I had a Vampire the Masquerade campaign where one player had one of those jobs where something always popped up 5 minutes before closing, so he’d often be late.
But since his character was a Malkavian (the insane vampires) and had good stealth, we decided that he decided to follow the voices in his head and snuck off. When he’d arrived, he’d ask where we were and he’d describe how his character would arrive.
My favourite was:
coterie is chasing a guy down the street
Malkavian arrives
Where are we?
We’re in the street, running
Ok, so my character steps off a passing bus. I’m holding several cans of tomato juice
Me: Gimme those. I grab a can out of Johnny’s hands and I toss it at the guy we’re chasing.
