deck | monday | early evening | june 15

With it being warm (but not too hot) and lacking rain for the moment, Hannibal decided to take up some space on the deck this evening. He was mentally tired, confused, moody and just grateful for some fresh air and cooler weather. Hannibal had his feet propped up on one chair and his eyes closed, hat pulled low over his eyes while he relaxed.

He thought about building a fire or something but decided he was too lazy for that. He'd just sit here and enjoy the setting sun and darkening sky.

"She's my fake little sibling," Hannibal said. "So, really can't stay away from her."

Edward gasped. Loudly. "You kissed your sister?!"

"Fake sister, FAKE SISTER," Hannibal said quickly. "Not blood related!"

"Still, man! A sister is a sister!" He made a face. "There is something wrong with that, you understand?"

"Jesus, Edward, I don't need a fricking lecture," he said and rubbed his temple. "Okay, just don't."

Fine. He was quiet a moment, watching his friend. "I understand her attraction, but I would be tempted to... to..." what would he do? "I would politely adopt her out."

"I'm not gonna shuck her aside because of a mistake," Hannibal said. "That's not fair to her."

Edward just looked at him for that one. Defending a girl that kissed you and ignoring your girlfriend because of the kiss - well, seemed like there was more to that kiss than Hannibal was letting on.

He shouldn't say anything here, should he?

Hannibal just looked right back, waiting for whatever Eddie was going to try and throw at him.

He shrugged. "It seems as though you are mad at yourself because you enjoyed the kiss."

"No, I'm mad at myself for other reasons that I'm not sharing right now," Hannibal said. "What happened happened and the whole situation right now just stinks."
