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.

[he flicks her in the middle of the forehead with no warning.]

[well, she wasn't expecting that]

—ah!

[RUDE. she gears up to stomp on his foot, but then decides that she doesn't actually want to start a fight and steps back out of further flicking distance.]
getdrekt: ('Cause there's a hole)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-08 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[good move because he was just going to counter everything by flicking her more.]

Running away already?

Merely moving out of your reach!

[TACTICS, ASCH.]

[he steps forward

and flicks her on the forehead again. :/]

[This time she's expecting it! She dodges gracefully.




As gracefully as one can dodge on a crowded bus.]


Hah!
getdrekt: ('Cause there's a hole)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-09 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
[he steps forward again, and feints a flick--

--before poking her in the cheek instead.

considering the bus' size, he may be inadvertently backing her into the windows/wall? it's whatever.]

[He sure is, but her back hasn't hit the wall yet.

Amused, she ducks down and pokes him in the side. Take that!]
getdrekt: ('Cause we hate what you do)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-09 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
Hah.

[he feints another poke—and this time, does flick her again.]

Dropped your guard.
fishingforcompliments: (013)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-09 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
Eep!

[Well, he's flicked her, and when she takes a step back to put herself out of his range - now her back's against the wall.

She contemplates whether or not to stomp on his foot, and raises her fists instead.]
getdrekt: ('Cause your words don't translate)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-10 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
[hm

instead of advancing further, his face blanks—and he abruptly turns around, walking away from her, and back towards the stairladder.]


I'm sure plenty of people will take pity and keep you safe under their wing.

[byeonara!!!]

[just calls after him as he goes:]

I have no need of anyone's pity!
getdrekt: (Well you're already in one)

[personal profile] getdrekt 2020-06-10 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
[he's halfway up the ladder by the time she calls out, and he shoots over his shoulder:]

You'll receive it from those around you regardless of your feelings.

Everyone loves to feel the hero protecting a defenseless girl.

[haha bam!! selfowned!!! god he hates himself so much!!!!!

ok bye for real tippity tap up the ladder]
