[Looking for a power supply doesn’t occur to Loki. Even if there was one at some point, they seem to be long dormant, or shut off at least. Though he does get the distinct impression that they are organic. Not that Loki could ever be sure of such a thing. In all his travels through all the realms, he’s never been anywhere quite like this place.

Loki nods, almost distractedly as he approaches one of the pods and reaches out to touch it.]

Yes, it seems rather solid.

[Probably a good thing. Loki doesn’t want to destroy the pods. That hardly seems like a way to find out more.]

[ If a world traveler hasn't ever seen anything quite like the Golden Peacock before, then there's very little hope for the rest of them. Although Broca is vaguely familiar with some people who have accidentally come from their world onto his, he's never traveled off of Terra until now, and his planet has some wild technology, but nothing that looks quite like these egg pods.

Broca takes a step back, giving himself a nice, full view of Loki interacting with the pods. They remain as inert as they did the first time he saw them though. ]

Any guess what they do?

[ His hopes aren't high for that either, but it doesn't hurt to ask what people's guesses are. ]

[Travelling to different worlds is one thing, but finding a world that pulls people in against their wills to have sex? That is definitely something new.

Loki lays a hand on it and then knocks. The shell his thick, but he’s fairly certain the pod is hollow.]

It is only a guess, but typically pods grow things, or change them. Caterpillars to butterflies and that sort of thing.

[He pauses and looks over his shoulder at Broca.]

I do hope I am wrong about that and whatever they are are never used at all.

[ Broca eyes the pods warily at the comment about the pods growing things, though the comment about changing them gets an immediate tensing up from the big guy, his ears flattening immediately. There's actually a notable step away from the machines now that Loki has made the comment about what pods are likely used for.

Broca was not there on the mission his company went on that involved the usage of an ancient machine called the Sarcophagus, but he'd heard about the sort of beast it transformed the boy who entered it into.

Though here in the Golden Peacock, the kind of transformation it would put someone through would likely be less physical, and more mental given the state it needs people to be in.

The idea isn't any more comforting thing. ]

You and me both.

[Loki might not know Broca very well, but it’s clear as day that his guesses have upset the man. And rightfully so, the conclusions he’s naturally come to are quite upsetting. Loki hopes more than anything that he’s wrong.

It seems they have come to the same conclusion though. It does seem more like this place to want to change someone’s mentality or personality rather than change them physically. He wonders if the pods were once a way for the hotel to change someone’s mind when they did not want to participate.

That thought causes a shiver to run down Loki’s spine.]

I think I have seen enough. I do wish to thank you for bringing me here though. If you are ever in need of help in any matter, do not hesitate to ask.

[He straightens and moves away from the pod.]

If you are not adverse to it, I could teleport us out of here. Any of the public areas or the stairwell in which we met. Wherever you would prefer.

[ There's no way of knowing for sure if Loki's guess on the nature of these pods happens to be right, but it makes more sense to Broca than anything else he's heard of so far. He's certainly familiar with the concept in a second-hand way, and that's enough for him to feel leery of them.

As if this place didn't have enough ways of tinkering with their minds...

His eyes are still on the pods, even as Loki moves back towards him, nodding somewhat absentmindedly at the offer. He is noting it though. While Broca isn't sure if he will need to cash in on that offer, he is someone who takes favors seriously.

For now though... ]

The staircase works fine for me. It's close to my room.

[ And while that means it's too close to this mess, it still keeps him from having to trudge through the whispering hallways one more time. ]

[As someone who is actually able to tinker with someone’s mind himself, even Loki is perturbed by some of the ideas he’s come up with in the last few minutes. He’s done many questionable things in his past, but even he kept messing with peoples minds to a minimum. With the exceptions of the whole sceptre thing of course.

Loki feels a trickle of concern as Broca seems rather distracted. It’s hard to tell what the other man is thinking, considering how quiet he has seemed in general. It’s not something Loki is really used to. But when Broca responds, he lets out a bit of a sigh of relief.

He also feels a little badly that his companion’s room is so close to this mess, but there is hardly anything he can do about it, so he doesn’t say anything about it.]

Excellent. Please hold onto me. And if you have anything like motion sickness, or an easily upset stomach, I recommend you keep your eyes shut.

[ The fact that he's close to these instruments that suddenly have disturbing new possibilities raised doesn't escape his thoughts either, but he'll try not to think about it too much. With the way this hotel works, he somehow doubts even being on higher floors would do him much good if they decided to power these pods back up.

So with a quiet but deep inhale, he'll reach over to put his hand on Loki's shoulder. He's more than ready to get the hell out of here. ]

I don't.

[ Not with the way he and his friends tend to drive cars. They'd be in rough shape if they got motion sick given that. ]

[Everything Loki has learned recently has him concerned about being here in general. Honestly though, he's never really felt good about being here at all. Finding these things has just made him even more concerned for everyone here.

Loki nods and doesn't say anything more as he teleports them back to where they entered the stairwell. When they come to a stop, he shivers lightly, as if he's physically reacting to being away from those things, even if he's not sure he can ever be far enough from them.]

Thank you for taking me there. I owe you.

[ Disorienting, but still preferable to remaining in the basement for one second longer. Chances are good that Broca will be able to fall asleep just as well as he usually does, but the possibilities of what this place has done... may do again in the future will weigh on his mind.

He's already seeming a little more pensive and somehow even quieter than when Loki first came to find him for this tour. His ears twisted to the side as he contemplates the implications of what has been suggested today.

He does let them relax as he glances at Loki. Those kind of comments might be made somewhat idly, and most people might brush them off. ]

Sure, I'll keep that in mind.

[ But a former mobster doesn't let go of these things that easily, and Broca keeps favors owed in mind, whether he's the one in debt, or the one owed. He may never cash in on it, but it's good to know he has the option. ]

[Though Loki might be the sort to talk a bit too much, he’s currently actually relieved for the quiet. Everything they just saw is weighing on Loki and he needs time to process.

He means it, Loki always means it when he says he owes someone. It’s not something he’s said often, at least not until much more recently and he wouldn’t say it if he didn’t mean it. At least not anymore.]

Good. Now, I’m afraid I must take my leave. I have a few things I need to work out. Thank you again.

[ Looking at Loki's face right now as he takes in what Broca shows him, it really doesn't feel like he did the man much of a favor. Still better to know than be taken unaware by this knowledge later, but the possibilities without concrete answers were...

Troubling to say the least.

Broca can understand the need to sit with this discovering and think about it for a bit. He won't keep the man, and gives him a small nod of understanding. ]

Yeah, good luck.

[ The wording might not sound the most encouraging, but he means it genuinely.

Good luck to Loki. Good luck to him. Good luck to everyone that got stuck in this questionable, seedy resort that's using opulence to try and blind people with flash. Broca himself might need to think as he makes his way back to his own room on here on the second floor, just a little closer to those machines than he'd like. ]
