Hannibal (2013-2015)

cathedrals (hannibal references) everywhere for those (me) with eyes to see (autism)

imagine how good it must feel to press a gun to your temple after a bad day and just hold it there with your eyes closed for a few minutes before sighing and putting it away

I think hannibal’s dick gave will graham brain damage bc it took him entirely too long to figure out who framed him for murder, mf is like… who could have done this to me.. who has intimate knowledge about my psyche, my schedule, and unpublished crime scene evidence which I share with my therapist in excruciating detail…  what’s not clicking william?

I think watching that one scene in Polar was the first time I ever felt like I'd glimpsed at something truly illicit, I was never supposed to know what Mads Mikkelsen's ass looked like

I'm not sure which direction the pendulum will swing but someone's getting knocked up

Do you envision a post-canon future where Hannibal stops hurting Will?

I think Hannibal would do anything to keep Will around. I think canon sort of proved this, in a way. So if hurting Will became unfunny to Will, then yes. But the problem is that Will enjoys that aspect of the dynamic and keeps circling back to it. I don't think he'd enjoy it as much without getting marked by Hannibal. So Hannibal would only stop if Will genuinely wanted him to. Because Hannibal doesn't actually need violence, but Will does, he's the one who craves it so intensely he repressed it. Hannibal craves something else, not violence itself. Like Will, like Francis.

Hannibal 1.01, "Apéritif"

Imagining Hannibal and Will shebang for the first time and Hannibal is so excited to dote on Will, but after taking just a minute to catch his breath, Will is already snoring, leaving Hannibal to pout at the edge of the bed like a sad dog

Post-orgasm Hannibal: very hyperactive, makes sure Will gets all the aftercare and affection, very cuddly, hungry

Post-orgasm Will: *turns his back to Hannibal and falls asleep in less than 5 minutes*

sickens me to my stomach. how dare this guy get to live my dream.
