Look from far away and see if the woman has an id tag.
If she does we most likely will need to get that one before the door will open.

[Duelmaster409]

Does the ID fit into the slot? If so, use it.

Yeah, you guess the ID looks like it could fit in there. You struggle to unequip your ID card for a while and eventually tear it out from the fabrics, leaving an unsightly tear on your shirt. Oh well, at least you've taken it off. You tenderly insert the metal object into the slot - who would've known, it's a perfect fit! However, it doesn't appear to be doing anything immediately.


You pull the card out.



Your photo begins flashing rapidly. You're not quite sure what this means.


Look from far away and see if the woman has an id tag.

You give the woman a courtesy glance... yep, she's got one. You're pretty sure you already knew that, but whatever. She returns the glance at you looking rather emotionless.

You get the feeling putting her ID in the machine is a good idea, as it will likely open a door nearby. But you don't see any doors in this room... for some reason this now brings a very large wave of panic.

[Twi]

Grab her ID and place it in the machine.

[Duelmaster409]

Grab her ID and place it in the machine.




You approach the woman, whom reaches out to you with her mouth open. Just as you have selected the appropriate words to present her with, a loud stretched-out *BLEEEEEP* emanates from what appears to be the entire room. The sound quickly turns into a low-pitched klaxon moan, which seems to pierce your mind and fill you with waves of incomprehensible fear.

The woman is also having a similar reaction, only she bursts into tears.




The terrifying sound is shortly accompanied by flashing lights. IT'S TIME TO GET YOUR PARTY ON!

... If you weren't flipping the hell out right now. Maybe later.

[Twi]

EJECT!
But seriously, continue with your attempts to ACTIVATE THE MACHINE.

[Duelmaster409]

... continue with your attempts to ACTIVATE THE MACHINE.

Okay, okay! Calm down! You're pretty sure you remember buttons or something on the machine on the wall. Maybe you can tone down the noise, and maybe the lights too!



Amidst all the freaking out, you did not notice the mechanism on the wall is gone! What?!

[Twi]

Crap!
Panic!
Ask the woman what to do.
Look out the window.

[dwarfguy2]

Wake up.

[Duelmaster409]

Wake up.

You beg your pardon?!


Ask the woman what to do.



You call out to the woman while touching the bare wall where the panel-machine thing once was. She does not respond. After you confirm that there is no panel here, you turn your attention towards the woman; over the deafeningly loud klaxon noise, she appears to be peacefully looking into the black and white void.



Name the dotted blackness "space".

WELL GEE, THAT MAKES SENSE! You guess you never thought of that.




Look out the window.

You decide to join the woman and stargaze through the window.




It's so peaceful out there... you wonder why you didn't try this before. It takes your mind away from all the noise and lights of the room. Almost enough to not notice that the color of the lights appears to have changed a slight bit, but you doubt it's really important. Right now, all you want to do is stare at these god damn stars with this weird mute woman. The window seems surprisingly cold. You somehow know that the vacuum of space is not technically cold, so as to why the window is cold is a mystery. In fact, you doubt this is even a window; if it were, thousands and thousands of microscopic asteroids would have probably made a hole in the window or A HUNDRED! You don't know how you know any of this stuff, but you doubt it's relevant.


You see something off to the distance.

[Twi]

Learn sign language, communicate with woman.

[dwarfguy2]

No, you are... INSIDE A GIANT MONOLITH.
MY GOD, IT'S FULL OF STARS!

[Orb]

Search the walls for some kind difference somewhere. Is it all the same color, are there no bumps or indentations?

[Duelmaster409]

Search the walls for some kind difference somewhere. Is it all the same color, are there no bumps or indentations?

No, you're pretty sure you felt the wall thoroughly; there are no traces of the machine anywhere. It's a big mystery, yes!



Learn sign language, communicate with woman.

That is preposterous to ask of yourself! I mean, come on, how will you learn sign language from nothing! Auuurgh! You're so fucking stupid! You wager she's not even deaf OR mute; she probably doesn't want to talk to you! While this is slightly concerning, you are too busy stargazing to ca-- OH GOD!






There is certainly something huge happening out there; a light blue streak of SOMETHING just impacted onto a wall nearby! The entire room shudders and groans as metal is bent and destroyed. A portion of the room has been shifted or destroyed revealing a small diagonal crack that a 2-dimensional ASCII man could certainly fit through but not see through!

You turn to the woman, who is as speechless as you, and then back into the void of space. There is now a lot of activity going on outside!





You are absolutely baffled by the bursts of rich colors and speed of some passerby objects. The woman is obviously amused, emitting soft "oooh"s and "aaah"s. However, you quickly conclude that this show isn't one worth sticking around for.
