The other I-Day supplicants: Kent Blott, the mosquito senior, the Doucette mole; delegating to Mario

texture · 8 Nov YDAU

• When: 8 Nov YDAU, same storm-night session
• What: A stream of E.T.A.s dicky the lock and confer one by one: a breastless senior tormented by a mosquito-whine only she hears, and only at lunch with her fiancé ("Sometimes suffering's point is almost crying out... to be heard"); ten-year-old Seventh-Day-Adventist Kent Blott, pre-emptively worried about future masturbation-fantasies — Lyle tells him "not to let the weight he would pull to himself exceed his own personal weight"; and 16-B's Anton Doucette, whose self-consciousness about the mole on his lip has him wanting to play with a hand over his face — Lyle reads his chest-pounding as "intense unconscious self-hatred" and sends him back "with directions to come on back with Mario." "Mario gets a fair number of aesthetic-self-consciousness referrals from Lyle... No type or rank of guru is above delegating."
