A word is dead when it's been said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.
Who: Hannibal Lecter
avoirfaim & OPEN
Where: The Library
When: backdated to 3/27 during the day
Rating: PG for now.
Summary: Hannibal is in the library looking for a certain book.
The Story:
There is a power in words that Hannibal Lecter respects. Words can move mountains, topple empires, rally a nation and disengage them just as easily. It is through words, after all, that we learn what others have come to before us, where the human desire to discover can be made fruitful. There is a power in words to deceive, but it is the power to unmask that is currently Hannibal's concern. Silence of the Lambs, she said it was called. Perhaps the book might be named something entirely different, but it's a state. If he can find it, if he can see just what is written about him, if it's about him at all and not just some wild coincidence (but that's the thing, isn't it? Here's here, in Wonderland, and when has Hannibal Lecter ever trusted a coincidence?). And so he can be found keeping to himself and combing through the library, flipping through books and putting them back exactly where he found them neatly.
