'I'm in? I did it?'

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

'Yes! I recognize those beeps. I'm definitely back in my world. Okay, now what? Do I just stay here long enough for them to see it on the machine?'

Beep.

Beep.

'What do I listen for? There's no one here. Nothing except that damn monitor.'

Beep.

Beep.

'Okay, keep calm. No need to panic. I just need to stay here for awhile and then I can go back.'

'...How do I get back out?'

Beep.

'What if I can't get out? What if I'm permanently stuck here? What if Present Mic can't wake me up? I don't want to leave them just yet. What do I do? What do I do?! What if this doesn't even show up on their machine? How do I let them know I'm here?'

'I've got to try. It sounds stupid, but I've got nothing to lose...well, except my sanity. Here goes nothing...I'm here! Can anyone hear me? I'm here!'

'Nothing. Shit. Maybe I should try again?...Nezu! I'm here! I made it! Bring me back out! I don't want to be here like this! Wake me up!'

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

'Fuck. Fuck! They can't hear me. I'm not waking up. I need to keep trying. I have to scream my thoughts louder. I can't stay here like this...'

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

'...alone.'
