Fives bounced on the balls of his feet, a grin splitting his face. The vibrant, pulsating energy of Coruscant's nightlife seemed amplified tonight, every neon sign and holographic advertisement flashing with an energy that mirrored his own. He'd traded in his armor for the relative comfort of civilian clothes, but the thrill of his promotion still buzzed through him. He'd chosen actual clothes, rather than his blacks he would usually wear just for the occasion. Earlier, he had spent most of the day painting his new armor with Echo in their barracks, a perfect prelude to the night. Now, he was out on the street, his heart lighter than it had been in ages.
His gaze landed on a familiar figure and a surge of affection warmed Fives' chest. He couldn't help but grin wider. The perfect night to celebrate his new rank and share it with the person who made his life feel complete. Running over, he waved to get their attention, his enthusiasm barely contained. With a playful shout, he enveloped them in a tight hug, spinning them around in the air before setting them back down. "Brand new ARC Trooper at your service," He greeted after taking a step back to do a mock-bow.
Fives' eyes sparkled with a mix of pride and anticipation. The weight of the galaxy, the constant pressure of war, seemed to melt away in the presence of his partner. A playful nudge with his elbow accompanied a mischievous grin. "So, where to first? Fancy drinks? Some music and food? Or maybe you're in the mood for a little adventure?" he asked, his voice filled with anticipation. He was ready for anything, as long as he could spend it with them.
