Summary
A modern day Master/servant Hannigram AU. This idea came to me whilst working (literally on my hands and knees applying gold leaf) in one of the extraordinary Cheshire mansions I find myself in surprisingly regularly. I am continually surprised by the inexplicably loyal staff managers (nobody ever says the word BUTLER - but they are), proudly servile and selfless.
Will inherits such a property in North West England, complete with staff and an interesting sort-of-butler who enjoys his work. REALLY enjoys his work.
Also inspired by Jeeves and Wooster which I'm currently re-reading and loving, and all butlers everywhere. Oh, and Men On Edge :)
Encouragement, ideas and pointers have really helped, thanks to:

Summary
“I have the talent,” Will said, “I do not have the means to have it seen. Signore, you have both.” Will’s smile returned with a subtle edge, a narrowing of his eyes that made Hannibal think, again, of the man’s likeness to Ganymede, of perhaps how the two would share a fate in this studio.
“I beg you to remember, that you were once an apprentice yourself. And consider.”
______
In this Hannibal AU set in Renaissance Florence, Signore Lecter finds himself inexplicably drawn to the young English painter he takes on as his apprentice. Finding the passion for his art renewed by the presence of Will, he is swept up by the desire to capture the young man...

Summary
“Who the fuck is this?”
Nigel stared down at the bowed head of the man tied to the chair in his flat, utterly perplexed. He couldn't be anymore than twenty two, with dark curls, pale skin and eyes that were too big for his face. He was very slight, hunching in on himself, with wrists that look like they could break under the pressure of the cable ties.
~
Adam falls victim to a case of mistaken identity when one of Nigel's goons takes him for a man who owes Nigel a lot of money. Nigel is not impressed.

Summary
H and Will have survived the Fall. They live together as Thomas and Eirik Buckley on an island in the Sarvia Archipelago, in the chilly Baltic sea. As time goes on, they use their pseudonyms to help explore their real relationship. (see 'Are the riders coming?' and 'How My Heart Behaves' in particular, but sorry, it's kind of all the way through the series!) Thanks as always, to any one reading!! xxxxxxxxx zigzag-wanderer on Tumblr. Ps just wanted to thank my kind anon who commissioned the sublime beatricenius to depict chapter five. Thank you both I'm in shock!!!!!!!!!xxxxxxxxxxx
