Bus Arrives Safely In Carapace Town, Captor Missing

“WHERE THE FUCK DID WE PUT HIM, ANYWAY?”

Good news and bad news from our reporters currently stationed in Carapace Town.  Sources report that the bus journey, begun last night around five o’clock in the afternoon, went off without a hitch.

“It was really quite smooth!” John Egbert (Wind God) told our reporter cheerfully, while forcing him to brush his own teeth in the bathroom on threat of taking away his pistols. “We even got to sing songs and everything!”

Diplomats to the small but apparently thriving town report that bedding was more than adequate and breakfast was generally served in bed.  Nothing but glowing things were said about the Carapace People themselves, which Egbert tells us were “extremely friendly!”, “maybe even excessively friendly!” and “bowed down and worshiped me which was kind of disturbing!”  Diplomacy talks are expected to begin this afternoon, and we have been reassured will progress smoothly.


Dampening the festivities and good news, Sollux Captor (Overseer Of Technology) was reported missing by the adults stationed there, having been misplaced at some point during the previous night’s festivities.

“Yo, let me tell ya about Sollux,” said David Strider, “chillaxing” against the wall of the mayor’s office.  “Sollux gets lost all the time, little dude.  Guy just wonders off all the time.  Think I’ve even seen Aradia lead him around on a leash.  Don’t write that,” he added, quickly.  “Wait, you didn’t f-ing write my name as David, did you?”

“WE CAN’T FIND WHO?” noted Karkat Vantas, as our reporter attempted to talk to him as he stood in the middle of a field having a nervous breakdown before our reporter even arrived.  “WHAT?  OH, SOLLUX?  JESUS.  YOU HAD ME SCARED FOR A MOMENT.  WE’RE ALWAYS FORGETTING WHERE WE PUT HIS BLIND ASS.  HE’LL TURN UP.”

“Sollux is gone?  Oh nooooo,” said Egbert, slapping his hands to the side of his face.  “I’ll go ask the Mayor!  He might know about that!”

Despite this, things are peaceful there and nothing else has marred the occasion.  We will have more on the story as it happens.
