I just went and subscribed to your story. But I understand the obsession. That show had everything I love: an outstanding aesthetics, damaged characters, thoughtful storyline... and the most twisted, most poignant love story ever :)
The eerie imagery got me first. I just love all the little manipulations and what ifs that keep popping all over it--what if Abigail got to live? What if Will descended fully into madness and never came back?
A big one rolling around right now is What if Hannibal never became a cannibalizing serial killer? Frankly, he's so rigid and controlling of his environment, so alone and so supernaturally brilliant I can't see him ever being a man who isn't fucked up in some way. Will has his issues, but Hannibal is the shockingly beautiful disaster.
I hope you like the story--I can't promise it won't be the only one, since the above concept is making me want to AU all over the place...
I feel obsession happening. Not necessarily a bad thing :D :D
Had to edit this post to say more--sorry!!
I found Hannibal's killing of Abigail so heartbreaking--he was a monster desperate for a family and Will's reluctance ultimately broke Hannibal as well. He took no pleasure out of killing Abigail and his dream of creating this perfect Monster Family was crushed.
Ahh, so many things to think about! Obsessive Love!
