Hello guys! Welcome to Dr. Hannibal Lecter's office. This is an open RP post for your characters to come in and have a therapy session with him. Just remember, he's not your conventional psychiatrist and will likely have fun at your character's expense and suffering. Expect some manipulation too. I'll try to add some prompts here, but feel free to tag in. XD

[She's not mute. She says a few words here and there, mostly small things, more or less meaningless. It's just easier to keep from betraying herself if she doesn't talk too much, doesn't tell too much. She needs to get out of here before the next moon. So, yes, of course she's nervous.

She turns to face him when he takes a seat at the side of her bed, drawing her knees up and peering at him over the tops of her bony knees.]

You're a different kind of doctor.

[A quiet observation, her voice not timid, but Christina still hasn't quite lost that sense of being just a little unsure of herself. Even if not for his neat suit, he smells different. She looks at him inquisitively with a slight tilt of her head. Christina has never been able to shake that childlike curiosity, always wanting to know why things were, how they worked.

She was going to be a writer some day. She needed to know the boundaries of the universe to write within it.]

[Good, that's makes it easier for Hannibal to evaluate her mental state. He had been mute during his youth for many years, and no one had any idea of the dark feelings hiding beneath his silence.

He nods.] I'm a psychiatrist, my job is to help you cope with the things that ail you here. [He points to his head.] Not all illnesses are of the body.

I will do what's in my hand to aid you. [And he will give the hospital a statement regarding her sanity, but he's not going to tell her that.]
