You wake slowly … and realize that you have absolutely no idea where you are. Or, more importantly, who you are. No matter how hard you try, you can’t remember a single scrap of your life.
You’re laying in a stasis pod, fortunately, with the lid up! There’s a whole row of the things, each with a person inside, and you’re all wearing the same thing: a simple pair of white hospital PJs that fit you exactly. A pair of matching hospital slippers can be found on the floor by your pod. An IV stand also sits next to your pod, a bag of fluids dangling from its hooks; the IV tube is dangling loose.
The room you're in is completely white and sterile, with the scent of antibiotic gel filling your nostrils. There's futuristic looking computer terminal with a stool for sitting in the front of the room, although the lights are off and everything at the terminal is powered down.
There's a foggy window to your left and a fancy, electronic door to your right. The latter is currently locked. Otherwise, there doesn't seem to be anything else of note in this room. Besides your pods and yourselves, of course.

[Sitting up and looking around, confused]
What...?
[And then wandering over to the window because GOTTA LOOK AT ALL THE THINGS]

[And then wandering over to the window because GOTTA LOOK AT ALL THE THINGS]
[There is something....unnerving about this set up and he doesn't know why.]
[But he's not sitting up, quite yet. He can't remember anything, that he knows. He's unnerved. he needs to case out the situation, so he's just laying here, listening to his surroundings.]

[MEANWHILE]
[someone over in a pod tucked in a corner wakes up, blinks at his surroundings, and. . . yells]
[very loudly]
[he then proceeds to jerk up in an attempt to scramble out of the pod, but he winds up tripping and falling onto the floor instead, nearly knocking the IV stand over in the process]
[SMOOTH]

[GETTING THE HELL OUT OF THIS POD, he might not remember anything but he still doesn't like even vague feelings of confinement!!
....putting on the slippers, though]
....putting on the slippers, though]
[ This feels entirely unfamiliar, in a way that he utterly cannot describe.
It's only a matter of seconds before he's out of the pod and on his feet, going to check on the door. He's sending short, curious glances towards the others in the room- but he's more interested in finding out if they're locked in. ]

[He was trying to play possum, BUT]
[He hears the sound of someone in distress and he's a good egg again, opening an eye to see who and....]
[That's someone else in hospital clothes. And no doctors?]
[Sitting up.] Hey, you okay?

[ trying to stand after what feels like a long nap is a lot harder than you'd think.
he's bleary eyed and still sitting at the edge of his pod when he comes to, staring at the IV, the PJs, and pretty much everything. ]
wERE wE iN aN accIdENt?
[ ...ah, wait? he didn't hear that? ]

[with one hand pressed against his head, his gaze jerks up towards the mysterious stranger, eyes wide]
[he blinks]
I-- [hesitation] . . . yyyyyes?
[why does he sound so uncertain about this]

[Okay then heading over to check out the computer
except he has no idea what it is so he'll just kind of examine it with a great deal of confusion]

Is there a doorknob on it? He know what those are.
And locks, he knows what locks are, too. ]

...it seems....less likely with the stasis pods.
. . . I'm not panicking. I'm fine. I'm perfectly fine.
[his pride automatically kicks in, and he huffs]
Who are you?
[his pride automatically kicks in, and he huffs]
Who are you?
[a likely story!!

...wow.
Yes. I totally believe you. [There is only sass for you, young man.]
....I guess....temporary amnesia does happen with stasis pods?
