Also worth mentioning that in Dracula the first one to give Lucy a blood transfusion was her fiancé. And after that he felt like they were really married. Just saying, yk. It surely doesn't have a single thing to do with a particular podcast in which the themes of marriage and honesty and devotion may or may not arise.
Thinking about the eroticism of blood and blood transfusions in literature. In particular the way that it’s used in Dracula. That Lucy Westerna’s life is prolonged through transfusions by her three suitors, the three men who loved her.
And I’m definitely not thinking about this in connection to any audio drama podcasts I’ve been listening to lately. Because, surely, this podcast—which contains countless references to pop culture and Samuel Taylor Coleridge—didn’t intentionally reference this literary history with a plot relevant blood transfusion.
It’s the gayest thing I have ever heard.
Every time I get reminded that hannigram is canon my day gets a little better.
THE gayest thing to ever happen.
i don’t endorse him or anything but like. what else are you supposed to do if you’re named hannibal
Currently listening to Camp Here and There.
And I need to rant about Slavic names in podcasts. It's not hate, I enjoy the show and the way it's written, I just think it might be somewhat educational to write my thoughts down.
Dude there is no way there was ever a guy named Elijah in Arkhangelsk. I think they were going for Илья (Ilya if transliterated)???
I just need you to understand that the population of Arkhangelsk is less than 300.000 people. It is as far as I'm aware a city mostly celebrated for it's military heritage. So quite conservative as you can tell (as are most of Russian cities). I can believe in a guy from Moscow named Elijah. But Arkhangelsk😭😭😭???
And it's not me being a hater, honestly! If anything I'm delighted. I like the guy so far (as an interesting character. He is obviously going to be super evil). But it's just something that I've noticed about podcasts and slavic people. The names usually are either just incorrect or being used incorrectly. The most noticeable example being Nikola Orsinov, as I'm sure some are aware.
I don't know what it is that causes all these mistakes and I would really like to find out. I am aware that Slavic languages may be confusing (esp the ones using Cyrillic alphabet) but I believe it takes about as much as a quick Google to find the essential information such as the usage of surnames with the right endings and transliterated Slavic names. And I don't think it's a lot to ask for.
These characters represent Slavic people whether they were intended to or not. And being represented carelessly is not a pleasant thing. I understand that my little manifesto here won't be a game changer. But if I am able to get to as much as a single person reading this I shall be greatful.
Thanks! Please don't come for my head! Love ya!

Ну и если кто-то решит заглянуть в переводчик или на просторах подкастного тамблера меня найдут русскоговорящие, то ещё раз спасибо за внимание. Я очень тревожный человек и делиться своим мнением бывает тяжело, так что, Христом Богом прошу, не нужно кидать в меня камнями, если я что-то не то сказала. Люблю, целую❤
Actually going insane about the new Red Valley episode. I love Clive Schill I love him so much. AND HIS DYNAMIC WITH PAM??? INSANE.
I appreciate the fact that Alana was never an "I can fix him" type of woman. She was more like "He is too damaged for me to fix" and that is sad for Will but good for her. Must be nice. While Hannibal is like "i love him as damaged as he is, he doesn't need fixing, he is my perfect boo"
will graham reinvented having a slut era. yeah sure jessica you hooked up with a guy on tinder? i fucked my psychiatrist who's also a sociopathic cannibal who's also a lithuanian count.
DUDE NOT THE PUS CRANK CHOIR😨😨😨😭😭😭😭
Now THAT I did not expect.
that is the most hannigram thing I've seen today
everyone has a ship thats just: theyre perfect. they hate each other. theyre married. they havent spoken in 15 years. they have date nights three times a week. theyre divorced. theyre pining, its unrequited. its requited. theyre starcrossed. theyre meant to be. theyre doomed by the narrative. they love each other. theyve never held hands. they wont stop making out at parties. they cant look each other in the eye
