Nose deep in a paperback version of Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque, the world around her was beautifully silent and blank. So much so that she didn't notice the man-boy across the coffee shop staring at her. Smiling when she smiled at the word on the page. Watching her carefully from a distance. He was shocked when he found himself walking to her table. And even more shocked when he spoke.

"Hi." She glances up from the book and smiles. "Hello."

He holds out his hand, "I'm Lazarus." And she takes it.

"Saturn."
