Was she actually going to laugh? Oh god, someone get the camera rollin-
Oh wait, no, Neo just gave a teasing smile, stuck her tongue out, and strutted her way to mess with the other people around. Hajime was fun to tease, but it got stale really quick. She needed a bit more... interesting people, like that Yang girl that she's fought some time ago.
Wanting to work out more of that amusement out of this one, Neo happened to walk up... uncomfortably close to Kyon. What did she want exactly?

"I won't forget, mister Cecil! I'll go talk to the others now, and see if they have any idea," Sukuna gave a nod, and then deciding to check up on that woman that happened to have an ice cream theme going with her appearance. Well, it all looked like some kid with a bowl on her head just joined up with this group. Yay.

He merely shrugged, another piece of the puzzle confirmed for him.
Shiki didn't dignify Jinx with a response; she simply glared at the other girl as she moved away, her clouded gray irises briefly shifting into a luminescent shade of electric blue with flecks of fuchsia when they locked eyes. It wasn't necessarily a look of spite, or even one of anger; it was simply a clear, no-nonsense, penetrating stare, the message of which was clear: I see right through you.
One look was all it had taken. One look to determine this girl was a killer; and not just a killer, but a senseless murderer.
After all, it took one to know one.
Shiki knew some would see Jinx for what she was instantly; but she also knew some would mistake her playful antics and wide-eyed glee for innocence. Someone like Mikiya probably would've tried to befriend her or something... that idiot. If he deferred to her better judgement as often as he ignored it, he probably wouldn't end up getting into trouble so much.
She hoped he was okay.
"Gramps, I don't even know who you are."
"Work with, maybe. Work for... No."
She didn't mean to sound harsh, but trust... didn't come easily to Shiki. Those who had it had to earn it, and those who earned it had done a whole lot more for her than help her up off the ground. As long as the old man remained amicable, though, she was fine with considering him an ally... for now.
To break the awkward silence after that, she quickly changed the subject.
"I've been dreaming about this place for days. I take it you're the same?"

Kyon stiffened quite a bit when Asakura had gotten in his personal space, and just about stopped breathing when she whispered what she did to him. So his suspicions were right! Well, sort of. This was indeed Asakura as he knew her, kind of, and not the alternate form he had seen in the other world. Well, then again, that form was crazy too, but whatever.
He was about to speak up in response to her whispers, before she would offer her handkerchief to him. Well... it would seem that he'd have no reason to doubt her. At least, in this instance. After all, what reason did she have to lie? If she really did want him dead, he would probably be dead already. But still...
Well, she was still dangerous. Very dangerous.
Reluctantly taking the handkerchief, Kyon began to wipe the sweat off his forehead, going with the act as well. No point in making himself look like a complete ass more than he already had just now. That would wait when he would calm down and apply the snark to every situation that they would come across in the future.
"Yeeees, ma'aaaam," he sighed tiredly, going with it, "Maybe I'm just tired. Sorry about the commotion, everyone," he said, pretending to calm down, but in reality, he was actually more worried and concerned than before. Not at the anomaly that was Asakura, but rather, everyone's situation in general.
Wait, did someone say 1980s?
Well, time travel. Great. Did Miss Asahina time travel him while he wasn't looking? Some other third party time traveler? It seemed that he couldn't find anyone nearby who he was familiar with. Or at least, wanted to be. But at the very least, what to do about this time travel situation...
Wait, Russia?
Oh, boy. This was gonna be fun.
"Um... you people don't exactly look like you're from the 1980s. Isn't it supposed to be the 21st century for anyone else?"

Great, Junko's now learned how to time travel... Hajime raised his hand before returning to his doodles, "I'm from the 21st century."
@Klutzy Ninja Kitty @The Tactician @CrunchyCHEEZIT @Mari @Gummi Bunnies @Josh M
Neo gave a nonchalant shrug, not like she had no idea what time period she came from, but it was more like this time talk was relative to the time that she knew about.
However...
"Um... I'm not sure what all of this mumbo jumbo stuff means... I'm so confused..." Sukuna was so lost. None of this was every talked about in Gensokyo. This was all Outside World talk, because clearly it wasn't getting anywhere with this girl.
@Klutzy Ninja Kitty @The Tactician @CrunchyCHEEZIT @Mari @Verite @Josh M
Hajime just kept doodling, not a fuck given.

Wanting to take a break from the chaos happening everywhere else, Yellow decided to take a seat next to the doodler, beginning to take out her sketchbook.
Hajime just kept doodling, not a fuck given.
@Klutzy Ninja Kitty @The Tactician @CrunchyCHEEZIT @Mari @Gummi Bunnies @Josh M
"Uuummmm... what's going on here, mister? Can I see? Pleeeeeease..." Sukuna happened to notice that he was doodling away, the girl trying to get a peek on his notebook.

Prologue: The Recurring Dream
A dream... Many, in different places, even times, have been having this exact same dream every night... A fuzzy image of them standing at the gates of some sort of camp... It's name was written in a Russian language, one which, everyone somehow knew read "Sovionok". Each time, the image grew more vivid, and one could almost touch the gates, feel the coolness of the night air, or... Maybe, even enter them. However, no matter how hard the dreamer tried, no matter how many times, they just couldn't budge from their spot... And instead, they woke up. This strange cycle continued for night after night, eah time, the dramers could remember more and more about their dream.... However... One day, something changed. Each dreamer, sharing almost identical dreams, even in different dimensions, planes of existence, suddenly felt tired. All it would take was a single moment, before they each dozed off... Their consciousness slowly slipping away as everything grew dark, and absolutely still.
Day 1
Faint, but somehow familiar sounding music could be heard, at the edge of everyone's consciousness, and the faint humming of a bus's engine could be heard. The feeling of a soft fabric underneath everyone indicated that they were sitting in some sort of bus perhaps... A faint, feminine voice could be heard, but, while it's words couldn't be made out, the words had a calming effect on everyone in a way. The strange, half-conscious ride lasted for around an hour or so, some may have fallen fully asleep in the meantime, however, when the bus finally screeched to the stop... It was sure to wake everyone who had been sleeping, or semi-conscious on it, that's when everything truly started to sink in...
Now that everyone was awake, it became apparant that they were in some sort of bus; and Ikarus model to be precise, commonly used in the late 1980's in Soviet Russia... Blinding sunlight shone through the bus's windows, and an apparant heat lingering in the air conveyed clearly that it was summer here. Memories of the ride that came before was quite a blur, the most anyone could remember was closing their eyes in a familiar environment, wherever that was, and then...
A field of some sort, and the rising sun... What was this place? Who knew, but, all anyone really did know was that it was no longer their home, or wherever they had been before they had fallen asleep. Someone could be heard freaking out near the front of the bus, punching himself a few times, slapping his face... He was standing in an empty space between the seats, staring in disbelief at the spot, as if he had thought there was a door there or something. Then, he ran out the front of the bus, looking to be in a panicked frenzy; perhaps he too was one of the new arrivals? No-one could manage to get a good look at him just yet, so, who knows...
It looked like there were a few options here right now;
A) Run after that panicked fellow; It might be in one's best interests to get to him before he hurts himself or something... Maybe you could find out what had happened to him? And, more importantly, if he had been brought to this camp in a similar fashion the rest of you have...
B) Head out the bus; Perhaps, even if you aren't going to chase after that disgruntled guy, it would be for the best to at least get to know where this bus had ended up... Maybe get your bearings? Or if anything else, strike up a nice conversation with others who had decided to do the same.
C) Stay in the bus; Well, one can't blame you if you're staying in the bus; the seats are rather comfortable, though, admittedly, it's quite hot in here... Maybe you could get to know your peers? Well, you can do that outside too, but, maybe inside, you're a little more sheltered from the heat.
Remember... Bold and Underline your choice to make it easier for the GM to decipher o.o

She sounded pretty confident.
"...Heh."
Well, now. The old man had smarts; that was good. They'd get him far. The throaty chuckle Shiki gave was almost entirely noncommittal in nature, and she followed it up with a lethargic yawn as she slipped her hands into her jacket pocket and tilted her head back to look at the sky.
"Then... whenever this "presence" reveals itself, I'll kill it and we'll leave. Crisis averted."
It was a little disconcerting, just how many of life's problems could be solved through murder.
Just when she was about ready to relax, though, the yelling of some blonde-headed idiot nearby informed her things weren't gonna be that easy.
"The 1980s, huh...?"
Jeez, what a pain. Things suddenly became a lot less straightforward than "kill the bad guy and go home", if they were ever that simple to begin with. It didn't show on the surface, but a small twinge of concern plucked uselessly at Shiki's heart, and she furrowed her brow with a mild huff of irritation, placing her hands on her hips.
"So we've moved both in space and time... I've never heard of such a thing, but I don't pay much attention to magic to begin with. You mentioned you're from America, old man? What year?"

Wednesday awoke and noticed the bus. She was quiet and looked seeing Pugelsy was not next to her which was a little odd. Though she didn't mind a day to get a break wasn't that bad. She decided to get out of the Bus and learn where it was headed. 'I hope not to camp Chipawa' was her only thoughts.
@york @Those off the bus I guess
