    Summary

    “Will.”

    His name slips from between Hannibal’s lips, and the word contains everything from a gentle query to a dark warning. Will frowns, selecting his next words carefully.

    “I just want to know you.”

    _______

    Will wakes up in hospital after falling to what should have been his death. Hannibal isn't there. Everything is different now, his emotions and instincts conflicted.

    He understands that he has to find Hannibal - that pulling away hurts those around him, hurts him - and decides not to think about what life will be beyond that point.

    Summary

    Regret is not something Dr. Hannibal Lecter is accustomed to feeling, but it struck him the first night that Will Graham was unable to meet him at his usual appointment time due to his arrest for the copycat killings. After the sick man's escape from his medical transport, an opportunity arises for Hannibal--one where he is able to clear Will's name and shift his plans from trapping the profiler behind bars in order to preserve his own freedom to one where he can continue to foster a deep rooted codependency that would ensure Will's inability to leave him, even if he were to learn the truth of who Hannibal really is.

    Summary

    "I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."

    "This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"

    "Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."

    "Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."

    Summary

    Daniel is sprawled out across the bed, loose-limbed and lazy, somehow filling all the open space it has to offer and leaving Armand to nestle into the gaps. His cheeks are flushed, blood pooling like it knows what comes next. Maybe it does. Armand was reading about classical conditioning the other day. About dogs who become accustomed to getting food when their handler rings a bell.

    Perhaps Daniel is the dog, Armand’s teeth sharp bells reverberating in his veins. Or perhaps Armand is the dog, Daniel’s blood a song rattling in his ears. He has been a dog before. He runs his tongue along the bow of Daniel’s collarbone, gathers the salt-sweat there and imagines what it tastes like because Daniel does.


    Armand remembers he loved Daniel, once, and that Daniel loved him. Or a version of them did, at least. It isn't his intention to go back to that, but it's not not his intention, either. Such is the prerogative of an immortal: to hold two contradicting desires simultaneously. If nothing else, it passes the time while he waits for this miserable interview to end.
