"Ugh, Lily," Lee groaned when Setzer brought her up, "I seriously don't get why you all pop wood for her. I mean yeah she's hot but have you even [i]heard[/i] her laugh? She sounds like a jackal that had its voice box replaced with a squeaky toy! That's not even mentioning the rumors about her snoring, I hear the poor girls in Barrack 3 have to wear ear plugs! You guys can have her, I'd probably kill myself if I had to spend a whole night with her!" He took a swig out of the bottle since no one else seemed to want the first-but-not-really drink, before then letting out a sigh as he continued his rant. Setzer had started climbing a tree but he continued regardless, making his voice grow louder the further Setzer climbed up and away from them. "Is it the boobs? Do you guys just like her boobs? They're not even that special, you've got a bigger chest than her, Setzer! What've you got there anyway, some double... double..."

His voice trailed as he saw the fiery affair that occurred in the sky above them. His eyes widened and his jaw dropped as it crashed beyond the horizon in a destructive magical explosion.

"Holy shit..." Lee managed to say in awe, hardly able to believe his eyes. He'd been trained for situations like these, but to actually see it and experience it, it was overwhelming. "That was a Vangar ship, right? The hell's it doing all the way out here?" He nearly dropped his bottle when Gideon said there could be more than one flying around. "Dude don't even say something like that! Ugh, what the hell, this was supposed to be our last golden day of fun. I didn't want to have to deal with this crap..." Seeing as their trip was now basically over, he half-heartedly sealed and put away his bottle. He really wanted to drink more of it, it was almost too good, but unfortunately he did have a duty he was supposed to keep to.

"I don't have any reception either," Lee then commented, having checked his phone once the others began to notice communications were down, "You think they maybe shot a tower down? Whatever's going on, communications going down like this kinda suggests that was all more than just some random firefight. That's some Tactics 101 type shit, whoever did it probably didn't want their enemies calling for help. Unless...there's an ulterior motive, but it's probably nothing we can figure out from here." He folded his arms over his chest, not in irritation, but in ponderment. He could definitely agree with Setzer's statement: What the [b]fuck[/b] was going on here?

Lee listened once Zimmy returned from her short recon session from the tree tops, and was able to paint a better picture thanks to the information she'd given.

"A pod, huh? So there's at least one survivor, then. Did you see anyone escaping from it? Because if it's still unopened, then the person in it is either trapped, unconscious, or dead after all. Just more of a reason to hurry up and get over there already." He looked over at the others. "Anyone got a plan that can get us over the river? I'm not really fond of the idea of just swimming through it, not at these temperatures." He drew his jacket even closer for good measure.
