So my mom bought me a copy of the Eighth Arrow online, and I'm like, super hyped about that because from the premise and reviews I know I'm gonna love it a lot.

But the book isn't here yet.

How tragic.

So I made this to cope with the wait.

This is totally their setup in Dante's Inferno, trust me, Dante told me.

hannibal’s name has hebrew/greek origins, meaning ‘Baal-hanan’ or ‘God is gracious’, and tho he can be gracious in some regards, most see his character as lucifer. incl. mads himself:

“But I believe that Hannibal Lecter is as close as you can come to the devil, to Satan. He’s the fallen angel. His motives are not banal reasons. It’s in his genes. He finds life is most beautiful on the threshold to death, and that is something that is much closer to the fallen angel than it is to a psychopath. He’s much more than a psychopath, and there is a fascination for us. We can’t understand it, but we want to understand it.” mads

in this scene, hannibal tells jack to “take control” as he did w/will, miriam, abigail, red dragon, etc. it is a genuine act of friendship from him. hannibal is a ‘virgil’ of sorts, or perhaps moreso a ‘beatrice’, (who originally initiated dante’s journey in “the divine comedy” + guided him through ‘purgatorio’ & ‘paradiso’).

he lures those who dare to seek, and in turn for accepting their darkness; gracious liberation. and while jack certainly has the capacity for darkness (& has shown it on occasion), he doesn’t wish to embrace it like will, thus ending jack/hannibal/will’s friendship. by the end of s2, will has fully incorporated his darkness/hannibal into his psyche and welcomes it.

Hozier was in France singing an unreleased song called Francesca at a pop up show.

In Dante's Inferno, she is in the 2nd circle of hell (lust) as she was killed by her husband for sleeping with his brother. When she is first introduced, she introduces herself with the place she comes from rather than her name, showing a detachment that she has to herself and self objectification as she does not accept responsibility for her actions of lust.

This theory on Unreal Unearth is about Dante's Inferno is seemingly true.

I was looking at all the Pietro della Vigna conversation illustrations the other day and felt compelled to draw a whole bunch of lines because this canto has been rattling around in my head for 10 years now and oh man, Gustave Doré knows how to make an illustration that'll set my brain on fire

Dante's Divine Comedy (Inferno, Canto 13), trans. Robert M. Durling + the section notes for context

#OOF uploading this to tumblr really killed how it looks 😬 i did this at 3000px and cut it down to 1200 px for posting and #oughh that 500/540 for tumblr. hmm.#ah well! it is what it is. i dont draw with social media posting sizes in mind so i'll accept my fate #dante's divine comedy #divina commedia #drawing tag #suicide cw #if you ever want to know why i am the way i am a good part of it is that i took a class that covered the divine comedy in highschool #my teacher saw that i was really into it and gave me a copy of her teaching notes and also #recommended this edition because it had the italian with it #and then ANOTHER teacher saw i was reading it during study block and told me that i should listen #to an italian read along of it and that if i ever get the chance i should hear it performed IN italy #me 16/17: i think i can like this a normal amount #several adults in my life: fuck that you should literally fall in love with this stuff instead #and i took that to heart!

I spent a while trying to think of alternate hairstyles to try on Virgil's luscious long hair but all my brain gave me was 'Rapunzel in Tangled (2010)'
