    Summary

    Today begins with the familiar sensation of Will’s wiry hands gripping Hannibal’s sides. There was a time when Hannibal would wake early in the morning, waiting for their routine so that he could prevent Will from hurling them over the bed. It only saddened Hannibal whenever he would see the look of defeat on Will’s face, like a bullet shatters glass. So, he lets Will attempt to kill him every morning, knowing he would fail and sometimes hoping he wouldn’t.

    Will suffers from anterograde amnesia, unable to remember any day after the fall from the cliffside. Hannibal never gives up hope.

    Summary

    Will waves his phone in Beverly’s face, holding back the scream he feels perched on the tip of his tongue. “What the hell would inspire you to do something like this, Katz?” When the screen goes black he opens it again, a page on the display showing a profile with his name and basic details, and an artistically shot image of him on the front lawn of the university, studying anatomical references for his latest sculpture.

    Summary

    "Did you just smell me?”

     

    "Difficult to avoid. My apologies, I didn’t realize there were any Omegas in this section of the prison.”

     

    “Most get sent to the Omega Holding Facility two counties over. But then, most don’t get done in for rippin’ out an Alpha’s throat in the middle of the street.”

    -

    Hannibal Lecter had always known the winding road of fate may one day lead him straight to a prison cell. He’d never imagined he’d find his true mate there.

    Summary

    A Season 2 AU in which Will Graham did not, at any point, accuse Hannibal of being the Chesapeake Ripper.

    Will Graham is the smartest person most people will ever have the misfortune to meet. Hannibal Lecter has been no exception; he's brilliant, but his failing is that he assumes he's the mastermind in every situation. He still thinks Will didn't pick up on every weird joke, every coincidence, every threat disguised as a charming quip, every flashing neon sign that screams "Hannibal Lecter is the Chesapeake Ripper!"

    Now, Will has to decide what he wants from Hannibal. For the first time in his life, it seems like there's a possibility that somebody might be close enough to his level for a real connection. Hannibal is an apex predator in a garish suit, blind to Will's superior camouflage, and the Ripper's obsession with Agent Graham is so obvious it's drawing attention from... undesirable sources. If Will can manipulate everything to his desired outcome, Hannibal could become the equal Will has always wanted.

    If he wants to protect their fragile peace, it'll take a lot more than just Hannibal Lecter.

    That's fine. After all, Will has never been able to stop himself at just one stray.
