Summary
“Hello, Two Forks Station? Please pick up your radio.” He hears a voice say from the radio already. The voice is masculine and carries an accent from a place Will can’t put his finger on.
Pressing his thumb to the left side of the radio, Will speaks, “Uh, hello. Who is this?”
“I’m speaking to Will Graham, right?” The man asks.
“Yeah. You can just call me Will, though.”
“Nice to hear you, Will. I’m Hannibal Lecter, but please, call me Hannibal.” The man, Hannibal, says. What kind of name is Hannibal anyway?
————
In the year 1989, after failing his psych evaluation for the FBI, Will Graham finds a summer job as a fire watcher, alone in a national park. Well, alone but for his radio mate, Hannibal Lecter.

While solving crimes for the FBI she meets Dr. Hannibal Lecter who at first isn't all that interesting and then, later, might be too good to be true. It takes her too long to realize it's the opposite.

Summary
When Harry blows up Aunt Marge, Dumbledore decides he can't be left to his own devices in Diagon Alley for the whole of August and sends him to stay with the only person available - one highly displeased Severus Snape. Harry, for his part, doesn't think this summer could get any worse. After all, what could be more unpleasant than living with Professor Snape?
Finding out that Draco Malfoy is also staying at Spinner’s End, of course.
None of them know how they'll survive a month in each others' company, but they might just come out the other side with something they all need the most: a family.

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
Will imagined his death in numerous ways, numerous times. Being chosen as a tribute opened a road of new possibilities, some more horrifying than the others.
He doesn’t want to be torn to pieces like Randall Tier’s prey. He doesn’t want to be burned like Francis Dolarhyde prefers to kill. But most of all he doesn’t want to be caught by Hannibal Lecter, a career tribute with a penchant for eating his victims alive.
Too bad Hannibal seems fixated on him.
