Who: John Sheppard and you
Username: un: Pegasus
Warnings: cw: spiders; spider eggs; swarms; uncanny valley; loss of bodily autonomy; full encasement; guns, gun violence; PTSD
[John considered not doing video, because he hasn’t exactly gotten control of the cat-eye thing his eyes do when he feels threatened or upset or pretty much any strong emotion in general. Becoming an Avatar of the Hunt just apparently came with complications like that but he also knows he probably should behave as ‘normally’ as possible to avoid any suspicion.
Right now he looks like a perfectly normal John Sheppard. Albeit a little disturbed and upset over something.
Also he was kinda hoping it would get other people to do video so he could see who else had spider-tattoos out there.]
So if you haven’t heard of Gus the Bus, here’s your official warning.
Don’t.
Just don’t. Don’t chase after it, run away as soon as you see it. You ever seen My Neighbor Totoro? It’s the Cat-bus, but a spider version of it. And instead of plush, furry seats, you get encased in a cocoon by thousands of tiny little Gus buddies.
And attacking it doesn’t work. Believe me, I tried. It just makes things worse.

I promise to gently shoo them out the door from now on.

The thing we found in Dogtown was some kind of spider venom antidote, after all. Plus I wrecked their bridge. Maybe they’re displeased.

But no, I couldn’t stop a bus unless you somehow got the driver through the window.
The driver was the bus, in this case.

You do not want to be anywhere near that thing.

We got cocooned on the inside of the bus and passed out, woke up at the bus stop on Dory road.

cw: reference to self-harm
Re: cw: reference to self-harm
Were you able to take back control to keep from shooting yourself or your friend, or did it just decide it was more useful to leave you alive?

The compulsion stopped, and we were fine for like, a moment? But when the bus got closer, we got compelled to board it. So I’m thinking it’s a proximity situation because I wonder if we could have run away or put some distance between us and the bus in that brief moment…

[A moment's pause, and a sigh.]
It's too bad there's no way to test it that wouldn't run the risk of pulling other people into its...web.
