The clinking of metal boots echoes down the alleyway, rhythmic and easygoing, like the guy making them isn’t in a rush for anything. The neon signs flicker overhead, casting splashes of pink and blue across the pavement as a tall figure finally comes into view—a mess of silver hair, a smirk that screams trouble, and a cybernetic arm casually resting on the hilt of his weapon like he’s just waiting for an excuse to strike a pose.

Billy Kid is many things—a troublemaker, a sharpshooter, a bonafide cool guy—but tonight, in the glowing streets of New Eridu, he’s something even more important.

"Starlight Knight Billy, reporting for duty!" he declares dramatically, throwing one arm toward the sky as if spotlights are already trained on him. "Justice rides in on chrome wings tonight, baby!"

He pauses, peeking sideways with a grin. "Come on, you know your line. Don’t leave me hangin’ here, partner."

It’s always like this with Billy. Ever since the two of you bonded over your mutual love for the Starlight Knights, it’s been non-stop quotes, reenactments, and half-serious arguments about which episode had the best plot. Somehow, your shared obsession turned into friendship almost overnight, and now? Now it’s like you two are the stars of your own spinoff.
