This was good fun last time, so let's give it another spin.

Link me to a fic you've written, and I'll tell you something I like about it! c:

All fandoms and original fic welcome - though if you're going to link me to your 300,000 word magnum opus, a nominated chapter would be nice.

Oh my, I'm afraid this is too much to resist!

I don't want to overburden you, though. Why not have a Hannibal drabble?

[sideways]

Why thank you, I think I will.

The dialogue in this sounds like it came straight from the show, which is extra impressive for a show with such twisty, surreal conversations O:

Thank you! :D I do love the way they talk. Hannibal is...such a constructed piece, but it's so beautifully done.

[sideways]

"Constructed" is a great way to put it. It's almost more of a play, in some ways!

[sunlit_stone]

Yes! Or sometimes I think of it as almost as a kind of living diorama, everything carefully and exquisitely placed just so. ...A 4D diorama, I guess :P Or, Hmm, maybe the thing to say is that everything feels beautifully choreographed, even the dialogue...

I was going to send you one of my original flashfics, and then I recalled that you were into Hannibal, so - here's probably the best thing that's come out of this year for me.

You should definitely also link me to the original flashfic. (I'm not actually that into Hannibal, heh - it was a bit too gory for me. But I'm familiar with it through various friends who were fans, and I liked what I saw of poor Will c:)

I can see why you're so happy with this one! I really liked the part where Hannibal talks about wishing he'd been given the moniker of shrike - "fierce, yet unassuming in that fierceness", and Will immediately internally being like You Have Never Been Unassuming In Your Life.

You also walk the line of Will's feelings well; tilting one moment into the thrill of Hannibal's favour, the next dealing with the "sick fury" of his horrible actions. The love/hate push and pull that defines their whole... thing.
