In my Hozier era if u can’t tell
@willgrahamsmilf on TikTok
it's so funny cause you can see that they never watched the show, cause Hannibal draws self insert art of him and his boyfriend as Patroclus and Aquiles (no gayer thing on earth, but still the least gay thing they did)
Gen Z “Alpha-Bros” on TikTok idolizing Mads Mikkelsen’s Hannibal and wanting to be just like him is so funny to me because
1) That’s a fag
2) Hannibal would immediately put them on his list, though the meat would probably be too rancid to eat
3) Hannibal’s purest desire in this world is to be Will’s house-wife who wears a cute pink little apron with a bow on it and who always has supper on the table for when his husband gets back from fishing
I believe Abigail was a representation of a the possibility of a "normal" life for Will and Hannibal, together.
Like, i agree with some people in the thought that they had more of a connection with what she represented, than who she was. The thought of them being together.
Don't get me wrong i do feel like they had a connection with her (Hannibal cause she reminds him of Misha, and Will cause she brings his paternal side). But she was nothing more than a gift, in Hannibal's eyes. Something to give to Will, if he followed him to this life, or to take away if he felt betrayed.
So her death is even more meaningful if you think that it's basically Hannibal saying "If you can't have this life with me, then you can't have this life with anyone else". She dies, and their normal life dies with, like the stag did.
Will tried to keep her alive, cause he wanted that life. But he had been too late to that realization, the realization that he picked Hannibal. And Hannibal took that as him picking Jack
Will hallucinating Abigail was more of him trying to understand why he wanted to go after a man that had done so much harm to him, and to others. He found it hard to accept the fact he wanted to be/ become a terrible man.
Also,, I don't think she would survive a family life with them, she would die in Will's or maybe in Hannibal's hands (possibly as a show how devoted they are to each other, willing to kill).
Because no person can survive their relationship if not themselves.
So yeah, in all probabilities, Abigail (Father's joy), was destined to die in her father's arms, it was just a matter of which one.
(apart from the year differences) it would make sense cause both Hannibal and House studied at John's Hopkins medical school and could have known each other.
But i imagine they didn't go to a hospital more like Hannibal called House and House got interested on what happened so he went with Wilson to help them
What if I was insane and said Hannibal x House m.d crossover.
Wilson: They're serial killers House! And not to mention CANNIBALS!?
House: Waste not want not, Wilson
Meanwhile hannigram are vibing as if they're not fresh out of the sea and Will is glaring at anyone and everyone while Hannibal complains about hospital food.
sometimes i feel like all we need to do to get a hannibal season 4 is just to bother streaming services
like let's comment on Netflix or on Prime's instagram/ twitter account. It's normal behavior for fans
cause all Bryan Fuller need is funding, so let's annoy streaming services until they fund him :)
OMG I NEED TO WRITE THIS-
hannigram au where you are born knowing your soulmate’s future biggest secret.
will has known his whole life about the "Chesapeake Ripper"-- the serial killer identity of his soulmate. he's had his time to come to terms with it. to accept that he will never be normal; but nor will his soulmate.
and so the first time the name shows up in the papers-- the first time his soulmate's kills appear as glossy exclusives on tattlecrime.com-- will makes goddamn sure that he's the first one assigned to investigate the case.

Hannigram is not queer bait, Will is
He is the queer at the end of the fishing hook, baiting Hannibal into biting it
i love to call Hannibal pathetic for this, cause he is such a calculated man, yet he risks everything for Will
He risks his life, his mind, his freedom
And at the end, he fully lets Will throw him off the cliff, cause he was truly vulnerable to him. And it's something that man would have never done before meeting Will.
With that, it's clear that Will changed Hannibal in so many ways, cause he turned him weak to his emotions, he became empathetic
Sometimes I watch the show and try to think of Hannibal’s perspective and it’s a total trip. Like. Imagine you’ve been able to control and pick and choose your emotions and reactions your whole life, due to being somehow psychopath-adjacent. And the only time you couldn’t was when you were little with your baby sister, and it’s probable that as your brain matured, the possibility of feeling and forming connections like that dried up entirely. You read the psychiatric journals, and occasionally there’s something about a man who can connect with others so deeply he can become an echo of them. And then you meet this man, and he mocks your comment about eye contact while holding yours.
An understanding passes between both of you that you have hidden depths. Instead of killing him, you bring him breakfast, and make him dinner, and serve him drinks. Instead of being able to toy with his mind without a care, you think of him and your chest clenches, and your gut swoops, and his face and voice and his rude little barbs invade your mind like glittering parasites that you can’t remove. These feelings are alien, and they’re also yours. You know, deep down, why you’re letting him live, why you stare after him, why you toe the line of risking it all for him. But you don’t want to face it. It’s terrifying, this horizon of who you are and can be that looms before you with no choice of your own.
Framing him presents a convenient opportunity for ridding yourself of this thing he brings on in you, this total lack of control, this fever-dream surrender that breaches the walls of your mind and the tics and tells of your body so effortlessly— but you miss him. You don’t miss anyone, and the one person you do is more of an imago that never was able to grow into her own real person. But the you you’ve helplessly become certainly does. You’ve become an addict. You cannot let him rot when his presence gave your monochrome world color, you can’t quit the drug you’ve always shunned. This is all a devil’s bargain, certainly, but you’ve already damned yourself, and all that’s left to do is plunge further. Oh and by the way. The infuriating man in question looks like this:
Like okay then, good luck not having the crashout of the century 😭
