    Summary

    “Yes.”

    Hannibal Lecter tilts his head, considering his visitor. "Will you be elaborating?” he asks, his tone flat, indifferent.

    “Yes! Dr. Lecter,” the man’s eyes glow, catching the light from the fire. "Yes! The answer to your question.”

    "I fail to recollect asking a question."

    "Oh, come now, Dr. Lecter. The question. The question that sticks in the back of your throat. The question that lurks just in the periphery of your vision, murmuring in your ear as you drift into sleep, only to startle you awake, to cower in the darkness."

    Hannibal shifts his gaze to his wine, only the subtle clench of his jaw betraying the mask of apathy he has fashioned.

    “Yes. The question, Dr Lecter,” he repeats, savouring the growing tension, “Am I to be the instrument of your undoing, your downfall, your death?"

    Hannibal meets his eyes but remains silent.

    “Yes, I am Dr. Lecter." The man, madness dancing in his eyes, leans forward, his lips curling into a demented grin. "I suggest you make peace with your gods and your demons.”

    Summary

    The first time Hannibal Lecter saw Will Graham was in the middle of spring, April 3rd, 1978. Hannibal remembered seeing Matron usher another kid inside the orphanage: unruly curls sticking out from his head, cheeks round, an innocent facade. Hannibal thought he’d be just like the other kids—shallow, boring, simple. Nothing more than another story of parents abandoning a child they found annoying and unwanted.

    But no. How mistaken he had been.
