Well, Pteryx has a point, my original submission could be tightened. Redux:
[b
ost_uid0]Cypher[/b
ost_uid0]: Great job pulling me back, Tank. Allow me to say "thank you."
[b
ost_uid0]Tank[/b
ost_uid0]: Can you say it without the gun?
[b
ost_uid0]Cypher[/b
ost_uid0]: Hey Trinity, are you really better off with this airhead, saving our crappy real lives, than living with me in fantasyland?
[b
ost_uid0]Trinity[/b
ost_uid0]: Compared to you, I'd be better off with a famished cannibal.
[b
ost_uid0]Tank[/b
ost_uid0]: Hey, Cypher! Allow me to say--"you're welcome!"
[b
ost_uid0]Cypher[/b
ost_uid0]: Lethal irony sucks. GAK!
Though I did like the "disconnected" line.
