"Maybe we're dreaming.
You could pinch yourself," you suggest, half-seriously.
"I've had more than that happen.
Knock yourself out, though."
You don't bother pinching yourself.
Instead, you gaze out at the stars with Roux for a little while, before deciding to speak up.
"I think it'd be best if we kept going. Hopefully we'll figure this place out soon.
...Unless you'd like to break the window to check if this is real."
"I think the benefits of having air to breathe outweigh your curiosity.
Just a bit."
With that, the chorosy continues on down the hall as you follow behind them.
At the end of the hall is an imposing electronic door with a button beside it.
Roux taps the button with a claw, and it slides open, unleashing quiet, vaguely generic 'waiting room' music from the other side.
The two of you step through into an ordinary-looking shopping mall, the door silently sliding shut behind you.
You pore over the comparatively enormous room you've stepped into.
Taking up the majority of the triangular area is a children's playplace in the center, with plentiful tubes, slides and other padded play equipment scattered about; see-through plastic walls with painted rainbows and boats surrounding the playground.
Immediately to your right on the wall looks to be a switch panel of some kind.
Past that, along the right wall, you can see a sporting goods shop and an outdoors & camping store.
To your left, you can see an extensive robotics & electronic parts store.
Far across from you, on the other side of the playplace, you spy a book store.
There's more here, but that's all you can see from your current vantage point.
Roux quickly heads to the right without a word, the sporting goods shop drawing their interest.
