There are a lot of things that Richard Vincent has missed out for various reasons - being orphaned young and jerked around by the foster care system, and then being brought up as a cannibalistic serial killer will do that to a person. One of those things is not having all that many close, personal relationships. So, sometimes, when his new associates from the Man-Eaters Anonymous support group do little things can throw him for a loop. Getting a friendly Valentine's card from Clarice? Well, judging by the look on both parties faces, he won't be forgetting this for some time.

Artwork by Hatarla, a late V-Day commission and even later post up on my end. She does wonderful work, and I appreciate the time and effort she put into this piece. Humans aren't her thing, so it's definitely an interesting take on these two... Seeing a skinny interpretation of Clarice is really, really weird. But her hair looks neat. As always, Richard and Clarice and Man-Eaters Anonymous are mine.
