To those familiar with his temperament, Shamus had been surprisingly quiet
throughout the meeting. The very model of self-restraint, even. Only those
team members standing closest to him could make out his clenched fists and
overhear his muttering "Can't say something nice -- don't say nothing at
all. Can't say something nice -- don't say nothing at all," over and over
to himself.

After the meeting, Shamus headed directly for Hanna. "Prep work for the
time trials, good. I need to ride." Instead of being infuriated, he seemed
more demoralized than anything else. All he wanted to do was race, and
nothing was turning out the way he'd thought. This readily apparent
weariness made him look even older than his teammates than usual.
