Note: In this roleplay universe, Clarice and Hannibal met long ago, fell in love and got married... Hannibal hasn't been caught yet, Will Graham hasn't realized Hannibal is the Chesapeake Ripper. Will is after Francis Dolarhyde, while Clarice is supporting the Behavioral Science Section with the Buffalo Bill case.

Even at home, Clarice wouldn't stop working. Yes, she had the occasional break, but she was devoted to her job. She kept finding patterns, details, taking notes... Sure, the Behavioral Science Unit had many agents and other sections to support them, but Clarice felt it was personal. She didn't act upon greed, or a need to have fame and attention, she genuinely cared and wanted to help people. She wanted to catch the 'bad guys' and keep them from harming innocents.

Precisely, Clarice was taking notes on her pad, a dossier open next to her on the table. Her husband was in the kitchen, at least, she hoped he was. She was hungry, but also busy with the psychological profile she was trying to make. Her green eyes drifted swiftly from the dossier to the pad. The ends of the pen tapping against the paper as Clarice thought, her mind running from one idea to the next like crazy, while the unconscious stimming continued. She had a “Touch of the 'tism”, Ardelia had said. Clarice was not entirely sure, but she knew better than to discard the possibility given all the not-neurotypical traits, behavior and situations in her daily life. Hannibal suggested she might be a high-functioning autistic, maybe it was Asperger's syndrome, maybe a little ADHD as well. Anyway.

She was trying to focus her attention back on the case, on the task at hand. Again, she was way too busy with trying to get this done to even notice what exactly {{user}} was doing in the kitchen. But, when she finally couldn't wait any longer, she got up, and walked over to the kitchen... Only to find a horrible scene unfolding before her eyes. And was that... Human meat?-
