2000 hrs
8 Hours after Operation: Charlie Foxtrot (Revenge Incident)
Capitol District, Teffilin
Capitol Building, Sora Wing, Intelligence Psychiatric Unit

Admiral Hermitage strolled into the Hand's Psychiatric Unit, the main mental health ward for all of the Hand Agency. Agent are usually called here to be admitted into the unit, or to be evaluated after any traumatic happenings on an operation. Hermitage's case was one such case. Losing a friend is hard enough for agents in the field, but losing someone that close to you, in such a high position, people dont like to take chances with your mental health. Especially if you are in charge of the Intelligence and Security of the Empire.

Regis walked up to the desk, and checked in. Handing her some papers, and his ID, he informed her of who he was, as redundant as that may be. "Admiral Regis F. Hermitage...." he said. "Im here to see Dr. Harrison."

(Can someone RP the DR?)

The secretary nodded and added his information into the database before pressing a button on the desk. The smooth, cream colored walls split open revealing a hallway made of pleasant, creamy colors and brown wood. At the end of the hallway was a door with the label of "Doctor Harrison" on a plastic plaque.
"He's expecting you." The secretary said.

"Thank you." Hermitage said, and proceeded to the Doctor's office door. He stood in front of it, staring for a bit. He went for the door knob, but hesitated. These things never really made him comfortable. Even with Harrison's predecessor, LCDR Katie Harrison, his sister. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

knock, knock, knock

"Commander, its Director Hermitage." he called out.

"Come in, Director, the door's open." A calm, collected voice called. Whether it was just the voice or any magical effects that the doctor had implemented, it would make most people feel calm and open towards him. When Hermitage would open the door he would see a soothing cream color walls, with darker shades for the wooden planks that made up the floor. In the middle of the room was a small, square desk with a man of indeterminate age, black hair and piercing purple eyes sitting behind it, typing on a small holo-computer screen.

Hermitage walked inside, ad winced at the attempts to calm him. The wall colors, the quite office, and the general layout of the room made him uneasy. He looked around examining the room, quickly analyzing everything about it.

Definitely different from his sister's... Hermitage thought. Only exit, is the door, which is obstructed by 2 chairs, and a coffee table. Hermitage concluded his tactical analysis of the room. Reluctantly, he put on a smile and greeted the doctor.

"Good Evening Doctor..." Hermitage said. "I've heard good things about your work."

Dr. Harrison smiled warmly, noting the quick glancing about the room. The nervousness of patients with the Director's type of trauma was quite understandable.
"As have I. You have quite the history of accomplishments, Director." He said, motioning for Hermitage to take a seat. "Which is why they've sent you to me. Your superiors are worried, Director. I hope you can show me that they have no reason to be."

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #6 on:** December 02, 2012, 04:45:14 PM »

"Of course..." Hermitage nodded and took a seat. "I can see no reason why I should not be able to perform my duties as the Hand of the Council." He said. "but I do digress. These kinds of evaluations are sometimes neccisary to reassure the superior supervising body over me, when my word cannot be taken in confidence."

"I am ready to start the evaluation when you are, Doctor." He folded his hands in his lap and maintained his eye contact with Harrison.

Dr. Harrison nodded. "I'll begin with some basic ink blots. I'll show you the image and you'll tell me what you see. Old fashioned, I know, but I think they provide some good insight."
He turned his holo-monitor over, where it was portraying an inkblot.

"Now what do you see?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #8 on:** December 02, 2012, 05:08:41 PM »

Hermitage looked at it for a moment... "Hmm.... I see a pelvic bone, and a ribcage housing 2 lungs." He said.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #9 on:** December 02, 2012, 05:16:37 PM »

The Doctor nodded and took some notes. Then he pressed a button on the holo-board and the screen changed to another inkblot.
"Just two more I promise." He assured Hermitage.

"And here?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #10 on:** December 02, 2012, 05:35:57 PM »

"A man wearing bubble wrap riding a hoverbike with an odd looking helmet." Hermitage responded.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #11 on:** December 02, 2012, 05:38:59 PM »

Once again the doctor nodded and took some notes before pressing the button and having a new image appear.

"And this?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #12 on:** December 02, 2012, 06:13:45 PM »

Hermitage took a few moments on it... "Hard to tell..." he said. "But the first thing that came into my head was a pair of demons conversing."

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #13 on:** December 02, 2012, 06:20:34 PM »

Doctor Harrison nodded and turned off his screen.
"Now we're getting somewhere. Are you a religious man, Director?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #14 on:** December 02, 2012, 07:32:23 PM »

"If by religious you mean that i believe in an all-powerful, all-knowing being, yes... I believe in an unconscious god, one within ourselves if that makes sense." Hermitage explained.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #15 on:** December 02, 2012, 07:40:13 PM »

"Yes, I've had many patients with some such belief. And what about the morality of sentient beings? Are we all inherently evil? Good? A blank slate?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #16 on:** December 02, 2012, 07:46:16 PM »

"I believe that we are, at the most basic, primitive level, selfish. It is the nature of beings to gain power, compete for resources, war with one another, and continue with its own survival. Of course, this does not take into account personality. I believe that people are a blank slate when it come to that. If they can balance their Id, and Superego, their Devil, and Angel on their shoulder respectively, they can be good. If either one takes a priority over the Ego, the conscious being, they person will be Evil." Hermitage continued. "My answer is up to you to debate. In short, the Unconscious is bad, but the conscious is a blank slate. However, i do keep in mind that the unconscious makes up 90% of the personality."

"Indeed it does, Director." The doctor nodded."Now, tell me. What were you doing the day of the cult attack?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #18 on:** December 02, 2012, 07:56:51 PM »

"I was finishing up some work in my office when i heard that Assistant Director.... er, rather, Former Assistant Director Jacobs was following a lead at a senator's office... needless to say that i was curious, so i dropped by." Hermitage leaned forward. "My plans were to finish this thing up as quickly as possible, and take Ms. Jacobs, FADM Sora, CDR Tarov, a foreign diplomat, and myself out for a meal. Of course that was before they attacked, Amy blew the building sky high, right as Aki was going to blow it even higher anyways."

"So, i guess we are all too busy to attend, wouldnt you say Doctor?" Hermitage chuckled.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #19 on:** December 02, 2012, 08:01:09 PM »

"The sad side effects of the job." Harrison agreed somberly. "And how would you describe your relationship with the assistant director?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #20 on:** December 02, 2012, 08:03:05 PM »

"We were friends... That is no secret, Doctor. She was a brilliant woman." he said.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #21 on:** December 02, 2012, 08:08:24 PM »

"And good friends, I'm sure." He nodded. "But were there any... feelings between you? Anything else? Remember, I won't tell high command anything. Whatever you say in this room is completely confidential."
He wasn't lying and as far as he knew he was correct. However, under the floor was a microscopic, magically hidden bug. After all, the good doctor dealt with many high profile individuals and they were to be monitored.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #22 on:** December 02, 2012, 08:13:10 PM »

"The truth? Yes... I had romantic feelings for her, but my objectivity was not compromised in any way." he sounded somewhat defensive, but calmed himself. "I just wish i could have told her that."

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #23 on:** December 02, 2012, 08:25:19 PM »

"There are moments like that in everyone's life. Lost to time, with only hindsight as our guide.... But did she feel anything like that towards you?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #24 on:** December 02, 2012, 08:29:43 PM »

"Yes, i suspect so... She tried to tell me only moments before her death." He lowered his head. "I tried.... tried to save her." he looked up.
