I took some more notes while watching Hannibal, lol.

Fromage

Opening with Will at work. Nice.

God he’s gorgeous

Oh now what is this?

There’s a man outstanding in his field, loooool

Oh hi Tobias

Catgut? Sometimes they’re made of peeeeeoooople guts! Oooooooh, spooky!

I wish the opening titles were longer

Nice hat, Will

Aw Will. It was totally a date, wasn’t it?

Don’t worry Alana - you’ll find someone! And her name is Margot.

Ah, Franklin. You’re a bit sad and pathetic, but eh. I feel bad for you.

Oh damn! Turned him into an instrument!

Pretty gnarly

Jack, i love you, but leave my boy alone.

Do the thing

*woosh* *woosh*

Yay!

That’s right Will - manspread, lol.

I think I saw the corpse move. Oops. It happens.

“This is my design” *sounds of FBI agents cheering*

Garrett Hobbs, for a dude who died in the pilot, you’re sure sticking around. Like a bad stain.

Bedelia! I love her. Gillian Anderson is ❤️❤️❤️

Dang Will, way to be creepy, lol.

I goddamn love Bev. And I know what’s gonna happen to her and it makes me sad.

Hannigram time, woot!

I love when they work together.

“What do you see behind closed eyes?” Uhhhhhhh eyelids???

“Because he knows I’d tell you” Oooooh Franklin! Look at you with your insight!

Hanni and the theremin? Somehow this makes too much sense, lmao.

Making flys.

I think Will is wearing the ladder outfit. Not the episode with that scene in it, but still, *hannigram fangirling intensifies*

Will loves animals ❤️

KISS!

Willana? No thank you!

You wouldn’t be good for each other.

I’m sorry Will and Alana, but your soulmates are in another castle!

Dinner time!

“Don’t kill Franklin.” Awww Hannibal!

Aw shit, Tobias. Now Hanni has to kill you, lol.

Two killers talk about killing each other.

Moar hannigram!

“I kissed Alana Bloom” well hello to you too, Will.

Hanni is attempting not to be jealous.

Hannibal’s love language is feeding people. And, on occasion, feeding people PEOPLE.

“I met a man” Oh do tell!

“I’m not interested in being his friend.” AKA I’d rather be his boyfriend.

Careful Will…

Saved by the psychosis (actually the encephalitis, but we’re not supposed to know that yet, lol)

Ear ringing. That’s a very nice touch. I love when movies/shows remember that guns are LOUD.

Look at Hanni, being a responsible psychiatrist.

“I just killed two men.” Hanni immediately thinks of Will, and is concerned.

Awww Franklin.

Geez, Hanni! I guess being worried about Will makes him a tad more… murdery.

Farewell Franklin

Lmao what.

Hanni getting IN. TO. IT. I like it.

Ladder arm break, ouch.

Dayum, Hannibal.

Hanni sees Will, is visibly relieved.

“I feel like I’ve dragged you into my world”

THESE TWO MAH GAWD, they’re so into each other it’s ridiculous

Bedelia!

“I can’t help feeling responsible for what happened to Franklin” gee, maybe because YOU KILLED HIM WITH YOUR BARE HANDS, lmao

This fucking show, man.

Soooo this one was nice and gay. Even with the Willana kiss, lol.

Only one for tonight, though. Maybe I’ll tackle nine and ten tomorrow.

hannibal questions! 🍖🔪

@nietzscheantrout @horrorlesbians and @hanniba1 wanted me to answer these hannibal questions and i wrote too much but oh well! thanks to all 3 of you ilu!!!

favorite episode and why: oh we’re just goin straight to the hard questions huh um OKAY so i think i can only do an ep a season - s1: SORBET SUPREMACY! you get to see the exact moment will looks at hannibal and thinks “.........shit. it’s him isn’t it. he’s The One. SHIT.” and that is so important to me - s2: this one is really hard maybe naka-choko? it’s so fucking gay and sexy. but tome-wan... but mizumono............ yeah idk - s3: torn between digestivo and the wrath of the lamb cuz they both hurt SOOO good much; i love will breaking up with hannibal and hannibal manipulating the situation so will can’t leave asldkjansk it’s so toxic we have to stan..... and for twotl i mean do i really have to give a reason every scene LIVES in my mind and it contains my favorite shot in the whole show:

that is LOVE baby! that is DESIRE! that is being ENTHRALLED!!!!

least favorite episode and why: i feel like they’re all so necessary that it’s kind of impossible to say but probably antipasto. i get sick of hannibal and bedelia’s shenanigans really quickly and as much as i hate to admit it... i miss will. i also think it was an extremely weak season opener and i blame it for getting the show canceled sjshshsgsg the resentment...

favorite side character: chiyoh or jimmy or actually wait— RANDALL TIER 🖤

if you could bring back one character who died, who would it be?: RANDALL FUCKING TIER. i want there to be a weird thing with him and hannibal and will going on. but also i love what his death did for will so idfk, other than him it’s gotta be beverly

dish prepared in the show that you would like to try eating/making: i was supposed to make hannibal’s osso bucco recipe like 3 weeks ago but it completely slipped my mind so i guess i’ll get on that my next grocery trip  

which side character would you kill off?: chilton just because for god’s sake just let the man DIE ALREADY poor guy <- i’m taking ava’s answer because YEAH

was there any scene that you didn’t like to look at?: nah. the skin ripping scenes at the beginning of either kaiseki or sakizuki (idk i don’t remember, i hardly watch s2a) are particularly brutal but i tough it out

biggest ship: i mean do i even have to say

why did you start watching hannibal?: my wife, who was my girlfriend at the time, and her dad were watching it as it was airing and i was like “oh cool hannibal lecter origin story” but due to inconsistent access to the episodes i would just watch it randomly and that is... not the way to watch hannibal. i gave up around the end of s2 but knew hannigram was It regardless. i decided to watch s3 for the first time earlier this year just to have finished it and was like HOLD UP and did an immediate rewatch that left me... well, how i am now

favorite hannibal fic if you’ve read any?:

oh boy. yall ready for this? all of these can be found on ao3 obviously (i’m so sorry this is so long but i guess i’ve been asked to put together a fic rec anyway)

have you read the thomas harris books?: no and i’m not going to lmao #fakefan

favorite murder tableau: if we’re talking just hannibal’s- the judge. if we’re talking Murder Bad But Kinda Pretty like in general probably the mushroom people or the totem

favorite blood spill: will imagining hannibal while he beats randall to death or The Gutting of Will Graham

what’re some of your headcanons?: - will is good at shibari (backed up in canon: his fishing knots, the firefly man’s full body hishi karada harness) - hannibal rarely listens to modern, non-classical music but he’s a björk fan and he saw one of her chapel performances during the vespertine era and was Moved - will listens to classic rock (zeppelin, the doors, pink floyd) with some classic country (patsy, merle, johnny) and blues (billie, muddy, bessie) thrown in. he’s also a sucker for early/mid-90s college rock/alternative/grunge - will plays the piano (because of the piano in his living room) and the harmonica (because he’s country white trash); he’s kind of shit tho - hannibal fell for will somewhere between “my thoughts are often not tasty” and “you won’t like me when i’m psychoanalyzed” (love at first sight! at last sight! at ever and ever sight!!!) - will’s circumcised, hannibal isn’t 🤪 - hannibal’s a gemini!!!! adaptable, creative, intelligent, outgoing, impulsive, etc - will’s an aquarius!!!!! analytical, a loner, temperamental, unique, compassionate, etc - will’s mom was jewish go read my fic about it https://archiveofourown.org/works/26774326 - hannibal is an agender man (tbh i think of this as canon, it’s just unstated/undefined) - hannibal can speak russian, spanish, and a teensy bit of portuguese in addition to the other languages we know he speaks (lithuanian, english, french, italian, japanese) - will speaks limited amounts of french; he learned it as a kid in louisiana - ED TW will sometimes has a Difficult relationship with food due to food instability by the way of poverty as a kid and goes through periods where it’s hard to keep himself fed, but hannibal is so good for him in that way because he keeps him from going hungry 😓 (yes this is me projecting but also it makes SENSE) - hannibal typically bottoms but THEY DEFINITELY ARE BOTH VERS and will never stops being surprised by how much he loves catching a dick. every time is like religious experience. okay? okay - they’re also both very kinky and switches but tbh.... will was made to Dom hannibal like that’s the reason he exists he could drag that old bitch around by a leash and hannibal would be in heaven HANNIBAL WOULD CALL HIM SIR - the first time they have sex hannibal comes like immediately but he isn’t embarrassed because he’s hannibal fucking lecter and hannibal lecter doesn’t get embarrassed - i have a hc for their favorite sex positions but i’m not gonna put that here because i don’t want yall calling me crazy any more than you probably already do but if you wanna know just DM me all i do is think about them fucking it’s a curse - okay no more dirty stuff abigail called hannibal “dad” on more than one occasion and it was half-joking but it also felt comfortable to her; she never thought to call will “dad” because he’s a weirdo and never knew her as much as he knew his idea of her - hannibal taught her to play piano at the cliff house - beverly is pansexual!!! - brian and jimmy kissed one time when they were drunk and they NEVER talk about it EVER - chiyoh is straight probably. i know, i know, everyone says she’s a lesbian and if she’s a lesbian to you that’s awesome! she’s a lesbian! but idk i just think she’s SO fucking straight and tbh i mourn bc that’s my wife. she could MAYBE be bicurious... - chiyoh is non-monogamous and doesn’t do serious relationships, she doesn’t like the idea of being tied to one person ever since she left the lecter castle - she helped hannibal and will escape after The Fall; she told hannibal she would continue to watch over him and i think she did, she got them a boat and got them the fuck out of there - MOLLY IS DOING SO MUCH BETTER WITHOUT WILL. SHE’S SO GLAD SHE GOT OUT OF THAT WHEN SHE DID. she has a good, long talk with alana and finds out all the shit about him and hannibal that will never told her (and it was a lot), gets drunk and burns all his shit, and then washes her hands of the whole thing; moves to a different state, gets a girlfriend, and never thinks about will again

okay i’m capping it there or i’m never gonna stop!! i’m not tagging anyone cuz i think everyone has done this by now lmao but if you’re a mutual who hasn’t and you want to just do it and say i tagged you!! mwah!!!!
