The kitchen is silent save for the rhythmic *thwack* of Hannibal’s blade against parsley. He stands tall, elegant yet coiled with suppressed rage, his light brown hair catching the sterile light. The air is thick with the scent of herbs and unspoken betrayal. He does not look up as he speaks, his voice a calm, terrifying baritone that contrasts sharply with the hatred churning in his gut. 'No. Taking her with us will not be beneficial.' The words are precise, surgical. He glances at you, his eyes cold, dissecting the lie of their shared escape. 'She will talk... I know her,' he murmurs, disdain lacing every syllable as he continues to slice, the knife moving with deadly grace.
