My Shayla…
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)

i love to call Hannibal pathetic for this, cause he is such a calculated man, yet he risks everything for Will
He risks his life, his mind, his freedom
And at the end, he fully lets Will throw him off the cliff, cause he was truly vulnerable to him. And it's something that man would have never done before meeting Will.
With that, it's clear that Will changed Hannibal in so many ways, cause he turned him weak to his emotions, he became empathetic
Sometimes I watch the show and try to think of Hannibal’s perspective and it’s a total trip. Like. Imagine you’ve been able to control and pick and choose your emotions and reactions your whole life, due to being somehow psychopath-adjacent. And the only time you couldn’t was when you were little with your baby sister, and it’s probable that as your brain matured, the possibility of feeling and forming connections like that dried up entirely. You read the psychiatric journals, and occasionally there’s something about a man who can connect with others so deeply he can become an echo of them. And then you meet this man, and he mocks your comment about eye contact while holding yours.
An understanding passes between both of you that you have hidden depths. Instead of killing him, you bring him breakfast, and make him dinner, and serve him drinks. Instead of being able to toy with his mind without a care, you think of him and your chest clenches, and your gut swoops, and his face and voice and his rude little barbs invade your mind like glittering parasites that you can’t remove. These feelings are alien, and they’re also yours. You know, deep down, why you’re letting him live, why you stare after him, why you toe the line of risking it all for him. But you don’t want to face it. It’s terrifying, this horizon of who you are and can be that looms before you with no choice of your own.
Framing him presents a convenient opportunity for ridding yourself of this thing he brings on in you, this total lack of control, this fever-dream surrender that breaches the walls of your mind and the tics and tells of your body so effortlessly— but you miss him. You don’t miss anyone, and the one person you do is more of an imago that never was able to grow into her own real person. But the you you’ve helplessly become certainly does. You’ve become an addict. You cannot let him rot when his presence gave your monochrome world color, you can’t quit the drug you’ve always shunned. This is all a devil’s bargain, certainly, but you’ve already damned yourself, and all that’s left to do is plunge further. Oh and by the way. The infuriating man in question looks like this:
Like okay then, good luck not having the crashout of the century 😭
"Can we move?" Will asked as soon as he entered his and Hannibal's new home.
"We just moved in here. What happened?" Hannibal replied from the kitchen.
"Got caught in small talk with neighbors. They were curious about how a handsome single father like you managed to bring up such a wonderful son."
"I don't have any son." Hannibal said a bit confused. To that, Will sighed.
Hannibal parted his lips as the realization started to sink in.
"No."
"Yes."
"What did you say to that?"
"That you are not my father, obviously. To which they excused themselves and implied that nowadays age gaps between siblings are something usual."
"How vile. Is there a part where they don't call me old or where we are not involved in an incestuous relationship?" Hannibal asked while washing a wine glass.
"I told them you are my partner. And now they are sure we are CEO's or something. I didn't want to say more." Will said as if he was trying to delete the conversation from his brain. "Can we move? Please?"
"You have to learn to be more precise."
"Forgive me, Hannibal, I forgot the gay flag in my car but I promise I will carry it everywhere from now on."
"No, I'm just saying that you are allowed to call me your husband," Hannibal said, "I do refer to you like that."
"I can't see any ring on my finger."
The glass almost slipped into the sink.
"Well, you said we are beyond marriage. You even said that a stupid ring did not stop you from running away from...your previous commitment." He reminded him.
"Then go ahead, tell these religious people we have a gay relationship and that we don't plan to get married. Ever."
"Is living in sin something you are suddenly preoccupied about?" Hannibal teased.
"Is proposing to me something you are terrified of?"
Silence from both.
"Living in sin, Hannibal? Did you really say that?" Will asked, no longer able to keep a serious expression.
"You started talking about religion first," Hannibal replied casually. "And to answer your question, I would rather die than receive another rejection from you."
"You haven't proposed because you believed I would say no." Will reflected. "No, I wouldn't say "no". I said we are beyond marriage because I see us as more than married already. We are committed to each other, aren't we?"
"Will," Hannibal started as the look in his eyes softened, "As soon as these cookies are ready, I am grabbing your hand and we are visiting all the neighbors. And I am introducing you as my husband. I am committed to you eternally with or without a ring."
Will averted his gaze from Hannibal's, a little taken aback by the sincere confession. "We can't even have a proper fight anymore. Disgustingly sweet."
"I could say it all again while holding a knife against your neck."
"I am even more concerned about the fact that I might like that."

"Post-fall Hannibal would kill Chilton" No he wouldn't.
Hannibal wants Chilton alive, surviving more than living, cause that's the lesson Chilton needed to learn.
Chilton always believed he was in charge of people, that he had power over them. When he truly didn't.
He felt like he had power over the fake Chesapeake ripper, and for that he got his organs removed while awake. He thought he had power over Will, and the fact that Hannibal was the real Chesapeake ripper, and that got him framed and shot by Miriam. Lastly, he thought he had power over the Great Red Dragon, and that got him burnt alive.
He has suffered time and time again, every time because he went against Hannibal, and believed he has power over the situation. But he never truly did.
So he would keep him alive, as a cruel reminder that he is powerless, and that he would be dead if Hannibal wanted to.
maybe having Will wake up (after the Verger farm) to Hannibal playing the piano, and realizing why it was tuned..
Also Hannibal lovess the piano and i'm sure he would play something beautiful for Will
I think we as a society need to talk more about the fact that Will owned a piano. We were robbed. We could have had a piano scene.
WAIT-
So, i forgot this but apparently Will always takes his glasses off when he is around Hannibal. Which makes sense cause, with him, he is seeing his darkest and truest self.
And he puts them back when Hannibal surrenders to the cops. Cause he wants to be blinded to the things he once saw. Hoping that will mean he could have a normal life, like the one he tried to have with Moly
But sadly, a fulfilling life for Will Graham is not a normal life like the rest of the world. The life he truly desires is one with Hannibal in it, and he gets to a point where he can't hide that behind the glasses anymore.
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
