are you perhaps comfortable speaking more on winnie and the drs personalities? their relationship to each other?

forgive the quality im inebriated and tired but ummmm well heres some shit abt their dynamic.

he starts seeing her as a patient bc of an incident with a spirit (that she could see all her life but never interact with) where she woke up in an abandoned boat storage warehouse by the harbor surrounded by a dozen dead men cleaved in half. the spirit follows winnie constantly and only seeks dr whittaker out once the spirit halves a man for grabbing winnie on her walk home.

at first dr whittaker is very uninterested in taking on another patient after his previous patient went missing, and assumed to have taken her own life. he struggles a lot with not feeling like a failure and also he goes to this bar/underground fight club type arena where he just gets the shit beat outta him so. he is not very well. but he gives winnie a try bc he feels like he owes it to his last patient who was around her age.

anyways winnie is initially not into it since its a last ditch effort, but also bc hes gonna tell her what every other therapist/psychiatrist/specialist told her before; that these are delusions. but this time she knows theyre not, so shes even more uncouth and cold. dr whittaker doesnt rly react bc he feels the same. he feels like hes going thru the motions and decides to take off his glasses and veer off course and just explain to her this will probably be his last session, so he may as well vent too. winnie and him find common ground and start to kinda bond before she finallytells him whats up. he puts his glasses back on and well. he can see it too.

winnie FREAKS OUT bc she knows the spirit has a particular intolerance for men. she ducks down while dr whittaker kinda just stares. the spirit stalks forward, reaches a hand out, and... fixes his glasses. he can see the spirit, and the spirit trusts him.

thus begins the mystery :J.
