PASSENGERS: 41


You know how the story goes by now. One minute you’re somewhere familiar, and the next you’re suddenly somewhere else. Unlike previous times before, the source of your rude awakening isn’t a mystery. A harsh jostle causes your body to lunge forward as a tire jumps over a pot hole in the road. Try as you might, it’s hard to ignore the steady thrumming of an engine and the gentle sway beneath you. The faint scent of gasoline seems to waft from the outside, but as you look around you’ll notice that the windows are locked, tinted, and impossible to see through. Likewise, the door ahead of you appears to be locked as well.

Perhaps the scent is your imagination…?

Regardless, though the lighting is a tad dim, it becomes apparent that you’re inside a large bus dotted with the occasional seat and amid a jumble of other bodies. The people you were last with may be among your fellow passengers. Perhaps they are not. But worry not; there’s plenty of time to look around and get to know one another on this long, strange trip. It may even be wise to examine the staircase at the other end of the bus. Who knows what awaits you on the other floors?

Ah, but before you move too far it may be best to assess the situation. On the bright side, any injuries you incurred have been healed! Isn't it nice to have your limbs in place again? Miracles happen. But...what happened to your clothes? You’re fairly certain you weren't wearing this t-shirt before...and what's with the denim shorts? Maybe you were fortunate enough to get the knee-length version, but for those of you waking up in bootyshorts...well, we're sure you look great! And what better way to tie the whole look together than white socks and tan sandals? At least you'll be comfortable for the ride.

Lucky for you, your new threads aren't the only gift you'll receive upon waking up. Attached to your waist is a high-quality bag filled with some fun goodies for every passenger! For those of you who unzip your bag to check its contents, you will find:

-Dry shampoo
-Wet wipes
-Deodorant
-Travel pack of toilet paper
-Travel toothbrush + toothpaste
-Poncho
-A stylish travel guide

No other items are on your person at this time, even if you were holding onto it as you began your previous departure. That's a bit troublesome, isn't it? Not really; it's still a bus. Be grateful for the extra elbow room, alright?

Oh, and one last thing...on the wrist of every passenger is a small, equally fashionable white scrunchie. Not your style? Perhaps it's a good idea to give the travel guide another read.

Searching the bus from top to bottom will net zero results in the way of an escape. All of the windows are similarly tinted and locked, and the only exit door appears to be the one on the first level that can't be opened at this time.

But hey. You're all old pros at this, right? You know what to do next! Get to know the people around you, trade stories with your fellow passengers, and...well. Buckle up for the bumpy ride ahead.

[ there are so many things majima could say right now as he watches wei wuxian cycle through different ingredients, but what ultimately comes out of his mouth is a very flat: ]

Keep openin' and closin' it 'til ya find a way out.

[Honestly that's a fairass mood and Wei Wuxian just LAUGHS. He's very tired.]

Wouldn't that be something? An exit in plain sight. It would be almost as bad as missing a warning written right on the ceiling over your head, haha.

[Haha........ He opens and closes the door a few more times for good measure.]

. . .

[ thanks to previous murdergame experience, he looks up at the ceiling, just in case. ]

Oh thank god, I woulda lost my shit.
givethemhell: (restless)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-06 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
[...He does too, also just in case.]

—Hah, lucky for us! Nothing up there today, at least. I'm guessing you have some unfortunate experience with ceiling messages, too?

[personal profile] haw 2020-06-06 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
Not exactly, but we would've looked like some real dumbasses if it was true, yeah? "Never say never" and all.

—Anythin' good show up in there, by the way?
givethemhell: (this smile has a nya sound effect)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-06 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Hah, true, too true.

[He turns his attention back to the pantry though, grinning.]

Mm, plenty of good things! If you think of what you want, it'll show up, just like that. Not too bad, right?

[personal profile] haw 2020-06-06 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
I mean . . . I'd say shit's still pretty bad as long as we're stuck here.
givethemhell: (walking out of town)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-06 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, undoubtedly. Especially without any showers and only one toilet to share among us all.

[He really got spoiled on the boat, even if there was also a lot of demon shenanigans going on.]

But the pantry itself! That's not bad. We could be stuck eating dried oats for weeks, you know?

[personal profile] haw 2020-06-06 05:41 am (UTC)(link)






Wait is there seriously only one toilet on this flamin' piece of junk?
givethemhell: (a breath away)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-06 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Why'd he have to be the one to break this tragic news to Majima...]

As far as I'm aware... There's not much on the top level at all, and unless there's one hidden under the bar, I don't think the second floor has anything either.
