Youngish Hannigram

sometimes i feel like all we need to do to get a hannibal season 4 is just to bother streaming services

like let's comment on Netflix or on Prime's instagram/ twitter account. It's normal behavior for fans

cause all Bryan Fuller need is funding, so let's annoy streaming services until they fund him :)

Okaaaay time to explore the parallels between Francis Dolarhyde/Reba McClane and Hannibal/Will! ⬇️

In TWOTL, we see Will & Reba talk about what happened with Francis Dolarhyde.

"W: In the end, he couldn't kill you, and couldn't watch you die.

R: I drew a freak.

W: You didn't draw a freak. You drew a man, with a freak on his back. There is nothing wrong with you.

R: I know there's nothing wrong with me. In making friends I try to be wary of people who foster dependency and feed on it. I've been with a few. The blind attract them.

W: Not just the blind."

See? "In the end, he couldn't kill you, and couldn't watch you die", and that's true about Hannibal & Will.

The dialogue between Reba & Will reflects how Will used to see himself/his relationship with Hannibal. It reminds us that Will used to be wary, too. Better to be alone than in bad company. Before knowing Hannibal, Will was alone most of the time, and ofc you can choose to be alone because you enjoy it, but I don't think the way Will isolated was entirely joyful. He did it to protect himself. Because he knows that the very way he sees the world can attract people who are dangerous to him, can attract people who "foster codependency". He's seen it before, his "uniqueness" makes him vulnerable.

And for a moment, Will genuinely believed Hannibal was a freak. Once he accepted his true nature, accepted to adapt, evolve, become, once he gave in to his real self, he was able to be at peace with who he is ("There's nothing wrong with you") and with who Hannibal is ("You drew a man, with a freak on his back."). He humanizes Francis, in the same way he humanizes Hannibal.

Also, side note, but the "Not just the blind." line could be a way to refer to Will's empathy. He does see, he sees a lot, he sees too much. And that, too, attracts dangerous people.

In a way, Will and Reba are very much alike, because they were both able to see beyond what's visible, to get to know the person they love. Reba's blindness allowed her to see past Francis' physical appearance which he was insecure about, making him feel seen in a way he craved, feel loved for who he was, just like Will's empathy allowed him to see the art in Hannibal's murders, allowed him to sneak a peek behind the person suit and access who Hannibal truly was.

Later, Will & Francis talk:

And this resonates with Hannigram, too. Francis chose to only share a little, "in a way she could survive". Hannigram didn't. They both let themselves be seen, be known. They both changed the other, and got changed by the other, whether they wanted to or not. "I chose not to change her," said Francis, and I'm not sure neither Will nor Hannibal could have chosen not to change each other. They belong to each other so deeply that they actually don't want to trick the monster inside themselves to let the other survive.

"F: I would like to share.

W: You shared with Reba.

F: I shared with Reba a little, in a way she could survive.

W: You didn't change her.

F: I choose not to change her."

They will change each other so thoroughly, that whatever will come out of their mutual transformation, isn't Will & Hannibal, as separate beings, anymore. They are one. They've consumed each other to the point that survival doesn't matter. They embrace their own nature and each other's nature so entirely, that being together surpasses the mere fact of being alive. Being loved is being changed, and they got changed in the most complete way.

kiss alts and cast commentary my beloved

Hannigram is not queer bait, Will is

He is the queer at the end of the fishing hook, baiting Hannibal into biting it

Radiohead is so them

My bad guys almost missed a day… I drew Willoughby… He was very hard to draw but the photo was so pretty (it was a photo of Hugh but let’s just pretend it’s Will). Also Hannibal doing that deer lick thing to him at the bottom… (I referenced this silly deer image) Happy late birthday to me… (I’m 20 now uh oh)

Meta: The Beauty of Hannibal's Season Finales

The Hannibal finales hit different, and it's because they know exactly how to mess with your head. Each season builds to this perfectly agonizing conclusion where you're left with no real answers but a ton of emotions.

Season 1 ends with Hannibal pulling all the strings, framing Will for crimes he didn’t commit. It’s that oh no moment where you realize everything we thought we knew is flipped upside down. Will, in a sense, is now trapped in Hannibal’s web and you just can't look away​.

Then Season 2? It's pure chaos. Will’s on the edge, bleeding out, and Hannibal? He just slips away into the darkness, leaving us hanging with a literal cliffhanger. It’s not just the plot—it's the raw emotion between them that pulls you in, like two people constantly hurting each other and almost, almost enjoying it.

And then comes Season 3... honestly, do we even have words? The way it ends, with Will and Hannibal falling together off a cliff, literally and metaphorically, is both tragic and kind of beautiful. Their relationship is toxic, but it’s like they chose that end. It’s like a twisted love story where they both know they’re doomed, but together, at least they don’t have to face it alone​

So yeah, every finale is about the fall. There’s no escaping the mess they've created, and it's exactly why we love it. There's no redemption arc—just an endless, beautiful spiral into darkness.

Things I think happened during season two's therapy sessions/date nights we didn't get to see:

- Fucking, tbh.

- Sleepovers. We see scenes where they are drinking wine and it's raining and dark out, maybe some nights it was too late or the rain or snow was bad so H told Will to stay. He probably left early, maybe even before H woke up, but it could've happened okay??

- H telling Will about Mischa and his parents. We know Will knows more about Mischa because Chiyoh asks him something and he answers like he knows the story, so H told him and the "I let you know me, see me" was waaay too raw so yeah, 100% he opened his heart out to Will about the whole thing. I think Will also told H about his childhood.

- Casual talks about random shit. I bet Will changed the aftershave, or not but I bet they revived that conversation. Or about food preparation, preferences, too, I just know H wanted to know Will's favorite everythings.

- Little touches. Come on, H tucking a lose curl in those fireplace, wine nights? It happened. Will delicately touching H's lower back as he passed by a smaller space.

Drawtober Day 4

BURN very fond of how this one came out id like to tweak it abit later and print it out but for today its done!

Allow me to go crazy for a sec-

Will used glasses at the start of the show right? but he doesn't use it at the end, right?

What if he never needed glasses, and they were only a way for him to blur his own vision?

Cause if don't need glasses you will have blurry vision while wearing them. So maybe they could have been a way to say he was hiding his true self. Hiding his own "killer instincts" from himself, as a way to fit in.

He doesn't need them after prison, when he is killing ppl with Hannibal, or ever since. Cause he doesn't need them, he is seeing what his own brain wanted to hide from him. His true self

+When Jack wants Will to work in a case at the start of the show, he takes Will's glasses off. Forcing him to look with the eyes of a killer
