Hannibal's hands are steady and sure, bringing transformation to those in his influence, all in the pursuit of the beauty of darkness. It takes a certain aesthetic to appreciate his work, to understand the elevation of those he chooses to slay, to display, to serve and consume. Will's transformation is as one who appreciates the beauty, rather than the display of beauty.
"Luckily we'll have some time before we're expected anywhere," Hannibal says in an off-hand tone, a throw-away comment for anyone who might be listening, and a deeper one for Will. Hannibal is fairly certain that their potential pursuers won't come even close to figuring out where they've gone for some time, that they're going to be safe, free to relax and enjoy Paris and each other.
Hannibal goes quiet and nods toward the aisle, where the flight attendants are pushing the food and drink cart, offering the passengers fruit and cheese and crackers, a light meal before landing. Hannibal smiles and accepts the food, asking for a cup of coffee with it, a little bit of caffeine to keep him alert as they make their way to their sanctum sanctorum.
