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.

Haha, I can't argue with that.

[WILLPOWER... IT'S CRUCIAL. Sometimes you're just very willful people.]

Do you think it might be? I'd say we're probably dealing with something different this time. Not entirely, but for the most part.
coastal: (✧ that's strange)

What was yours like? Demons, you said? Did they just kill someone at random each week?
givethemhell: (the weight of your sins)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-07 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
[can't believe the sex demon lore gets out eventually BUT HE AIN'T THE ONE WHO'S GONNA SPILL IT.]

They would choose one person to possess a week, yes. As far as we've learned, curses of some sort were involved in deciding who their victims would be. They'd kill one person and then we would have to exorcise them, which would kill the host in the process. The host was never able to resurface again after being taken over, regardless.
coastal: (✧ and bottles of bubbles)

[ . . . . ]

That's horrible. I'm sorry.

[like genuinely, it's just getting screwed over by bad luck and rng that would mean you're dead for fucking ever? speaking as someone who was corrupted and revived in her own game, she looks so sad over thots]

Are there many of you here from that environment?
givethemhell: (and i'll find that i'm recovered)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-07 07:15 am (UTC)(link)
[YEEHAW THOTS it's about to get even worse after their horny crimes get doxxed, wow.

For now he just dips his head a little, silently grateful for the commiseration. Thanks Lili you're a pal.]


Four others, outside of myself. Tonbokiri, Dick, Escha and Taako.
coastal: (✧ wobblin' around in your high heel shoe)

[she nods]

For us - it's myself, Ookurikara, and Tsurumaru.

[she'll look around and she'll point them out if she can]

They're both odd, but please treat them well or I'll have to beat you up.
givethemhell: (that's what he said)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-07 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[SWORDS. His expression lights up at that! He doesn't think a damn thing of the threat. Like, fair honestly.]

Ah! I was quite close to some of their comrades! There were five of them on the boat. [FIVE HELLS.] I'll treat them well, of course!
coastal: (✧ you protag too hard)

[personal profile] coastal 2020-06-08 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ . . . wh,]

Five? That's far too many of those people to deal with at once.

[SHE CAN BARELY HANDLE TWO, AND NOW FOUR]
