Open the VR pod.

It's empty. Or at least there's no one in it. The inside looks fairly normal, except for the wrist restraints on the arm rests.

[AzyWng]

Go check the door next to it.

[Egan_BW]

((Reminds me of Polybius. You should totally jump in!))

[Sosoku234]

Slide the door open just enough for a sneak peek inside.

[TinFoilTopHat]

((Reminds me of Polybius. You should totally jump in!))

Fuck it.
Enter the VR Pod. After all the (less in)sane people get out of the room.
"What could POSSIBLY go wrong?"

Fuck it.
Enter the VR Pod.
"What could POSSIBLY go wrong?"

((I see you have chosen the way of the Jaguar in your approach to unknown possibly deadly objects… a wise choice))

[Sosoku234]

((Reminds me of Polybius. You should totally jump in!))

Fuck it.
Enter the VR Pod.
"What could POSSIBLY go wrong?"

"Wait! Let the rest of us get out of here in case it's a trap."

[spazyak]

((WOOh! Mind fucks gonna get real))

[AzyWng]

Welp, I'm not sticking around to see the inevitable explosion of insanity.
Check the door closest to the one we just came through rooms.

[Sosoku234]

"I'll stay just outside of the door and make sure you may get out alive.

[piecewise]

Go check the door next to it.

The room next to the VR one is about the size of a small office but is completely empty. There's not even light strips to illuminate it. Just 4 bare walls, a tiled floor and a metal ceiling. How anti-climatic.

Don't do double actions. Consolidate them into a single action in one post via editing.

Slide the door open just enough for a sneak peek inside.

Which door? There's several doors here; so I'll just assume Azy's door opening fulfilled this desire for the moment.

((Reminds me of Polybius. You should totally jump in!))

Fuck it.

"What could POSSIBLY go wrong?"

You get into the VR pod and make yourself comfortable. Strangely, the wrist restraints don't automatically clank down; you had honestly expected the machine to just drag you kicking and screaming into whatever terrible world it wanted to show you, but it seems like this is a journey you'll need to make of your own accord.  The VR system is a bit different from normal; it has no gloves for interaction, and instead of a screen there's some kind of VR helmet to strap to your head. There's also a rather prominent "POWER" button straight in the center of the console.  Seems that they want it to be as easy as possible to turn off and on.

Check another door. Make sure we have our weapons at the ready in case anything attacks us.

You press the button to open the door.

The door opens onto what looks vaguely like a metal wall with concentric circles or rings making up its surface. You stare at it for a moment, confused, before remembering where you are. You dodge to the side, but not quite quick enough. The wall telescopes out, expanding into an enormous metal spike.

The spike clips you in the left arm, carving a deep gash across your forearm before it recoils back into the room and the door closes behind it.

[AzyWng]

"God damn it!"

Stand by the VR pod's door and wait. Try to press down on the wound and keep it closed.

((If only medkits or medspray were a little cheaper...))

[TinFoilTopHat]

((Thank god my computer broke a few days back resulting in me being unable to get trapped in a VR machine.))
"Hold on, I am a trained medic."
PANIC Get out of the VR pod and use my emergency kit to first aid the hell out of Azy's wound.
