Summary
Will only wants one thing for his birthday, really, but he's scared to ask for it. Scared because of how much he wants it, and because he knows Hannibal doesn't do anything halfway. He wants to be used - to be taken whenever, wherever, without having to think or talk about it or be coddled in the aftermath.
He gets his wish.

Summary
“A morning coat?” Will asked, laughing incredulously. “What the fuck is a morning coat?”
“The fashion of morning dress was favored by nobility in the early 20th century as a mode of dress that was less formal, but still maintained a certain modicum of dignity. The morning coat was originally meant to be worn while on one’s morning ride, but eventually came to be the norm for daytime social functions. Particularly weddings. Knize has been making them for many years, coming to fame as the tailors of the Hapsburg family in the 1800s.”
Will’s brow furrowed as he tried to imagine how one came to fame for something like a coat, but he didn’t ask further. “You and your clothes.” he said instead with a shake of his head.

Summary
“Love and hate are not so dissimilar,” Hannibal begins. “They are both passionate, intimate ways to regard another human being. They are often mistaken for opposites, when indifference is the opposite of both love and hate.”
