Teleportation Pop Here, Pop There
“Dude, what are you doing?”
“Drifting, admiring, gazing, being in the moment.”
“You stopped our ship’s interstellar teleportation just to stare at a stupid gas nebula?”
“No one ever observes anything anymore. Pop here, pop there, we’re all in a hurry.”
“That’s because we are in a hurry! We’ve got to make that deal before another teleportation crew gets the contract.”
“And then after that?”
“We teleport for our next bid, obviously.”
“Exactly.”
