Summary
The Will that emerges from the sea isn't exactly the same as the one that pulled them into it. This Will is brutal and dark, delighting in blood as much as Hannibal delights in him. His grip on reality is tenuous—splintered and fractal, glorious in its disarray.
Or, Will finally loses himself, and Hannibal gathers the pieces.

Summary
Will doesn’t sleep because he can’t. The bruised and bloody things in his head press too heavily on him when he tries. He spends hours trying to push back the night through sheer force of will. He bargains with the sun, offers it bits and pieces of him. Shards of bone, bits of flesh. His body only; he never offers his mind. Even he knows it isn’t good for much these days.
Will is not okay. Neither is Hannibal.

Summary
Will gets better. He takes his medication. Most days he doesn’t accuse Hannibal of trying to poison him. It feels less like a truce and more like purgatory, and that’s where he meets Adam Raki.
Hannibal's idea of a psychiatric intervention probably saved Will's life, but Will can't forgive him for it. He still feels the cuffs around his skin and the bitter bite of antipsychotics forced down his throat. He finds a way to cope with the trauma, and it has to do with a sweet boy with a kind smile who doesn't know what monsters are—not yet.

Summary
Adam never paid much attention to the news before. He pays even less attention now, but where before it was disinterest, now it’s self-preservation. His name is kept out of the headlines. All they say is that a 28 year old man was abducted and sexually assaulted by notorious serial killer and cannibal Hannibal Lecter and his accomplice, former FBI special agent Will Graham.
Adam is fine. If he doesn't leave his house and still jumps at every shadow, well. He's dealing with it. He's fine. It's fine, really. That's what he tells himself, until he meets a gruff Romanian with a dark past of his own who might even be able to make it true. Nigel is sweet and kind and everything that Adam needs.
But someone else is keeping watch over Adam, sending menacing gifts and protecting him from afar. After all, you don't just abandon family.
