BUS? A BUS???
The wheels on the bus (don't) go round and round...
You wake up on a bus.
It's a very nice bus, though. Luxurious, even! The seats are comfy and can be used as beds, with pajamas also available for you to change into. It's stocked with enough food and drink to last a week or so, along with a bathroom that also has a shower and free toiletries to use. The downside, however, is that apparently you have to share—as you're not alone when you awaken.
It seems like you're not where you should be, either. The bus comes equipped with TV screens, but rather than any movie or show, it's reality TV in the most literal sense. You might even recognize a few faces over there in the terminal, but either way, you can watch the participants go about their day. You're as equally confused as they are, after all, even if miles (?) separate you.
For that matter, that's pretty much all you can do. You're stuck on this bus. You can't access where the driver's controls would be, and there's no driver to begin with; in fact, the bus isn't even moving. The doors are shut, and any attempt to break the windows will send you bouncing back. Opening the shutters will treat you to the enticing sight of... outside airport scenery. You're on airport grounds somewhere, but you can't tell anything other than that. If you do some digging around, though, one compartment on the bus contains a random assortment of card games and board games for you to entertain yourselves with.
Better get cozy, because you might be here for a while.
RUNDOWN
- This will be your one mingle post until next Friday.
- You do not have any personal belongings on you. Unlike the other players, you also don't have a phone. Sad.
- The W0 weekly effect, once revealed, will apply to you as well.
- Your characters are able to see anything that takes place on the public mingles, including network posts, via the bus TV screens. You may also handwave them being able to see the initial notification that the players all received on their phones.
- We will have a small, pseudo-mini-event for you on W0 Wednesday at 12pm PST/3pm EST.

I'll try and work on my self-esteem while I'm here then. Not much else to do right now, after all.

Our options are, what... [she gestures at the tv screens] Staring at the others like a bunch of creeps, sleeping, and playing board games?
[free them.]
God, I hate waiting.

[she grimaces a little bit, but then shrugs.]
On the other hand, at least we aren't here alone. I'm sure if the four of us work together we can figure out something to keep ourselves from going stir-crazy.

[ this is a joke. ]

Who do you think would have the most surprising hidden talent?
no subject
It's always the quiet ones who are the most surprising.

Perhaps he's a talented singer or dancer. He looks like he would be nimble on his feet.
[keith is literally right there and they are in a very small enclosed space. why are they talking about him where he can hear it. oh well.]
no subject
Ooh, good suggestion. Maybe he's one of those guys that can effortlessly do handstands one after another.

[she's kind of eyeing their surroundings and glancing up at the ceiling to gauge how much space they might have to try ... then her shoulders slump a little because it's definitely not enough. oh well.]

Once we get out of here [ the bus ] it'll be the first thing I'll help you with.
