Summary
A Digestivo fix-it fic. Instead of escaping from the Vergers' farm to Will's house, Hannibal goes the opposite direction and takes them into the woods. Will wakes up to find them on the run, while they try to survive and restore their broken relationship.
“Do you want a confession of guilt? That I injured you and enjoyed it? That seeing your face permanently marked will give me pleasure?” Hannibal looked back at him, eyes soft. As vulnerable as he’d been in sleep. “Would that satisfy you?”
Will thought for a long moment, not dropping his eye contact. Finally he asked, in a measured tone, “If not for pleasure, why do it?”
“The line between pleasure and suffering is a razor’s edge. Falling to one side or the other can be more a matter of chance than of choice.”
