Summary
Will Graham wakes up in a hospital after going over the cliff, alone.
Hannibal Lecter is gone, and Jack Crawford wastes no time pulling Will back into the FBI when a new serial killer begins leaving bodies behind.
As Will struggles to rebuild a life already in ruins, Hannibal re-enters it, blurring the line between memory, delusion, and desire. The murders feel uncomfortably familiar. The reconstructions feel wrong. And the closer Will gets to the truth, the harder it becomes to tell whether he’s hunting a killer or being shaped into one.
With the FBI closing in and his own mind turning against him, Will must confront what he’s capable of, who he’s becoming, and whether Hannibal Lecter is truly gone…or exactly where he’s always been.

Summary
When Hannibal met Will Graham (the man who had, three years prior, been mistaken for the Chesapeake Ripper), he expected amusement. What he got was his first taste of obsession. Dark and bitter in the back of his throat but achingly sweet on the tongue. He knew at once that this feeling, this Man, would consume him.
And Hannibal would consume Will right back.

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.

Summary
Dangerous. This smart boy became really dangerous, really fast. Hannibal lets out a big sigh after Will leaves one night.
Oh.
That’s what it is, isn’t it?
How did he get here?
How did he let himself be caught in something so human?
...
