#what about mizumono??

[hannibalspubes]

Honestly the first scene In Hannibal that I was left thinking “are they actually about to kiss??” Was in season 2, episode 7 when Will holds Hannibal at gun point. I could not stop imagining will dropping the gun, slamming Hannibal into the wall like he was gonna kill him but just smashing their faces together instead. Raw, angry, messy. Then I think he would just push away and walk out. the rest of the show would carry on like normal and will would ignore it.

Until the cliff scene when they kiss again

The sexual tension between me and the man holding a gun to my head

#if I could add a kiss to any part of hannibal I would only add two #this scene #and the final scene #some would say #what about mizumono?? #but honestly I think it’s tender enough as is. I think its perfect. #BUT THIS?? #the anger #the confusion #the grief #as Will mourns the loss of who he thought hannibal was #and a kiss #a kiss that is then immediately ignored by one will graham #I think it would be perfect #hannibal #will graham #nbc hannibal #hannibal lecter #hannigram #hugh dancy #mads mikkelsen

i remember thinking some people will like this one (i am barely coherent and just wanted to hide spoilers for people)

thinking about how abigail only has one real double in the show. sure she has the other dead girls, but they’re just copies of her. fakes. they weren’t real in the eyes of her father. they’re so hollow we don’t know anything about them other than their likeness to abigail, and abigail foils no one else. except one other girl: mischa. hannibal’s golden ticket. the only girl that really matters. the girl will has to chase the ghost of because he desperately wants to understand hannibal, and he knows this is the only way he can, so he visits his ancestral home and finds chiyoh. because ultimately abigail wasn’t the girl all the other girls were mirroring, at least not from a narrative point of view. to hannibal, her new father, she was just another copy of a girl who died a long time ago and could never really replace

#dead girls who haunt the narrative lets go !!! #sorry guys idk why I’ve been in such an angst mood recently </3 #I’ll make shitposts again soon and other fluffy posts 🫶 #but for now I’m neck deep in abigail/mizumono angst #also mischa is such an interesting character to me #we know next to nothing about her in the show but she’s the golden ticket. she’s what it all comes down to for hannibal #she’s his ghost #*thinking about my fic again* #nbc hannibal #hannibal #will graham #abigail hobbs #mischa lecter #ghost speaks

"Your bones will be a souvenir of what could have been" had no right to go as hard as it did. Even in the aftermath of betrayal Durge's name will be tied to Gortash's. It's romantic. It's giving huge nasty breakup vibes. If they are to part ways let death never be too far behind.

#durgetash #bg3 #enver gortash #enver gortash x dark urge #gortash bitterly trying to drive home the point of what durge threw away #'we were brilliant together - we could've still been brilliant' his nearest and dearest proving themselves to be well and truly gone #similar to 'I gave you a rare gift but you didn't want it' it's giving mizumono vibes and I'm soooo unwell about it #The end of their union can't result in anything but gruesome violence

so, if Laszlo takes the fall for Guillermo like I predicted and Nandor kills him or both of them or all of them (and then feels real bad abt it and brings him/them back via wish), I know a lot of ppl who are already down on Nandor here are going to swell in numbers and everyones going to hate on him and w/e and anyways I just want people to know something real important

sit down

so i told my friend about that meta we have about hannibal trying to impregnate will throughout s1&2 and since she hasn't finished the show yet, her response to it was, and i quote, "ew".

#raj shitposting #lmao i haven't laughed as hard as i laughed when she said that. #she has read THE FILTHIEST FEISTIEST fanfics to EVER EXIST this woman walked away UNSCARRED from vore among other absolutely nasty things. #and her reaction to canonically implied mpreg was ew. ew. that's what she said. ew. #lmao do y'all see how fucking funny that is? that's HILARIOUS. #i told her about will's mizumono scar and she's like will can't get pregnant bro. #well the bitch definitely got an involuntary abortion bro. #and she's like i'm still more mad at hannibal. #like i don't have ONE PERSON on my side in this war. #y'all mad at my canniboi for being upset FOR ALMOST BEING SENT TO JAIL AND THEN ACTUALLY BEING SENT TO JAIL BY THE MAN HE LOVED?? #eff off #hannigram #hannibal

OKAY OKAY i’m super curious so reblog this w/ your favorite hannibal season finale in the tags!! you can just write the name of the episode or you can explain why if you want. i’m trying to see which one the fans prefer >:)

#you already know probably but mine is #mizumono #anyways i rlly wanna see what different opinions people have #i already have my thoughts about it but i want to see if they get confirmed #reblog!!! #al speaks #hannibal #will graham #hannibal lecter #savoureux #the wrath of the lamb

[pesky--dust]

EDIT: I just realized that he would probably kill her instead of Antony Dimmond and now I kinda wish it happened. Like— it would be so persuasive and metaphorical at the same time.

I know that I'm late to that party, but this gets me.

I mean— wouldn't he simply kill her in “Mizumono” or at all? If at all, then all the possibilities what to do with Abigail in the third season! If he would kill her anyway, then yup, “Mizumono” was the most powerful choice for doing so.

[love-songs-for-emma]

i think will knew he was special considering he tells hannibal he's all alone and that they're alone without each other. will understands that hannibal is alone even with all the other murderers he surrounds himself with, because he cannot find the same fulfillment in the company of others as he does with will because only will can see him and understand him and take away his loneliness.

hi anon ! thanks for sending this bc it's smth i've been meaning to expand on for awhile. i wrote a post many moons ago abt it and have another ask thats just been Waiting for a proper reply (srry!) and maybe now's the time to address it

okay so. i think this ask is in reference to my tags on a recent reblog, screencapped here for reference:

i think youre right that will is aware that he's special to hannibal, considering he's special enough to be one of the patients hannibal decides to try and coerce into their "Becoming." but! i do question will's understanding of the Depth of his uniqueness to hannibal.

in shiizakana (s2e9), after will finds out about randall tier having been hannibal's patient and margot visits him at home to chat abt hannibal's therapy, will has a bit of a stress fit in his next session:

pacing the room, avoiding the chair. he's questioning what he has in common with hannibal's other patients... he wonders how many others there have been – even bringing up his brief conversation with hannibal's own therapist who tells will he isnt in a particularly unique dynamic with hannibal

but. this is in shiizakana, 3 eps before the quote you're referencing. so let's move forward and see what's changed:

in tome-wan (s2e12), will finally gets to properly speak with the famed dr. du maurier and he asks how they can bring down hannibal. her only advice being

so. hannibal's got a bit of an ego (shocker). and during their next session,, things get a lil dicey. will leans hard into this idea. he essentially lists off all the work hannibal's done to get will to be entirely his

i'd like to argue that will doesn't see this list as a "why im special to hannibal" list but rather a way to stroke hannibal's ego, like bedelia had explicitly said would be hannibal's downfall. bc the fact is,, will Knows hannibal can and likely has done this level of insane shit to others. and narratively,, i'd say a lot of will's dialogue in this scene is influenced by bedelia's advice from the scene before where she advises will to stroke hanninal's whimsey and his need to feel Unique, even god-like. and hannibal even sees will seeing him!

so yeah will's saying "we're unique together," but that's also flattery on his part towards hannibal.! he's using hannibal's knowledge of his empathy to convince him that Only Will Gets Him. he's saying "yes ive been applying myself to your perspective and u are so unique and special." it's will manipulating BACK. (thats our powerful lil gay.) and i'd argue that all these layers of lies and deceit leave little room for truth and Feelings to leak through the cracks. how much of what hannibal says does will believe? how much of what will himself says does he believe?

all of this and we're still left questioning: does will know just how important and special he is to hannibal? well. i'l leave yall with some words from bedelia

#hehe. so maybe will doesnt consciously know he's hannibals whole world. but hannibal has begun to acknowledge it #hannibal knows will. will knows hannibal. they. they! #is this even coherent? i'd say mostly #i def could edit more and put more thought into it but. im simply too tired for that #instead ill simply say thank u anon for giving me an excuse to ramble about this #all for me to end up essentially shrugging and being like ''but anyway. who fuckin KNOWS what these guys r thinking am i Right'' #they're so many layers deep in manipulations that i doubt they even rlly know what they feel or have the time to unpack that #but i personally dont think will really Really gets the depth of his uniqueness to hannibal until they're burning patient files #or when he sees abigail again #knowing hannibal saved her. for him. #or ultimately when he's bleeding out on the kitchen floor #(and then i have a Whole other ramble about will's back&forth confusion about his worth to hannibal again during s3a #but thats a story for another post. one ive already made but would Love to expand upon) #i just love saying words alright #this fricken SHOW #hannibal.txt #nbc hannibal #mizumono #hannibal s2 #hannibal lecter #will graham #hannibal #shiizakana #tome-wan #.txt #.png #maria is literally just rambling. hi #asks #ask #anon

Hannibal 2.13 Mizumono

Bryan Fuller: What I love about this moment is that Hannibal gives Will the opportunity to come clean and be forgiven.

David Slade: Yeah for me in a way it is almost like the couple where one of them has an affair but that could be forgiven if only they would admit it and start anew - there's time to cast off the other woman, if you can call Jack that. And uh - the greater betrayal is the denial not the act.

Bryan Fuller: Yes, like the act up until this point is justifiable but Hannibal is giving Will the opportunity to tell the truth and he doesn't take it.

[ghostdrinkssoup]

the thing that really gets me about mizumono is that will doesn’t even fight back. he saw alana mangled outside. he knows jack might be dead. he has a loaded gun in hand. but not once does he try to hurt hannibal. he doesn’t even shoot. will just lets him caress his cheek, fingers curling into his hair. there’s no resistance. when hannibal stabs him, will leans into it. he doesn’t want to escape. and it all hurts so badly because it’s not like will tricked hannibal into loving him; he simply persuaded him that he might love him back. because that’s what will thought hannibal did to him in s1, and only now does he realise that maybe it was more real for hannibal than he thought. or worse, that maybe he wants to be with hannibal regardless of whether hannibal genuinely loves him. that maybe it’s worth it to be close to him, even if his touch splits his stomach open

#it’s midnight and I’m about to pass out so apologies if this doesn’t make sense #but I’m thinking about it and ohhhhh my god #the way will looks at hannibal before he gets stabbed always kills me #like he couldn’t look away even if he tried #so vulnerable and full of love #and then hannibal plunges the knife into him I CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE #mizumono is the dead sister who haunts the narrative #she haunts my every waking moment #nbc hannibal #hannibal #will graham #hannigram #ghost speaks

[graciereadshannigram]

y'know, sometimes i can't get over how impulsively hannibal acted in mizumono like, baby girl, he called you to warn you the FBI knew!!! maybe wait two seconds before whipping out the knife and gutting the love of your life because maybe, just maybe, there's an explanation that isn't "will betrayed me, i must forgive him the way God forgives."

and then i remember.

hannibal didn't give a fuck about garret jacob hobbs when he called and said, "they know." he was just curious about what would happen. it was for his own amusement.

so of course when will calls and says the same exact words, hannibal doesn't see it as the genuine gesture will meant it to be. how could he? all he knows is that will lied to him about freddie, refused to run away with him and insisted on confronting jack, and is now calling hannibal to taunt him and see what he does. all of will's actions have been for his own amusement.

and oh boy, does hannibal put on a show. "you want to see what i'm capable of? fucking watch me."

#MIZUMONO WILL ALWAYS MAKE ME EMOTIONAL #dont mind me #i'll be curled up in a ball sobbing about this AGAIN #hannibal #s02e13 mizumono #hannigram #will graham #hannibal lecter #nbc hannibal #hannibal is also a dramatic impulsive gay drama queen too though dont get me wrong

[deerabigailhobbs]

I disagree with the crowd that says that Abigail likes to kill, that deep down she is like Hannibal, like Will, like her father, but just couldn't accept it. I don't think she gets a thrill out of murder, but out of survival.

This is a woman who (from what we know), was always watched by her dad, that had friends but wasn't close to them, she had no agency in her life. So when she could do something for herself, break away from the chains with force, it made her feel powerful.

She kills Nick because she thinks he'll kill her, guts him like her father taught her how. She lured the girls to her father, not because she liked it but because she wanted to live.

To her being alive is powerful, she's seen the faces of girls that look like her, seen them dead in her dreams, she knows her time could run out at any moment, so when she has the chance to face a potential killer head on, she does and kills him. She does to Nick what she wanted to do to her father for all those years.

When having that conversation with Will about her father in Relevés, Will says he felt powerful, but his version of "powerful" is very different to Abigail's. He felt powerful because he got to end a life, Abigail felt powerful because her life didn't end. It felt "good" to survive another day.

And even in the scenes with her fake and real death, she wants to end her life herself. She walks to Hannibal willingly, knowing she has no other option, and then in the flashback to the house she asks "can I push the button?" She wants to decide how her life will end, and not have it taken from her, and although there wasn't much of a choice in Mizumono, it was a choice nevertheless.

[honeygrahambitch]

So let's talk about this wallpaper.

What strikes me the most is that Will Graham stubble on Hannibal's face. Hannibal whom we have never seen anything other than perfectly shaved. Which means that in between Mizumono and the beginning of season 3, he had a phase of looking like this. And that could be because he didn't want to be recognized but most likely because he had been depressed badly. So bad that he didn't even bother to look clean. No more person suit your honor. I wish we saw this.

His wounds? Are there what's left from Mizumono? Contorno? Something else? He fell of his motorcycle? Could be.

The leather jacket slayed. Such a shame Will didn't see him wearing it. It would have changed a lot of things.

"The hunt begins" it's a nice way of putting it since it has more meanings. Hannibal's usual hunting for rude people, Will hunting Hannibal because he is trying to find him, The FBI is trying to find Hannibal, Mason and Alana are hunting Hannibal.

"Come and get it" I am sorry but this can only be something Hannibal would say to Will and Will only and I can't see it in any other way.
