Summary
A Season 2 AU in which Will Graham did not, at any point, accuse Hannibal of being the Chesapeake Ripper.
Will Graham is the smartest person most people will ever have the misfortune to meet. Hannibal Lecter has been no exception; he's brilliant, but his failing is that he assumes he's the mastermind in every situation. He still thinks Will didn't pick up on every weird joke, every coincidence, every threat disguised as a charming quip, every flashing neon sign that screams "Hannibal Lecter is the Chesapeake Ripper!"
Now, Will has to decide what he wants from Hannibal. For the first time in his life, it seems like there's a possibility that somebody might be close enough to his level for a real connection. Hannibal is an apex predator in a garish suit, blind to Will's superior camouflage, and the Ripper's obsession with Agent Graham is so obvious it's drawing attention from... undesirable sources. If Will can manipulate everything to his desired outcome, Hannibal could become the equal Will has always wanted.
If he wants to protect their fragile peace, it'll take a lot more than just Hannibal Lecter.
That's fine. After all, Will has never been able to stop himself at just one stray.

Summary
The unnerving but perhaps not entirely unexpected development of one Professor Will Graham, through the eyes of his students.
Excerpt: There were two ways to approach Professor Graham's forensics course. One could encounter his grouchy, unsociable teaching style with outrage and the unsettled feeling that the man was literally impossible to please, or one could play quirky professor bingo in between vigorous note-taking.
Maya found the latter to be a much more fulfilling experience.

Summary
Lucy sucks in a tight breath. She never expected to be dragged back. She didn’t think the Capitol wanted anything to do with her now that she’d won their little game.
But apparently she had made such an impression that they asked very nicely if she would sing at the opening of the 11th Hunger Games.
How could she have said anything but yes?

Summary
Dr Hannibal Lecter, Chesapeak Ripper and Serial Killer owned a Bentley. Used said Bentley to cart around the bodies of his victims and had thus far been uncaught. Of course that is if you didn’t count Will Graham, profiler and FBI Criminal Psychology Professor, discovering him when he was hiding a corpse of his own.
Fake Dating au because they need an alibi for murder.

Summary
“What is the meaning of this?” Will bit out. “Who the hell do you think you are? Do you have any idea who you’ve kidnapped?”
Hannibal’s breath caught in his throat.
The profiler’s voice was rich; deeper than he’d expected and heady as a glass of wine. His anger roughened the dulcet tones to a delicious growl, but Hannibal could listen to him speak for hours and never tire of the sound. The silence stretched for long moments before he realized he was staring, lost in thought. Hannibal shook his head and crossed his legs, focusing instead on Will’s questions.
“I take it that’s a no to the drink,” he replied smoothly, reaching for his own cup. “And you know very well who I am. We are in constant contention; it would be difficult to be unfamiliar.”
Hannibal Lecter, head of the crime syndicate of Baltimore, Maryland, has everything he could possibly want - that is, except peace. When the man who has been causing him not end of trouble asks for his help, the two of them, once thinking themselves in complete opposition, might find they have more in common than either could possibly imagine.
