(this is inspired by the dream i had a few weeks back. This was also written by chat gpt. So... Please don't hate it.😅)

[Scene opens in the snowy wasteland of Copper 9. Nori, Uzi, and N are rummaging through scrap.]

Uzi: (grumbling) Why are we wasting time here? We should be building weapons, not scavenging for... whatever this is. Nori: (calm but firm) Uzi, not everything is solved with explosions. N: (holding up a toaster) Ooo, shiny! ...Do you think this could make grilled cheese and vaporize enemies?

[Thad pops out from behind some rubble with a microphone, facing an imaginary camera.]

Thad: This is Thad, reporting live from Copper 9! Behind me, chaos unfolds as... (glances at Uzi) oh—uh... h-hi—

[He stumbles, cheeks glowing. He keeps talking but it’s all nervous babbling.]

Uzi: (rolling her eyes) Great. The comic relief.

[Nori gestures toward a car nearby, half-buried in snow.]

Nori: Come on, let’s just take that and go. N: (excited) Road trip!

[Cut to inside the car. Nori’s driving, Uzi’s in the passenger seat, N’s squished in the back with way too much enthusiasm.]

[Outside, Thad tries to “report live” again.]

Thad: As you can see, the suspicious group of drones is attempting to flee the scene in a... (swoons when he sees Uzi in the car) a-a beautiful... I mean suspicious... suspect...

[He faints mid-sentence, falling flat. His microphone slips out of his hand, bouncing perfectly under the car’s tires.]

[The car drives forward, crunches the mic, loses control, and slams into a tree.]

Uzi: (yelling) ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! N: (cheerfully upside down in the backseat) Well... at least the tree is okay. Nori: (sighs, pinching her nose) This is why I don’t drive with children.

[Cut to Thad, still unconscious but with a dopey smile on his face.]
