Besides, I am in Engineering and getting banged up is kind of in my job description…and I’m a human female.” A smirk formed as she copied his tone from earlier.

“MARCUS! Size…what!? Fourteen!? Fifteen!?” Garnett called over to Marcus while Zletka collected the other skates. Zletka had received the third pair of skates when a familiar link of emotions caught her attention.
