Right, I have a newbie which means it's (sadly gifless) infopost time!

How do I begin to explain Face Loran?

Hey, Hannibal's person suit is pretty darn nice, thanks! And the puns are AWESOME!

*grumble*It's not his fault it rhymes.*/grumble*

[gavegoodface]

Did Face say it was a badly tailored person-suit?

He's just not saying it from over here. Where it's safe, and there are no puns which he did not make.

[never_dull]

Well, that's okay, then. Just so long as he notices the very good tailoring. Hannibal's spent a lot of time and effort on that suit. *brushes shoulders off*

[never_dull]

Slightly more seriously, what sorts of things were you thinking he'd notice? The person suit is mostly just the fact that every effing move is calculated (albeit very quickly) to hell and gone. Would/will Face be able to tell it's partly "how would a normal person act" and partly "what benefits me most here", etc., or just know "he's really calculating and possibly skeevy", or something in between?

[gavegoodface]

Probably somewhere inbetween? Like in the books, Face figures out that one of his squadmates is Not What She Seems because he notices over time that there's a discrepancy her conscious and her unconscious/relaxed body language that doesn't really make sense (and then follows it up through other channels because he only acts like an idiot), but at the same time he picked up on the person-suitedness (his exact words were “Something like being stroked by a poisonous reptile wearing a human suit, only not quite so comforting.”) of someone he met when he was still young enough that being sat in their lap was an appropriate thing.

So for Hannibal it'd likely be a combination of picking up on Hannibal calculating everything (even the stuff normal people don't need to think about) and semi/sub-consciously realising he moves like a predator (because mmm...Mads Mikkelsen's physicality), but the overall effect would be less "Doctor Lecter is clearly eating people, let me audition for the Chilton/Graham production 'I Told You So'", and more "

Cool beans! (Also I need to read these books. I only got as far as the first couple X-Wing ones.)

the Chilton/Graham production 'I Told You So'"

I'd watch that show!

mmm...Mads Mikkelsen's physicality

...I'm sorry, what was the question?

[gavegoodface]

(I can hook you up there if you want)

Three words, 'musical episode, pls'.

[never_dull]

(oo, yes, please!)

I would definitely watch that show!

...so long as Hugh sings and Mads sticks to dancing, from what I've heard. LOL
