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.

Katie was sitting in a seat not far from him and couldn't help but stare. The floating was something she had seen enough times not to be surprised, but glowing was always something that caught her attention. Possibly because she spent so much time glowing herself.

"Playing?" Her voice was a bit squeaky, something that made her frown and try again. "Mister, what do you mean?"

The Doctor floated, or tried to but he was hampered by clothes meant for someone with a more solid frame. With barely a shrug he chucked off his clothes, taking a moment to look himself over.

He wasn't impressed to say the least.

Floating closer to the girl he tried to explain. "The Porter has been known to play with ImPorts now and again, and unless I've just regenerated into a before unknown species I think I've just become a pawn in one of Her games."

"That's not how you're supposed to be?" Katie's frown deepened. While it was nice to have someone to point to as the cause of their sudden appearance on the bus, it led to more frightening thoughts. "That machine can mess with our genes?"

He never liked to frighten children. Well, he never liked to frighten children he liked and so far he liked this one, so he hoped his smile showed that he had everything under control. "Well, usually I'm much more Time Lord like. This Porter is a tricky sort. I think she's having a good laugh at our expense."

That was cause for more questions. "Time Lord? And laughing or not, that;s really, really creepy."
