Chapter Text
Later that day Will and Hannibal sat on the couch, Abigail in a chair nearby. Will had been trying for months to get Hannibal to watch a TV show with him. But Hannibal wasn't having it. Hannibal always said he “did not believe in TV”, whatever that means… But this time, Will had managed to crack him. He would be showing Hannibal a show called ‘Law & Order”. Will explained a bit about the show before turning it on. To Will’s surprise, Abigail was quite the fan of the show. Which helped Will’s case on why Hannibal should watch it. After watching the first 2 episodes Will paused to ask Hannibal what he was thinking.
“So…” Will start.
“That is nothing like how the law really works.” Hannibal said.
“Well it is a TV show.” Abigail chimed in.
“Still, why would they make it like that?” Hannibal said, seeming almost flabbergasted.
“It's just more fun to watch if it's exaggerated.” Will stated.
Will turned on episode 3. But this time, instead of just sitting and watching, Hannibal brought it upon himself to point out everything wrong with the show. Maybe this is why Hannibal doesn't watch TV…

The next morning when Will woke up he realized that Hannibal, for the second day in a row, wasn't in bed. Will don't worry as much as he had the day before. Assuming his husband was just down stairs, probably in the kitchen. Will meanderd down the stairs after a few more minutes in bed. The first person was Abigail, sitting at the kitchen island. She was enjoying a piece of toast. Will came up behind her, putting his hands on her shoulders. He leaned in and gave her a soft on the forehead.
“Do you happen to know where your father is?” he asked her.
“Yeah, I think he is in the living room.” she responded, a bit distracted by what was on her laptop.
“Thank you.” Will said, walking to the living room. Once Will made it into the living room he saw the TV was on. Playing Law & Order. Hannibal was curled up on the coch watching.
“I thought you didn't like this show” Will deadpan.
“I never said that ” Hannibal respond.
“How long have you been watching this?” Will asked.
“Only a few hours.” Hannibal said.
“You know it's considered rude to continue a show without the person you started it with.” Will said, sitting down next to Hannibal.
“Really?”
