Hold Your Boyfriend Like The Most Precious Bug

S2 Hannibal when Will was in prison

Girl dinneeeeerr! Yum! yum!

The quote is something my friend Noah said about this scene. I cannot stop thinking about it

Kafka was so right fuck this stupid baka life

Priest Hotch BUT he’s casually homophobic and the biggest closet case ever seen. He never left the south (is Virginia the south?) has his good ol’ country boy values instilled into him by his horrible father. That is until a case brings Spencer Reid with the BAU to his church and his life gets flipped upside down.

The BAU has to work with Hotch on the case and his casual homophobic remarks get under Spencer’s skin, but he’s used to homophobes. What he’s not used to is being so physically attracted to homophobes that he can’t think straight. Hotch is the sexiest man he’s ever seen. He hates him. He wants to fuck him. What happens when Hotch casually mentions his dad beat the gay demon out of him when he was a kid and Spencer realizes this guy is so far into the closet he’s in Narnia?

Internalized (and externalized too ig) homophobia, enemies to lovers, unresolved childhood trauma, angst, sinful sinful sex, and eventual happy ending 50k slow burn

Now I feel good :)

How I love him in that red coat.

Spencer Reid. Sad little boy. Eager to please. Eager to do anything right at all. Hurting more than he can ever explain. Just looking for someone to tell him he's good. All he's ever wanted is to be good. He'll take what he can get. He'll take it happily.

Aaron Hotchner. Big boss man. Stoic but full of burgeoning anger. More anger than he can justify. More anger than he knows what to do with. Devilish smile. Sadistic streak. A father figure whose father figure was a cruel cruel man. Violence begets violence, hate begets hate. Hate he doesn't fully understand.

What do you get when a kicked little puppy meets a man who's happy to hurt him? Nothing good. Nothing good at all.
