[Hmm, hmm, hmm. Abigail hadn't been shy about it, he'd read some of her conversations. Though he didn't quite...get it. He can try to rely on "because she's not dead, that's why" as opposed to give out more personal details. Try.]

The last I knew, she'd been murdered. No one would see her again. The dead do not come back where I'm from. She's alive here and that's how it needs to stay. She's not a threat to you, Danger. At all.

[Yes, poor Abigail Hobbs is totally defenseless, definitely. She in no way killed and helped hide a full-grown man. Nope. Will doesn't know that, that's silly.]

Acknowledged.
I am unconvinced that she is not a threat to me.
Given the nature of individuals from your universe.
But I have no intention to harm her.
Does that set you at ease, Will Graham?

I wouldn't be so quick to judge my entire universe based on the sampling you've got here.

[No, no, this is really a nice sampling of their universe to judge it on, honestly. It's a good one. He knows it.]

It does set me at ease a little, yes. If you ever find yourself with intentions to harm her, could you tell me about that, too? Before you act on them?

I have observed a trend that would be unwise to ignore.
You humans have a saying: "Better safe than sorry."
But either way, I highly doubt that I am the individual you should be most concerned with in regards to Abigail's safety.

One of our better sayings. Do you have anyone in mind when you say it like that?

[Part of him is expecting something like

Yes, Will Graham. You.

in return. Freddie Lounds is a hell of a drug.]

We live in a community of superpowered individuals, Will Graham.
All threats from your universe aside, this is not a safe place.
You and I have an understanding.
Perhaps you should be more attentive to those with whom you have a less amicable relationship.

I cannot think of anyone here I, specifically, am less than amicable with that could present a problem that can't be handled. And we already spoke.

[He might not have a large social circle, but the only person he's less than amicable with here is...well, Will doesn't think he can't be dealt with. Hannibal and he were willing to ignoring family and friends mourning the loss of two murdered siblings for Abigail. Freddie Lounds is...well, Freddie Lounds. The three of them have got this on lock, if the only problem is someone he has issues with.

He thinks.]

I trust the people from my world when it comes to understanding the importance of Abigail Hobbs. I trust them to know that being a threat to her is very unwise as long as I'm here.

[And Hannibal, but he doesn't know to what extent yet. Oops.]

Has someone not from my world mentioned me to you in a way that makes you think they'd do something just because they find me less than amicable towards them?

[have people been talking shit]

I am not currently aware of any threats towards you or Abigail Hobbs that does not originate from your own universe, Will.
I have an interest in the girl, however.
You can rest assured that I will be paying attention.

[Her wording...she has to mean him, doesn't she? Freddie's damage is done through written word, and he highly doubts she's talked about the time she got someone shot in the head and Abigail nearly abducted. What threat Chilton could be isn't physical, and he doubts Gideon wants to get involved further in a mess that involves Will Graham. Hannibal is sturdy, respectable, the best of all of them.

Will's that shaggy, unshaven mess that killed her dad. Who else could it be?]

That's good to hear. Thank you, Danger. What are you doing next weekend? The one after? Want to try that fishing trip?

[ There's a calculating pause on her end before she answers, like she wants to know what motivates him to ask her. But, instead: ]

Yes.
I am willing to participate in the activity of fishing with you, as we discussed.
My schedule is relatively flexible-- I will adjust my work load as necessary to accommodate our trip.

[She may be something (someone) that never would have existed in his world, but with enough exposure...she might become as easy to read as everyone else.

Most everyone else.

He's unaware of how off he's been all along.]

Both weekends are good with me. Whatever you prefer, that's what we'll do. The areas I use aren't very populated. We won't likely run into anyone.

[Chilton, he means. Him and his Goddamn yacht rentals.]

Next weekend then, if that is acceptable to you.
It will be an opportunity for us to become better acquainted.

[The reply takes a lot longer than the others, because Will just realized something.]

That swearing in ceremony is this weekend, up here. So is the Sunday after that one good for you? Shop's always closed on Sunday.

[He's not saying he's going to the ceremony.

But if Abigail's going, well.

Will is going to be there if he likes it or not.]

[ And a little curious pause of her own: ]

As you wish, Will Graham.
I have no desire to inconvenience you.

[Isn't she sweet.]

I have no desire to inconvenience you either, Danger. [Not without extreme cause, of course.] Meet me at the shop, say 10? 11? And we'll go from there.

[She might know where it is already, but he sends her directions anyway. It's only polite.]
