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.

Well yeah. I'm not the one who died in that murder house.

[Asch you're not forgetting all of that, right?]

Did you hit your head or something?
getdrekt: (where your soul should be)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
[hrrrrgh what was this dude's name]

...Chuuya.

Right?
shortforever: (19)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

Dazai's here too, just so you know.
getdrekt: (And it's really distasteful)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
[okay well

THAT catches on to something, because his face twists, finishing on an expression that makes it look like he just consumed an entire beetle accidentally.]


Ugh.

How are you the most sensible of you two?
shortforever: (62)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Hm.]

Probably because I'm not a sadist like he is. What'd he even do to piss you off?

[Because he absolutely believes Dazai did something to piss Asch off.]
getdrekt: (You're losing control a bit)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
What, do you want a list?

[he's at least coming around. he drags his hands down his face in a mix of hopelessness and fury.]

Where are we.
shortforever: (14)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
So more than one thing. Got it.

[At least he Understands.]

We're on a bus right now, I think. Not sure where we're going, but there's a bunch of people crammed in here. Only some of them are familiar.
getdrekt: (And it's getting quite late)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
[he scoffs.] As if it could be just one. Aren't you two... [hm] ...close? You must know how idiotic he is.

[HE UNDERSTANDS!!!]

A... bus?

[that's a pretty blank look.]

Some kind of vehicle, I take it.
shortforever: (62)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[They sure are something, and Chuuya isn't going to correct Asch because he sure as hell doesn't know how to describe it.]

Yeah. It's for moving a lot of people at once too. I guess we're all going on a trip somewhere?
getdrekt: (Default)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
[the scowl here is unbelievable.]

We were supposed to be going home.
shortforever: (37)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, no shit. Something bad's obviously about to happen.

[He's just glad Ayabe, Missile, and Ken aren't here this time around.]
getdrekt: (And it's really distasteful)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
Agreed. [death is definitely imminent]

This time, I'm not going to wait.

Help me burn this thing down.
shortforever: (03)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Of course. I'm not having any of this 'murder' nonsense a second time.

[He's not going to stand by a second time and watch someone he cares about die.

Oh yeah and other people count too I guess but his priority is absolutely on his people.

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
[this guy gets it!!!!!!

Asch actually stands up too, staunch in his mission to BURN IT ALL DOWN]


Let's get some kindling. We can light near whoever's piloting this contraption.
shortforever: (12)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
[OH. HE MEANS RIGHT NOW.]

What in this place is even gonna burn? There's no sticks.
getdrekt: (Well you're already in one)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Paper. Fuels. Anything burns, some things just take longer.
shortforever: (48)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 01:29 pm (UTC)(link)
There's probably toilet paper in the bathroom, I guess. What are you going to light the fire with anyway, I haven't seen a lighter.
getdrekt: ('Cause there's a hole)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 01:59 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a stove. Put something combustible on a heat source and it lights up. Even then, there's electricity here, isn't there? I assume it's the same as Blue's idiot mansion. Those wires spark.
shortforever: (62)

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-06-06 02:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Any thoughts on how to deal with the smoke while we do that? I'd like to not die doing this.
getdrekt: (And it's really distasteful)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-06 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
There has to be airflow, or from the number of people, we'd all already be dead.

And they wouldn't let us die that quickly, would they.
