Setting: Telling you would totally ruin the chapter. If you really can't figure it out, review and I'll tell you. But, you know, you can always review if you do know, too. ;)
Sense of Place/Setting
Create an indoor or outdoor setting rich in detail.
Silver. A room covered in reflective surfaces that look high-tech, clean, and modern all at once. If it isn't silver, it's glass or holds a ridiculous amount of shine.
In the atrium of the room is a large, rectangular, and, of course, silver platform surrounded on all sides by a few bars to keep people or expensive equipment from falling off. The floor of the platform is heavily textured, giving it an almost grated appearance, so that any bodily fluids do not create a dangerously slippery surface and lawsuit.
Four beams on each corner of the platform rise up. Each individual beam is made of four posts in the shape of a square. Between these run short support beams attached vertically at angles. The four main support beams help hold up the lights to illuminate the room at night. Otherwise, during the day, the giant v-shaped sunroof illuminates the building.
Behind the main few steps for the platform, and to the right, is an older-looking wooden staircase, an odd addition to the room. These polished steps lead to the upper, suspended bridge that goes along the perimeter of the building. Along this pathway is a private lounge with an orange couch, green pillows, a table, and some chairs. It is the perfect spot to see the happenings below.
To the right of that staircase is her office. Unlike the rest of the property, her space is colored in a warm orange. Against the wall of windows sits her worn couch. Chairs separated by a long coffee table sit opposite the couch. To the left of the sitting area is her desk, covered with papers.
Standing on the upper level on the building, they leaned their forearms and elbows on the railing and observed the scene below. The colorful lights bounced off the slick, shiny surfaces. People crowded together on the platform, their bodies brushing to a felt beat. A sign hanging above the platform flashed blue and yellow.
The Lab, their home away from home.
