nothing to offer but quotes from nbc hannibal/the blooper reel

#great teamwork guys. motive! motive! i’m out! #is it in the parking lot!? #alana! i love you! #i’m not gonna let this motherfucker have no fun #sorry i’ve realized i have no idea what i’m meant to be doing #I KNOW WHEN IM AWAKE!!! #you guys see the game on saturday #you wanna do dinner on friday? #did you forget her name? that’s bad. #we had a wonderful thirty seconds together #we can be anywhere in the east or the south in an hour and a half- that makes so fucking sense at all #or just a beer #two beers #i thought i could be so cool #they love and kill what they love #and eat what they love #don’t you crave change will? #i’m your friend will i don’t care about the lives you save i care about your life #i don’t find you that interesting #you’re here visiting an old flame #is your wife aware of how intimately you and hannibal know each other? #don’t say hannibal lecter #i’m saying hannibal lecter #this killer wrote you a poem. are you going to let his love go to waste? #not fond of eye contact are you? #eyes are distracting. see too much don’t see enough #it’s hard to focus when you’re thinking are those whites really white or he must of hepatitis or is that burst vein? #so yeah i try to avoid eyes whenever possible #where do you fall on the spectrum? #nbc hannibal

will went to lithuania BY BOAT to learn more about hannibal, got pushed off a train for him, followed him to italy with the fantasy of him, hannibal and abigail living happily there AND made a tableau for him that HE’D NEVER EVEN SEE.

let that sink in the next time your man texts you “good morning” and reevaluate your standards.

#wills crazy cause me personally i don’t have the energy for all that #anyone who says will wasn’t whipped for hannibal also needs to reevaluate their standards #nbc hannibal #hannibal #will graham #hannibal and will #hannibal lecter #murder husbands #hannigram

people who claim nbc hannibal was “queerbaiting” or “not explicitly queer” lack basic media literacy

#nbc hannibal #hannibal #hannibal lecter #will graham #hannigram #it’d be one thing if it was all subtext #but it’s in the text #the actual goddamn text #like if you miss it and say it’s not clear enough to be called canon then that’s on you #i don’t belive in gatekeeping but

Thinking about how Will Graham views his anger as righteous which of course extends to Hannibal. A lot of his anger in s2 is over the fact that he finally trusted someone only for that person to betray him but it’s more than that. It’s more than just what Hannibal did to him. What he’s truly deeply angry about is that Hannibal knows his dark nature and not only knows it, but wants him to embrace the very nature he’s desperately trying to suppress.

He’s supposed to be the one that’s perceptive. He’s the one who is supposed to see it all while remaining unknown and unseen. And yet Hannibal recognizes what kind of person he has as soon as they meet. It’s not supposed to be that way. He hates that Hannibal is the one person he can’t hide from. Who will always see through the facade he puts on for others who buy into it. That’s why when Hannibal essentially tells him in s3 that he hasn’t changed, he’s fuming. If just Hannibal can believe he’s changed, maybe he himself can believe it too.

But he doesn’t. And deep down Will knows that’s just what it is too: a facade. Hating Hannibal is really just him hating himself at the end of the day. He takes a lot of his displaced anger out on him. He has these violent murder fantasies about Hannibal that symbolically can be read as him trying to kill off this part of himself. He can’t kill them off. Suppression only works for so long. The fantasies only grow stronger.

It’s only when he gives in at last during TWOTL. When he stops supressimg who he is. When he stops hating himself for it and overthinking about the act of violence. When he allows himself indulgence. This is when he experiences being at peace with himself possibly for the first time ever. At last, the internal battle that rages on inside him calms. The voices in his head go quiet. Even though this is brief, he knows that what he and Hannibal experienced on that cliff is a moment of peace in a lifetime of unrest. He doesn’t take it for granted, which is why he says what he does. When he stops fighting Hannibal, giving into the violence and also his touch as they embrace, it represents that he stops fighting with himself too. And isn’t that the most beautiful thing in the world?

#hannibal #nbc hannibal #will graham #hannigram #hannibal lecter #hannibal meta #you guys always get my Hannibal analysis #well it’s will hours baby #I’m feeling very will lately which means you get will analysis #I’m so will graham like genuinely you have no idea #I feel like everyone says they’re will bc he’s haha awkward autistic loner #and trust me I’m that too #but I’ve personally had so much of a battle with suppressing myself and shame and not letting myself have desire #especially over things not socially acceptable #and that resonates so hard with me #also the displaced anger #and a lot of my anger I would describe as righteous since it’s directed at those who have harmed me #okay maybe the person who said I write will well has a point #I also have a lot of self hate and don’t believe I’m able to be loved anyways #will graham I love you #literally typed this out like I would die if I didn’t get it out #also he denies affection too in addition to violence #or violence serves as a stand in for affection #(hence the line about speaking to him in a language he understands from chiyoh) #so on the cliff he accepts not only violence but affection #he accepts Hannibal’s love he stops running from it #the dual acceptance agh #so many layers #the way you can tell from how he holds onto Hannibal he’s just giving in completely #in that moment he was probably like what do I even do he’s not used to that

once a year on their anniversary Will gets to beat the absolute shit out of Hannibal as a present

#i say this as if i don’t write fanfiction of them being romantic saps all the time #hannibal would get him sweet gifts okay #they are the most ship ever #fable’s stuff #txt #hannigram #hannibal #will graham #hannibal lecter #hugh dancy #mads mikkelsen #nbc hannibal #hannibal nbc

Because I am a big fan of tender Hannibal but do also believe that his manipulation and medical malpractice in regards to Will is something that is important went looking at their relationship, here’s what I (at 11:12 pm) think Hannibal was thinking throughout the show (yes I left off the end of S3, I’m very tired.)

- Hannibal meets Will and is OBSESSED

- Realises Will is way too bitchy and into the whole crime fighting/solving thing to accept him for who he truly is

- Sees Will’s potential and decides the only reasonable thing to do is to manipulate him and let him almost die from encephalitis

- Falls even harder when Will tries to have him killed, would do anything for that man

- Will won’t elope with him so he gets gently spritzed with a water bottle (stabbed and his pseudo daughter killed in front of him)

- Broods in Florence for a while

- Sees Will and instantly decides he will once again do anything for that man because he has absolutely got separation anxiety and if Will won’t play ball then Hanni will just have to get arrested so Will knows exactly where he is when he’s ready (willing to elope with him)

#I also think it is perfectly acceptable to look at how Will may or may not have been repressing parts of his identity #especially in season one #and I also think it’s perfectly fine #to project onto characters #because they’re characters #and #like #not real people #it’s okay to see a character you identify with and project onto them #idk dude I just feel like the crimes and cannibalism fandom has got kinda gatekeepy and overly hostile lately #let’s just let people engage with media the way they want to #you can say that you don’t understand something #or prefer something else #without booing everyone who thinks/does something #not saying that pointing out harmful stereotypes is bad #but like #a lot of this is just dumb shit or differences in interpretation #of the weird kalidescope gay cannibalism cooking show #hannibal #hannibal nbc #hannibal lecter #hannigram

No but Hannibal and Will are both so dramatic and petty, and in truth, clever and intellectual. I highly doubt their arguments would resort to, uh, culinary combat unless they had exhausted all other insulting options. Like Will is mad bc Hannibal will not let him adopt the 23rd dog in a row and Hannibal is mad that there is MUD on the CARPET and dog fur on his $552239737900 suit. Will puts McDonald’s coupons in Hannibal’s wallet. Hannibal switches the time on every single clock in the house. Will puts ketchup and mustard on his fancy gourmet dinner. Hannibal frames a poster for a local dog catching service.

Will is like “Well we already agreed that tonight we are going to have regular pork” and Hannibal is like “Well I apologize, there’s only one dish on the table that is people-free. So sorry, Will.” Will’s like “Wow Hannibal, thanks for making me a jello dessert for dinner. So nice of you” and then Hannibal says “Gelatin, the main ingredient, traditionally comes from boiling cartilaginous cuts of meat, usually pork. The people-free dish is in fact the water with a mediterranean lime and a hint of mint leaf in it” and Will grabs the frying pan and a potato skewer and leaps over the table

Guys, today I found out that nickname ‘Surgeon of Death’ was once one of the early nicknames for the ‘Monster of Florence’.

Aka

A deranged serial killer

Aka

The inspiration for Hannibal Lector.

You are invited for a Christmas Eve Dinner party hosted by the one and only Dr Hannibal Lecter

Christmas Eve, 4 PM - 11 PM (?)

Dr Lecters place, Baltimore, Maryland

Wear something nice, please, Will.

#Hannibal gave will an invitation to his dinner party #he’s begging will ti wear something nice if you can’t tell #he wants to bring a date to his own party without saying it #nbc hannibal #hannibal lecter #will graham #don’t question this it’s silly and I don’t care so yeah

I’m going to make a video essay entitled “Hannibal Lecter Is and Always Has Been Bi” and all of the comments will be negative and everyone will boo except for one person: Thomas Harris himself, who will see the video, watch the first fifteen minutes, say “By Jove, they’re on to me,” and then jump dramatically out of a window to escape.

The video will be five hours and will mostly consist of me going “whY WOULD HE SAY/DO THIS IF HE WASN’T FUCKING BI???”

#the inane ramblings of a madman #i’m not actually #i have considered making video essays #on my various hyperfixations #but i think someone would leave a comment like ‘you’re overthinking this’ #and i will just perish because ???yes??? #of course i’m overthinking this??? #i overthink everything why wouldn’t i overthink this #do you think a person who doesn’t overthink things #would look into hannibal goddamn lecter like this #come on #don’t say what we all know that’s boring

My bro will is in the most toxic relationship with this gay asf cannibal and he keeps coming back as if he doesn’t know Hannibal will manipulate him

#hannibal #hannibal lecter #hannigram #will graham #um #gay #bro can’t get enough of the manipulation as if he didn’t get enough in the past two seasons #I don’t rlly like the red dragon arc :/ #it’s whatever #I don’t like it when shows focus on antagonists a lot #and in Hannibal’s defense he was ALSO a protag AND an antag #the hannigram ship has been destroyed 300 times over its being held together by sheer Will power and duck tape #1. framed will for murder and studied a mental condition that was actively ruining his mental state #2. Hannibal manipulated him and exhibits unhealthy attachment to will #wtf am i saying #idgaf I love these homos #ngl i like the unhealthy ships #I love when they rely on each other
