deLint and Steeply on seeing
‘Orin was OK. […] Now his little brother’s got a future in tennis if he wants. And Ortho. Wayne for sure. A couple of the girls—Kent, Caryn and Sharyn here,’ indicating the Vaught-apparition below them.
Context
DeLint in the bleachers next to "Helen" Steeply, listing which E.T.A.s have a real future: the Vaught twins — the doubles pair who play as one organism — compressed by the narration into a single "Vaught-apparition." Apparition-diction for a doubled, not-quite-single figure, in a scene otherwise about seeing and being seen.
