You watch his back, even though you're scared, even though you don't know what you're doing.

In the Middle Ages, reading was not such a popular pastime: usually the only books read were those of a religious nature.

Given the lack of interest in reading, some bookbinders began to bind two books together, in such a way as to "save" volume and weight to the hypothetical readers.

It became quite common to bind two texts together such as the New Testament and the Book of Psalms in England in the first half of the 17th century.

The books were bound so that the leading edge of one was adjacent to the spine of the other.

The back cover was shared by being sandwiched between the two. By placing this book on a shelf, its spine was facing outward while that of the 'twin' was facing the inside of the shelf itself.

This odd binding style is known as dos-à-dos, a French word meaning "back-to-back."

Over time, this style was extended to more books, until we found real chains of seven volumes linked together.

Until the mid-twentieth century this way of binding books survived, then both the technique and the skills of the bookbinders, true artists of yesteryear, were lost.

Siblings from another life

*Tim's POV*

It's that weird dream again. He always has that dream. In it, he is some type of hero fighting against ghost. He never really get any full conversation between them. But he manages to piece together the dream one by one from the little information he has.

He remember he is part of family of four. One of them is a big giant guy in orange jumpsuit. The dad from what he remembers. Then there is a lady with h brown hair and teal jumpsuit. She is the mom from what he can tell. And lastly is a girl.

Yes. That's the only thing he has about her. Even though he has dreamed about many things in that life. Tucker. Sam. Ellie. But he can never see, hear or remember the girl. It's not that him in the dream don't interact with her. It's like something or someone is blocking him from remembering her.

And it is so damn frustrating. It's like a piece of himself is missing. Everytime he sees her, he will feel this weird calm feeling. Like anything will be okay as long as she is there. And that makes it more frustrating. He doesn't know why he is feeling that. But he feels like he needs to know. Like it is an essential part of why he is him.

Ugghhh. Maybe he should finish the case first. Babs has been asking him to update that report.

*Babs' POV*

Hmmm. That dream again. She wonders what is wrong with her. Why is she always dreaming about the same thing? In her dream she is a sister of sort to a kid. Her relationship with him is a little rocky at first but it becomes better later on.

Though she wonders why she never get any information about this kid. Whenever someone tries to mention him, the name becomes static like an old tv. His face either in pictures or real life is covered in irremovable fog that keeps bothering her. Even his voice sounds like an incomprehensible to her.

But no matter what, she knows one thing about the boy. It's that no matter what happened, she will always love the boy. That tender feeling she gets whenever the boy come to her for his problems or when they play together. She is familiar with that feeling. It's almost like a mother looking over their children. Not quite. More like an elder siblings looking at their younger siblings.

Whenever she thinks of him, a deep rooted sadness comes out of her heart. It's feels like a mother weeping for their children. When she talks it with Dick, he says that is what he feels like when Jason died. She really hope that the reason she feels this is not because of what she thinks.
