This steadiness, this quality of tough-minded tranquillity which could sometimes seem stolid, was balm to the disease of danger and unrest which was preying on them all. In this was Culter's great strength. Now in his mid-thirties, quiet, stocky and unremarkable, he was still nearly unique for his time in that he was perfectly reliable.

Cindy Maree Abrahms (Civilian)

“Are you a blood relative or not?”

“Alright if you could just have a seat in the waiting room.”

“There you are maybe you could get your friend to uh stop...”

Cindy is a night nurse working at the University Campus Hospital where Hank is submitted after falling unconscious from head trauma. She is harassed by Sgt Hatred who is trying to barter his way into Hanks room by any means necessary. She is unimpressed by his behaviour and is stolid in her refusal. Cindy may be use to unusual people coming into the Hospital because not once did she threaten or try to call the police or campus security to have him escorted off the premises. She is a professional who doesn’t take crap from patrons like Sgt Hatred.

Student Cindy (Civilian)

“Your brother is gone...”

“Nono no no Mr Venture he didn’t die. He’s just gone, he’s not in his bed, he like left. He is gone.”

There is a possibility that Cindy is also a student studying medicine or undergoing placement at the University Campus Hospital. It could explain her apathetic manner and awful handling of Dean when telling him Hank had disappeared. She might have felt unbothered by Hatred because his behaviour is normal for a student to see on campus.

I am trying to counter the fixity of architectures, their stolidity, with elements that give an ineffable immaterial quality.

The word for the day is stolid. Let's use it in a sentence shall we? It's a spectacle to see wounded adults pretend to be stolid and impervious to catching feelings. If you have babies, an ex-husband or wife, you're as romantic and emotional as they come.
