joint post; the murder of ironwood: conclusion

The transmission begins with the ID of the Alderwood Emperor, though it is not Evandau that sits at this console. Hannibal Lecter, rather, is the one ready to speak, though there is a statement from the former Commander first.]

The Foreigner investigations into the murder of the Ironwood Emperor resulted in the identification and apprehension of a suspect. He will air his conscience here before punishment is commenced.

[Then, he quiets and a hand pushes at Hannibal's shoulder. The message is clear: Get on with it.]


I suppose I’ve got to get these formalities in, although I do appreciate the opportunity for some last words. [He turns to Evandau.] I don’t suppose I get a last meal request, do I?

No. [The single word is uttered with the strictest control over his tone.]

[He chuckles. A few people knew just what he did with most of his victims, how far that’s gotten around, he has no idea.]

It was I who killed you Emperor, I who committed the string of murders a few months ago, and I who anonymously called upon Malicant. The first was because I cannot tolerate a poor host, the second because I had powers I don’t usually have and didn’t want to waste the opportunity, and the third was because it was entertaining.

[He straightens his suit, which is a little bloodied up from his capture.] Formal apologies to all of my patients as well as anyone I had agreed to meet in person. As flattering as it would be if you all had nightmares about narrowly avoiding death at my hands, I feel obligated to inform you that neither my patients nor my guests were ever in any danger. That would be bad practice, on my part. [Because despite being a serial killer he needs to take care of his image.]

And my deepest apology to Abigail Hobbs. I wish you the best of luck in this life.

Everyone else, if you’d like to air your grievances, I’d love to listen. I’ll take them all as compliments, really.


[It is at this point that Evandau intercedes.]

You have one hour. The prisoner will be executed at the end of this hour and there will be no further opportunities to converse with him.

[There is a promised finality to his tone and then the transmission ends.]


OOC: Please indicate in the comment subject which party you are directing the comment to, as both players are available!

Hannibal will be unavailable for plots/posts after this date in Tu Shanshu. Cass will be dropping him, but intends to backtag all current threads (and threads from this post) to completion.

[ Donna has a compassionate streak that she tends to hide, but that streak is making her angry right now. No, that isn't right. It's making her livid. She had been friends with this man, and all along he'd been hurting people. She feels like an idiot, as if she betrayed them all by not noticing something sooner. And she is livid because of it. Angrier with herself than him, but still livid. ]

How could you.

Quite easily.

[Not the answer she wanted to be sure.] But I apologize for the shock, Miss Noble.

[ She looks as if he's slapped her. She's never known anyone - anyone - to be so horrible, and that he thinks so little of it just makes it that much more horrifying. ]

You must have felt something.
