    Summary

    Will finally gathers the courage to kiss Hannibal, only for Hannibal to stop him with careful hands and gentler intentions than Will knows how to trust.
    After it happens again, and then again, Will decides that Hannibal must have seen too much: too much inexperience, too much uncertainty, too much want.
    Hannibal finds him hours later in the balcony of his office and refuses to let the misunderstanding survive the night.

    Summary

    “You appear at once gentle and formidable,” says Hannibal. “Like a king laying judgement on his subjects. Your flesh bears the scars of battles won, evidence of your strength, yet those same scars mark you as human. Beautiful and fleeting in your mortality.”

    Will’s heart thuds against his ribs. He feels formidable. Power sits in his chest like a small molten sun, warming him from the inside out. He wants Hannibal to bow before him, to kiss his ring.

    What they’re doing now isn’t so far off from that, really.

    -

    While in prison, Hannibal draws Will from memory. His portraits are later published on TattleCrime. Will decides to let Hannibal draw him from life instead.

    “What?” Remus responded.

    “Prank him back.”

    —After Sirius perpetually embarrasses Remus in front of the entire school, Remus decides to enact his revenge by convincing the school Sirius is secretly enamored with him. Sirius diverts Remus's expectations when he starts to play along.
