    Summary

    Manuela has had a long, awful day made worse by a terrible staff meeting. She needs a good drink, a good book, and some pampering.

    When a brilliant table of young women asks for her help in studying, she of course has the time. But the self-doubts and self-deprecation finally break Manuela, and all of her deepest pain bubbles up in a desperate attempt to spare the next generation.

    “That’s a lovely way to say you’ll tear yourself to pieces rather than let anyone else do it for you,” Manuela replied dryly. Manuela drew her breath - heavens, it shook - tears hovering in her eyes. “If you learn one thing from me, one thing –” Manuela swallowed heavily. “I know the world is cruel. But don’t you dare be cruel to yourself.” Manuela’s breath shuddered. So much rage burned inside of her, it felt she should have burned to ash by now. “Make them do it. Make the bastards reveal their horrible selves. Evil wants you to wither. So don’t. Whether you succeed or fail spectacularly, defend your worth every step of the way. Be furiously, terrifyingly kind to yourself.”

    Summary

    Felix is an emotionally stilted and perfectionistic pianist studying performance at University. And Byleth is an emotionally stilted and chaotic pianist studying musicology. They both need to figure out where their ambitions lead--they just didn't realize that they would be doing it together.

    Between the noisy rock of Mach Coffeehouse and the classical Open Concerts of the music faculty, the two find themselves competing on all fronts. But can they reconcile their different styles enough to duel duet?
