YALE PSYCHIATRIC - THE TRAGIC CASE OF FATHER JOHN WARD (FAITH: THE UNHOLY TRINITY)

With the new drop of development notes into the GOODIES folder of the game, I wanted to revisit an old analysis I did way back during the era of the Chapter 2 demo.

The long story made short is this: John has an interesting psychology that is backed by the in-game letters and allusions to his hospitalization at Yale Psychiatric. That being said, it isn't really expanded upon because it's not a core element to the plot.

Which, to an extent, can be disagreed with because it is entirely possible that the events of The Unholy Trinity are told through the perspective of an unreliable narrator (John), which then means that some (if not all) events that take place are exaggerated and intensified by John's mental state.

If you ask me, I see the series of events as a blend of details. Demons exist and the cult is very much up to something, but certain things are manipulated to fit a narrative (think, the Martin twins. Amy's mother miscarried, yet John was manipulated into believing the cult had kidnapped the born children for their rituals). I might expand on that another time, but for now, here is my perspective on the characterization of John Ward, and how mental illness plays a significant role throughout the series.

DISCLAIMER: I am not a psychiatric professional. I do have a degree and spent years studying the intersection between the mental health and correctional systems, but I am not a clinician or an individual with a lot of clinical knowledge. I'm just a guy with too much time on their hands and a tendency to let the autism win (/lh /j). Also, if there are any grammar issues… I know. It was, like, 3 AM when I wrote this, and I don't care to tidy it up more than I have tried to.

With this out of the way, let's dive into it. Below the cut will be spoilers for the game and discussions regarding psychiatric abuse. Reader discretion is advised.

In-game dialog and other citations will be highlighted using small text, as I cannot for the life of me get the indent/blockquote feature to work on desktop.

As of writing this post (January 2023), there are five notes regarding John's admission to Yale Psychiatric after the failed exorcism of Amy Martin. I'm going to transcribe them in order of events, and not in the order they are found. The first note we would see examining John's case file, if he were an actual patient, would be the intake assessment form:

Yale Psychiatric Institute NEW PATIENT INTAKE FORM

Patient Name: Ward, John Thomas

Age: 33 Sex: M Ethnicity: White/Caucasian

Assigned Counselor: Spinel, James, PhD

Health Examination Results: Height: 6 feet 2 inches Weight: 185 lbs HR: 92 bpm Blood Pressure: 135/81

Current Status: Minor cuts and bruises, sprain in left ankle.

Patient is in a state of psychologic shock.

Existing Conditions:

Asthma (dormant) Diminished mobility from childhood injury to right knee.

Notice the little note there about psychologic shock. We do get elaboration on the comment made by whoever conducted the intake process, which come from Yale Psychiatric Notes 1 & 2:

Notes - new patient initial consultation

Subject: John Thomas Ward

Present: Dr. James Spinel, PhD, and two orderlies

Subject non-responsive for first half-hour, followed by fragmented 'exorcism' narrative

Subject unable to maintain consistency in story (for example, stating that Amy was in the basement and then saying she was in the attic)

Subject insists incident was the result of demonic possession

Cannot declare subject of sound mind; will require several more sessions to fully understand subject's mental state. Will advise Martin Family attorneys.

—

Subject is suffering from delusion. In John's mind, he plays the role of the hero sent by God to protect the innocent. In order to escape the consequences of his actions, he has created his own reality. In order for everything to make sense, he needs to believe in the evil spirits and paranormal occurrences. I recommend an in-vivo approach until we can get John to accept the truth.

And for the love of God, please have Ms. Martin transferred to another facility. Somehow, John knows that she is in here with him.

Then there's the newer documentation and references to In Vivo, found in the GOODIES folder of the game. See the text around bullet point 3.

There are several roughly drawn images of the page, consisting of level mapping for puzzles in what the developer has called, in previous notes, GaryLand. The text beside bullet point 3 reads "Mini-environments to collect keys. Re-contextualized once you grab key (lost In Vivo). Placement of plagas cultists is 'contested space'. Keys? Sigils? Body parts? Notes alluding that John was there". Beside the last note is a doodle of the eyes emoji, with two stylized eyes looking to the left toward the text. END DESCRIPTION.]

Here's the thing about psychiatric institutions: They suck.

The mental health system in modern day America is better than it was in the 80s, naturally, but not by much. It is important to note that the deinstitutionalization of the mental health system was the right call to make. However, I must note that the lack of funding and resource allocation (mostly due to greed among politicians and public perception of those with mental illness) made it so that individuals are still institutionalized. As of the modern era, individuals with mental illness are disproportionately incarcerated.

The Prison Policy Initiative has a wonderful online research library with up-to-date and reflective research on the rates and treatment of individuals incarcerated, as well as how current carceral practices only work to exacerbate these issues through intensive focus on punishment:

But traveling back in time, before the tides shifted, we have to understand what the environment was like within psychiatric wards/asylums.

The deinstitutionalization of mental health emerged in the 50s following World War II. To make a very long story short, the human rights abuses were put into the spotlight. Several factors, such as inhumane living conditions, harmful treatment practices (which we will elaborate on later), and the rising costs and demand for psychiatric treatment, all contributed to the call for deinstitutionalization. The goal was to improve the quality of life for people with mental illness, and to really just… allow them to exist as humans within society. Though the movement began in the 50s, it didn't gain much popularity among advocate groups until the 60s and 70s (e.g., the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) and Project Release), where the movement truly took off.

However, large-scale closures of institutions didn't actually happen until the 80s, at least in the States. This means that, come 1986/1987, there were still institutions actively running. If you'd like to read more about how psychiatric institutions were run in this era, then I highly recommend reading Dr. David Laing Dawson's personal testimonies as a clinician during the era of asylums and advocacy:

But what were popular treatment modalities for patients like John? Firstly, and mentioned in the in-game notes, we have In Vivo Exposure Therapy, or more simply put: Exposure Therapy.

The American Psychiatric Association, in their Clinical Practice Guideline(s) for the Treatment of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (2023), define In Vivo Exposure as:

Directly facing a feared object, situation or activity in real life. For example, someone with a fear of snakes might be instructed to handle a snake, or someone with social anxiety might be instructed to give a speech in front of an audience.

This intervention is not limited to PTSD, though, and is often used for other clinical concerns such as phobias, panic and anxiety, and (in some cases) Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. The ultimate goal is to break the pattern of avoidance while confronting the fear in a safe environment. Which is great… for patients who are ready to confront these things. If there's one lesson to take away from this post, it's that treatment cannot be forced. Treatment is ineffective if the person requiring it is non-consenting or otherwise unwilling/unable to go through the modality.

So when you look at a patient like John, who is in an active state of crisis, and decide the best treatment intervention is to (effectively) tell him to "Suck it up" and induce anxiety and fear? It's disgusting and it would, in a realistic scenario, only exacerbate his symptoms even further. Which it seems to do, if the line about John having a reaction to Amy's presence in Yale Psychiatric is anything to go by. The man believes she is possessed by a demon (or knows she is), and has intense dread and anxiety around trying to save her (to the point where it's already a fixation). Exposing him to Amy's presence, or even the possibility of it, is not going to do him well until he is guided down from a crisis state and able to understand what is going on (as well as process the events that took place in the Martin home, because Amy would be a psychological trigger of recollection for said events).

John's official diagnoses are, ultimately, mild anxiety and acute coulrophobia (aka: fear of clowns). This much is clarified in the release form:

RELEASE FORM

SUBJECT: John Thomas Ward

DOR: 31 Oct 1986

This form certifies that the subject is hereby released from my care after having completed their required counseling and treatment to my satisfaction, with confidence that they are ready to resume their normal daily activities as a mentally stable member of society.

Dr. James Spinel, PhD

EXISTING CONDITION:

Mild anxiety

Acute coulrophobia

As an aside, can we just point out how John was only admitted for a month, give or take some days? Even if we take the events at face value (aka: demons are real; Hell is real; Lucifer is planning an invasion of Earth to reclaim what God has taken from him-), this feels… entirely too short to state that John is fully recovered.

At least from my interpretation of the intent behind "a mentally stable member of society", as the stigmatization of mental illness would place the burden of showing minimal, if any, signs of distress within day to day life… unless you were a hard-working husband who drank off most of his time at home while beating his wife, lest we forget the nuclear family values and toxic masculinity that still run rampant in American society. But I digress...

And immediately bring your attention to a bit of a continuity issue that, effectively, renders my last point moot: John's letter to Dr. McGlashan, who we can assume is a director of sorts within Yale Psychiatric.

This note is dated for December 30th, 1986:

Dear Dr. McGlashan,

It has been thirty days since the beginning of my treatment here at Yale Psychiatric Institute. Dr. Spinel, who has been so patient with me, has helped me understand my afflictions and has helped me fund a way to move forward and accept the truth.

With Dr. Spinel's help, I have come to accept what really happened in September at the Martin family residence. I accept that what happened was not the result of any supernatural phenomenon, but rather the desperate actions of a young girl driven to violence by her dogmatic parents and old church rituals that are thought to drive out evil.

I am happy to report that, since accepting the truth, my nightmares have ceased and I now enjoy peace of mind that I have not felt since the incident. Given my progress since first coming here, I respectfully request my release from Yale Psychiatric Institute, contingent upon follow-up appointments with Dr. Spinel in the future.

Sincerely,

John Ward

And raises several questions, such as:

If the failed exorcism took place in September, does this mean that John was within Yale Psychiatric from September to December?

Why was there a release form authorized in October 1986 by Dr. Spinel?

John states, "It has been thirty days since the beginning of my treatment […]". Does this mean that there was a second admission period between October and December?

If there was, when did that occur? Was he brought back in during the last weeks of October? In November?

My personal belief is that John was institutionalized twice. Once immediately following the failed exorcism, and once more after due to a relapse (hence the specification "[…] contingent upon follow-up appointments with Dr. Spinel in the future."). John, by this point, is aware of his mental health concerns and acknowledges that he needs more in regard to his treatment. Here, he's showing a clear capacity to establish and (hopefully) follow a community treatment regiment.

And this is where a bibically-accurate, canonical analysis, would end. A bit of insight into what happened, why it happened, and the ramifications (albeit brief). But here's the thing:

I believe there's more to John's case, since I believe in the blending of two prominent theories (everything is real versus everything is imagined). Personally, based on these notes and a few key dialogs within Chapter 3, I believe that John (in addition to the Anxiety) experiences Psychosis brought on by Paranoid Schizophrenia. In context of the game's plot, he experiences Persecutory and Grandiose Religious Delusions.

Let me explain.

There are several types of delusions, and the severity of these delusions can vary from individual to individual. More on the specifics (as well as recommended treatment modalities) can be found in this PDF.

Generally speaking, though, the types of delusions I mentioned are described as follows:

Grandiose: An individual experiences an exaggerated sense of importance, power, knowledge, or identity, that may have some type of theme.

Persecutory: An individual is fixated on the prospect of being attacked, harassed, persecuted, or conspired against.

Sounds familiar, yeah? Let's break it down:

Grandiose: Exhibited in all chapters. John is of the belief that he is a destined savior to Amy Martin. That he is the only one who can save her from the demon(s) plaguing her because he is the only one with the power and ability to do so. He, in the Super Miriam boss fight, also claims to have God's power directly within him. That he, in a way, is God (at least, in that moment).

Persecutory: Exhibited in all chapters, prominent in Chapter 3. In Chapter 1, there's "The Offering" Ending. John is (or perceives to be) stopped in the middle of the road home by Gary and his cult. Then, in Chapter 3, the entire arc around Gary's cult centers around the idea of John being persecuted (targeted by the cult for his attempts to save Amy).

But I feel like this expansion on John's psyche is supported within the canon itself, even if not explicit. Let's look more at the dialog cues from other characters.

One thing that slates me toward this conclusion is the brief mention of John's mother, Meredith. Amy's demon taunts John by asking him "What about Meredith? Did she get better?" and says how he couldn't save her. And based on the delivery of this line, it's clear that some sort of illness was what killed Meredith. Given that Schizophrenia in of itself typically doesn't cause death (though symptoms can contribute to other factors, such as poor physical health, risk-taking behaviors, higher risks of suicide), we have to look beyond the mental health aspect for a brief moment.

According to fairly recent research, there have been connections made between an individual's Schizophrenia diagnosis and their likelihood for developing Alzheimer's Disease. Kochunov et al. (2020) state:

"Schizophrenia (SZ) is a severe psychiatric illness associated with an elevated risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Both SZ and AD have white matter abnormalities and cognitive deficits as core disease features. […] SZ and AD have diverse etiologies and clinical courses; our findings suggest that white matter deficits may represent a key intersecting point for these 2 otherwise distinct diseases. Identifying mechanisms underlying this white matter deficit pattern may yield preventative and treatment targets for cognitive deficits in both SZ and AD patients."

Now, as a personal note, I have seen and experienced what Alzheimer's can do to people and how long of a process it is. My maternal grandfather, tragically, passed due to the illness in 2020. I still cannot discuss the symptomatology and progression in full as a result of the grief, but I can direct attention to the Alzheimer's Association and their article on the stages of progression:

Returning to the psychoanalytical aspect, mental illness can be hereditary and passed down, in addition to being individually developed (through whatever means, which are often referred to as the biopsychosocial factors of development). Such is true with the case of Schizophrenia.

Additionally, there does seem to be evidence suggesting that John's perception of events is questionable. Of course, I must note here that every character in this story is an unreliable narrator. Every character has their motives in the information they share and how they share it. This is in no way, shape, or form, me saying that other characters are objectively right in their perceptions. Especially Gary.

Gary is a cult leader. Even if the cult is not as dramatized as they appear to be (e.g., they are not, in fact, kidnapping babies and sacrificing people)… he is still running a cult. He is still capable of being manipulative regardless. I can absolutely delve into the psychology and structure of cults, but this post is long enough as is.

So instead, let's look at what it is Gary says to contradict John's point of view. The primary dialog that I believe points us to a faulty perception is Gary's recollection of the Martin twins:

"Oh, John… deep down, you always knew the twins were an illusion. But you could not resist chasing after lost (hurt) souls. I suppose you wished they were real, just like the late Mrs. Martin. That is how I knew you would come to me."

The popular analysis among the fandom is that Mrs. Martin miscarried the twins, and experienced a rough patch of grief surrounding the event. Again, I have seen similar experiences in my personal life, so I can sympathize with and affirm how rough this process can be. This is why Mrs. Martin had put effort into the belief that they were still expected/born, with the room being set up for them and the crib being discarded in the Martin's basement (as well as the birthday party and clown aspect).

John knew this at the time of exorcising Amy, but his own mental break altered his perception of events and made him believe in the same narrative that Mrs. Martin presented: The twins were alive. The difference here is that John tied the twins into his perception of the game's events, and came to the conclusion that Gary (and his cult) kidnapped them for ritualistic reasons.

Likewise, a lot of Gary's dialog has key words switched out. A list of these words is as follows, with their substitutions in parentheses:

enter (abuse)

lost (hurt) souls

Vessel (Victim)

journey (despair)

Again, this could be a simple nod to Gary's capacity for manipulation as a cult leader. But that doesn't exclude it from also pointing out John's perception of the series' events. In fact, this could be John's psyche interjecting and affirming itself.

So, if John does have this diagnosis, what would a thorough treatment modality look like if they'd pinpointed it back then? If he was institutionalized a third time, after stopping the Profane Sabbath?

The answer to that is either Insulin Shock Therapy (IST)/Insulin Coma Therapy (ICT), or Chlorpromazine (a strong antipsychotic medication).

It's important to note here that IST/ICT fell out of favor in the 1960s, like most shock therapies (with the exception of electroconvulsive therapy). Jones (2000) details the history and modality of ICT, stating:

"Comas were induced on five or six mornings a week. Typically, the third dose of insulin was 10±15 units with a daily increase of 5±10 units until the patient showed severe hypoglycemia. Treatment continued until there was a satisfactory psychiatric response or until 50±60 comas had been induced. Experienced therapists let patients spend up to 15 minutes in 'deep coma' with hypotonia and absent corneal and pupillary reflexes. Clinicians noted gross variation between individuals in response to a given dose of insulin. Also, in the course of treatment a patient could show day-to-day variation in his reaction. Further there was an uncertain relationship between clinical signs and the blood glucose level. The hypoglycemia made patients extremely restless and liable to major convulsions. Comas were terminated by administration of glucose via a nasal tube or intravenously."

If any of this sounds vaguely familiar, it's because the treatment modality was highlighted in the story of John Nash, a fundamental American mathematician with Schizophrenia.

The 2001 film A Beautiful Mind showcases Nash's story, including the usage of ICT. Attached is a video clip from the film, which contains content that may be triggering/disturbing. Watching it is not vital to this analysis, as it's to illustrate the paragraph above:

Ultimately, the takeaway is this:

Mental illness plays a huge role in the game's overarching narrative, even if not considered a major plot element in of itself. The Satanic Panic was a moral panic used by fundamentalist Christians to excuse abuse within their churches, excuse the discrimination of BIPOC and queer folk, and dismiss rising concerns regarding mental health advocacy. This, alongside simply targeting youth subcultures to preserve the nuclear family imagery that arose during the previous generations.

John Ward is easily one of the most fascinating characters to exist, in my opinion, because of how his character is linked to this idea. John Ward is a beacon (for a lack of better term) for this message within the game. He exhibits mental health issues canonically (re: the official diagnoses) and can be analyzed as having a deeper, more expansive diagnosis.

Everything I have said is interpretation, and is not entirely canon in the bibically-accurate sense. This is just a topic that's been in my mind since the release of Chapter 2's demo. You can feel free to agree or disagree with literally anything I have said, and I love hearing others' interpretations as well! The theories scattered around the fandom, whether posted on the Fandom Wiki or hidden in the tags on Tumblr, are just… so good. So I wanted to help contribute in some way!

And for those that read this far... Thank you <3

On July 5th 1820, William Rankine, the engineer and physicist, was born.

William John Macquorn Rankine was the son of professional soldier and later civil engineer David Rankine and the daughter of Glasgow banker Barbara Grahame. He attended grammar school at Ayr and Glasgow only a few years after the family moved there in 1830.

After reading, at the age of fourteen, Isaac Newton's greatest work, Principia Mathematica in Latin, he became interested in physics.

At the age of sixteen, in 1836, he began to study natural science at the University of Edinburgh, where he was taught, among other things, natural philosophy under James David Forbes and natural history under Robert Jameson.

In 1838 he left the university and became an assistant to the Irish civil engineer John Benjamin MacNeill. He worked here on the design of railways, the construction of ports and the construction of sewers. In 1855 he was appointed Professor of Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Glasgow.

Rankine became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1849 and of the Royal Society in London in 1853. He was also a Fellow of the Royal Swedish Society of Sciences and of the American American Academy of Arts and Sciences. In 1857 he founded a Scottish branch of the "Institution of Civil Engineers" and served as its first president until 1870. In 1857 Rankine received an honorary doctorate from Trinity College, Dublin.

In addition to his work as a civil engineer, Rankine has made a number of contributions to science. He wrote standard works on mechanics, the theory and practice of steam, the principles of civil engineering, and mechanical principles of construction.

Rankine's work was able to bridge the gap between engineering practice and scientific inquiry.

And If Thou Wilt, Forget: a TMA fanfic

Read from the beginning on Tumblr || AO3 || My Website

Chapter 29: I would not cast anew the lot once cast

Tim stared at himself in the mirror and wondered, again, why he was doing this.

Not going back to the Institute. He had no choice in that. Even if he’d wanted to quit, he’d signed his soul back over—unknowingly, granted, he’d really had no reason to believe Elias was telling the truth that day in his office, but the difference between devils and lawyers was that hell didn’t care if you’d understood what you were signing—and belonged to the Archivist. Which, for better or for worse, was Jon. Currently, anyway.

No, what Tim wondered was why he was bothering to put effort into his appearance.

It was stupid. He’d never really worried about it under Gertrude—as long as he didn’t show up nude, she didn’t care what he wore as long as he did his job—and while he’d tried to dress a bit more professionally around the others, he’d at least let himself slide to business casual. Yet here he was, in a button down shirt and freshly pressed tailored trousers, carefully knotting his serious black tie into a trinity knot, which was the most even and complex knot he could currently remember the steps to tying. He was going full-on dress to impress here.

He paused in the act and studied himself. The holes from the worms had closed up and settled down, and while he’d probably be scarred for the rest of his life, he at least didn’t look like Swiss cheese anymore; they were little more than flat, dark patches against his skin, like extremely large, deformed freckles. There had been a worry that they would affect his movement, but apparently he’d kept himself in good enough shape that any damage had been minimal, and he hadn’t even needed physical therapy. His hair had grown out a bit more, and while he’d brushed it, it still flipped up at the ends in what Gerry called a casual I just rolled out of bed and I look this good kind of way. He’d take the compliment.

But his eyes…Tim met his eyes in the mirror and recognized that look in them. It was the same look he’d had when he first came to the Institute, the look that had faded over time as he’d become more involved in the work, as he’d grown closer to Gerry. It was grief, mingled with anger, sprinkled with a little bit of aimlessness. It was the look that spoke of someone who had lost something they were sworn to protect.

Today marked his first day back since Jane Prentiss had attacked the Institute. Only Gerry’s iron will had kept him from going back sooner—or at least breaking in to check out those tunnels. They’d used the intervening six weeks, first to recover, then to mourn Gertrude, then to start sorting out what they had on the Unknowing. After all, now that the Corruption’s ritual was no longer a threat, that was still the next one, right?

He’d more or less hit the limits on what he could research on his own, though, and it was time to get back to the Institute. Anyway, while he’d been okay…mostly…on his own, he was pretty sure the grace afforded by signing out officially was going to end sooner rather than later and he’d need to get back before he started going downhill.

Besides, he had to get back to protect Martin and Sasha.

Gerry’s face appeared alongside his in the glass. “I made reservations at the Ritz for tonight, so I’ll pick you up by the Carabiniers Memorial after you get off. Sound good?”

“Sounds good,” Tim said absently, then blinked and turned to look properly at Gerry. “The Ritz?”

“Thought we’d have a proper celebration,” Gerry said with a shrug. “Got a feeling we won’t be having a lot of those for a bit.”

“Okay, but what are we celebrating?”

Gerry raised an eyebrow. “It’s your work anniversary, isn’t it?”

Oh. Yeah. That was why it was so important he start back at the Institute today, wasn’t it?

Tim looked down at his right hand. It was the only part of his body that hadn’t been attacked by the worms, the only part still unmarred, a phenomenon he attributed solely and firmly to the matte black band encircling his middle finger, absence of any actual evidence be damned. Since the attack, he’d stopped taking it off even when he went to bed, which Gerry seemed to understand. He’d figured out by now that it was probably something to do with the Eye, and that when the vendor had said you have already begun to pay he meant that he’d already sacrificed himself to the Ceaseless Watcher, so maybe it was just protecting its investment. Still, it had protected him, kept away the Corruption—or at least the Corruption had avoided it—and if it meant he could hold up that hand and, metaphorically, say Thus far—no further to an invader, maybe it was worth it.

“Can’t believe it’s been three years,” he murmured. “And here I am starting a new chapter.”

Gerry tapped his collarbone twice with a forefinger, and Tim, understanding, turned back to the mirror to finish tying his tie. “I could tell you that it’s not really starting a new chapter, since you’ve technically been working for Jonathan Sims longer than you thought, but I get what you mean. Are you going to start calling him Archivist now?”

“He hasn’t earned that,” Tim growled, tugging viciously on the ends of the tie to secure the knot. “It’s more than a title and you know that. I’ll concede to boss because he is, but he’s going to have to prove he knows what he’s doing, and explain why he thinks he’ll do a better job than Gertrude, before he gets to be the Archivist.”

“You could always kill him.”

“Not without proof.”

Gerry sighed. Tim at first thought it was exasperation, but then he wrapped his arms around him from behind and hugged him tightly, and when Tim met his eyes in the mirror, he saw the genuine relief in them. “Thank God. You’re still you.”

Tim swallowed hard against the not totally unwarranted surge of guilt. “I’m not that angry with him. And…I can’t put Martin and Sasha at risk like that. Right now he’s the binding agent to their employment contracts, which means he’s the thing giving them the Institute’s protection. I kill him, anything could happen to them in the time it takes to get a new Archivist.”

“I would also like it if you would maybe not kill people who are still at least nominally human,” Gerry said with a raised eyebrow. “Apart from the fact that it’s kind of illegal, which admittedly hasn’t stopped us from a lot of things in the past, let’s not invite things to rush in and fill the spaces where humanity used to be if we can help it, yeah?”

“Thank God I have you to keep me sensible.” Tim gave Gerry a quick kiss. “Love you. See you at six. Try not to work too hard.”

It was a grey and drizzly morning. Since it wasn’t going to last the whole morning, and since Gerry had said he’d pick him up, Tim grabbed his umbrella on the way out the door. He’d given brief thought to using a newspaper again, but since he was wearing his good tailored suit and planning to go out later, he didn’t want to risk getting too mussed up. The early morning Tube held its usual eclectic mix of people, so he didn’t exactly stand out among the crowd.

Only as the train pulled into Stockwell did it occur to him that Martin might be wondering if Tim was going to offer him a ride in. He glanced at his phone, but there was no text. He also didn’t see Martin on the platform, though, so he’d just have to hope he wasn’t at home waiting for Tim to show up.

It wasn’t likely. They’d had brief contact here and there during Tim’s convalescence, mostly just checking in with each other, but Martin was good about reaching out. Reticent about what was going on at the Institute, although he had said Jon was back already, but he answered any questions or prompts from Tim readily enough. Mostly they’d talked about Rowlf, floated the possibility of meeting up at a park or something—that had never come to fruition—and a bit of desultory chatter about poetry or the weather. Tim had told Martin he was coming back in that morning, though.

Now, the question was whether Jon knew or not. Logically he should—even if the return to work forms went through Elias, technically, he ought to have informed Jon—but that didn’t mean he did. Tim certainly hadn’t told him. He was fairly sure he had Jon’s number…somewhere…but more importantly, Jon ought to have his number. And he hadn’t reached out, not once, to see how Tim was doing or get his statement or spook ominously at him.

Sasha hadn’t reached out either, and that hurt a little because he thought they’d been close, but at least that didn’t feel vaguely threatening like the absence of communication from Jon did.

He went in the front door when he got to the Institute, rather than the side door directly into the Archives. However many people were supposed to know Tim had returned, he wanted to be seen, he wanted people to know he had returned to the Institute and the Archives, because if Jon was going to do something to him he wanted people to know about it. It wasn’t likely, but then again, until they’d found her body Tim wouldn’t have thought Jon capable of killing Gertrude Robinson, so who knew. Whatever the case, no sense in making it easy.

He waved to Rosie, who waved back but—shockingly—didn’t try and engage him in conversation, nodded to a few other people who seemed to recognize him, and made his way down the steps. Pausing at the door, he took a deep breath, counted as much of one to five as he could currently remember, and opened it.

It looked the same as always. Again, he was confronted with the smells of industrial strength cleaning solvents, much more faded than they had been when he’d returned from his global jaunt but still there, and there was again the niggling sense of off, but for the most part, everything looked much as it had before Jane Prentiss had attacked. The only real new addition he could see was a square marked off with caution tape that presumably indicated where the trapdoor leading to the tunnels was. Tim dropped his umbrella in the stand and made a mental note to see if he could get into it later. Those tunnels would probably be worth exploring at some point.

“Well, hello there, stranger.”

A grin tugged at Tim’s mouth as he turned towards the voice and spread out his arms. “Get over here and give me a hug, you arse.”

Sasha complied almost before he finished the sentence, throwing her arms around his waist and squeezing him tightly. He hugged her back. The smell of her perfume—Chanel Number Five, he remembered, she’d joked about trying to take over Marilyn Monroe’s life—curled into his nostrils, and he notched another mark in the everything is still the same column. She still felt the same, too, warm and soft and round, the sort of gentle pillowy curves that would have been called pleasantly plump not too long ago, and she was dressed in her usual tiered maxi skirt and loose peasant top that was about three scarves and a tambourine away from being a dance costume, and he didn’t doubt that beneath them she wore the gold-strapped sandals she always wore as soon as it was warm enough to wear open toes and that she would ditch as soon as she got to her desk because she hated wearing shoes indoors. The Stranger’s mark still clung to her, too, the same as it always had, a tiny bit of common ground only Tim actually knew was common to them both that had given him something to build off of in bonding with her; she’d trust him with that secret someday, but in the meantime it was enough to know they’d both been marked by it.

“The scars look good on you,” she said, pulling back to study him. “They go well with the suit.”

“Shut up. What’s this all about?” Tim tugged teasingly at a shiny black curl and let it snap back into place. “Did you just decide to get a cut and a perm?”

Sasha laughed and shook her head, setting the corkscrews bobbing and oscillating around her head. “Just decided it was too much effort to straighten it every day. This is what I look like naturally. It looks shorter because it’s so curly, that’s all.”

“It suits you. Love the ‘Shirley Temple’s evil twin’ vibe you’ve got going.” Tim squeezed her hands tightly. “It’s good to see you again, Sash.”

“Good to see you, too, Tim.” Sasha’s topaz eyes sparkled with delight as she smiled up at him. “You’ve been missed.” Looking at something behind him, she added, “Hey, look what the cat dragged In.”

Tim turned around to see Martin, looking a bit on the pale and haggard side, with a stack of files in hand (already? Was he that late? He could’ve sworn it was earlier than that), emerging from the shelves. His whole face brightened in a genuine smile as he laid eyes on Tim, though, and at least some of the exhaustion and stress melted away. “Tim, hi!”

“Hey, Marto.” Tim held out his arms, and Martin barely stopped long enough to put down the files before hugging him back. “How are you doing, buddy?”

“Oh, you know, same old, same old,” Martin said with a nervous little laugh. “Can’t complain, really.”

“I bet you could.” Tim pulled back to study Martin critically. He was…obviously not having a great time. There were no two ways around that. The hints of the Lonely that teased around him didn’t look much stronger than they had before, which was good, but they weren’t noticeably fainter either. The dark circles under his eyes that had been there more or less since he’d moved into the Archives were gone, but the eyes themselves were worried and slightly haunted. He’d let his caramel-colored mop of hair grow out some, the curls looser than Sasha’s tight corkscrews but still neatly combed, and he’d gained a few new freckles, probably from actually being able to spend more time outside and out of the Archives. His lips were badly chapped, telling Tim he’d been licking and biting them, a sure sign of stress, and his arms showed signs that he’d been compulsively plucking hairs and then picking at the spots left behind. Probably the most surprising thing about him was that he was wearing, not just short sleeves—it was warm for early September—but an actual t-shirt. It was plain, granted, a simple olive green tee with a slightly threadbare pocket, but still way closer to dressed down than Martin ever got. Either he was finally relaxing enough to let himself be more casual, or he’d just stopped caring.

“Happy belated, by the way,” he added. “I know I told you over text, but I wanted to tell you in person.”

“Thanks, Tim.” Martin’s smile softened a little. “You want some tea? I was just going to make a cup.”

“I’ll never say no to your tea.”

“Good. I’m glad.” Martin’s eyes flickered briefly over to the door of the Archivist’s office. Under his breath, he added, “At least someone—”

As if on cue, the Archivist’s door opened, and there stood Jon. “Tim. You’re back.”

“Morning, boss,” Tim said. He managed to keep the anger and disgust out of his voice, but he couldn’t quite force cheer, and it came out rather flat.

“Come into my office.” Jon turned and went back into the office without another word, much less a please. Tim swallowed down his annoyance. Gertrude hadn’t always said please or thank you either, but she’d earned that. Jon hadn’t.

He glanced at Martin and Sasha. “Good to know nothing’s changed around here.”

“I’ll go get that tea,” Martin mumbled. He rubbed a hand over his face and slouched off in the direction of the break room.

Sasha watched him go, then shrugged apologetically at Tim. “You know how Martin is. He takes everything so personally.”

Tim decided to ignore that for the moment. Instead, he took a moment to settle his jacket properly around himself before heading into the Archivist’s office.

In contrast to Martin, Sasha, and indeed the Archives as a whole, Jon was an uncontested mess. His silver-streaked hair was growing out, too, but more in an “I can’t be bothered to cut it” way than a deliberate choice, and there was an almost frantic energy to his eyes that Tim didn’t like. His injuries hadn’t healed as well as Tim’s had, either—if the raised, jagged rings dotting his face and hands weren’t enough to give that away, the shiny orthopedic cane hooked over the edge of the desk was a pretty good clue—and the amber vial of prescription strength painkillers spoke of a long, slow road to recovery that was throwing up as many obstacles and detours as possible. He probably shouldn’t have been back at work yet, and despite himself, Tim found himself almost feeling sympathy for him.

Almost.

“Have a seat, Tim.” Jon rummaged through his desk for a moment and came out with the tape recorder, which he placed firmly on the desktop.

Considering how much he’d hated the damn thing prior to Prentiss’s attack, this was either a worrying development or a natural consequence of almost becoming another goddamned mystery. Tim wasn’t prepared to bet which way that would go. He eyed the recorder as he took his seat, but chose not to say anything about it. Yet. “Good to see you, too, Jon. So glad you came through that mess all right.”

“Yes, well, it’s good to see you too,” Jon said. It sounded rather as though he was reading the words off a cue card. He fished out a tape and studied it critically, then nodded and popped it into the recorder before turning it on. “I need your statement about the attack on the Institute.”

“I was with you for most of it,” Tim pointed out.

“I need the parts I wasn’t there for.” Jon looked up at Tim, and for just a moment, his eyes narrowed suspiciously. “Is that going to be a problem?”

It absolutely was not. Tim looked into Jon’s dark eyes and knew he was the stronger of the two of them. Jon was still coming into his abilities, still accepting them, really, and Tim had been trained in keeping things way worse than the feral rat child hissing at him from the other side of the desk. He wasn’t going to get a damned thing out of Tim that Tim wasn’t good and ready to give him.

“Why would it be?” he asked. “Sure, go ahead, boss. I’ll give it to you as best I can. It’s been six weeks, after all.”

Jon pursed his lips briefly. “Right. Just start with the part where you left Document Storage.” He folded his hands on top of the desk. “Statement of Timothy Stoker, regarding the attack on the Institute. Statement given fifth September, 2016. Go.”

There was a little taste of static in the air, not much. Enough to flavor his statement and make sure he recalled everything correctly, Tim supposed, but not enough to force him to spill extra information or say anything he didn’t want to. “There’s not a lot to tell, really. I ran out to get Sasha out of Jane Prentiss’s way, then tried to get her out. A bunch of worms were on one of the shelves and it looked like it was going to collapse, so I yelled for her to get out the door and ran for the office to distract them. A few jumped at me, and when I tried to dodge them, I fell into what I thought was a box of case files but turned out to be full of extinguishers, which are damn hard, by the way. Still, lucky for me. I grabbed a few and sprayed the hell out of them, full on Gas Rambo. But, you know, they just kept on coming, and I was getting pretty fuzzy at this point from breathing carbon dioxide instead of your more traditional oxygen. I managed to shut the door to the office, and then I realized that hole was bigger, I guess because Prentiss came out of it. Thought the air might be clearer down there, so I went in, and I found the tunnels.”

“Did you know they were there?” Jon interrupted.

“No. Never even had an inkling,” Tim said honestly.

“Describe them. For the record.”

“They were…confusing. I have a theory, actually. I think it’s what’s left of the old Millbank Prison. But over the years they’ve probably shifted, so none of it makes any sense anymore, and it’s hard to navigate. Anyway, I wandered around for maybe ten minutes. There weren’t a lot of worms down there—I think they were all in the Archives by then, which was terrifying me a little, so I was mostly trying to find you and Martin to make sure you were okay. I wasn’t worried about Sasha. She got out, you know?” Tim swallowed at the memory. “At one point, I thought I’d found an exit, but it turned out to be a room. Full of worms. Pretty much most of them that weren’t upstairs by then, I thought.”

Jon swallowed hard. “What did you do?”

“What do you think? I pumped about two full extinguishers into the room,” Tim snorted. “Nothing was getting out of there alive. I got the hell out of there, too, and went back to looking for you. The rest you know. I found the weak place in the wall, we went back into the tunnels, we lost track of Martin, you and I found the trapdoor into the Archives, Jane Prentiss tried to eat our faces, and suddenly we were drowning in CO2. That’s the last thing I remember before I woke up.”

Jon pressed his lips together for a moment. “You left without saying anything.”

“Well, yeah. The paramedics said I was good to go,” Tim said with a shrug. “My partner turned up, and they released me into his care.”

“Did you stop to find out how anyone else was?”

“I was high on painkillers and still starved for oxygen, so no. I wasn’t even sure how I was.” A bit of a lie. Tim had wanted to look for the others—Martin, Sasha, even Jon—but Gerry had been worried about him and wanted to get him home, and then there was the fact that the Institute was so heavily quarantined he wouldn’t have been allowed back that way if he’d tried. Maybe he should have tried, maybe it would have made a difference, but then again, maybe not.

Jon gave him a sharp look. “Did you know about Gertrude Robinson?”

Something twisted in Tim’s gut, and he had to swallow back on the sudden surge of anger. It wouldn’t do to tip his hand to Jon too early, not until he was sure he wasn’t the killer, which was by no means certain at this point. With some difficulty, he said, “No. Not until Martin came by to check on me.”

“You worked with her fairly closely,” Jon pressed, still studying him intensely. “Do you have any theories on how it happened? Or why?”

Saying Yes, you would have been an incredibly stupid idea, and Tim’s anger clicked up a notch as he realized Jon was trying to pressure him into giving everything away. Two can play at that game. “As to why? She probably had something somebody wanted, and they killed her to get it, or to protect it. As for the how, she was too tough to die except by extreme force and sheer dumb luck, so I assume whoever shot her was someone who knew they wouldn’t get the drop on her any other way. Too weak, probably.”

His eyes flicked back and forth over Jon’s face, but he showed no signs of cracking. Either he was innocent, or he was a better actor than Tim gave him credit for. “Right…right. Do you have anything else to add?”

“Nope.” Tim drew out the N for a bit and popped the P sharply, making Jon jump.

He recovered quickly, though. “Right. Thank you. End recording.” He snapped off the recorder and sat back with a sigh. “You can go, Tim. Get a stack of files from Martin, or take some off the shelf if you’d prefer. We’re never going to get this place organized at this rate.”

At least he’d said thank you, Tim thought as he got to his feet and headed to the office door without a word. He opened it to find Martin stood there awkwardly, a cup of tea in each hand. “Oh! Tim, I—sorry, I didn’t realize you were done. Here, I’ve got your tea.” He offered Tim the mug in his right hand.

“Thanks, Marto.” Tim gave him a smile and accepted the mug, then stood aside so he could come in and give the other one to Jon.

“Thank you, Martin,” Jon said, a bit curtly. Martin’s face flushed, and he backed out of the office with Tim.

Tim waited until the door shut behind him before he asked, “Has he been like that since he got back?”

“Yeah, pretty much,” Martin admitted. “I think he should have stayed away longer, honestly, but he gets grumpy any time I try to bring it up, so I just kind of gave up. Maybe you can help me talk him into taking some extra time off. He needs it.”

“Maybe,” Tim agreed. Privately he doubted it. If Jon was innocent, he’d want to be back to keep boredom from setting in…and if he was guilty, he’d want to be back to keep the others from getting suspicious. It was a lose-lose situation for the rest of them. Or at least specifically for Tim.

And the worst of it was, he was even less certain what the truth was than he had been before.

He forced a smile and nudged Martin gently. “Here, show me what you’ve been up to while I’ve been gone so I don’t undo all the hard work you did. This place looks great. I bet that’s mostly due to you.”

Martin demurred, but he seemed pleased with the compliment. Tim would take that as a win.

It was probably the only win he was going to get for a good long while.

LOR Samples for Ireland Universities: Your Guide to Crafting the Perfect Letter of Recommendation

LOR Samples: Key to Securing Admission to Irish Universities

When it comes to applying for higher education in Ireland, LOR samples (Letter of Recommendation) play a vital role in securing admission to top universities. A well-written LOR can significantly enhance your application, providing insight into your academic abilities, personal traits, and overall readiness to excel in your chosen field of study. At "Study in Ireland," we understand the critical nature of an LOR and offer valuable resources to guide students in crafting impactful letters of recommendation.

What is an LOR?

The LOR full form, Letter of Recommendation, is an essential document required by most Irish universities. It is typically written by a professor, mentor, or employer who can vouch for your skills and qualifications. A strong LOR demonstrates your academic or professional capabilities, your potential for success in graduate studies, and your ability to thrive in the university’s academic environment.

As Ireland continues to attract students from all over the world, particularly from India, the importance of submitting a well-structured LOR is undeniable. Many students, however, struggle with understanding how to create an effective LOR that stands out. This is where the LOR samples available on our "Study in Ireland" website come in handy.

Understanding the Structure of LOR Samples

For students who are unfamiliar with the format and style of a recommendation letter, exploring different LOR samples on our site can help. These samples are designed to meet the specific requirements of Irish universities and can serve as excellent templates for crafting a personalized LOR.

At "Study in Ireland," we provide comprehensive guidelines and LOR templates based on real-world examples. These examples are especially helpful for those applying for postgraduate programs where competition is high, and having a polished LOR can make a huge difference.

Some key sections to focus on in an LOR are:

Introduction: This section typically includes the recommender's relationship with the student, how long they have known them, and in what capacity (academic or professional).

Academic/Professional Performance: This part focuses on the student's achievements, highlighting specific instances where they demonstrated excellence in their field of study or work.

Personal Qualities: Apart from academic skills, universities in Ireland also value personal attributes such as leadership, teamwork, and communication. It’s crucial to reflect these traits in the LOR.

Conclusion: A strong closing statement that reaffirms the recommender’s confidence in the student's potential is essential.

Each of the LOR samples on our website is crafted with these elements in mind, ensuring that students can follow a clear and effective structure.

Tailoring Your LOR to Irish Universities

One common mistake students make is using the same LOR sample for different universities. Irish universities expect students to submit letters of recommendation that are tailored to their specific program requirements. The LOR must reflect not just the student's general abilities but also their compatibility with the particular course or university they are applying to.

At "Study in Ireland," we emphasize the importance of customizing each LOR to the respective institution. The samples provided on our website offer flexibility, allowing students to adapt the content to suit different university requirements in Ireland. Whether applying to Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin, or any other prestigious Irish university, a well-tailored LOR increases your chances of standing out.

Tips for Writing a Strong LOR

The LOR samples available on our website also come with practical tips and advice to ensure your recommendation letter shines. Here are a few essential pointers:

Choose the Right Recommender: Select someone who knows you well and can speak to your strengths in detail. A professor, project supervisor, or manager who can provide specific examples will add more credibility to your LOR.

Highlight Relevant Skills: The skills highlighted in your LOR should match the program requirements. If you’re applying for a course in data science, for example, make sure your LOR highlights your analytical skills, programming experience, and research potential.

Avoid Generalizations: Generic phrases like "hard-working" or "intelligent" won’t make a strong impression. Encourage your recommender to provide concrete examples, such as a project where you took the lead, or a time when your critical thinking helped solve a problem.

Stick to a Professional Tone: Irish universities appreciate clarity and professionalism in LORs. Keep the language formal but not too rigid. The LOR samples on our site maintain the right balance between a personal and formal tone.

Adhere to Formatting Guidelines: Each university might have its own requirements regarding the length, font size, and format of the LOR. Be sure to check the guidelines provided by your chosen university and adjust your LOR accordingly.

LOR Samples for Different Programs

At "Study in Ireland," we cater to a wide range of academic fields. The LOR samples available on our website are tailored to various programs, including engineering, medicine, business, and humanities. Each sample is designed to address the specific attributes that universities look for in these respective fields.

For example, an LOR for a business program might focus more on leadership, teamwork, and decision-making abilities, while an LOR for an engineering course would highlight technical skills, problem-solving capabilities, and innovative thinking. These distinctions are critical for presenting a compelling case to the admission committee.

How LOR Samples Can Help You Avoid Common Pitfalls

Submitting a substandard LOR can severely hurt your chances of securing admission to an Irish university. Many students make mistakes such as using overly generic language, submitting outdated information, or failing to emphasize key attributes. By referring to the LOR samples on our "Study in Ireland" website, students can avoid these common pitfalls.

The samples provide a clear and concise format that ensures the letter is both professional and personalized. They also help students maintain the right length (typically 1-2 pages), which is crucial since a recommendation letter that is too long or too short can lose its impact.

Final Thoughts on LOR Samples and the Application Process

When applying to universities in Ireland, your LOR is a vital part of your application. It complements your academic records and test scores by providing a third-party endorsement of your abilities. Therefore, using a well-crafted LOR sample from "Study in Ireland" can significantly boost your chances of success.

With our expert resources, guidance, and tailored LOR samples, we ensure that your application stands out among the competition. By following the structure and tips outlined in our examples, you can create a strong, personalized LOR that reflects your unique strengths and qualifications.
