Summary
Hannibal has always been self-assured. He knows that the rest of the world is often beneath and it is up to him to shape the people around him as he saw fit. After all, the world is full of ugly people and they fill the world with ugliness by living in it. So, Hannibal considers it as his job to elevate them from their stations through violence or through manipulation. If God can do it, why can't he? If God can commit so much cruelty and still be worshipped for it then, why can't he? And if God, had been kind as the people claim to be then, He would have stopped Hannibal. But God doesn't seem to be interested in playing saviour. If anything, He keeps rewarding his hedonistic lifestyle and has even provided him with a True Mate, Will to navigate life through. So why should he stop?
But what if, God had not been as silent as Hannibal believed him to be and had been evening Hannibal's score by inflicting pain on his most precious possession? What will Hannibal do when he comes face to face with the reality of his 'Becoming'? What if Hannibal is questioned through Mischa?Set in Season 2 but does not follow the timeline or the episode order.
