April 2024 Ed Desk: Taking Stock
Heya, Comets! “Spring Break was too fast” may be a common sentiment, and in this case it’s too true.

Benson Takes the Rocks in the Divorce
Dallas isn’t built to accommodate downpours like this. The gutters are overflowing into frigid puddles, sloshing around their ankles and soaking into their socks — but for once, Temoc is grateful for the rain. “Don’t do this,” he breathes, like it could possibly begin to help. “Richard, please.” If the other man gave a response, […]
