Mindscape Meme

HEY GUYS WHAT'S THIS? THE MINDSCAPE MEME.

WHAT DOES THE INSIDE OF YOUR CHARACTER'S MIND LOOK LIKE?

I don't mean HOW ROUND ARE THEIR FLOATY BRAINCELLS but. If their mind had to look like a certain place/have certain things/be a certain way/...what would it be like? A giant Egyptian maze like Yami inside Yugi's brain in YuGiOh? A themepark with dead people hanging off the lamp posts and stuff? A room filled with doors and tons of things inside those doored rooms, etc?

And are there people there? Like, other characters that the character has some kind of close relationship to? Pictures of these people? Why would they be there? ETC. Anything you can think of!

There's a main room, with a few other rooms around it.

The main room is essentially a massive computer server room. All the information is stored neatly and efficiently, with no waste. It's optimized for fast processing and retrieval of information. There's very little else in the main room besides the big black servers.

It's the smaller rooms that get really interesting.

In one, a man and a woman reside, in a house on a desert landscape. The images are crystal-clear, but they're just that - images. He is rather formidable-looking, with a serious face, and the same pointed ears that Spock has. Spock looks quite a bit like this man, actually, albeit younger, and somehow...softer. The woman is human, though dressed strangely. Her back is ramrod-straight, her head covered with a scarf, and her smile is big and beautiful. Spock has her eyes.

In another room, is a smattering of art - sculpture, musical instruments, books of poetry, sheet music. Occasionally, if one is lucky, one might spot Lieutenant Uhura in this room. (There are a couple of other rooms she runs around in, too, when she feels like it.)

One room opens onto the bridge of the Enterprise, fully manned and ready for warp. It is bright, shiny and new, and, in a lot of ways, so are the people on it.

Several rooms are empty, when once, they clearly held something of great import.

And there's one room, hidden away. No one could ever get into this room. It's locked far too tightly, with far too many security measures, for that. If one listens closely, one might hear sounds coming from this room. They're visceral, animal sounds. Sounds of violence, anguish, of the fight for survival, perhaps some madness. It is a room which is clearly never meant to be opened.

Throughout most of the rest of the space, one hears only the sound of a distant engine, with occasional whirring beeps and swooshes. The mechanical sounds of a starship.
