“Angel of my life… my body, my blood, my soul, are all yours;”
– Victor Hugo, from The Complete Works; “ The Hunchback of Notre Dame,”
——————
It was easy to get lost in menial tasks.
You’d mastered the ability to slip into your thoughts as your hands diligently worked. Whether it was mending clothes, polishing candelabra, or even refilling prayer candles for all the tourists visiting the basilica.
In the summer, it was especially useful in order to manage the larger crowds — A sea of anonymous faces that quickly faded from memory. Bright shining eyes and rapacious hands reaching to touch things they shouldn’t; Always hungry for a taste of something holy. 
The pack of bodies made you anxious, their cloying scent overpowering the all-too-familiar myrrh and incense.  Their shrill, excitable voices could be especially grating in such a place, where echo was ever-present. Even more so after reminding them that a low volume was imperative, for such sacred spaces had to be respected.
It was a true test of your virtues, more often than not. Patience, especially, was one you were still working on, even after so many years. It proved to be the hardest to fully harness, no matter how much self-discipline was employed.
In repentance, you found yourself praying more often than not, the repetition of the words putting you in a meditative state.
Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God's love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide…
“Mi scusi?” A deep voice brought you back to the present, much too close for comfort.
Startled, you winced a little and quickly looked up. A tall, well-dressed man stood right in front of you, amusement at your reaction tugging at the corners of his full lips. He was handsome in a way that was reminiscent of Renaissance paintings; Like an aristocrat, or a fallen angel perhaps. 
“Si, signore?” You asked, keeping your voice low.
He gestured towards the candles. “May I?” 
You handed him one, already lit. His fingers just barely ghosted over yours in the exchange, and your breath caught. The small flame cast shadows on his angular face, giving him a more severe look. A bit macabre, too, in a way…
Don’t think such things. He is but a man.
“Grazie,” he said, the smile still not leaving his face.
“Prego.”
You averted your gaze, intent on resuming your work. He stepped to one side, looking over at the statue at the far end of the room — Bernini’s Ecstasy of St. Theresa.
“The pain was so severe that it made me utter several moans,” he recited. “The sweetness caused by this intense pain is so extreme that one cannot possibly wish it to cease, nor is one's soul content with anything but God.”
You followed his line of sight, and before you could stop yourself, you said. “You must see her up close.”
He looked back at you, tilting his head slightly to one side curiously. You tried to keep your eyes on the statue, still beautiful despite endless days of looking at it.
You cleared your throat, continuing almost absently. “There are many proofs of God’s love, but this one might be my favorite. We are most like Him in that through immense agony, we can become holy.”
Your gaze snapped to his, and you stared at each other in slight disbelief for a moment. Just what had compelled you to share such a thing? 
“Are you able to accompany me?” He asked. “I’d be delighted to hear more of your thoughts.”
That made you remember yourself, so you shook your head. “No, signore. Do go on, though. It really is a sight to behold.”
“Very well,” he nodded. “May I ask your name?”
You hesitated, but told him out of politeness. He repeated it slowly, as if savoring it on his tongue. Your traitorous eyes were drawn to the way his lips formed around it, and he didn’t fail to notice. 
Before you could even think of asking for his name in return, an elderly couple came up to you asking questions. You muttered a quick scusi in his direction as your attention shifted, both frustrated and relieved.
He lingered for just a moment longer before continuing on his way, and you forced yourself not to glance back at his retreating form.
Usually, the few brief conversations you had with visitors barely registered in your mind. Seldom did anyone really gain your interest, but on the rare occasion someone did, you had to immediately tamp down any inane desires.
For you, chastity often oscillated between being a cruel companion and a comforting blanket. There were times, in the darkest hour of night, when you couldn’t help but yearn for things you’d long lost. Sensations, images, smells… all vanished from existence.
You had not always walked the path of piety, but the days before you made that change were not ones you let yourself think about any other time. Especially not when those old feelings stirred like ashes in a charred hearth.
Once you were by yourself again, you caught another glimpse of him in the crowd; His long, sturdy frame was hard to miss. He was engrossed in his surroundings  — the gilded architecture, the magnificently carved marble, the myriad scenes of haloed saints soaring through the heavens.
You pulled your rosary out of your pocket, feeling the urge to resume your prayers. The smooth slide of the beads in your palm was usually reassuring, but you were too distracted to even conjure the words.
You squeezed it in your fist, the metal cross digging into your skin. Bright pain ran up your arm as it broke through, a rivulet of blood running through your middle and index fingers.
You released a breath as you relaxed your fist. It was a small penance for a momentary slip, serving also as a reminder of your vows. Pain was the best teacher, after all. It was one of the first things you learned when you converted.
Covertly, you wiped your hand clean with a handkerchief. You stared at the splotch of crimson on the white fabric, slightly entranced by the mundanity of your mortal blood.
Out of your notice, he observed your every move. He wanted to approach once more, to get a whiff of your life’s essence — A sharp note of copper, slightly sweet and endlessly enticing.
But he knew that, like any good hunter who had zeroed in on prey, he had to bide his time.
————
The setting sun streaked the sky in swaths of pastel, orange and violet and pink. The last of its golden rays illuminated the marble floors, setting ablaze the portrait of the praying skeleton.
His eyes lingered on this detail as he silently walked in, his long shadow dragging across it. 
Most of the visitors had left by that time, but a few stragglers lingered for evening prayers. He was delighted to find that one of those stragglers was you, still unaware of his presence.
Your knees were on the worn cushion of the praying kneeler, your clasped hands resting on the bench in front of you. Your eyes were closed, face tilted up slightly in quiet reverence.
He saw the hem of your habit had ridden up a little, revealing a small portion of your calf. Just a sliver of flesh, really, but not one you were conscious of showing. 
Glancing around, he approached slowly, bending down to fix it. You were mid Hail Mary when you felt the fabric being pulled, which made you stumble over the words.
You stiffened, but didn’t move. Instead, you peered from the corner of your eye to see a familiar figure straightening to his full height.
How curious that your prayers seemed to summon him, even if he was not who you called on.
Or was it?
A day had passed and you’d tried as best as you could to banish that whole initial interaction from your thoughts. His lupine features had begun to blur in your mind’s eye, the sound of his voice losing itself in the din of the crowd. What little you slept, you didn’t even dream.
But now that he was back, looming right behind you, you were on edge again. Shakily, you finished the last string of prayers you had left on your rosary. 
Then you did the sign of the cross and rose slowly, turning to face him. Your eyes were darker in the low light, doe-like and fathomless. But there was no naïveté in their depths.
“I hope I didn’t offend you by taking such liberties, Sorella,” he said. 
“Finding me or touching me?” You challenged.
He blinked, stunned at being put on the spot. "I figured you must value your modesty and didn’t wish to see you embarrassed. Forgive me.”
You looked him over, assessing. He seemed sincere, if a little clueless. The look didn’t quite fit him, but you wanted to believe it all the same.
“Thank you,” you said finally, glancing over your shoulder. “Come to see the statue once more? I told you it was striking.”
“Indeed, but not quite here for it,” he admitted. “I was unable to stop thinking of your assessment.”
“Oh, I assure you, I’m not nearly as interesting as you might believe.”
“I beg to differ.”
Your eyes narrowed slightly, and you noticed how quickly the light was waning outside.
“Expecting a private tour, then? It’s rather late for that. Doors are shutting to the public shortly.”
“Perhaps I can help you in some way or another. Think of me as a volunteer.”
You huffed in amusement. “Are you trying to get me in trouble?”
He smiled, gesturing around him. “We have God’s eyes on us here. Nothing to fear.”
Why you were even entertaining this, you weren’t sure. It’d been a while since you’d been intrigued by anyone — anything, really — and being the object of someone’s intrigue felt nicer than you wanted to admit. 
You were surrounded by people all day, but that didn’t make you feel any less lonely. Not that solitude really bothered you… for the most part.
You were only human, after all. Full of faults you were meant to atone for.
“Very well, then. Usually, there’s more help, but it seems tonight it’s just us. Start with the candles, will you?”
And so he started extinguishing each candle as you took one last lap around the structure, making sure everything was in place and every last visitor was gone. The two of you worked like a well-oiled machine, covertly glancing at each other whenever you crossed paths. Soon enough, you were locking the doors of the basilica.
Silvery moonlight and a few orange street lamps were the only illuminations outside. The stars above were like the million eyes of an archangel keeping watch over the nocturnal creatures. That evening, it felt like being closely examined, waiting for any slip-up to impart judgement.
You nodded at the night guard as you handed him the keys, and then you descended the steps along with your new companion.
“May I walk you home? It’s not safe to walk alone in the dark,” he said.
 You raised an eyebrow. “Something tells me you’re not really asking.”
He smirked at your cleverness. “I wouldn’t forgive myself if something were to happen to you, when I could have prevented it.”
You wanted to roll your eyes at that, but you opted for being polite. You’d walked the same path many times and had long stopped being afraid of the darkness. What lurked in it, on the other hand…
“I am not so proud that I’d refuse kindness,” you said finally, nodding for him to follow as you turned around. “Wary as I may seem around it.”
“I’ve noticed,” he commented, falling into step next to you. “Has your God been cruel to you?”
You shook your head. “No,  but men have. His most perfect creation, indeed.”
He smiled wryly, enjoying the sarcastic venom in your tone.  
“We can appreciate divinity by bearing witness to imperfection,” he said. “It helps us relate to one another, sometimes on an unconscious level.” 
You nodded slowly, peering over at his profile curiously. There was something truly mystifying about him — as if he was someone that only existed in intervals of time, like the cover of night — which was perhaps what kept drawing you in. 
You walked through the cobblestone streets, speaking in hushed voices. You discussed things like art and poetry, quickly veering into more philosophical topics. His mind was like a maze, clearly difficult to navigate, but you did not feel discouraged.
You did always like a good challenge, even if it wasn’t good for you.
All too soon,  you reached the old wooden door of the small convent. He noticed there was a small smudge of soot on your jaw, so he pulled his handkerchief out of his breast pocket and gestured to your face.
“May I?”
You nodded, frowning a little in confusion. He stepped closer, reaching up and gently wiping off the smudge. You forced yourself not to blush, barely breathing, keeping your eyes averted.
“There we go,” he murmured, pulling back and extending the handkerchief towards you. “Here, you can keep this until you get a chance to wash yours.”
“My…?” You started, but then his words clicked in your mind. 
Your heart began thundering in your chest at the realization, beads of sweat forming on the back of your neck. You took it all the same, finally looking up at him with wide eyes.
You were met with the smirking face of a jackal – a beast turned man. The lamb in you knew this, even if his demeanor was outwardly friendly. The look in his amber eyes was so ardent you couldn’t tear your gaze away, rooted to the spot. 
Had anyone ever looked at you like that? You couldn’t recall, and it didn’t seem to matter.
“What is your name?” You asked breathlessly. “I realize I never asked.”
“Hannibal,” he said. “Doctor Hannibal Lecter.”
————
Much later into the night, you were still unable to sleep. You tossed and turned, the sheets sticking to your feverish skin. You were plagued by contradictions,  internally waging a war against a feeling that had suddenly yawned open in the pit of your stomach. Something too much like hunger, sharp around the edges. 
With a frustrated sigh, you shifted onto your back and stared at the ceiling. You were no stranger to restlessness, but this time, you couldn’t be bothered to kneel beside the bed and pray. There was something far more pressing in the forefront of your mind. 
It was that look, like he could see beneath the veil of your piety — through you, even. He’d seen you punish yourself, too, which was an intimate act all on its own. A subtle art that you’d perfected over time, or at least thought you had.
And still, you could tell he liked what he saw.
Yanking the covers off of yourself, you padded over to your desk, pulling the handkerchief out of your satchel. The material was much finer than anything you’d ever owned, gliding smoothly in your hands. 
Gingerly, you ran your fingers over his embroidered initials, faintly smelling a note of something rich and earthy, like bergamot or perhaps clover. 
Your eyes fluttered shut as you brought it closer to your face, absolutely entranced. It was at these late hours that consequences seemed nonexistent. The truth seemed less frightening when shrouded in darkness, with only the moon witnessing your downfall.
You brought it back to the bed with you, lying down on your back once more. With the silken fabric pressed against your face, you inhaled slowly. The linen shift you wore to sleep rode up past your hips, exposing your legs and part of your lower abdomen.
Your fingers moved on their own, barely dipping into the hem of your underwear before stopping. A sensation akin to electricity crackled inside your chest, seizing your muscles. Blood roared in your ears as your heart galloped frantically. 
Was this what being on the edge of damnation was like? Too much like seeing your reflection on the forbidden fruit, bright red and infinitely tempting?
Your teeth scratching the skin, about to sink into the sweetest of knowledge…
As if scalded, you yanked your hand back, sitting up on the bed. You felt as if air had been squeezed out of your lungs, panting harshly, clawing at your throat. 
The room felt unbearably hot, the walls seemingly closing in on you. You stumbled out of bed and gripped the edge of your desk, knees buckling. The pulsing between your legs quickly simmered into a dull throb, shame, and guilt following in its wake. 
You were being tested, you had to be. What else could explain such recklessness? 
At least you’d gotten yourself away from the cliffside and could still get back on the right path. Surely, the Shepherd would not shun one of his lambs for almost being lured by a wolf.
But how could you ever explain that inane desire of yours to be devoured, ravished, utterly adored in your last gasping breaths? 
He was not blind to the way you’d bared your throat at the first glimpse of fangs.
This time, retribution would require more bloodshed — a lingering sort of discipline. After all, what was one more scar to add to the latticework of pink, raised skin all over your back?
You undid the laces at your throat and pulled your slip off, letting it fall to the floor unceremoniously.  You reached into the bottom drawer of your small dresser, finding purchase amidst the few austere garments you owned.
Your hands no longer shook as you gripped the twisted handle of the cat o’nine tails — it was salvation at your fingertips, and you held on so tightly it left indentations on your palm. You focused your gaze on the wooden cross on the wall, prayers for mercy at your lips. 
And the only other thought in your mind at that moment was ‘Fifteen lashes should suffice.’
——
Perhaps you’d gone overboard. 
In the sobering light of day, you lay on your stomach next to the open window, listening to the trilling of birds. You felt ill with the aftermath of your slight overindulgence of masochism.
Earlier that morning, you’d feigned stomach pain and nausea. The latter wasn’t too far from the truth, and the pallor of your face – which was also dotted with cold sweat – helped sell the lie. 
None of the Sisters – much less the madre superiora –  were privy to your violent bouts of self-discipline. Not only would they disapprove, but… it would lead to situations you did not want to bring upon yourself. 
You were just drifting off to sleep, exhaustion finally overpowering you, when you heard a soft knock on the door. You pulled the blanket back upon yourself, hiding the incriminating evidence.
“Si?”  You called softly, shifting your head to face the door.
It swung open to reveal the madre superiora herself, accompanied by… Oh, merciful God. 
Hannibal tensed at the doorway, his nostrils flaring as he scented the coppery tang permeating the small room. Though the window had been open for some time, your essence still lingered – a narcotic in its own right. He kept his composure as his mouth watered, and his Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed hard.
“How are you feeling, Sorella?”  the madre inquired, concern all over her gentle, weathered features. 
“Still about the same,” you said, attempting to keep your eyes on her and not on her companion – none other than the man who’d tried to coax you away from the Lord’s pasture.
“Doctor Lecter here said he helped you home yesterday. He expressed concern for your well-being and has offered to examine you.”
“Free of any charge, of course, madre,” he assured. “I merely want to help however I can. If that is okay with you, that is.”
You merely nodded, not trusting your voice at that moment.
“Your generosity shall be returned doubly, Doctor,” the madre said with a smile. “I shall give you some privacy. Please let me know if you need anything.”
And with that, she left the room, shutting the door behind her. 
Hannibal approached slowly, as if you were a skittish animal he didn’t want to spook. You eyed him peripherally, wary all the same. He knelt at your side, taking a moment to observe you. 
“I was worried at your absence today,” he said as a way of explaining his being there, voice low. “I hear it is some sort of stomach bug?”
“Not quite,” you murmured. “It is something far more… visible.”
He slightly tilted his head to the side in curiosity. “May I take a look at you?”
“How can I refuse the most  generous doctor?” 
You shifted your shoulders to indicate he should pull down the sheet. He reached out to do so, finding some resistance. The fabric clung to your wounds, which had crusted as scabs began to form. As he had to use a little more force, you sucked in a breath through your teeth.
Upon seeing what you had done to yourself, he was momentarily flummoxed. His eyes trailed over the angry red welts, appreciating the macabre artistry. The scent of blood was stronger now; A few of the wounds had reopened and were weeping crimson. He stifled the sudden desire to catch one of the drops with his tongue.
“What have we here?” he asked.
“The consequence of sin.”
“And what sin might that be?”
You pursed your lips, refusing to give voice to your faults. Your silence only compelled his curiosity further, but he decided not to press. That didn’t mean he wasn’t good at getting the answers he wanted, though. 
 “I was unaware such practices were still… observed.”
“Not usually. It is my best-kept secret,” your eyes fluttered closed as he pulled the sheet further down, until the barest glimpse of the top of your ass was visible. “Something for my own.”
His response was a thoughtful hum, and he stood to get some supplies from a small bag he’d brought.
When he knelt once more, you could smell alcohol. “Let’s clean these up then, shall we?”
You nodded, attempting to brace yourself. The lacerations on your back sang with agony as he began to dab at them, your teeth clenched so hard you feared they might crack. Still, his touch was so tender — almost to the point of reverence — that you thought you might weep. 
“We are most like Him in that through immense agony, we can become holy,” he quoted, perhaps attempting to distract you. “Is that not what you said? I admire your determination.”
As the sting just barely began to dissipate, you could speak again.
“Think I am redeemed in the eyes of Heaven?”
“Perhaps,” he said. “In my eyes, at least, you are.”
Near delirious with a pain that made your brain feel like glass — and that cursed longing you suddenly couldn’t tamp down — you arched closer to his hands as he dressed the wounds. 
“What do you gain from all this?” You ventured, needing to know the answer.
“Must I gain something?”
“I can’t seem to find another explanation.”
He was quiet for a moment. “I am merely intrigued by you. I can’t help being drawn. Can you blame me?”
“Perhaps I just don’t understand what makes me so interesting.”
“In time you will see. I will make sure of it.”

Hi, so, I need some help finding a ao3 Hannibal fic if anyone knows what I’m talking about.
It was a post-fall fic specifically about Will’s relationship with the scar on his abdomen. He talked about his feelings toward it now as well as in the past, and there was some exploration of what it meant to him and Hannibal. I think there was some section about how he never wanted Molly to touch it or like didn’t touch it himself or something like that. I’m pretty sure it was multi-chapter if that’s helpful at all.
Anyways, please let me know if you remember something similar or know what I’m talking about!

Title: The Entropy of Mac and Cheese
Pairing: Nigel (Charlie Countryman)/Adam Raki (Adam)
AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40151664
Rating: Mature
Summary: Nigel and Darko leave Romania in search of greener pastures (in a ‘Beavis and Butt-head Do America’ sort of way). Will they be able to keep their cover, pretend to work a 9 to 5, and set up their lucrative enterprise at the same time? The plot loosely follows both movies except Adam never met Beth and he still works at the office in NYC. Thank you for reading/commenting/kudos! 💖
A/N: Idk why I love this idea of Nigel and Darko as the “two bumbling henchmen,” but I do. They’re good at their jobs, but they’re also idiots lol. I’d love to know what you all thought of the story, and if I should turn it into a series or something?

Okay, you suggested the idea of Mr. Big Hanibal being old college buddies, but imagine the same for Viceroy and Steven. Sure he may have been an evil scientist, but I could see the two still being buds back then.
Also, I'm guessing during the midst of this crossover adventure, Howard and Huggy would be on their own misadventure.
Oh yeah, a youtuber named Mr. Multiverse mentioned this when he proposed a fanfiction idea on his channel about Wordgirl vs Randy like Batman vs Superman, but with out all the death and gritty stuff. He also talked about Mr. Big and Hannibal McFist being old friends and it was funny how Leslie and Viceroy interacted. But yeah I can picture Steven and Viceroy being old college buddies. Steven probably needed to take a few classes at Mad Science University (MSU) where he met Viceroy there as he needed those course for a degree or something. Oh yes, Howard and Huggy would be straight up bonding.
here is the link to Mr. Multiverse's video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7h9oHZ5m6I
Angst thing to mention - it was seeing Randy's bond with Howard which contributed to Wordgirl getting stanked in my original idea.

Hey uh...I know that there is already a million posts about the importance of commenting on and promoting fanfiction and shit but like I just started working on this one fic again after a year long hiatus and a  lot about my writing and vision has changed and I would really appreciate some feedback on the last two chapters of Broken teacups, Broken minds if anyone wants to revist it, or just catch up on the latest update.
i know some of the tags and warnings might be indicative of one thing or another, and I want to state that this isn’t an underage shipping fic nor a rape fic, although these topics are touched on pertaining to the childhoods of Hannibal and Margot. This IS an abuse fic, in which Hannibal takes advantage of Clarice in a non-sexual manner (you will understand when you read the fic, more details and spoilers under the read more) 
This fic deals with Clarice having a minor mental breakdown and regressing to a very helpless childlike state, similar to how she is under Hanibal’s hypnosis in the end of Hannibal, except hannibal really didnt have anything to do with it this time. He does however ignore everyone’s advice,professional or otherwise, kidnaps Clarice, and forces her into his own care. However Hannibal is clearly not capable of giving the care she needs to get well,, and it is all about Hannibal having to face his own weird buried hang ups, including traumatic memories pertaining to his own upbringing and time under Chilton’s care. In the second half Clarice does regain her ‘right mind’ and agency, splitting from Hannibal and absolutely furious if not traumatized the experience. This forces Hannibal to really place his behavior under the microscope as he practically loses everyone close to him out of sheer disgust with his actions. I am think Clarice and ardelia are going to get together and maybe Barney and Hannibal.
