Idk if any of yall have watched the movie "Your Monster" but it's on MAX rn & after watching it, I really need a Hannigram au where Will is the meek guy who got terribly dumped & Hannibal is the Monster living in his closet who teachers him to rage & fuck. Fanfic writers, please and thank you
Online someone said that there was a male/male backwalking scene in an episode. Can anyone confirm this and in which episode it happens?
Last lines of s2 ep2:
MURALIST: What is it you wanted from me?
HANNIBAL: Only this.
āā¦Hannibal stitches the muralist into his own masterwork, making Will Grahamās forecast come to pass. A valentine. And just as Will intended.ā
š¦ First, the dialogue feels like a parallel to s3 finale āthis is all I ever wanted for you Will.ā
Secondly VALENTINE?! From Will to Hannibal?
Hereās how it went: Hannibal realises where the killer is located. Before visiting the site, he sees Will in the BSHCI hall. Will says, āthatās the only thing that feels normal anymoreā¦ the structure of understanding the violence. That feels normal.ā In the same conversation Hannibal warns Will, āyouāre missing pieces of yourself. Careful what you replace them with.ā And when inquiring why the killer is making a mural, Willās response to Hannibal is āheās missing pieces too.āšŖšŖšŖ
After that conversation, inspired with new found understanding of the killer and possibly a desire to fill in the pieces for Will, Hannibal sews the killer into his own painting as Piero della Francesca placed himself in the Fresco. We can assume Will was encouraging Hannibal to demonstrate who he is, giving him a sense of normalcy again. And Hannibal certainly did. šŖšŖšŖ
They meet again, with Beverly this time who is showing Will the pictures of the mural (now Hannibalās completed painting). When Will is dissociating, reimagining the scene as the muralist, he says āI am fixed and unseeingā¦ unless someone else sees me.ā At this, Hannibal watches Will closely from outside his dissociated state and smiles. Back within his head, the stag-man looms above the eye majestically, watching him and Will sees the stag-man in return. He then sees Hannibal who speaks words from their therapy ākilling must feel good to God tooā¦ā I believe this is the first time Hannibal is named and fully seen in one of Willās imaginations. OFF Willās realisation and back in the BSHCI he is aware Hannibal is watching him closely and represses any sign of his realisation from Hannibal. All part of the game. šŖšŖšŖ
When the mural was found Beverly remarks, āYou and Will Graham are a good teamā as they both aided in the murals discovery. Hannibal respond āwe do make a good team.ā šŖšŖšŖ
I believe it is not a question as to who gifted what to whom. Rather, itās an example of teamwork: killing the muralist together, seeing one another for the first time. A valentine. And just as Will intended. šŖšŖšŖššš
[if thatās too far fetched for you, you can also assume this is part of the seduction arc rather than a teamsport murder]
I think itāll be Clarice because sheās the iconic original and Silence of the Lambs is known the most. I would also like someone new for Hannibal. Mads is great but I want to see another actorās interpretation of the character.
I might be crazy to write this, but I feel like I should.
The truth is, Iām not so much a fannibal or a hannigram shipper as I'm a "colleague" of Willās. Iāve always been sensitive, mirroring, and half-dead from my imagination and overactive DMN.
After 10+ years of finding solace in Will, I suddenly wondered -- what if there are others like me? What if I could speak to someone who knows what this feels like? Not in an entertaining, sensationalized, or pathologized way, but as someone whoās deeply hurt by thisā¦ erosion. Donāt get me wrong, I donāt think weāre broken, or life is inherently grim (it is, but separately). It just hurts sometimes, yeah? Thatās what Iām talking about.
But then I thought -- if theyāre like me, they probably wouldnāt bother to talk, because itās draining as hell, and Iām not even sure I would, either. And thatās fine. The message Iād like to leave is: Please know that weāre here together. We're here. Together.
And to anyone else: What books would you recommend to find a similar sense of companionship to Will? Maybe shows or movies? I used to find comfort in Kafka, Dostoevsky and Descartes, if it helps. Would like to dive into anything, actually -- I'm healthier and more curious than ever!
Apologies for my english, it's not my native language. Got a bit emotional. And nervous. Thank you for reading.
Would love to get a hannibal tattoo. But what could it look like?
A stag or the stag-man are contenders of course, but what other motifs and things are there?
A funny one could be a hannigram heart locket lol, but idk
No spoilers because I'm literally on chapter one.
Tbh I don't dislike Molly as a character, never disliked her, but the way there's a switch in the first chapter between her bringing up Will's trauma (And does it in good faith so truly no hate to her) and the author reminding us that they've met after it happened, and that Will doesn't talk about it much, plus the way she speaks to Jack just makes me very sad. She loves him a lot, that is clear, but also it kinda feels like she sees him as still unstable and...kind of a ticking bomb waiting to happen (As in any type of psychological relapse, we still don't know in which state he was when they met, obviously not good so that explains why she's worried.)
And I'm not a guy who cries a lot, but I don't know where this hit inside me. I've related in many ways to Will while watching Hannibal, and from the little things they tell us in the first chapter I still find myself empathising with the guy, so I really understand both him and Molly, and why she'd try to warn him about getting involved in the Red Dragon case, but a part of me just wishes she wouldn't insist so much on it because it feels like she almost expects him to snap. And I don't know, I love how she's so caring, but it also hurts and rubs me in the wrong way.
I wanted to share this, I think overall it is beautiful to relate so much to something, and maybe this sub would have appreciated it.
Hey r/HannibalTV, I'm finally taking the plunge and starting Hannibal! I know it has good reviews and generally good ratings. I also know that Dr. Hannibal Lecter is a cannibal but that's about it. I'm going in pretty much blind, not having seen Silence of the Lambs or anything else and I'd love to get a sense of what really drives the series without any major spoilers. I'm not necessarily looking for plot specifics, but more like a feel for what makes the show tick. Is there an overarching mystery throughout the show? Is it the shock factor (I've heard the show can get pretty graphic)? Is it the dialogue/writing like say Breaking Bad? Or is it a combination of all these things? What are the elements that really make Hannibal stand out? Any general tips for a first-time viewer are also welcome! Thanks in advance for any insights you can offer! I'm really looking forward to finally watching it.
iām rewatching (again) and WHY does Jack Crawford have a SHOTGUN?? Itās so fuckin extra!! Like my guy WHAT??
Does anybody else have to watch Hannibal at least once a day otherwise they'll get Hannibal withdrawals? I'm so obsessed I find a way to bring it into everything going on in my life, everything single conversation IM OBSESSED HOW COULD SOMEONE NOT BE? I also can't stop watching Hannibal edits and quoting Hannibal quotes. NOBODY IN MY LIFE LOVES HANNIBAL THEY'VE BEEN FED UP WITH ME FOR YEARS. HANNIBAL IS ACTUALLY MAKING ME GO CRAZY. IM ALSO TRANSFORMING INTO WILL GRAHAM...HELP.
AHH MY GIRLFRIEND BOUGHT US TICKETS TO EMERALD CITY COMIC CON!! Now I have a couple months to figure out how to be a regular person when I see Hugh and Mads š³
Iām currently working in this piece based on the line ātaken off my person suitā. I like where its going but Iām completely stuck here, not sure what to do color wise or if there should be any other elements. Would love any feedback folks have! <3
Owww i was so happy i was seeing hannibal with her but she got SO ANGRY with hannibal getting away with everything, she got to chilton getting shotted, I'm young so i pretended i never watched it but i wanted to. Anyway, I'll have to watch it alone again, she didn't get to the best parts even.
TW mentions of abortion
I am writing a fanfic where Will is a trans man who gets pregnant by Hannibal and decides to have an abortion, but gets spotted by Freddie walking into an abortion clinic and she writes an article about him that causes a shitton of problems. This is mainly going to be a fic about drama, identity, choice, and Will and Hannibalās fucked up romance.
I donāt know what to name it.
I want to name it after a plant that has been historically used for abortion, but they all have weird names like wormwood. I canāt name my fanfic wormwood.
However, I have found a few with semi-ok names.
Rue, Savin, Queen Anneās Lace, and Bloodroot.
Do any of these sound cool? Or at least interesting enough to be the name of my fanfic? Do you know of any other abortion plants with cool names? Thanks for reading.
Be honest.
(And hopeful lol)
Will has a penchant for violence so why does he have such a hard time seeing āviolent scenesā at crime scenes? Does Hannibal like violence and cruelty unlike Will who uses his dark side to do justice that he thinks is right?
