Just hanging out together, having drinks, nothing to see here!
It had been a long haul, that much, was true.
With missions upon missions leaving hardly any time for sleep let alone any time off for that matter. And so when shore leave was finally on the horizon, knocking on the airlock door, the members of the Bad Batch took it very, very seriously. The lot of them did!
Hunter and Wrecker had agreed on a fishing trip, taking out camping in the wilderness. The two enjoying the peace and quiet of nature. Echo, having been invited on a trip with his friends in the 501st, which included Rex but of course. And so, leaving Crosshair and Tech to figure out what they wanted to do for this, somewhat rare opportunity.
And it wasn’t a hard decision to make at all for either of them.
The two of them being pretty similar when it came to leisure time. With no real action needed rather just wanting to, well, hang out. Do absolutely nothing. To charge their batteries. And have a drink or few (many more).
As to why not? It was time to relax and they both liked their liquor, especially the good stuff.
Tech and Crosshair were standing on the ramp of the Marauder, sending the two other Batchers off to their respective fun time. The ship already at the port where they would come and pick them up in a few days. Echo already having been picked up by Rex and his crew just before.
“Don’t get eaten by Nexus!” Crosshair certainly being in a good mood.
The sniper already having something in mind which he wanted to have first. The bar on this particular outpost, to where him and Tech were headed to, being among the best wine brewing planets in the whole galaxy. Rumoured to be at least according to their holonet research. But yeah, it was something worth checking out for sure.
“And don’t forget our deadline!” Tech reminded the duo, knowing them well enough and how their sense of time during fun activities lost its course.
“We won’t!” Hunter assured them.
“Have fun you two!” Wrecker waved, following Hunter to the trail taking them deep into the woods of the lush planet they had decided taking their hike into.
“Don’t worry, we will!” Crosshair chuckled, turning to Tech the two sharing a wicked smirk before getting back to the ship and taking to their destination of fun.

Crosshair and Tech had arrived to their destination.
Standing at the entrance to one of the more popular clubs, the two could not have been more ready for their kind of R and R. The liquid kind. Even if Hunter and Echo had reminded them of all the dangers of over indulging and such. Well, sometimes, there was no such thing as too much of the good stuff. As this was certainly the planet for such debauchery.
“Ready?”
“Yup. Let’s get moving.”
Their stroll filled with that of confidence, the taste of the fine wines already on their tongues, Tech and Crosshair were totally ready to go on this, planned bender.

They were sitting at the bar, giggling like giddy children.
Their chatting and jokes already below the belt as it were, the lewd talk having started a few moments ago.
“Oh come one Tech! You have to… admit it… hic” Crosshair having a slight slur in his speech, not that either of them were that drunk, holding their liquor pretty well as they usually did. “Hunter has a large size rod stuck up his shebs sometimes… And I’m not talking about any of ours!”
Tech burst into laughter, the remnants of his last gulp spewing out as he did.
“Well, am I right or am I right?”
Tech, wiping his chin was grinning. The implication of their poly activities something to smile about for sure with the all too vivid image crossing Tech’s mind of the double entendre of Crosshair’s quip.
“Well, I admit, that Hunter can be a stickler sometimes for sure.”
“We really need to take better care of him.” Crosshair reminded Tech, the Sergeant having been in a mood lately. “He needs a good shag as soon as he is back.”
“I agree. Truly I do, Cross. But we have been on so many missions lately, there is hardly time for sleep let alone anything else.” Tech alongside the rest of the team having gotten tired of all the running around, but now they had their reward. Sort of. Still, the team having decided on splitting up and do their own activities, leaving no time for the much needed group fun.
“Well, guess you have to make time for the more important things in life.” Crosshair sounded suddenly solemn, missing their team together time as he did.
Tech was looking surprised, his gaze on Crosshair. But then again, Tech knew well how deep Crosshair sometimes could be even if he did not let it show. Not much anyway.
“You are right of course. And I would say, the two of us should take initiative, right after we are all back together again.”
Crosshair could only nod in agreement. The two could easily do that. But for now, it was the two of them, and Crosshair had other ideas for their time together as well.
“So, what do you say then Tech. Should we get back to our room and start practicing?” His eyebrows raised suggestively as he stated it. “For the event of the whole team?”
Tech leaned into Crosshair, giving him a smooch on his lips then and there.
“I would say… we simply have to. And practice quite throughly as it is. Never having enough practice!”
Tech and Crosshair both laughed at that note.
Downing their drinks before taking off to their rented room for the duration. Ready for a night of hot… um… practicing. Honing their tactics so to take better care of the others!
After all, practice makes perfect!
