Alcuin had only just gotten to the point where he felt comfortable walking around the city again, without fear of some tabloid reporter popping up out of the bushes. It was true what they said about the news - people were fickle, and they were already onto the next thing ( Read more... )

When Alcuin saw a doctor as a follow-up from his initial hospital visit, removing his stitches and ensuring that the wound where he'd been stabbed was healing cleanly, the doctor had seemed terribly concerned about his mental stability.
