[There comes a time in every adult's life when something comes along and renders them completely and utterly child-like. Such things don't really happen for Wash, however; he's far too rule-minded and serious about most things to let himself go like that. And besides, it's not...really easy for him to anyway. He tries, and those who have known him for years in Project Freelancer know he's, well, a bit awkward and dorky when it comes to some things. (And gullible, which certain Freelancers know all too damn well.)
But this new thing? Ohhh, oh, it makes him happy and he's having no trouble showing it.
He stands at the top of the coliseum, a bulky-looking thing attached to the back of his armor. It's a shame he has a helmet on. He has this nervous but wide grin on his face. Ever since he saw Tex using one of these, he's wanted to try it--and now he can. They've had their initial training courses, sure, but a time will come when they will have to use these things in the field, so...why not practice...? He knows he shouldn't bring equipment like this to the Plane, but really, he's brought various guns, ammo, and other training equipment here and hasn't gotten in trouble for it yet. Borrowing the jetpack for a while will be just fine. (And he reminds himself that yes, it's okay. It will be fine and in no way will this get him in trouble with the higher-ups. Seriously.)
Peering over the edge, the ground seems like it's farther away than it was before, but that's okay! The jetpack will break his fall! (Of course, it helps that he didn't really hear too much about the incident with Georgia when he was first testing the equipment out. He wouldn't be anywhere near as excited to use it.)]
Watch out below!
[His warning given, his eyes flicker over to the jetpack indicator in his helmet visor, reaffirming for himself that it is indeed in full working order and he's not about to jump and break his legs doing this. At least this is nothing like the skydiving training they did, he reminds himself. Nervously, he inches closer to the edge and takes a deep breath...]
[ooc: the Freelancers have moved up in their canon to the end of S9! ~Stuff~ has happened, and more stuff is to come, but for now? JETPACKS! \o/]
