Gino waited until everyone else was standing and in the isles before he decided to join them. In reality, he appeared rather timid and accepting of these situations, allowing everyone else in front of him or first in line---But behind the mask of anonymity, online, in the world of gaming, he was relentless. The prospect of creating one's very own secondary body, fitting like a glove over the fragile first one, nearly had him visibly vibrating with excitement. At least he'd get along with his testing partner, and that was a big issue even before he'd accepted the offer. At least they agreed on a few obvious things, and that was a good start. When he reached the several steps to get off the bus, it took a moment for Gino to get his legs to work, but he managed to stumble down and onto the pale sidewalk as the rest of the passengers dispersed. He stepped up beside Riley as she paused.

What a massive building. Well over two hundred floors. Every floor seemed to be coated in glass, windows showing off pristine white hallways and corridors with doors that led to various offices, testing rooms, and storage areas, panels built straight into the walls to control the facility's electrical output, regulate temperature, test and check water pressure, and many, many other intricate, precisely-balanced readings. Though his eyes were glued to the building and its massive electric-blue sign far, far above them, Gino felt around his pocket and pulled one of the papers he'd been mailed out to unfold it. A printed map had been included of the facility's ground floor, marked here and there with where he---and anyone else---needed to go.

"Looks like we'll be going to the lower levels." Gino said, glancing to Riley as the rain patted the paper. He wouldn't need it for more than a few minutes, though. "The testing room takes up most of the basement level, because they're going to be monitoring our responses while in the game. It says we'll be in a semi-conscious state while in the game, and won't be brought out of it until we've safely exited the system." He glanced sideways as he folded the paper. "After you." He nodded, shoving his hands into his pockets as a habitual reflex.
