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.

[ i'm so tired of mdzs and i love mdzs ]

Nah, he was still a prickly bitch the whole time. [ they were spite buddies, it's fine. ]

I didn't sign up for suspense, I've had enough of that.
givethemhell: (i'd say i told you so but)

[if that isn't the mdzs mood]

Hah, well, he's always going to be like that. But if you're able to say those kinds of things about him, it must mean you got along decently enough, at least.

[A little, quirking grin. THAT'S ALL HE CAN ASK FOR.]

I do have to agree with you there, though! I'd like a refund.

[yall didn't pay shit to be here]

Is that what he calls getting on with people? [ yeesh. ]

What's with people and kidnapping? There some kind of game on? Some dare we don't know about?
givethemhell: (wish i could remember)

He's a handful.

[He says this very solemnly. His nephew inherited all of his dumb dad's bad traits.]

I'd like to ask that question myself, though! It's a little strange how many places and existences there are out there that have the same idea, isn't it? I wouldn't be surprised if there was a higher organization.

[ not that weewooxian is biased or anything ]

That's possibly the worst thing I've heard anyone say in the past 24 hours. [ and that might even count after anaido yells about sex demons for way too long ]

[He may be a tiny bit biased! But only a little!! Also wow set the bar higher Ash.]

Hah, I wish I didn't have to say it, to be honest. But a possibility is a possibility, unfortunately!

[ the sex demons thing was just funny, c'mon. ]

Sure. Doesn't sound like we can do much about it right now though, if it's more than just a possibility.
givethemhell: (consideration)

[ASH HIS TRAUMAS.]

Maybe we'll be able to gain a little more insight this time around into the things that go on behind the curtain, so to say?

[ MAYBE DON’T FUCK SEX DEMONS AND ZOMBIES AND SEX DEMON ZOMBIES THEN ]

At least we all kinda have an idea of how this is gonna play out. Might be harder to trick us this time around.
