Fic Update: Chapter 5 of Fence Sitting

"Jazz was surprised to find himself... grateful, for this fact, because Glaciea III was completely covered in snow. There were enormous drifts of it all over the landing pathway, in an abundance nearly unheard of for Cybertron. There was little water or natural oil on the planet, and what little there was of it kept to the far west and north of the globe. Iacon hadn’t seen precipitation—nevertheless snow!—for centuries.

“You— y-you act like such a cadet, sometimes!” Sentinel blustered. “I’d have you t-taken off the guard track, for that stunt alone!”
Jazz whacked him in the pauldron-guard with another snowball.
“Oh, but that’s why your graduation rate was so terrible, Captain! You can’t take a little snow? I’d hate to see you with a real problem cadet…”
