Nexus: Hey, how close are we to the vortex?
Ship A.I.: We are approximately 0.021 km away from the vortex.
Nexus: Great. Now let's stop the ship here *yawns* and fly the rest of the way there. *rubs eyes*
Ship A.I.: Are you sure that's safe? You haven't had any sleep in 4 days.
Nexus: *yawns* Yeah, it'll be fine. [Walks off the bridge and into the hanger] You coming or what?
Ship A.I.: I have no choice in this matter. [Disconnects from ship's mainframe] *bzzts* With the state that you're in, I'm going to have to follow you to make sure you get there safely.
Nexus: Do you really have that little faith in me? [Opens hangar doors]
Ship A.I.: No, but you also never do well under these conditions.
Nexus: *sarcastic tone* What? How do I do poorly?
Ship A.I.: Do you want me to bring up the data logs with all your mistakes, again?
Nexus: Hm, well played. *yawns* But none the less I'll do fine this time.
Ship A.I.: You said that last time as well.
Nexus: [Steps towards the edge of the hanger door] You know, I can tell that you don't have any faith in my abilities *yawns*
Ship Broadcast - Nexus and Zeta. Preparing to launch in T-minus 3...2...1...launch initiated
[Both jump out into the empty void]
Nexus: A little late on that announcement, don't you think?
Zeta: Well maybe if you stopped ranting about this situation I could have done it quickly.
Nexus: What!? You're the o- *yawns* one that started this whole thing.
Zeta: Alright doesn't matter now, let's just hurry up and get you to the vortex before you’re late.
Nexus: *surprised* Shit! You’re right, I almost forgot about the meeting!
[The two begin to fly towards the vortex]
Nexus: *yawns* Okay, we made it. Now what is the time of e-entry. (Dammit, I'm starting to feel sleepy)
Zeta: It's at a .045 planklet interval.
Nexus: (Just a bit more then I can rest) A-Alright, let's go then.
Zeta: Got it.
[They begin to increase their speed and enter the vortex]
Zeta: How you holding up?
Nexus: I'm dong j-just fine.
Zeta: Just try to talk to me as well so I can know when you pass out.
Nexus: A-All right, but I'm telling you that I-I'm (Shit gonna pass out) fi..... [Goes unconscious and begins to fall]
Zeta: Huh!? You fucker! [Changes path towards the falling Nexus] I told you to rest, dammit! [Grabs] Got'cha!
[Nexus and Zeta get pulled into a random part of the vortex and get transported to another dimension]
--Time 9;03--
[Nexus begins to wake and gets a flash of sunlight in his eyes]
Nexus: Huh? W-what happened? [Gets up] W-where am I? A forest? [Starts to look around] Yo! Zeta, you there?
-CRACK!-
Nexus: What!? [Changes color and blends into the background] (If that's you Zeta, then you know better not to stay silent and sneak up on me)
