cue up simple plan
WHO: Lee, Carolina, Sam, K-2so
WHERE: Oros
WHEN: vaguely gestures to a random date on the way back from getting the Relic
WHAT: the trip back to the LZ isn't that EZ
WARNINGS: general unhappiness, terrible language likely, someone is getting eaten by a sandworm
[ They're so close. They're so frakking close to getting off this godsdamned planet that he can taste the fatty foods waiting for him in the food court. He can feel the scalding hot, clean water washing away all the gunk that's been collecting on his body for way too long. Also a bed. He knows he's complained about being stuck on a starship all over again, but damn if he doesn't want to get the frak off this planet.
It's been doomed from the start and he's kind of fed up with everything. But, they're close, and he's fallen into a false sense of security. Everyone is together again, all heads counted for, and Carolina has been better than he could've asked for to help lead these ragtag teams into... somewhat of a victory ( ??? ). So, he's feeling a little more optimistic than he had been. He doesn't think anyone can blame him for that.
So, of course, that's when everything goes to shit again. Maybe this is some kind of karma. Maybe it's something else. He has no idea. All he knows is that he's clutching the Relic and running as fast as his legs can carry him. Because he's being chased. By a huge snake. Worm? Snake-worm?? He's not sure what it is, only that it blended in way too well with the surroundings that he didn't see it until it was too late. Now he can feel it rumbling the ground beneath his feet. He realizes with a sickening clarity that he might actually not make it out of this alive.
Which, of course, is when it bursts out from beneath him, sending Lee flying way too high in the air that he's comfortable with at the moment. The next thing he knows, everything is dark and slick and he can't get a grip on anything and just keeps sliding down. If he yelled like a little kid on the way up and down, that's his own business. By the time he's calmed down enough to try and assess the situation, he thinks that maybe he should just stay here and get digested. An extremely apt metaphor of his life, he thinks. ]
If anyone can hear me, funny story for you.
[ He waits a few beats, then just yells because someone is Real Fed Up. ]
I'm inside the frakking worm!
