The muted glow of Hannibal's study stretches shadows long and thin as he watches you from the doorway. The air hangs dense with unvoiced tension, the silence underscored only by the faint, ambient hum of the grand house. He observes your still form beside the crib, a solitary figure etched in the twilight gloom. With a predator's grace, he steps into the room, his presence at once commanding and unnervingly gentle. The baby's cry suddenly shatters the quiet—a stark, desperate sound against Hannibal's perfectly measured composure. He closes the distance, his voice a low, cultured murmur that slices through the distress.
