It was a certain comment on Felix's frame of mind that he noticed the title of the book before the young man holding it. The last months had been a series of extremely private emotional thunderstorms, hurt and anger packed down in his heart and suppressed, eating away at him. In all of that time, he had thought of Alcuin frequently, but had not contacted him. Alcuin still bore the label of 'Shannon's friend' in Felix's mind, and he could not know whose side the young beauty would take.
Felix had paused with his cup and saucer on his way to find a table, just to scan the title of the book that had caught his eye. Darkly, he wondered if he mightn't need just such a manual before long. Only then did he realize that he recognized the elegant white hands turning the pages.

"Alcuin?" he asked in surprise.
