[QUOTE="talien, post: 4367543, member: 3285"] [b]Nemo Solus Sapit: Part 8 – Van Dyson’s Office[/b] Van Dyson’s office was decorated in southern California’s typical High Sierra look, reflecting the natural surroundings of the clinic. Spanish artworks and wall hangings accented the tasteful, though not indulgent, furnishings. Guppy stared at the picture frames on Van Dyson’s desk, the diplomas on the wall, the books by noted fathers of neurology (works by Hughlings Jackson, Kurt Goldstein, Henry Head, A.R. Luria). A framed quote read: "If You Do Know That Here Is One Hand, We'll Grant You All The Rest.' -- Wittgenstein" Van Dyson hung up the phone. He took a look at Guppy and tried to smile, but it came off as condescending – there was nothing to smile about. “I’m sorry about this, Hank. I know you’re in a difficult situation, but cutting yourself is not the solution.” “But I didn’t cut myself! The woman—“ “Hank, has it ever occurred to you that this woman is a projection of your fears? I’m concerned that your personalities are continuing to fracture. We can up the dosage of your medication, but I’m concerned about you…if you start harming yourself we’ll have to restrain you, and nobody wants that.” “I…” Guppy shook his head. “I didn’t do it…” “I know you didn’t mean to, Hank. We’re going to do everything in our power to help you. Since your father disowned you, we're your family now and we're all going down to the wire to protect you and help you in any way we –“ Guppy focused on the picture on Van Dyson’s desk. It was the woman who haunted his dreams. “That’s her!” said Guppy. “That’s the woman!” “Who?” asked Van Dyson. “Her!” Guppy picked up the portrait and turned it around. “This is the woman whom I’ve been seeing!” “Well now we know where you’re getting your visions from.” Van Dyson sighed. “Hank, that’s my wife, Candice.” “I know what I saw!” “You've seen that photograph at least a dozen times, every time you've been in this office. You're just confused –“ Damon knocked on the door. “Doctor, can I speak to you?” The men step outside. Guppy turned the portrait around to stare at it. “I know it’s you. But what are you trying to tell me?” [/QUOTE]
