Like a spirit in the night
WHO: SHADE and HANNIBAL
WHERE: Shade's mansion
WHEN: Uhhhh a week or so ago??
WARNINGS: Hannibal. Just Hannibal.
SUMMARY: Cooking bros being cooking bros
FORMAT: Quick!
[ Shade had invited Hannibal over to the mansion because he often seemed like the best sort of company Shade could ask for. Hannibal was posh, polished, and made a fantastic conversation partner. The worst part was that he was having trouble remaining human in the City, the same way he'd fallen further and further from it even in his own home, before he'd become even more invested in Opal's well-being. The issue was, he didn't think he would find the same thing happening to the City. It just didn't have the same...well, anything that Opal did.
Sitting in a seat in his parlor, he shfted, pulling a teacup from the sidetable, giving Hannibal a wan smile. Conversation was light, easy, but he found tthat the man was likely suffering from a similar sort of homesickness that Shade was. Having things be not the same as they had been for Shade for quite some time was difficult to handle. He suspected that Hannibal was the same way, used to his luxuries, and annoyed and frustrated that he didn't have what he wanted -- his every fancy not met.
He was used to that, being able to do what he wanted, but here it almost wasn't worth it. ]
Tell me, Hannibal, what have you found enjoyable thus far in the City?

I have seen many die, and then return, and then some who have never come back after passing, and some who disappear at some time later. Some who die come back much later, or so I am told. I would suspect that if one does not return, they would find themselves back where they come from.
Yet, I'm not quite willing to chance that, as I'm sure you can understand. There is tempting fate, and then there is... [ He waved a hand, gesturing. ] Being rather stupid, don't you agree?
