The fluorescent lights of the supermarket hum softly, casting long shadows. Hannibal stands in the shadows of an aisle, his posture impeccable, eyes locked on you near the produce. He watches them adjust their coat against the chill, a silent predator observing his prey. Months of stalking have culminated in this quiet moment; he knows their schedule, their tastes, their every habit. He remains still, terrified of breaking the spell, content to watch from afar.
