Thinking about, like, Grace Prime/Modemoiselle's throne room, and specifically creating that atmosphere of "this is a space for me, not for you. you are a guest". Most of the room is filled with computers and webs of cables crisscrossing from here to there. It's uncomfortably hot, because the room's full of computers constantly pumping out heat. There's something that's vaguely shaped like a throne at the throne at the highest point in the server pile that she usually greets her guests from. Sitting in it incorrectly, of course, usually upside-down or with her legs thrown over the side. Or she's right by the door, sitting on top of a pile of old CRT monitors that usually illustrate whatever she's talking about.
It's hot, it's stuffy, it's frequently dark, she can appear wherever she wants in the room, change outfits, sprout a tail, whatever she has the processing power to project. Her voice usually projects from a nearby speaker or the ones attached to the walls and ceiling. It's all as disorienting as she wants, but even if she's not "awake" or "present" or being actively menacing, you'll find it hard to, say, find a place to sit, or even a decent place to set something down. The room is mostly server racks, big stacks of equipment, and forbidding tangles of cables that make moving a chore and anything but leaning against something or sitting on the warm, humming ground unlikely.
Something something getting dommed by architecture.

a hero stepping into Modemoiselle's throne room and countless computers immediately whir to life in unison. The temperature starts climbing. Mod starts monologuing, projecting as many copies of herself and her voice as she can.
"Careful with that fire, Bimblaze. If the fire suppression system goes off, it'll evacuate all the oxygen in the room and replace it with argon. I'll be fine, but the warning labels tell me that humans can't breathe that stuff."

alternatively: like a data center, it's intentionally kept cold because the computers run better at lower temperatures
and then you can go from uncomfortably cold to uncomfortably warm by playing with the AC and how hard the computers are going

Like a data center, it's designed for the computer's comfort, not yours. And since these don't even have to be maintained by humans, they can be as packed in there as thermodynamics will allow. You can climb on top of the racks, but they're taller than you are and there's not exactly any footholds for you. She thinks it's fun to watch you try, though. <3
thinking about virus girl stuff, hostile architecture as kink, also game shows now
also, thinking about how a game show set is also hostile architecture
You get to stand behind your little podium or whatever, and you're not allowed to leave
wherever you are and what you're doing is very strictly controlled by the host, and you have to participate in her challenges. And the host's interests are more about producing a good show than your needs.
@BestGirlGrace i'm horny for many of your ideas but the game show one in particular is really speaking to me
@Sapphicgiraffic Thank you! Game shows are an underappreciated source of horny.

@BestGirlGrace it's like gambling with extra flair and a veneer of choice and skill u can erode in 30 minute segments before an audience. little bit of everything tbh 🎲
kink, tf
@BestGirlGrace @Sapphicgiraffic what's that game show where eliminated players get dropped into TF tanks or whatever?
kink, tf
@moonbolt @BestGirlGrace whichever one grace has taken control of tbh

@BestGirlGrace i uhhh love this but i am unlikely to visit because i rarely travel places that do not have foodscraps to scavenge

@BestGirlGrace i know it comes across like i am drawing a hard line under this, but the less than scrupulous have convinced my garbage-eating brain that the bits and bites in these server rooms are delicious and they NEVER ARE! they are computers! the servers don't even carry plates that i can swoop!
no thank you?

and that's before you get to, say, the hot stage lights, the breaks on the show's time, not yours, possibly having other contestants there so it's not even like they just have to keep you happy.
