It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.
... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!
Except there is, perhaps, a few things amiss.
This post functions as the general mingle post for the week. Wanted Posters and other small events will be posted in top levels below. If there's any questions or requests, please send a PM or shoot a PP to robowest.
[ He shakes his head lightly, though it comes with a smile. The smile is fairly fond too, though who it's for isn't very clear. It could be for one of them, considering what he says, but it very well might be both of them. ]
No, you did not. Will is... [ Every time, he's not sure how to explain, so there's a slight pause. ] He is a dear friend of mine. And after knowing him for several years now, I promise you, he is simply abrasive with everyone.
[ Xion doesn't look entirely convinced, but she's willing enough to accept that explanation. ]
Okay. Dr. Lecter, do you still think ... this is a good idea? Should we sneak out and try to put the camera in a jail cell instead? Although... we don't know what we might run into, out there.
[ It's... complicated, to be fair. He'll tell you later. Maybe. It's still complicated. ]
Each idea seems to have its own risks, certainly. I suppose my question would be about the camera itself, in that case. Assuming that we were to store it in a cell, we could lose the chance to see something helpful if something were to occur. But it is only a chance.
[ Unlike me, though, Hannibal is much cooler about the prospect. He does pause briefly to consider it, but look around at everyone else. ]
There's an unknown in putting it there in the first place, but keeping it elsewhere would seem to be safer, at least for now. We know that we would be putting ourselves at risk by holding onto it ourselves. Putting it in another location would be more cautious, so long as keeping the lock is left to a third party, such as the Sheriff.
Oh, that's right.... [ Xion frowns, considering this new path of action. ]
We'd have to find the Sheriff and ask him if we can do all of this, first. Otherwise, the whole idea is kind of pointless. Should we sneak out and try? I wonder if he'll get mad that we're outside after curfew...

But then she mentions Hannibal and he kind of makes a face like he just smelled something rotten. ]
Of course he did.
[ IMMEDIATELY TURNS AND LEAVES I'M SO SORRY BUT LOOK HE HAS SOMEONE TO TALK TO (it's not Hannibal, he is going to find Ezio) ]

[ ... he's gone. What was that all about? Does ... he know Dr. Lecter? ]

But here comes Hannibal, since he had been watching that exchange, naturally. He sighs a bit, but he places a hand on Xion's shoulder lightly. ]
Please excuse Will. He doesn't do well in crowds.
[ Or, like. Talking to people in general, but Hannibal is being nice. ]
no subject
He seemed mad. Maybe... I did this all wrong.
[ She sighs heavily, hugging herself lightly. After a moment, she glances at him again, frowning thoughtfully. ]
You two know each other?

What do you think we should do?
