Fanfic Rec #95 Will Graham/Hannibal Lecter (Hannibal) part 16
Let The Lambs Scream by Thestarvedghost
In cells next to each other, were Will Graham and Hannibal Lecter.
"Graham...Lecter," Chilton's voice broke through the quiet of the room. "You have a visitor."
Both men looked at Starling with differing levels of interest.
"Hello, I'm Agent Clarice Starling."
oh, give no faith to show by videcormeum
“Try to relax your shoulders. Be one with your body, do not fight it.”
Atoms separated them. Will swallowed. With a deep, steadying breath, he allowed his shoulders to drop. It felt better, the pull at his muscles easier. His chin lifted naturally. Projecting to the balcony.
Hannibal smiled. “That’s good, Will.”
Dancers are dying at a local ballet company. With local law enforcement convinced it's an inside job, promising FBI agent and ex-dancer Will Graham is sent undercover to investigate. When he meets renowned ballet dancer Hannibal Lecter, it becomes clear that the investigation will be anything but straightforward.
The Oceans Enigmatic Love by Totallyottie99
Will Graham has worked as a glorified janitor for 'Chilton's Aquarium of Oddities' for what feels like a lifetime. He enjoys the company of the mysterious creatures much more than the two-faced rich people he has to deal with on a daily basis. However, when the Aquarium obtains a Mermaid from the ocean, something that has never before been accomplished before since their discovery. Will quickly learns that this Mer is far more dangerous than anything he, or humanity, has faced before. While he tries not to be eaten, it seems Hannibal has other plans in store for him...
University-verse by luvkurai
University friends pressure closet homosexual Will to go to a gay club with them. He meets a very well-dressed man with a sexy accent.
Will is 22 and in grad school; Hannibal is 35.
Sleeping in the Knife Drawer by emungere
Hannibal's an FBI agent. Will's a serial killer. He still has a lot of dogs and dislikes being sociable. Hannibal still wants to wind him up and watch him go.
I really want to know what you’d do with “I have you now, my pretty” for Bad Things Happen Bingo <3
NGL, this one was weirdly difficult. I guess because almost everything I write for Sladin kinda falls under the “I Have You Now, My Pretty” trope, so I had too much freedom, hahaha.
That said, here’s the closest thing to an Apprentice Arc rewrite I’ll probably ever do. :p
Also on AO3!
I Have You Now, My Pretty
Slade watched him change. He watched.
Thespotlight cut through the room like a blade, warm on his bare skin. Face burning, Robin kicked off his boots andunclasped his belt. Slade remained ashadow in the unlit corner of the room, not moving, breathing so softly Robinmight’ve forgotten he was there. Excepthe could feel Slade’s eyes onhim. Searing through his skin.
Droppinghis belt with his boots, Robin peeled off his gloves. He balled them up and stuffed them in his shoe,putting off the inevitable.
Letting out a slow breath, he straightened. Curled his fingers in the hem of his shirt.
Glancedat Slade.
Andtugged the shirt off over his head.
Theinstant the spotlight hit his bare shoulders, he stepped back into the shadows. Suddenly, he understood why Raven liked topull that sweeping cloak around herself. Something about Slade’s eyes on his body made his skin crawl.
‘No,Robin,’ Slade said smoothly. ‘Stay inthe light.’
‘Why?’Robin shot back.
Apause, and although he couldn’t see Slade’s face, Robin got the impression hewas licking his lips. ‘So I can see you.’
Robinwent cold. His heart leaped into his throat,and he was backing up before he’d even realised he was moving, because no way, no way—
Slademoved so fast Robin had barely turned to face him before the fist swung up intohis jaw. His teeth crashed together andhe tumbled back, and landed heavy. Thebreath huffed out of him, pain pulsing through his face.
‘Getup, Robin.’
Theroom swayed. Robin shook his head,trying to get his feet under him. A handcurled around his arm and yanked, dragging him up.
‘Isaid get up.’
Robinstaggered, but kept his feet. Slade’shand remained tight on his arm, tugging him back so his shoulders slammed intoSlade’s chest.
‘WhenI tell you to do something, you will obey.’ Slade’s breath traced Robin’s ear and he shuddered. Slade’s other arm curled around Robin’s body,and with a flash of silver, the trigger slipped out of Slade’s sleeve and intohis waiting palm. ‘Or else …’
‘Iknow,’ Robin ground out. ‘I know.’
Thetrigger disappeared into Slade’s armour. ‘Then stay in the light. Keepstill. And keep your eyes forward.’
Robinclenched his jaw as Slade drew back his arm, but didn’t move. Fine. Slade wanted to watch him strip? Fine. He wouldn’t let Slade shame him. And that was all it was—a power play—another way to make Robin feelsmall and powerless, and—
Heheard the click, but didn’t realise it was Slade’s mask until he felt bare skinpress against his neck, just behind his ear. Robin jolted, and began to turn, but—
‘Eyesforward, Robin.’ Slade’s hand tightenedon Robin’s arm.
Andbefore Robin could take a breath, he felt something warm and wet at the base ofhis throat. It traced up over his skin,and Robin sucked a gasp and jerked in Slade’s grip as he realised—
Slade’stongue curled behind his ear, and then his teeth snapped down on Robin’searlobe.
Witha yelp, Robin tried to lunge away, but Slade’s arms closed around his baretorso, dragging him back, crushing him close.
‘You’re going tolearn, Robin.’ Slade’s lips brushed theshell of Robin’s ear, his breath hot. ‘Howeverlong it takes. You decide how difficultthis is going to be.’
Do you have any fav ships outside the DC universe?
ohh GOD it’s been a while since i stanned anything else.....
hmmm, well, severus/lily was my first ship ever, waaay back in my harry potter phase - i still love it. in the fmab fandom i ship my roy/kimblee rowboat and i still love the jasper/peridot size dif. ALSO people on twitter are getting me into enji/shouto and reigen/mob which are CHOICE.
-this is something i’ve been working on for a while! i figured it would be a nice way to welcome the new reylos and also for us seasoned two-years to read some of our favorite works again before the last jedi.
-the list is separated into three categories: one shots, multi-chapter works (1 to 10 chapters) and novel length (anything more than 10 chapters)
-there are also separated lists for alternate universe and star wars universe stories. (a few could go either way, but if it’s based in a galaxy far far away, it goes in the second category.)
-every fic on this list is complete. there are many great works not on this list that deserve recognition, (i’m looking at you, thwarted and satan wears a rolex) but they will appear in later volumes.
-many volumes to come! vol. two is being worked on right now. feel free to send me/share any other completed fics you love or have written and i would love to include them in the coming volumes. happy reading!

Fanfic Rec #97 Will Graham/Hannibal Lecter (Hannibal) part 17
Letting It Go by agendercyborg
Will doesn't recognize the reality presented to him. The ring on his finger is as foreign as Hannibal and Abigail's affection towards him. A coma and amnesia seems too cliche. What happened to the crime scenes, to the FBI, to his time loss? He was crazy, but not THIS kind of crazy.
you may be a sinner, but your innocence is mine by multifandom_fanfic_writer
“Hello,” Will said. He wanted to say something else, something to convey his relief at Hannibal being alive, being okay, but he didn’t know what to say.
“Hello,” Hannibal responded. His eyes were bright. “You are very beautiful.”
Boon by SleepsWithCoyotes
"My horse is hitched to a post closer to Asperger's and autistics than narcissists and sociopaths, but that's not what you want to know. You want to know how I faked my genetic profile."
Jack straightens. "The Bureau doesn't discriminate along species lines--"
"Unless, of course, you lie on your application or tamper with the genetic screening your employment is conditional upon," Will counters, upper lip curling in disdain. He's not devout, content to be ignored by Others and gods alike, and though he acknowledges the usefulness of the Compact, he considers the monthly tithe too high a price for the boons they receive in return. He's still going to argue this point with anyone who'll listen, because as little as he likes Others, he appreciates hypocrisy even less.
Looks Like Love by luvkurai
When the drink returns to Will’s outstretched hand he finishes it. “I think I’ll go to bed.”
Hannibal nods and stands to see him back through the door, obviously with no intention of following. “It is good to see you again, William.”
After his sister's wedding, Will kisses his childhood housekeeper (and first love).
Something to make yourself sick on by chaparral_crown
Will Graham is having a hard time adjusting to life after prison, and takes a day off following the discovery of Randall Tier's first kill.
Predictably and ironically, Hannibal insists on being part of it. Set during S2: Shiizakana.
