Summary
“I used to be engaged,” Amanda starts.
“Huh.” Angela isn't all that eloquent, but she looks up at Amanda, letting her know she's listening.
“It's going to be two years since I called it off in a week.” Amanda finishes her wine, too, setting both their glasses down before she continues, “He was… honestly, he was perfect at first. I kept thinking I didn't deserve him. So loving, he worshiped the ground I walked on.”
“At first,” Angela repeats, her hand soothing where it's been resting over Amanda's back.
“They’re always charming at first.” Amanda nods, agreeing.
Or,
Amanda works through her past, Angela works through her present. It would just be a lot easier if Angela let them work together.

Summary
There’s fifteen seconds between falling and breaking; the rising of the tide; an opening mouth; a clock ticking backwards.
Porcelain waves shatter against black rock. The water yields to violence, then reshapes itself.
There’s fifteen seconds, and in that time, as he is sheltered by the man he loves, Hannibal welds himself together again, memory by memory, piece by piece, body baptised by blood, moon and sea.
The rooms of his memory palace shatter until every door swings open, revealing the mutilation he carries inside. Ugly. Wretched. Monstrous.
There’s fifteen seconds, and this is it.
//
Or, in the moments before the fall, Hannibal reflects on how he got here, and all the ways Will has ruined him.
