One possible motive could be his obsession with Will. Hannibal sees Will as a unique individual, almost like a kindred spirit in some ways. He might kidnap Will to have him all to himself, away from the outside world that he believes corrupts or misunderstands Will.
Well, his motive might be related to his twisted sense of love. In the context of fanfiction, Hannibal could think that by kidnapping Will, he is protecting him. He may view the world as a dangerous place for Will, and his actions are a way to keep Will safe in his own, very abnormal way. Also, it could be a power play. He wants to show that he has the power to take Will whenever he wants, asserting his dominance over Will.
Perhaps it's a power play. Hannibal is a character who enjoys being in control. By kidnapping Clarice, he asserts his dominance over her. He can manipulate the situation, make her dependent on him in a way, and show that he has the upper hand. It's like a game to him, and Clarice is the most interesting piece on the board.
Will might initially be in shock. He trusts Hannibal to a certain extent, so the betrayal of being kidnapped would be a huge blow. He could be angry and try to fight back against Hannibal.
It depends. If the fanfic has a compelling plot, well-developed characters, and stays true to the essence of the original, it might be recommended.
It's possible. A successful 'X Hannibal' fanfic would need to have a compelling storyline, well-developed characters, and maybe some unexpected twists. If it manages to do all that, it could gain a lot of fans.
At first, Will would be in shock. But as time passes, he would start to analyze Hannibal's motives. He is a profiler, after all. He might try to use his psychological knowledge to manipulate Hannibal in return. He could also go through periods of anger, resenting Hannibal for taking away his freedom. And there might be moments of confusion as he tries to figure out if there is any part of Hannibal's actions that could be considered 'caring' in his warped way.
One common theme is the exploration of their complex relationship. It's often about the push - and - pull between them, the love - hate dynamic. Another theme is the psychological aspect. Fanfics usually dig deep into their minds, like how Will's empathic abilities interact with Hannibal's psychopathic nature.
Perhaps Fleur is being controlled or influenced by a dark force. In the Harry Potter universe, there are many dark magic entities that could manipulate someone into kidnapping Harry. It could be that she is under the Imperius Curse or some other form of mind control. Another reason could be that she has some sort of personal vendetta against Harry or those close to him, and kidnapping him is her way of getting revenge. She might think that Harry has wronged her in some way, whether it's real or just in her deluded perception.
Clarice could also become very defiant. She is a strong - willed character. So, instead of cowering, she might constantly challenge Hannibal, trying to get under his skin and make him make mistakes. This could lead to some intense mental battles between them within the fanfiction.
Well, usually these fanfics focus on the complex relationship between Hannibal and Will, exploring their emotional depth and the tension between them.
