I get ideas from basically anything. Hell, took a look at some iguanas conversing and came up with iguana conspiracy for part of a story. ?
This one, the idea behind it. That the characters were each drawn in on promises, dreams to be filled. Things were going good for a while, until then they were slowly cut off, leading into the contained room.
From there, one watches from on top their throne. Commanding the line beneath, pulling the strings with their tests.
Their finger tips on the keys, putting forward tests while panic ensues in the horrific place. The slim hope to make it to the top and challenge the Program Master.
Failure resulting in deletion. The bloody corpses lining the field, terrors around every corner.
