It's sort of incredible what a few days of quality sleep and decent meals can do to put a man's head right again. I'm not sure I even realized how exhausted I was, but it was one thing to the next to the next with no time to pause in-between. Running on fumes.
Reminds me of the old days of long-haul jobs when autonav was still unreliable as shit and you had to either have a droid to work the controls or sit at the panel for five days straight and watch for errant debris fields yourself. Slamming out of hyperdrive into an asteroid field that was absolutely not there the last time you ran this route is disorienting on a good day, but it's nightmarish on day four of sleep deprivation when you're not even entirely certain it's real anymore.
And that's reason #216 why you hire Wookies.
[Carol Danvers]I saw your posting. I'm on my way back up to the compound now - you want me to bring you anything? I thought maybe we could take a look around this place together if you were up for it. Either way, I'm going to scope it out and get the lay of the land a bit, but it couldn't hurt to have my copilot.
[Kylo Ren]I've been working on those meditation exercises while I've been out here. Wouldn't you know it, but it's not actually that hard for me to think of absolutely nothing. Go on, make your jokes, I'll give you time.
