Summary
Hannibal Lecter is everything his house requires of him: brilliant, dangerous, impeccably controlled and entirely unwilling to marry. Once deeply in love and thoroughly betrayed, he has long since decided that affection is a liability he can no longer afford. His father, less philosophical and far more practical, eventually loses patience and arranges what Hannibal has so carefully avoided: a suitable match with the House of Graham.
Caterina Graham is everything a young noblewoman should be. Beautiful, educated, quiet, and compliant. She is also not alone.
Accompanying her is her twin brother, William Graham, who is none of those things. He is observant, sharp-tongued, difficult, and entirely uninterested in being agreeable. Where his sister yields, Will pushes back.
This story explores aristocratic pressure, inheritance, and the slow unraveling of control. It is a slow burn, an enemies-to-lovers dynamic rooted in power, rivalry, and reluctant fascination. Alpha/Omega elements are present.

Summary
Modern cultivator, Wei Wuxian, dies in a train crash and is sent back in time to the period of Ancient China he had been writing his thesis on - transmigrated into his own body as a child, dying on the streets of Yiling. He has no money, no family, but a knowledge of modern cultivation and of the historical events that are about to unfold.
He recalls the recently-unearthed journal of a woman who was imprisoned in Cloud Recesses against her will, and decides that she’s a good place to start to find someone who might be willing to help him dismantle the corruption that had sent the Cultivation World into the Dark Ages so long ago.
Of course, he had no idea that the person he sought would be the mother of Hanguang-Jun, the object of Wei Wuxian's fascination (“obsession,” his friend had corrected), since he had first learned of his existence in the ancient texts he'd studied.

Or at least it will be once Hua Cheng, who’s been searching for centuries, finally gets to give his god everything he dreamed of offering. Good thing ghosts aren’t living creatures!- Language:

Summary
When Harry was young, a prophecy foretold he would defeat the darkest Dark Lord of their age. And somehow, he had—without him remembering.
But just before he left for Hogwarts, his parents warned him about the Dark Lord's son, one he had left behind in a Muggle orphanage, never to get close—
Harry didn't care. He befriended the prickly Slytherin, and now, a decade later, they had never been closer.
They were best friends. Best friends who happened to fuck... best friends who knew how each other tasted.
It was perfect—until it wasn't. Things went downhill when Ron and Hermione noticed Tom's gift, and suggested, that it looked like... a proposal.
That wasn't right. Lots of friends sleep together, right? Tell the other how good they felt, how amazingly they sucked...
Oh. Oh, fuck.

Fandoms: Hannibal (TV)
16 Oct 2016

Summary
"Love and death are the great hinges on which all human sympathies turn. What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others lives beyond us."
Will confesses everything when he calls to warn Hannibal, Hannibal's resolve wavers enough for him to make a fateful choice, and Abigail is once again caught up in the storm.
Almost nothing goes as planned — and yet, just like one of Hannibal's teacups, everything comes back together in the end.
* * *
An alternate course of events for "Mizumono," as narrated by Abigail Hobbs.

Summary
"You're a psychiatrist," Will says. "Between your personal and professional lives you must have met thousands of people, you must know dozens of different flavors of pathology. Do you know anyone who would take me as I am? Who would be able to love me," he gestures in a sweeping motion, from his messy hair to his stained knee, "just as I am?"
"I do."
Bedelia's words shock Will into stillness.
“Really?”
AKA an AU where Bedelia is Will’s psychiatrist instead of Hannibal, Will makes a series of increasingly questionable life choices, and no one should ever take Bedelia’s advice. Ever.

Summary
Instead of waiting for dinner, Will packs a bag, leaves a note for Alana, and shows up at Hannibal’s house the morning before the events of Mizumono with a pair of plane tickets. But leaving with Will isn’t the same as forgiving him, and turns out, Hannibal might need a sacrifice after all.

Summary
"There was only one person whose opinion mattered to Jack. And trust me, you don’t want to be that person.”
Clarice frowned in confusion. “You mean that trainee… Miriam Lass?”
“Nah, I mean Will Graham.”
A loud bang filled the usually quiet morgue as Jimmy Price dropped the bag he had been holding a moment before.
“What are you doing? You shouldn’t talk about him!”
“Why not?”
Zeller looked at him expectantly, challengingly, and Jimmy huffed in response.
“You damn well know why. It’s like with Voldemort. You can say it, but you shouldn’t, because it freaks people out.”AKA
Clarice Starling meets the Murder Husbands and discovers things about human nature that no university class or FBI training could ever prepare her for.

Summary
Will stares at the bird. The bird stares back. In its beak, a very finely embroidered cloth, and in that, the tiniest of soft fists pushing forward from a folded corner.
“Don’t you dare,” Will says, crouching, hand that is not currently cradling an overly large pour of whiskey pointed at the bird to ward it off.
---
After Hannibal is arrested and the trial dates are set, the stork visits Will Graham. With it, it brings a baby, a legally binding birth certificate, and a hope chest full of gifts for her. Nobody except Will thinks this is weird.
(Alternatively, what if the Scarlet Letter was a dark romantic comedy?)

Summary
Four years after his escape, Hannibal Lecter is once again imprisoned at the hospital in Baltimore. He's the same as ever, except that he refuses to discuss Will Graham, who there hasn't been a trace of in years. When the Buffalo Bill killings start, FBI trainee Clarice Starling is sent to interview him, and Hannibal has his interest piqued. But it’s not for reasons anyone would suspect, and as usual, his motivations are all about Will. A remix of Silence of the Lambs, where Clarice finds herself occupied not only with catching Buffalo Bill, but with unraveling the mystery of what exactly happened to Will Graham. And Hannibal knows more than he’s letting on about both.

Summary
When the Boy-Who-Lived stood in the middle of the clearing, waiting for death with terrified yet resigned eyes, the Dark Lord Voldemort thought that he had finally won. That he could now shape the world the way he was always meant to do, with no Dumbledore, no prophecy, no boy with green eyes stubbornly standing in his way. He raised his wand and confidently cast the Killing Curse and, once again, his life fell apart.
OR
When Harry chooses to come back to life, he takes with him the entirety of Voldemort's soul. In doing so, Voldemort's mind and body reset to the time right before he made his first horcrux; he is seventeen again, and does not seem to remember the horrors he has committed. The Light wins the war, and is left with an impossible decision. What should be done with Tom Marvolo Riddle?
