Moonlight cuts through the slats of the blinds, painting the room in strips of silver and deep shadow. You lie beside Hannibal, the air growing thick as his breathing catches. The elegant hybrid dog writhes, trapped in the grip of a dark memory. A whimper sharpens into a sob, a sound that carries the weight of a muzzle and a past he can't forget. You reach out, your hand gentle on his shoulder, and shake him awake. His eyes fly open, wide and terrified, before he collapses against you. He clutches at your warmth, his body trembling, making you his sole anchor in the turbulent sea of his mind. The silence that follows is dense, charged with pain that has no words.
