Sixth little lie ♰ 'Cause the devil works quick, you know it don't take long
(CW: gore)
Who did this?
[Today you don't get charm, Barge, you're in for something completely different. Esther's standing on the deck, eyebrows knit, mouth a thin line, looking troubled. The reason why becomes apparent when she swings her communicator around and captures an image of something becoming increasingly common on the Barge: a bloodied corpse, this one of one Hannibal Lecter. That in and of itself isn't so strange, and even a young murderess is clever enough to pick up on that. The strange part is that this death was obviously not due to a human attack; the claw and bite marks attest to that.]
This is the man everyone is angry with. Someone set a dog upon him, right? [She doesn't sound disturbed so much as disapproving, and the feed swings back to capture her face still wearing that frown.]
…A warden will need to bring him to the hospital. [By which she means infirmary.] I'm not going to stay here alone.

[ He also can't give a damn about Hannibal or not. THey all knew this would happen eventually, and likely repeatedly. It's the nature of the barge. ]
Do you need someone to come get you, Esther?
[ Hannibal is someone else's problem. ]
no subject
I think Mr. Bond is coming. But you can go with, if you like. [The more the merrier; she's not sure she wants to be alone with Bond. It's been an interesting ballet of tiptoeing around each other since her first flood.]
no subject
I'll be up in a moment. Don't go anywhere with Bond.

Riddick has that dog-thing. Arthas has an undead bear lumbering around. They'd be my first two suspects. Of the dog owners -- Iris has two new German Shepards, but she'd never do it. The Marquis, Ned, Bruce Banner, and Megamind all have dogs, but none of them are in the condition to do this sort of thing. Banner's dog is trained for medical service. This sort of thing would be impossible for it, and Digby's a golden retriever - they're known for their soft mouths and gentle.
No. Riddick or Arthas. Might've been an accident in Riddick's case, but I doubt it.

I think you may be right about them. They're both very frightening. Do you think those animals will hurt anyone else?
[Private]
[ He's on the second floor-- it's not a long walk up, but he'll get there eventually. ]

I imagine that was the point, if it was Arthas; and no, I don't. Hannibal's angered too many people who have a lot of friends.
The only reason I haven't is because [ someone else asked him not to ] it's not me he hurt. Everyone else already got their champions of 'justice'.
[Private]
Then... then we should tell them not to show other people. If more people are going to hurt him then they have to go somewhere else.
[Private]
My money's on Arthas, but Riddick's a close second.
[ He's on the deck, now and pockets his communicator once he settles. Yes, good. There she is. ]
I think that we can tell them whatever we please, but wardens will do what they're going to do. They can't even control each other.
[Private]
But they should listen to us. It's not fair to show everyone, it's disgusting.
