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 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. |

He's sitting up and wincing. Not being able to block these things with gravity control sucks.]
no subject
I'm nowhere near that heavy, don't worry. You'll live, especially considering that others have when something similar happened.
[ And unlike some people she was going out of her way to not crush someone's ribcage, you're welcome. ]
So. You remember me, right?

[ It was NHS, who will probably never understand designations and robots, but. ]
Nice to see you again, Chuuya.
no subject
[Honestly she was one of the few he was really going to miss. Seeing her again is nice, though it comes with a worry of what might happen next. That worry is absolutely present in his tone too, by the way.]
no subject
[ Yeah she hears that worry and she's just going to. Flippantly not directly call him out on it, but. haha what are the odds of this not being a murderbus. ]
no subject
I'm not gonna kill someone again. Not unless it's for a really good reason.
[Just. Saying that right now.]
But you know, all of us here, with my powers gone? It's probably gonna throw 'good reasons' at us.
no subject
Gone again, huh. Wonder what that feels like. And of course they took everything interesting off of us too.
[ Her giant inventory... ]
no subject
It's like a part of 'me' is cut off. You ever try walking around while blindfolded? It's kind of like that. You're used to seeing, so not being able to see feels weird.
[As creepy as Arahabaki could be, his presence being cut off again is still weird.]
no subject
[ Probably like being cut off from the Zener Network, maybe. Then again, it's hardly comparable.
That said, she just lets herself fall back against the floor to stare at the ceiling. uuuuuugghhhhhh. ]
no subject
With it, I could've caught you with just one finger.
[It would have been a middle finger too. Because yes.
But he's sitting up, so he'll peer over at her.]
Tired already?
no subject
Of this bullshit, maybe.
