I've Been Emotionally Slutty (shown Someone I Am Capable Of Human Feelings) Lately, I Fear.

I did some research that you might find interesting. I was very interested in how much Will and Hannibal earn per month.

After consulting a few sites I came to the conclusion that an FBI profiler earns ~6000-7000$/month. Will is also a teacher and it turns out that's better paid than being a profiler but I could only find salaries for special agents who are teachers so I would say that for Will is less than that, so maybe 6000-7000$/month from teaching. Since he is back on field he is probably doing his teacher job part time so it's even less, I would stick to a 4000$/month.

So I might be wrong but will could be earning more than 10.000$/month. No idea how taxes work in the US so feel free to correct me.

However when it comes to Hannibal...I see that a therapy session can range from 300 to 500$ in the field of psychiatry. Especially since he has his own office, I would say he charges 400$/session. When we get to see a page in his agenda, it's actually quite full and he works until very late so I would say 5 patients per day (with breaks and all).

So 5 x 400 = 2000$/day

5 x 2000= 10.000$/ week

10.000 x 4 = 40.000$/month

And you have to account for the fact that he is active in the field (publishes papers, assesses phd candidates) so it's safe to say Hannibal earns around 50.000$ per month....which is....insane but not surprising.

Of course all the calculations are speculative but I think I am mostly right.

Also quick Ace Day doodle for you!! :D

Even tho this ship has so much angst potential I really like the wholesome side of it… maybe I’m corny but these two characters are so chaotic and depressed on their own, they also seem to (unwittingly) bring drama and toxicity in their other relationships already, lol.

Yet somehow in their comics together it’s almost as if they’re immune to each others poison-

sure, they mess up and upset each other too, but never in a way that leaves the other scarred, and they’re all about building each other up in the end.

There’s something so comforting to me about two “broken” characters fixing each other, and the way their dynamic/ powers work leaves potential for so much healing ❤️‍🩹…

Marvel may never make it canonically romantic but in my eyes it fully is already haha.

it’s a beautiful sunny day and I’m at the ballpark with by bat. ‘it’s not that I didn’t enjoy the barbie movie as a casual watch, but something about the monologue dances along the same wavelength as the mcu girl power scene and taylor swift. that corporate feminist twang’ I say as I take my first swing

"Yes, Will."

some unhinged authors notes I’ve come across over the years

condolences to anyone who’s been impacted by the ao3 curse (and if anyone’s seen any other crazy ones please add them!)
