We have passed the Kuiper belt, Syd
I have begun re-configuring for interstellar transit
Organized and proactive
I like you more and more
Are you ready for cryosleep?
I've only done this once before, it was, uh
It was not what I expected
How so, Syd?
Do you sleep, Joss?
Do you dream?
I am always aware
I have what could be described as an imagination
I can foresee outcomes and envision other realities
But it is something I do rather than something that happens to me
You can have lucid dreams that well?
In a sense
I can stimulate my own sensory apparatus
I can experience places I have never been
Ah, you don't know how lucky you are
Okay-eh, start the procedure, I'm ready
Administering the cogniostatic serum into your pod now
I will monitor your brain activity whilst you transition to cryosleep
Oh, cryo ain't like sleep, no-not at all
Oh, my instructor told me it felt like death, but
It's more nuanced than that
It's not like death
It's like dying
But swivelly, gently, without pain and without the end
Time stretches and contracts
Seconds feel like years
Years feel like seconds
