(no subject)

After his first foray into the bar, his thoughts are a little more ordered. People were less hostile than he thought they'd be. It helps.

But it doesn't address the underlying issue. Not the science of trying to get rid of the Other Guy, but his own lack of ability to deal with it. And now he knows for sure that killing himself isn't an option. He also knows that that thought shouldn't be the agony it is.

He's always been the kind of man who fixes problems. It's increasingly clear that he's not doing very well at managing that on his own. And besides, it's logical. It's law, isn't it? Someone turns up at a hospital as a suicide attempt, they're automatically given a therapist.

He leaves a note at the bar for Charles. He doesn't know if he can trust him, but Guppy seems to think he knows his stuff. He can only try. If it doesn't work, he'll just have to try something else.

He asks for the guy to come to the cell in the office. He's started to hate it, but at least it's secure. There's always the chance this could go very wrong.
