Summary
“What’s the premise of the show, for our viewers who may only just be hearing about it?”
“Well,” Freddie says, putting a hand on Chilton’s arm that looks friendly, but is certainly a warning; “There are so many reality shows nowadays where the drama and tension comes from the interaction of the contestants. But there is no real depth to it. We wanted to expand on the existing formula, really get outside the box and watch it collapse.”
Amanda laughs, brow creasing. “Sounds ambitious.”
“Oh, it is,” Chilton says, smiling wide and slick. “The idea is this; everyone has a secret. Something they would never confess to anyone else. Modern psychology would tell us that these secrets shape how people behave. We wanted to take a group of brilliant people who are all hiding something, and see if they can remove the smoke and mirrors and really get at the essence of each other.”
“So, it’s like a murder mystery dinner meets reality TV.”

Summary
Will Graham is a producer on a Bachelor knock off reality TV show. Against his protests and better judgement, Dr. Hannibal Lecter is cast as the primary love interest on the show. Despite his many initial misgivings, Hannibal is a hit, and Will finds himself as drawn into the story Hannibal is creating as everyone watching at home. Everything is going well until Will becomes suspicious that he is the real object of Hannibal's affections, and all of a sudden contestants start to turn up murdered.
"Vena Amoris" is the (Mythical!) vein that runs from the ring finger to the heart; supposedly that is why we wear wedding rings on that finger.

Summary
Will has always been drawn to the macabre. The proverbial flame upon which he has burnt his fragile moth’s wings time and time again, it’s why he had fallen in love with Florence and why he alone seems to see the beauty in the grisly but exquisite work of Il Mostro.
But when he meets a young man in the Uffizi Gallery whose sketchbook is filled with nothing but page upon page of intricate renditions of the Primavera drawn in reverent strokes of pencil, he realizes he may not be alone in his fascination with the Monster. As they lift veils and scale forts and slowly begin to understand each other, Will gets a taste of exactly how bright the cinders of intrigue can burn—and how quickly they can kindle into an inferno of obsession.

Summary
Will shouldn't be here, but he is. He shouldn't go inside, but he does. He shouldn't stay, and yet…
He's getting close to his heat. It comes like clockwork, so he can't even use the excuse that it snuck up on him. Sure, maybe the severity in the days leading up to it has felt a little more powerful than usual, but he can chalk that up to stress. Because he is stressed. Hannibal helps, when he's stressed. Hannibal doesn't comment on his scent, the gold in his eyes, the heat radiating off him like a furnace. He's polite like that. He's safe, he's a good Alpha, impeccably in control of his instincts. He couldn't break even if Will wanted to break him.
So he's here. He's inside. He stays.

Summary
Will blinks, slow. He glances to either side of himself, past exposed brick and reclaimed wooden floors, past steel fittings holding up tables marked ‘no laptops’ with carefully calligraphed signs and the wiry bulbs burning dim in light fixtures above. He looks at the young man behind him, who doesn’t notice past his phone and his earbuds, and finally Will turns back to the barista.
Baristo?
Coffee-monger?
Fuck it.
“Just coffee,” Will repeats again, slower.
A delightful AU about a rare book dealer, an owner of a high-end coffee shop, and murder. This does involve Hannibal Lecter, after all.

Summary
Will knew what had happened. He knew exactly how Abigail's ear had gotten into him, who had shoved it down his throat. He also knew that trying to indicate Hannibal as a killer again was futile. Jack seemed to want to believe him, going by the conversation in the BSHCI's visitor hall, but Jack needed something concrete, evidence. Hannibal had eluded capture for so long, he wasn't going to start leaving fingerprints or hairs at his crime scenes now.
No, Will was going to deal with Hannibal Lecter on his own terms. The man deserved to reap what he'd so carefully sowed, didn't he? He deserved to experience what he'd coaxed forth from the bottom of Will's soul, to see the result of his machinations.

After his release from the Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, Will doesn't return to work for the FBI.

Summary
For HannibalCreative's #ItsStillBeautiful event. (And now added to Fresh_Meat_Friday!)
He can hear the formulation of something scathing on the tip of Hannibal's tongue, the man incapable of holding it in, so he forges on, reformulates, lets his eyes drop down, his brows draw together. He shakes his head in the way he knows Hannibal likes. “No, I mean...” He pauses, then looks up under his lashes, as coy as possible. “I wish you could give me a baby. Yours. And mine.” He steps closer, presses up against solid warmth, knocks their knees together, lifts his arms to clutch at Hannibal's shoulders.
Bites his lip.
“I wish you could make me pregnant.”
Hannibal's pupils blast open, and something seems to crack on his face.

Summary
When Will Graham woke up this morning, something in the back of his tangled web of thoughts spoke with alarming clarity; The backdrop is set. Something extraordinary is coming.
The first time he built a tableau, out of poor Freddie Lounds no less, he prayed that the Ripper would see him. He must have. The idea thrills him, gives Will a sense of wanting he hasn’t felt since the first time he saw a Ripper scene.
Suddenly the universe’s message is well–received. He knows this face. He knows those eyes.
And, evidently, those eyes know his too.

Summary
“Will Graham,” Hannibal repeated, rolling the sound in his mouth like he was tasting it. Maybe he was. The thought made Will flush. “You are not like the usual sacrifices the village send me.”
Will can’t help but wonder why he wasn’t dead yet. “What is the usual sacrifice?”
“Either the sick or the dying.” Hannibal responded, stepping closer, invading Will’s space. Will had nowhere to go except pressing himself back against the pole.
Hannibal reached out with his long fingers, his cool touch sliding down his cheek to rest just below his chin. “I never had anyone so pretty before.”
~
The quaint village of Wolf Trap had a wicked secret. For an abundant harvest and disease free life for the villagers, the people have made a deal with the Horned God of the Wood, Hannibal. In return for such blessings, Hannibal demands a human sacrifice every year.
The sacrifice was chosen and this year it's Will. Only Will doesn’t plan to go quietly.
And Hannibal? He likes it when they struggle

Summary
When Will opens Hannibal's letter, it wakes something primal locked inside of him. He doesn't understand it, but what he does know is that he has to go to Baltimore hospital for the criminally insane, and he has to go now.
Dear Will. He could still see the words, written in the curly elegance of Hannibal's hand, burning behind his eyelids. He breathed deeply through his nose to try and calm the unsteady flutter of his heart. A deep breath. One that clawed at his nose, one that penetrated his nostrils like a liquid, a smothering sting he felt intruding behind his eyes.
One. Deep. Breath.
And then it took him.
