Summary
The boy on the banner looked down at him with eyes full of hatred and a golden laurel wreath on his head that had been gained with more blood than any other.
Whenever Seonghwa saw the image of the victor, there was nothing but the memory of that cruel smile as he had slit yet another child's throat. Deeply etched into Seonghwa's memory to forever haunt him.
And the knowledge that he could never bring himself to do what Kim Hongjoong had done.
Or: When Seonghwa gets reaped to compete in the Hunger Games, he is not only sent to an almost promised grave - he is also assigned to be mentored by the infamous Kim Hongjoong. The victor with the highest kill count in the history of the Hunger Games.

Summary
“I need to run some tests on you, Will. I’m afraid you may find it invasive, but I require a baseline reading of your resistance. It is the only way we can progress with your treatment.” Now it’s Will’s turn to smirk, albeit without mirth. He knows the ‘request’ that Doctor Lecter is about to make. To the doctor’s credit, he sounds convincingly professional—as if Will has a goddamn choice. “May I touch you?”
Long, pale fingertips hover centimetres in front of Will’s face, anticipating. Will sucks in a breath, assumes a disarming smile, and looks Doctor Lecter dead in the eye.
“You can try.”
He hopes it really, really fucking hurts.
In a world where the forts guarding the mind are expressed as physical barriers, Special Agent Will Graham has an unfortunate track record for injuring anybody who gets too close.
Enter Doctor Hannibal Lecter, 'custodiruptor', a specialist in breaking down the walls that guard the heart and mind.
The question is, who exactly is breaking down who?
