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.

[from here!]

Tch.

Any proof to back up your claim?

. . . you really think Blue, Peach, Plum and Pumpkin would go through all of that trouble to help us kill the house only to send us into another situation that's probably extremely similar to the one we were just in?

[TRUST, ASCH!!!!]

[he is currently shooting Akira a look that says he ABSOLUTELY thinks they would.]

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-06-07 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
[ASCH!!]

They wouldn't.

First of all, there's nothing in this for them. Second of all. . . they definitely wouldn't.
getdrekt: ('Cause there's a hole)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-07 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Tch. [doubt]

What's your theory then? There's no mousey detective to help you, this time.

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-06-07 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
[oh my god. slightly offended!!]

Are you implying I wouldn't be able to figure anything out without Akechi's help?
getdrekt: (So please don't stay in touch)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-07 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
[he raises an eyebrow—and smirks]

Are you implying you can?
survivaltricks: (pic#13006465)

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-06-07 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Absolutely.

[without hesitation]

Akechi's help was valuable, but I don't need him to succeed. I never have.
getdrekt: ('Cause there's a hole)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-07 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Hmph. I guess we'll see.

[no girlfriend or boyfriend. knowing akira, he'll probably yeet himself at someone new without a second thot.]

Still haven't heard your theory.

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-06-07 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[EXCUSE YOU HE IS LOYAL!!!]

Something intercepted us on our way home.

[it's not much of a theory, but hey, he doesn't have much to go on]
getdrekt: (Well you're already in one)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-07 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
Same as mine, then.

Like a diversion in a stream to catch fish.

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-06-07 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. But as far as what or how, I'm coming up blank.

Most people I've spoken who aren't from the mansion were also on their way home, although a few of them. . . weren't.

[they were stranded on an island instead :(]
getdrekt: (You think we need to go to war)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-07 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmph.

Someone mentioned that their dead hadn't come back.
survivaltricks: (pic#13006315)

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-06-07 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ah. . .]

The place with the demons, right? Escha mentioned that some of them were left behind on an island.
getdrekt: (that need to get slew)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-08 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
Left behind on an island?

So they were alive, but...abandoned?
survivaltricks: (pic#13004406)

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-06-08 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know the details.

. . . but from the sounds of things, they couldn't go home. Even if they wanted to.
getdrekt: (And we hate your whole crew)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-08 09:49 am (UTC)(link)
...What?

[hm. like the people eaten by the mansion, maybe.]

Explain.
