THE WHEELS OF STEEL ARE TURNING

WHO: These lucky contestants
WHERE: Various boroughs of the City, and the demon dimension.
WHEN: Tuesday, August 21st, 11:54 am and onward.
WARNINGS: This post may contain graphic depictions of violence, psychological horror, and adult themes; it will definitely contain adult language. Viewer discretion advised.
SUMMARY: Vulcanus tries to blow up a collection of buses around the City in order to incite anti-imPort rioting; Lachesis mixes things up again. see here for details.
FORMAT: Go crazy, kids.


Each bus will have a labeled thread in the comments. To recap:

Bus W will explode. Lachesis will teleport these ImPorts to a location near the bus just after it explodes. Those who are assigned to this bus, you must be the heroes that the City demands. The damage will carve a hole in the street, and civilians are at risk for debris/fires/etc.

Bus X will yank imPorts inside of it and induce a week-long power switch. From 8/21 at 12 PM to the following Tuesday, 8/28 at 12 PM, characters will have their powers switched with another ImPort passenger. All characters on this bus have their new powers assigned.
Correction: this bus is located in Brooklyn.

Bus Y will yank imPorts inside of it for one minute, and then transport its imPorts to the demon dimension until midnight. Envision Dante's Inferno as the setting, but with the twist that ANYTHING CHARACTERS IMAGINE WILL MANIFEST IN THE WORST WAY POSSIBLE.

Bus Z will yank imPorts inside of it for one minute, and then with a LOUD SCREECHING NOISE, it will infect imPort minds with radio signals, songs, dialogue, AND IMPORTANT PLOT-RELATED INFORMATION THAT VULCANUS DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW for the rest of that day. There is no way to turn this off for the entire day. ImPorts will be returned to their prior locations at the end of one minute. All characters on this bus have their unique mental broadcasts assigned.

Kenzi looked toward the doors and nodded. "Yeah, now that my head isn't spinning I can go get myself a replacement breakfast." As her muffin had vanished under one of the seats.

She recognized a few people as well, this guy wasn't one she did though.

Whew! Kotetsu played it cool and played it off. "Breakfast? It's...noon. Right?" He checked his watch - yep, after noon by now. "Ah, well. Crap, I don't know what they're gonna say about me just disappearing out of the script meeting. I don't suppose this bus can drop us off where we're supposed to be...?"

But there wasn't a driver. Odd. Kotetsu's suspicion meter went up a few ticks at that. Yet, it did look like they were free to leave. Thank goodness.

She shot him a look and said, "My day usually starts late. It's breakfast time when I say it is. And it's still breakfast time." She started to move toward the door when the lack of a driver caught her attention as well. She gave the empty seat a confused look before shaking her head. It wasn't her problem.

Then his words registered and she turned back him. "Script meeting? Are you an actor or something?"

Kotetsu was hanging back a little, double-checking that everyone really was okay, none the worse for wear, but gave her a sheepish laugh over his shoulder. "Uh, yeah, actually, that's right! I just got a big part in a new sci-fi show, hoping it's going to be my big break." Belatedly, he remembered his manners, and edged over to offer a handshake. "Kotetsu Kaburagi. Nice to meet you."

"Kenzi." she responded as she gave him a firm handshake in return. "And good luck with that. Anyway I'm gonna jet. If I don't get food soon I'm going to pass out. Again."

"Yeah, all right. Stay safe, and all that, right?" Kotetsu gave her a little wave, having no idea at the moment that he was harboring her powers.

Kenzi gave a thumbs up and made her way off the bus.
