Police arrive, fire brigade and ambulances arrive, area is cordoned. Variants and remains thereof are loaded into vehicles and held on site. Phone camera images and videos begin to be uploaded. Conspiracy theorists, overseas governments, our government, anti variant groups, The Investor (plus representatives), NPC stable variants, payrolled mad scientists (currently employed by HSG).

The videos and information are quickly removed from the web, and attempts to reupload are met either with cyber resistance or are handled in person in a variety of manners, and soon after the videos become an offline only phenomenon.

People in suits show up. They convene with emergency services. Living centre-variants are immediately sent to hospitals, as they have not manifested and appear to simply be a casualty.

Week 1. Trumps on checkpoints with a variant and armed guard, non variants are given papers, variants are asked whether they're aware of their situation, told what's happening and are immediately escorted to gov facility.

Brighton in its entirety is quarantined on the night of the snap, and remains in quarantine after Time In.

Facility procedure - Pulled through interview, told benefits of co-operation and pitfalls of resistance. Higher level meta used to determine nature of abilities. Refusal to co-operate results in internment.

Snap to Time in, 2 weeks.
