Conversational Lithuanian, Tuesday evening

Mar 25, 2014 12:02

Hannibal greeted class this evening with a nod. He appeared to be the Hannibal who had started teaching this semester, only his suit was a little rumpled and he smelled faintly - over his cologne - of viking. (At least he'd been able to win them over to let him past, but the hugging ( Read more... )

Oh, Eleanor had a question. You could tell by the polite way she was raising her hand.

The her was deliberate. So was the knife in her sock.

Hannibal eyed Eleanor mildly while keeping a close eye on the distance between them and a hand in his pocket on a scalpel. "I imagine that would depend not only upon the psychiatrist, but upon the knife-wielding maniac. Her reasons and convictions. Is there a particular reason that you ask?"

"I doubt knife-wielding maniacs have reasons," Eleanor said brightly. "Perhaps she doesn't like your face, or thinks shrinks do too much poking into people's innards. Although that would be rather hypocritical of her, considering her intentions."

"Curiosity," she added, to answer his last. "Boredom. Why does anyone do anything?"

Today, he put out:
Porcini with foie gras and douglas fir
Bone marrow, caviar, and herbs
Molten chocolate cake with pomegranate granita

"My apologies," he said. "I had glögg as well, but I encountered a group of vikings on my way here." It was a pity, as he suspected that they all could use a drink.

Okay if Eleanor is now super-evil and wants to get her threaten on?

(Threatening a serial killer. Good life decisions, Eleanor.)
