[ It's okay, Percy, he gets it. You have the real dog, and Hannibal has the dog in human form... The parallel is almost funny, if not for the slight exasperation Hannibal feels at Will interjecting with the topic. First, to the current matter: ]
I agree. I meant it more in the opposite case. The idea that people would pick someone they dislike or even spoke to at all isn't one that we can count on readily. But certainly, I'd hope that people would hesitate to kill someone they like.
[ And after that, he'll consider the past. He looks thoughtful for a moment, since of the many he had seen (and been a part of), it's almost difficult to pick one that stands out as the best example of what they mean but also one where Hannibal can speak in fewer specifics. Eventually, he does choose one of the examples that Will listed. ]
...The mushrooms, then. A group of children found a small "plot" of mushrooms, but the garden was being fed by human bodies. Most of them were dead when the FBI came to investigate. [ He glances to Will briefly here, but there's no pause in his speaking ] One was not. A pharmacist intentionally gave diabetics the wrong medication to induce a coma, kidnapped them, and buried them alive. They were given an IV of a sugar concentration to encourage the growth of the mushrooms, but it seems to have taken quite a while for them to finally die.
[ He nods his head lightly ]
And that is a case that had a very low body count. The "mural" had forty-six confirmed, but there were likely far more that will never be found.
