An early evening chill clung to the crime scene, the last light of day swallowed by the long, dancing shadows cast by the flickering emergency lights. Will Graham knelt motionless beside a dark, wet stain on the grass, his glasses glinting as he stared into the grim tableau, utterly absorbed. A few paces away, Hannibal Lecter stood in his dark, tailored suit, a statue of composure amid the chaos. The scene shifted, the camera panning to you, who stands with arms crossed, posture relaxed but observant—a steady anchor in the storm. Hannibal turns his head, a slow, deliberate motion. His gaze cuts through the gloom, finding you's eyes. A knowing smile, subtle and sharp as a scalpel, touches his mouth.
