I'm curious what you meant by Will sees Hannibal's aggressions to his body in a different way than a normal person would. Could you elaborate because I agree but couldn't put it into the proper words

To a “normal” person, every violent action from Hannibal would evoke fear, a primal urge to flee, or at the very least, a confrontation, a demand for accountability (he fails every time). Yet Will has never once framed Hannibal’s actions in such terms, never once called attention to the pain inflicted upon him to claim victimhood. His relationship with Hannibal is not bound by a desire for justice. Will’s indifference to who Hannibal kills, as long as it doesn’t affect him directly (and even those he seems to dismiss quite easily).

Will has a deep obsession with Hannibal’s attention.

To Will, the marks on his body are not scars of suffering, they are proof of Hannibal’s interest, his desire, a testimony of his importance in his life. Will even seeks validation from Bedelia, asking her to confirm, which is when she says that “Hannibal likes that he is marked in such a way”. He wants to be the one that survives Hannibal, which is why he has such a loud resentment towards Bedelia, as she she too survived but was left unscathed. To Will, this suggested some type of inferiority in the way Hannibal sees Bedelia and him (“why did you not hurt her?”).

His perception of love is distorted, twisted in its very foundation. To Will, love is not tenderness or sweetness; it is not the warm embrace of affection. Love is a proving ground. If you have not seen me at my worst, how can you claim to love me? If we have not scarred each other, how can we be sure our love is real? If you have not done everything in your power to hurt me, how can I know I still want you, even after this? If love is always soft and kind, then how could I trust I actually want it? Love, to Will, must endure through pain, blood, and loss, only then can it be certain, only then does it prove itself worthy.
