"He was the Emcee at a club where I used to sing. guess he sort of enchanted me. He was heavy into everything- drugs, sex, androgyny, fascism."
*She shook her head*
"I was an idiot, but I fell for him. God knows why. He was the first man I ever slept with. I never expected him to be true to me, but-"
*She paused*
"One night, I found this boy- only about fifteen or so. Lying the way he was backstage, it was obvious what had happened. I got him to the hospital, and when I went back, I had to ask him about it."
*She looked off into the distance*
"He was crying, calling himself a monster. He said the drugs had made him do it, that he was addicted and needed me to help him."
*She laughed bitterly*
"And I stayed."

*Hannibal paused and met her gaze.*
"And what do you think this relationship says about you? You're need to lose yourself in something dark?"

"That, or that my typist is a sadistic bitch. Maybe. The little bourgoius girl wants to lead the bohemian life by associating with those who take advantage of her. Either that or I was just stupid."
*She rubbed her arm*
"I guess I thought I was in love."

*Hannibal arched his brow coolly.*
"And how would you define that? Being in love? Now that you have some basis of comparison."

NEW DAY
*Crane happened to be walking down the halls of the psychiatric wing, in an even worse mood than usual*

*Hannibal happened to round the corner at the same moment that Crane was passing his office. His keys in hand, he gave a polite nod of his head as he continued towards his door after a brief pause.*
"Good afternoon, Doctor."

*Crane turned and looked at him for half a moment before recognizing him*
"You couldn't change your eyes, could you?"

*Hannibal arched his brow, unwilling to submit so easily, even if Crane was terribly clever.*
"Doctor? Would you care to come in and clarify what you mean to suggest?"
*He opened the door and gestured that Crane might enter first.*

*Crane shrugged*
"Certainly. Especially as several nurses have seen me walk by here, and would wonder if I didn't appear for a meeting."

*Hannibal offered the faintest smile.*
"Why, Doctor...what do you think I am going to do to you?"
*He glanced into the empty room.*
"I merely suggest a pleasant discussion between colleagues."

*There was something eerie about that smile. Hannibal shook his head slightly and shut the door behind Crane, gesturing to the chair in front of his desk.*
"Would you care for something to drink?"

"I hesitate to think what it came from."
*He laughed*
"Just a bit of ill-advised humor on my part. Thank you, I would like a drink."

*Hannibal decided to forgo the water pitcher and opened his cabinet to remove a carafe of cognac and two glasses. He poured the drinks and offered a glass to Crane.*
"Forgive my observation, but you seem to be having a hard time of things, Doctor. Is everything all right?"

*Crane took the glass and considered things*
"I've been better. But, that's life."
He looked up.
"And you? You must have friends in rather high places, it seems."
