    Summary

    The drawback of the Datasync from Will’s cell phone being directly plugged into his auditory nerve was that if you set noise cancelling to maximum, as Will was prone to do, you could miss things. Things such as, his boss bellowing his name as he barrelled down the hallway without stopping.

    Will was on a break, you see, and thus was within his rights, he felt, to be embedded in the soothing tones of a UnitedUniversal immersive commercial.

    Will buys an android to look after his dogs while he’s at work. What he gets is a whole lot more than that.

    Summary

    Because there it is. The bare thing. The fruit beneath the peel. The soft pad at the center of the foot, wrinkled and pale and shining with faint moisture. Like pulp. Like flesh squeezed from the body. Is it not made for the mouth? Hannibal asks himself this without irony. Is it not designed for contact, for worship, for the intimacy of lips? Pith, sugar, soft division, the anatomy of sweetness.

    - or -

    Hannibal blissfully reflects on oranges and Will is a freak about his feet <3

    Summary

    Later, by the fire, when he stays quiet through their banter, Buck squints at him. "So, you got a name?"

    The question is simple. Too simple. But it feels like a blow to the ribs.

    He has had names before.

    The Juden call him Malakh Ha-Mavet. Before that, he was Number Six. Before that… there was nothing. His siblings once called him Sunny, but they are gone. He doesn’t answer.

    Buck frowns. "Well, that’s just not gonna work." The others throw out suggestions. Some are jokes, some are serious. But Buck just watches him, head tilted, expression unreadable.

    But then Buck says, "You look like a Steve."

    The name lands strange in his ears. He turns it over in his mind, like a stone in his palm, smooth and unfamiliar.

    "Steve," he murmurs. It feels foreign. But it does not feel wrong.

    "Yeah," Buck says, watching him. "Steve. You like it?”

    He grips the coat a little tighter and whispers it to himself again. Just to see how it feels.

    "…Yeah," he murmurs. "Steve."

    (Or the time Bucky Barnes adopts a cryptid and makes him the most famous man in America.)

    Summary

    Hannibal Lecter,

    Hi. My name is Will Graham. I'm a student in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. My French class has to write your English class for a project. I think you know that. I also think you know that I couldn't care less. That sucks.

    You look interesting, from your picture. Your eyes are very nice, but cold. I wonder what you do in your free time. Maybe you kick puppies. You look like you kick puppies. In a fashionable way, like Cruella de Vil, but maybe not quite like that because you'd do it in a more fashionable way.

    We don't have much information on our pen pals yet. I know of the classes you're taking, at least. It's literature. I'm not interested in literature, but I do work with cars in school. I take a class on cars. It's cool. I had it yesterday. We learned about changing oil.

    You look like my friend's mom. Not really, but your smile. It's similar. It's kind of pretty.

    Will Graham

    Or, Will Graham learns the value of beautiful handwriting.

    Summary

    Will is a self-isolated writer, having a good amount of books to his name, and a loyal following of fans. His mind is wrought with images of horror, which he pours into words and pages of his books. He doesn't like the publicity aspect of his work, and he won't like it at all when an actual killer takes an interest in him.
