PALACE GAME: Round 3
You open your eyes—
You're standing in the vast lobby of a corporate building, facing the reception desk, where a Team Galactic Grunt is stationed—she's currently on the phone, though, and occupied. A few other grunts move through the lobby, looking as if they're on their way to their next assignment. All of them look identical. And if you watch their paths for a while, none of them actually end up leaving the room.
The walls are a bright, metallic, sterile blue with white, and the floor is made up of gleaming silver metal tiles emblazoned here and there with a gold logo. The reception desk is slightly to your right, and to the left of that there are three doors in the far wall in front of you.
To the right of the reception desk, there's a little area with a vending machine, a large ottoman to sit on, a potted plant, and . . . a dotaku? With a face? It's sitting resting on the floor next to the vending machine, and it's staring right at you with those red eyes.
Directly to your right, closer to the front door, there is a glowing green circle on the floor with a sign on the wall next to it.
What will you d—
Wait. Your phone is buzzing. Whether or not you had it with you back in the prison, you do now, whether in your pocket, in your hand, whatever. It's on your person, and it's vibrating demandingly for attention. If you choose to ignore it, a mechanical voice emanating from it begins literally saying the word buzz! buzzzzzz! buuuzzzzzz! in an increasingly irritated tone.
Check your phone?

"Fairy/Dragon"... Mama Dragon Pokémon... Feo Ul would have a laugh at this. They're fae, too.
[ She then looks up at the middle door. Of course she wants to look right at it? ]
What's behind the door that isn't heart or mind...

Rotoron does answer, though:
Bzzt! Something you might recognize very well! But you're not getting in there that easily. There's a saying the youths have . . . something about finding out.

Survived worse. What's it going to do, hit me on my way in?
[ Yes she's going to look around to see if she can find anything to open or peek through it. ]

Wonder if I can find a key... what do you think, Rotoron? Waste of time, or good idea? I'm not very smart about these things, you know. Saturn and Aymeric make all the smart decisions.

[ She chuckles. ]
You know him, huh? Let's go... this way.
[ Picking mind first. ]
I like to get the tougher things out of the way first!
