the year I before the back home. The ship itself is a marvel. Since I've been up and about I've taken time to explore when I could, and I know there's rooms here that are a lot bigger than should be physically possible, given the space allotted. The way the ship moves: it looks like we're in space, but there's nothing really separating us from the open air. Does the barge produce its own atmosphere? There's things about the system here that I'd like to better understand, too. Nobody really explained the last time I asked. I think I'm an Inmate. No one's really told me. And I know that guy...the Admiral, assigned a bunch of people together. Inmates with Wardens. Is that what I'm waiting for? A Warden? How long does that usually take? I'd appreciate whatever answers can be given me. --Harold Emory Lauder

And there are periodic anomalies that alter your perceptions, your body, your sense of self, your memories... And there's no way to prevent them-- or, rather, none that anybody's uncovered yet.
Essentially, you'll be mindfucked, sometimes literally fucked, and everybody will treat it as business as usual.

Date: 2011-06-23 01:05 am (UTC)College is certainly more stimulating than high school, but there are plenty of people who are only there to get drunk, have sex, ignore the intended purpose of higher education. It can be something of a disappointment at times. And peers aren't always much better. [But Rex was a snotty little child prodigy, SO YOUR MILEAGE MAY VARY.]
This is an odd question... but are there zombies in your world?
