"SEES LIVES MENACED IN HOSPITAL AND JAIL," Toronto Star. March 27, 1934. Page 1. ---- Improper Installations, Organizer for Steamfitters Declares ---- There was a sharp clash between W. A. Baird (High Park) and John Bruce, organizer for the Steamfitters' Union, before the labor committee of the legislature to-day when a bill sponsored by Hon. J. M. Robb, minister of health and labor, came before the committee. There was a sharp clash between W. A. Baird (High Park) and John Bruce, organizer for the Steamfitters' Union, before the labor committee of the legislature to-day when a bill sponsored by Hon. J. M. Robb, minister of health and labor, came before the committee.

The bill is aimed to license and regulate master and journeymen steamfitters and plumbers in the installation of heating systems.

Mr. Bruce stated that a man at the Home for Incurables, who is an electrician, was installing a system with the aid of a fireman. "The whole thing is criminal and anything is liable to happen in that place," he declared.

"That is a slanderous statement," said Mr. Baird. "The man is a first-class engineer besides being an electrician. I can prove it. I am vice-chairman on the board of the Home for Incurables. This is just a fight between the stationary engineers and steamfitters."

Mr. Bruce said he could prove his charge. Mr. Baird challenged him to do so.

Mr. Bruce also stated that at present at the Toronto jail a system of heating under a 50-pound pressure is being improperly installed. "Anything is liable to happen there. The situation has added danger with the prisoners cooped up in their cells at night," he said.

"Isn't it true that in each case you speak of, Mr. Bruce, there isn't a qualified stationary engineer in charge of the work?" the chairman asked. Mr. Bruce did not answer and the chairman stated the committee was only interested in the principle of the bill and not in a private feud.

It was decided to meet again tomorrow at 10 a.m. to discuss the bill.

This isn't all my job, or even a large part, but I did once spend a week on a roof alone straightening the fins on rooftop condensor coils after a hail storm and it was great. Just me, a tiny screw driver and a radio.

I need a job where I just untangle strings and cords for people for hours every day

Pensions sound so fake as a zillennial. You work for one place for decades (already sounds fake) and then afterwards you leave and they just. keep paying you. the same amount of money. to do nothing. for the rest of your life. if i wasn't already aware that this was something that readily and commonly existed during my grandparent's days then it would sound like some kind of socialist pipe dream

Summary:

In this life, some live with two. Humans in looks, wolves in spirit, amongst them they are known as Wolfskin. In this world, they stay hidden as they expand, multiply and hunt...Baltimore is no exception.

Rana is one and also an FBI agent. When a serial killer leaves them facing a dead end, Jack brings forward Will Graham to help them; without knowing, Will is unique.

She will do anything to keep him safe. A task that will prove hard when a strong, lonely Alpha, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, enters their lives.

Pairing: Mads Mikkelsen Hannibal X Fem! OC Chapter Warnings: None

Previous - Chapter 2: A New Clue Next - Chapter 4: Proper Meeting & A New Body

Chapter 3: Cannibal Serial Killers & Mysterious Psychiatrists

The next day, Rana met Will at the HQ to accompany him to the morgue. Jack was currently at the Academy, talking with the young psychiatrist known as Dr. Bloom.

She was intelligent, young, and had worked with Will for a while. Jack wanted to put Will more out in the field; however, he knew the risks.

He went to the Academy to ask her opinion and her help, in case Will needed it. After his talk with him, it was clear to both that the man had a twisted sense of love for those girls and that he would soon go after the next one.

Will was the only one, who could truly help them and Jack could not dismiss him...not yet.

While he was busy there, Will had been dressed in a medical apron and a plastic visor as he hovered over the body of the girl. Around him, were Jimmy, Beverly and Brian, who were busy inspecting and working on the body; hoping to find more clues.

At one side, leaning against the wall, was Rana. She was there to gather any information the four of them found and then give it to Jack.

At the same time, she wanted to keep an eye on Will, especially with Beverly and her snoopy nose being around.

She never minded the gore, blood or the dead. It would be silly if someone like her had trouble handling it. The opposite, she was always intrigued, and the feeling of blood on her hands did trigger some more primal instincts.

For that reason, she found it wiser to keep her distance, but if she ever had to, she could control her impulses and do her job.

"Tried her skin for prints. Of course, nothing. We did get a hand spread off her neck." Jimmy started, glancing at Rana, who was watching them like a Hawk.

"What about her nails?" she asked, muscled hands folded in front of her as she leaned on the wall, with one leg bent.

"Her fingernails were smudged when we took scrapings. The scrapings were where she cut her palms with them. She never scratched him." Brian added.

"Hmm," Rana exclaimed. "That means he knew how to prevent her from scratching him. He is no certain fool," she mumbled, but the silence in the room made everyone hear her.

"Curly piece of metal is all we got," Beverly added, before sneaking a flirtatious smile towards Will.

Something that did not go unnoticed by Rana. Thankfully, the scientist did not do anything, and Will was not focusing on her at all. Instead, his mind seemed to be not present.

"We should be looking at plumbers, steamfitters, tool workers." He said, glancing at Rana, who wrote it down in her little notebook as he adjusted the visor and forced himself to look in the body bag.

While he was busy thinking, imagining and trying to recreate what had happened to the girl, the other three worked normally.

Rana had noticed him but had not said anything as she studied him. She found it fascinating how his compressed other nature formed in a way that allowed him to think like the predator he is supposed to be.

She hadn't met many of their kind, but she knew each one was unique. Each one grew and developed certain skills that reflected their personality, their character, and their environment.

Will learnt how to empathise with predators, following serial killers and their way of thinking, clearly because he suppressed his true nature.

Rana, on the other hand, always motivated by anger and adrenaline, had developed physically and had acquired skills more used in combat and, as some would suggest, hunting.

Her senses were keen, but she did not have the perception Will had, just like he didn't have her reflexes and strong fight instincts that she possessed.

While she was the only one before she met him, that wasn't always the case. She was raised in an environment with their kind and had learnt valuable information from a young age that she hoped one day to pass on to Will.

However, approaching and explaining was the trickiest part. She did not know how much he knew or if he had unlocked them yet.

"Other injuries were probably but not conclusively post-mortem. She wasn't gored."

"She has lots of piercings that look like they were caused by deer antlers. I didn't say the deer was responsible for putting them there."

The trio kept working and talking while Rana was half paying attention.

However, she focused fully when Will snapped back into reality and added his conclusions: "She was mounted on them, like hooks. She may have been bled."

This made Beverly and Jimmy glance at Will as well, while Brian was distracted by his investigation of the abdominal wound. "Her liver was removed. He took it out and put it back in. See."

This made the female agent lift an eyebrow and approach the table, leaning over to see what he was pointing at. She was not that expert in the body anatomy, but she could faintly see the signs that the organ had been sewed back.

"Why cut out her liver if he was just going to sew it back in again?" Brian asked, confused.

All muscle tone in Will's face went slack as Rana sniffed faintly, bringing her face a little closer to the body. There was something...something that smelt different... it didn't smell like the organs of a corpse would...no...it was something more.

"Something was wrong with the meat." Rana and Will said at the same time, in perfect sync.

This made the trio look at them, confused, but also freaked out that the duo knew it, although each of them had found it out differently.

They exchanged a look, something familiar passing in front of their eyes as their minds suddenly connected. "She has liver cancer."

That's why it smelled differently, Rana thought, but then noticed how Will had paled.

Before she could ask him what was happening, he spoke up, and what he said next made everyone feel a chill going down their spine. "He's eating them"

Rana had called Jack just as Will's latest conclusion came. Jack had a lead for someone who could help with the case and was on his way.

However, he needed to know all the details, so she ended up in his car as he drove them to their next destination.

She was hesitant to leave Will behind but he had reassured her that he would focus on his lectures, now that he got another clue. It would allow him to take a break and allow his mind to focus on something else.

After Rana finished explaining what they found, Jack tensed his jaw and his hands around the car wheel.

"So, this lunatic is now eating them? Is this his sick love that Will talked about?" he asked, unhappy with the news.

Rana shrugged, leaning back on the seat and looking straight ahead of her. "I don't know. They are still working on more clues, but without the other bodies, it's hard to know." There was another silence between them as Jack took a turn and went off the busy highway. "Where exactly are we heading to?"

"Dr Hannibal Lecter. Dr Bloom recommended him. He might be able to help us and Will, in this nutjob case" Jack explained.

The female agent remained quiet, not adding anything more. Somehow, having a psychiatrist look at and inspect Will made her guts twist.

Yet again, Will was sensitive; perhaps someone more experienced could help if something went wrong. She was indecisive but decided not to make any decisions before meeting the man in person.

At last, they arrived at the fancy building where the famous psychologist lived, and Rana could not help but admire the architecture.

Climbing out of the car, she sniffed the air as a certain scent reached her olfactory processing cortex. She closed her eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath. When she opened them again, she felt nothing had taken place.

Jack was clueless about her small reaction, already busy pushing the door open and entering the building. Rana followed behind him, her eyes seeming to be more concentrated than ever.

Unknown to Jack, his protégé started to suspect that this psychiatrist was not at all what everyone else thought.

When they arrived on the right floor, they found his door closed. It was clear that he was having an appointment, so they both waited in suspense and slight uneasiness.

The clock was ticking, and they both wanted nothing more than to catch this madman.

Rana was also uneasy because the scent of another Wolf had reached her senses while also setting one question apart.

Was the client or the good doctor, one of her kind?

Her answer soon came as the door was opened from the inside and a slightly plus size nervous man was about to be escorted out. He was very nervous, the scent of sweat and high adrenaline reaching her nose.

However, Rana knew there and then that the man was not like her. That made her attention focus on the doctor standing by his side. Her pupils dilated ever so slightly at the sight of a man with exotic features and dressed in a wrinkle-less three-piece matching suit.

Jack took the chance to step forward, blocking the way of the other two men. "Doctor Lecter?"

The man noticed him first, but Rana saw evidence that his nostrils moved slightly as he had picked up her scent just as she had picked up his.

However, he did not give anything away. Instead, he focused on Jack. "I hate to be discourteous, but this is a private exit for my patients."

He got his badge out. "I'm Special Agent Jack Crawford and this is Special Agent Rana Stones," he said, motioning for the blond, who had her badge as per usual hanging around her neck. "We are with the F.B.I. May we come in?"

Dr Lecter took a good look at the female agent, but his face had the perfect mask, exposing nothing of his inner thoughts or any of his reactions

"You may wait in the waiting room." He then focused on his patient. "I'll see you next week, Franklyn." Yet, before fully dismissing him, he turned to Jack again. "Unless, of course, this is about him."

Jack corrected him. "Oh, no, this is all about you."

And this is how Rana was once again sitting on the couch next to Jack.

Hannibal had gone inside his office momentarily and said he would call them. This gave her a moment to put on her mask and focus on her training.

Jack, next to her, was as clueless as ever about the secret world existing under his nose.

He picked up a Magazine, out of mere curiosity and to control his temper. He did not like waiting or being dismissed that way.

Usually, when people see their badges, they immediately speak to them, but it was clear that this certain Doctor wanted to make sure that he had the upper hand and was the dominant one in this situation from the very start.

After a few minutes, the door opened and Dr Lecter stepped into the doorway. "Please. Come in."

Jack and Rana stood up, heading for his office.

The female stayed a step behind Jack, and yet, as she passed in front of the good doctor, she felt his sharp gaze on her. She did not turn her head to acknowledge him but simply kept walking with her head held high.

Yet, she did not fail to pick up his unique scent. A mixture of exotic spices and well-aged wine contained in an oak barrel. Each person and wolfskin had their unique scent, which was recognisable and characteristic of them.

Hannibal watched them pass and as Rana passed by him, his senses got overloaded by her strong dominant scent. He blinked and forced a flat smile to cover his reactions, as he processed the scent of whiskey and burning wood with a faint touch of gunpowder.

Once inside the office, the two agents split. Rana took a seat on the couch, right across from Hannibal, while Jack decided to roam around and survey his collection of books and artefacts, while also admiring his art.

"May I ask how this is all about me?" he asked, his eyes going from Rana to Jack.

"You can ask. But I do need to ask you a few questions first. Are you expecting another patient?" Jack started.

"We're all alone," Hannibal informed, being so willing to cooperate and answer the questions.

"No secretary?"

"Was pre-dispositioned to romantic whims. Followed her heart to the United Kingdom. Sad to see her go."

Rana lifted an eyebrow, her back straight and her hands flat on her thighs. Somehow, the story, while sounding believable, also could not be true.

Usually, she would pick up the heartbeat of a normal human and detect when they are lying, but it was different with Hannibal.

For starters, his heart rate was stable but that was something their kind could easily control. A steady heartbeat was crucial cause increased adrenaline and blood was what caused their primary instincts to kick in and make their mind less human and more animalistic.

For that, she focused on anything else about him. It was their common technique with Jack. He asked the questions and tried to see if their suspect would bite while Rana would notice their reactions.

Being a woman, it was not easy for men to take her seriously or consider her a threat.

At first, she was quite reactive and violent to scare them and force them to speak.

However, after she started working with Jack, her teacher realised that she had other gifts she could develop to improve their partnership.

He was not wrong and his ideas worked.

Speaking of Jack, he had focused and was busy studying framed meticulous pencil drawings of Parisian landscapes. "Are these yours, Doctor?"

Hannibal gave a nod, his hand carefully pointing at the drawing of a school. " Among the firsts. My boarding school in Paris when I was a boy."

"Incredible amount of detail."

Not liking how things were, Hannibal stood up and moved to his desk. He picked up a point with a scalpel, blowing the shavings off the tip to reveal its sharpness. "Learned very early a scalpel cuts better points than a pencil sharpener."

He let the pencil down but not the scalpel. He eyed Jack carefully, focusing on the FBI agent's jugular.

However, he made no move as the strong scent of Rana kept reminding him that she was silently watching him. If only he could be alone with Jack, but that could not be the case.

"I understand your drawing got you an internship at Johns Hopkins."

Rana's muscles tensed faintly, and she moved her position on the couch faintly, just as she noticed Hannibal's faint nostril flair and eye dilation.

Yet, his heartbeat remained steady, and he simply exhaled. Others would not notice such small changes, but they were not her.

"I am beginning to suspect you are investigating me, Agent Crawford."

There is suddenly an eerie stillness as if lightning were about to strike. Rana decided to speak, change her position, and sit on the couch's armrest.

"Is there a reason why we should investigate you, Dr Lecter?" she asked, earning a hidden smirk from Jack.

Hannibal's full attention turned to her now, his pupils dilating even more. Her presence alone tested the control of his instincts; it had been years since he had been in the presence of another like him.

And the last one he was with did not have the same aura and vibe Rana did.

He was no fool; he could see the signs, as both of them showed clear, pure dominance with their body language, stable tone of voice, and intense stare.

The tension in the room started to thicken, those two never breaking eye contact.

For a microsecond, both had their irises flash to a bright red, as if triggered by the intense staring and the silent fight for control of the room.

Jack sensed that something was odd, so he moved and sat next to Rana. His attention change caused Hannibal's and Rana's eyes to return to normal.

"You were referred to me by Alana Bloom in the psychology department at Georgetown."

This caught Hannibal's attention, as his demeanour changed again, and he took his seat once again. "Most psychology departments are filled with ham radio enthusiasts and other personality-deficient people. Dr Bloom would be the exception. "

"You mentored her during her residency at John Hopkins, correct?" the female agent asked him.

"I learned as much from her as she learned from me," Lecter said coolly.

"Showed me your paper in The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry. Evolutionary Origins of Social Exclusion." Jack continued.

"And?"

"Very interesting, even to a layman." He continued.

Rana was told about the paper, and Jack sort of summarised it in his way for her.

She could read it if she wanted, but she was not truly interested. Specialisation and science were never her cups of tea.

Instead, she focused more on other subjects like Physical Education. Philosophy, Law and History were the only exceptions, but no other subjects. Perhaps this was also a result of her internal need for justice and her strong instincts, which required more energy and physical results.

"A layman? So many learned fellows going about in the halls of Behavioural Science at the F.B.I. and you consider yourself a layman? What about your partner? Do you consider her a laywoman?" Hannibal said, deciding to try his unique psychoanalyzing skills.

He was curious about this partnership and how much Jack truly knew about Rana and her kind.

It was the first time she had seen a Wolfskin in a position of power, one that required working with and around humans daily for hours on end. It was truly fascinating to him as well, and he was curious to find out more about the unique blond agent sitting across from him.

Jack realised what was going on, slightly, and exchanged a look with Rana before speaking up. "I do when I'm in your company, Doctor. I am, also, not one to speak for my partner. She can answer that if she wishes to" This made the female's lips curve slightly upwards. "I am here for another reason. I'd like you to help me with a psychological profile."

Press: Mr. President, will you be visiting the crash site? (just mere miles from the White House)

Piece of shit excuse for a human and joke of a President: What site, the ocean? Do you want me to go swimming?

tRUMP in the meantime spent the afternoon incorrectly and baselessly blaming DEI for this. This after the FFA said the reason for the crash was because there wasn’t enough Air Traffic Controllers. A week after he put a hiring freeze on Air Traffic Controllers!!

This rotten husk of a human. A soulless piece of lying scum.

I knew how psychotically devoid of empathy he is and how playfully cruel he is, but this kind of shit takes the cake. When will you learn that this person does not give one flying fuck about you or any of us aside from his Oligarchy grifters?

Tell MAGA conservatives who voted for this puke, how would you feel if it was your loved one who died and he was this flippant about it? Would you still keep your head up his ass?

67 are dead. Among them are elite figure skaters, some of them children, their families and coaches. A group of 7 friends returning from a duck hunting trip in KS. A woman who turned 33 that day. All the crew members of American Eagle Airlines flight 5342. All 3 soldiers from the Blackhawk helicopter. Two Chinese Nationals. 5 members of Plumbers, Pipe-fitters, and Steamfitters Local 602. A law professor, beloved family members and an attorney. And many others who have not yet been listed.

What. A. Fucking. Joke. And. Sham.

[mightyflamethrower]

During his news conference on Wednesday night’s deadly plane crash in Washington D.C., President Donald Trump unleashed fury on the Biden administration for using DEI to lower the standards of the The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

Air Traffic Control radar reportedly displayed a “collision alert” in the moments before the crash. A collision alert is meant draw heightened attention from the controllers to potential risks.

“The FAA’s diversity and inclusion hiring plan says diversity is integral to ensuring safe and efficient travel,” Trump complained. “A group within the FAA determined the workforce was too white. They actually came out with a directive saying it’s too white.”

The president reminded reporters that one of the first things he did when he returned to office was sign an executive order to restore high standards for U.S. air traffic controllers under the FAA.

“We will set the highest possible bar for aviation safety. Doesn’t matter what they look like,” he said. “They have to be talented. We’ll restore faith in American air travel.”

Trump began the presser with a moment of silence for the 64 people who were on the American Airlines flight that crashed into the Potomac River. He then said, “the work has now shifted to a recovery mission.”

“Sadly, there are no survivors,” the president said, calling the catastrophe a “dark and excruciating night in our nation’s capital and in our nation’s history, and a tragedy of terrible proportions.”

The PSA Airlines-operated American Airlines aircraft was flying from Wichita to National Airport with 60 passengers and four crew members when it collided with a Blackhawk helicopter on a training flight with three service members on board.

Among the passengers on the plane were a group of competitive figure skaters and their companions from the U.S. and Russia, including retired champions, athletic coaches and family members, according to reports.

The U.S. Figure Skating Championships, considered the most prestigious annual event on the American figure skating calendar, concluded in Wichita on Sunday.

Additionally, four D.C.-area steamfitters were aboard the flight Wednesday night, according to a statement from the United Association of Union Plumbers, Pipefitters and Steamfitters Local 602.

American Airlines CEO Robert Isom said during a Thursday morning news briefing that the captain of the plane had six years of flying experience with American Airlines subsidiary PSA Airlines, and the first officer had “almost three years.”

“These are experienced pilots,” Isom told reporters at at Reagan National Airport. “Again, standard approach.”

During his news conference, Thursday, Trump said his administration will set the highest possible bar for aviation safety.

Trump drew attention to various articles on the Biden regime’s DEI push that appeared in the news just prior to him taking office.

“A group within the FAA determined that the workforce was too white, then they had concerted efforts to get the administration to change that and to change it immediately,” the president stated.

Reading from a January 14 Fox News article, Trump said:  “the FAA’s diversity push includes a focus on hiring people with severe intellectual and psychiatric disabilities.”

“That is amazing,” the president added. “And then it says FAA says people with severe disabilities are most underrepresented segment of the workforce.” The FAA’s diversity and inclusion hiring initiative was spelled out on the agency’s website: “Targeted disabilities are those disabilities that the Federal government, as a matter of policy, has identified for special emphasis in recruitment and hiring. They include hearing, vision, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric disability and dwarfism.” “And they want them in. And they can be air traffic controllers,” Trump continued incredulously. “I don’t think so. That was, a week before I entered office. They put a big push to put diversity into the FAA’s program.”

The president also called out Pete Buttigieg, saying he had a “good line of bullsh-t”

“The FAA, which is overseen by Secretary Pete Buttigieg. A real winner,” Trump said. “That guy’s a real winner. Do you know how badly everything’s run since he’s run the Department of Transportation? He’s a disaster—he’s just got a good line of bullshit.”

Trump added that Buttigieg ran the “FAA right into the ground with his diversity.”

Last April, nearly 1,000 air traffic controller applicants sued Biden’s FAA in a class action lawsuit alleging they were turned away solely based on their race.

Appearing alongside President Trump at Thursday’s press conference were Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy.

Duffy outlined the “whole of government response” to the crash and committed to “get to the bottom of this investigation—not in three years, not in four years, but as quickly as possible.”

“What happened yesterday shouldn’t have happened. It should not have happened,” Duffy said. “And when Americans take off in airplanes, they should expect to land at their destination.”

Hegseth echoed the president in saying that the collision was the result of human error.

“Last night, a mistake was made—some kind of an elevation issue that we have immediately begun investigating at the DoD and Army level,” he told reporters, adding that the Army’s Criminal Investigation Division was already on the ground investigating with “top tier aviation assets inside the DoD” to “get to the bottom of it so it does not happen again because it’s absolutely unacceptable.” “We will have the best and brightest in every position possible,” Hegseth continued. “As [Trump] said in inaugural, it is colorblind and merit based—the best leaders possible, whether it’s flying Blackhawk helicopters, flying airplanes, leading platoons, or in government.” “The era of DEI is gone at the Defense Department and we need the best and brightest whether it’s in air traffic control, whether it’s in our generals, or whether it’s in our government,” the Defense Secretary added.

Vance reiterated the president’s anti-DEI message, saying: “When you don’t have the best standards in who you are hiring, it means on the one hand you’re not getting the best people in government, but on the other hand it puts stresses on the people who are already there. We want to hire the best people.”
