The Fencing Club is almost ready to begin, with just a few spaces left to be filled before the college faculty will consider the club viable. Easy, right?

“They do actually,” Rip shushed him. “Gideon, what’s wrong?”

Killer Frost tilted her head sideways. "You just won't quit," her lips spread into a smirk. "Will you, Detective West?"
