fic rec lists I've started:

will graham is a FREAK (canon)

will is in love with both Hannibal and the Chesapeake ripper

fun premises

hannibal is playing evil 4D chess and Will is living in a rom com

scenes where Will starts dating Hannibal and the people around him notice that he's looking less like living death

smut but its also a character study

AU world where everyone is super fucked up but somehow Will and Hannibal end up being the Most Fucked Up ™

HANNIGRAM FICS THAT LOOK MY MENTAL ILLNESS IN THE EYE AND SAY. THIS IS THE WORLD. IT IS EXACTLY HOW IT IS MEANT TO BE. AND IT IS BEAUTIFUL IN ITS MUNDANITY. 

This is a subjective one, my other lists are tropes and scenes.

Each According to its Kind by Chaparral_Crown

“Will does the only reasonable thing that someone fresh out of a mental hospital with no support system does - he leaves, and goes on a road trip to the Pacific Northwest.”

This features a conversation between will and his dad that I’ve thought about often:

-How do you get even with someone who took something from you?

-That depends. Did you get it back? Was it valuable to you, or are you just mad because it was yours? You’ll lose something either way, so think hard.  

The Man who Would be Will by Barchorante

"When Will wakes up in a hospice in Cuba, he does not know his name, how he got there or what kind of a life he'd had. He only has the rude man from the hospice to help him navigate this new existence, and that man is extremely rude. Until he isn't.

OR: Hannibal believes that memories alone make a person, and Will proves that he does not need memories to remember."

My Heart's an Autoclave by gnawingsuspicion

"After the fall, Chiyoh ferries a very broken Will and Hannibal to a borrowed safehouse in Iceland. With nothing to do, nowhere to go and the depths of winter all around, boredom strikes. Will, naturally, finds a cheap tattoo machine in the closet and does what Will Graham does best -- cause problems for himself."

I’ve spent the last year insane. The upside is that I have read a TON of hannigram fics. Stay tuned for the hyper specific.
