The village in the park, Thursday evening

[kintsukorosu]

Hannibal had come back here in the early hours of the morning, more to reassure those here that he was still safe and to stay involved in what was going on than out of any real desire to socialize.

The oddities of the day before seemed to have settled back into the usual dullness of day-to-day life, and Hannibal was keeping an eye out for any new people, but other than that, it was business as usual.

Maybe he could get a bit more volume out of their water filtration system today. It was a hobby.

Hannibal just gave her a grim smile. "I don't think I have to warn you to stay away from her." Everybody knew to stay away from the school. It was the other 'her' Hannibal meant.

"One day one of you will kill the other. Or you both will. No matter what happens, you'll hate it."

There was that familiar twist in her heart. "I owe her peace," Raven said quietly. "I cannot rest until I grant her that."

If she died doing so, well, she was resigned to that.

"And that's why you'll get killed one day," Hannibal said. "You have power, but you have no sense."

"And would you do nothing if Jonothon were truly hollow?" Raven snapped. "One might say you have no sense as well. You put yourself in danger every day, so do not lecture me on sense."

"If Jono were truly hollow, I wouldn't be visiting," Hannibal snapped back. If Jono ever went truly hollow, Hannibal was lost as well. He refused to think of that. "I'm in less danger with him than anywhere else."

He tightened the pipe back to where it had been and gave up. "Do what you like; you will anyway." He picked up his things and stalked off to his hut.
