To see an opera

(Up in her room, Rae gets ready.)


When Sunshine comes down the stairs, today, she may not look wholly like herself. The baker is usually seen in the bar wearing bright t-shirts or sweaters, with colorful jeans and sneakers, her hair up in a ponytail or held back by a likewise colorful kerchief. One colorfully casual customer.

Today her hair is down, tumbling about her scarred shoulders in loose waves of red, and what she wears is not her normal style at all.

She takes care with her steps, and not just because of the silver heels that grace her feet. As she moves down the stairs, Rae consciously straightens her spine against the fluttery nervous feeling in her stomach, and hopes it will soon pass.

This is going to be an enjoyable outing. Rae refuses to let her feelings of self-consciousness mar it.



(ooc: Sunshine will likely be out of the bar for a while after this, so any and all threads are welcome, but will be millitimed to before her thread with Hannibal Lecter.)

"It is amazing," Dr. Lecter says. "It surpassed my expectation, and is much better on you than it even was on the picture I saw."

"The people at the opera will be be suitably impressed with you," Hannibal says.

"With me beside you, I very much hope none of them will dare to be that rude," Dr. Lecter says, smiling.

"You're an alligator wrestler up from Florida, for a little vacation in the civilisation," Dr. Lecter suggests, smirking.

"Either one should shut them up pretty quickly," Dr. Lecter smirks.

"We must laugh in secret afterwards, if we have to," Dr. Lecter smirks.

"It would be so rude, they wouldn't do that in the context," Dr. Lecter says. "Not with me there, especially. They all secretly hope to be invited again, after all."

"Shall we?" Hannibal says, offering his arm.
cook_the_rude: (Best office ever)

Dr. Lecter opens his door. Beyond it, there's a waiting room with nice chairs, and old prints on the wall. He closes the door, then opens it again, and instead of the bar, there's a large library or office, with book cases by the walls and on a mezzanine that can be reached by a ladder. The large open space in the middle is dominated by a couch, and two grey leather chairs. Two long windows are shaded by red-and-pale block-striped curtains. Between them is a solid old bonsai tree.

It is large, and looks very much lived in, especially as the late Victorian room with its dramatic greys and reds is contrasted by mid-century modern furniture that looks oddly lived-in and comfortable, despite the abstractions of its design.

"Yes, this is where I work," Dr. Lecter says.

He makes a sparse gesture towards the chairs and the couch. "That is where I talk to my patients. Do take your time to look around if you'd like. Shall I get us some wine?"

"I can imagine you've made sure to never see the inside of one, with the secrets you have to keep," Dr. Lecter says. "A white wine, I'd say?"
cook_the_rude: (Enjoy your dinner)

[personal profile] cook_the_rude 2014-04-03 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Dr. Lecter doesn't take long; he just walks through a door in the back of his office and returns, some minutes later, with two glasses of white wine.

"A simple domestic Chardonnay from Napa Valley," he says. "Crisp and deep, earnest and without frills. I find it goes well with books and music."

He offers her one.
