happy 10th anniversary of the SCENE OF ALL TIME to those who celebrate! 🥳🎉

[mrsgurgle]

So many years ago, on a social media where I don't exist anymore, somebody (if it's you? Please come yell with me ❤️) said wouldn't it be great if we had a fannibal reunion celebration at the uffizi? And I popped that thing in my calendar on the spot.

Obviously that didn't work out for me, but I like to imagine that one of us will be there in a flower crown. And when I *do* get to visit Rome over new years, maybe I can make my little pilgrimage then.

[bayareafannibals]

I still think warmly of all our bay area fannibals ❤️

Where to find us

Hey fannibal friends,

With the recent move by tmblr to sanitize the site, it’s become clear that this isn’t going to be a fandom space much longer. So if you’ve been meaning to get in touch with us, now is the time! You’ve got options:

–DM your email address for an invite to our Slack. This is where all our event and meat-up planning happens!

–Follow us on Twitter (managed by the wonderful @caelav ) as @bayareannibals

–Look for us on @pillowfort-io as BayAreaFannibals when their maintenance period is over

Take care of yourselves and go back up your blogs! We’ll see you on the other side.

❤️❤️❤️

All the best,

@mrsgurgle

[bayareafannibals]

Update: we've got our name on pillowfort, but it's been challenging to set it up with all the up/down.

So! If you'd like to keep in touch, get on our Slack. You can DM us on Twitter for an invite, or email us at: BayAreaFannibals @ gmail

See you out there lovelies ❤️

Spiffy new icon!

The wonderful and talented @mxpopsiclestix has crafted us a logo image! Commissioned by the equally wonderful (no longer Bay Area but still one-of-us) @consulting-queer. Thanks both of you ❤️❤️❤️

Gaze upon it! It's beautiful!

A wonderful evening potlucking with Bay Area Fannibals! There was wine, the lovely @electrarhodes visiting from out of town, and much discussion of the film genre which we have dubbed "Danish Yikes."

Want to join us next time? DM your email address for an invitation to our Slack and help plan our next event!

Paradise, Calif., Destroyed By Wildfire, Authorities Say

The entire town of 27,000 people was evacuated in front of the wildfire in Northern California. The fire is the latest in a string of disastrous wildfires to hit the state in the past year.

[bayareafannibals]

I'm thinking today of everyone affected by these fires. Please be safe, friends. If you're safe from the fires but can smell smoke, check the air quality near you (https://airnow.gov) and consider a particle mask, PDF guide here:

Take care of each other out there.

Amnesiac

He sits by Hannibal’s bedside for three days, changing his IV fluids and emptying his catheter bag as necessary. He dutifully administers antibiotics at regular intervals and wipes down his body with a warm washcloth twice a day. He changes the dressings on Hannibal’s sutured wounds and then does the same for himself. In all this time, Hannibal remains unconscious.

And then, on the fourth day, he finally wakes up.

“Wh…”

Will gets up as quickly as he can and sits on the edge of Hannibal’s bed. He takes Hannibal’s hand in his own.

“I’m here.” He kisses the inside of Hannibal’s wrist. “I’m here.”

Hannibal looks around, frowning. “Wh...”

“We’re in a motel,” Will says. “I’ve been watching the news. Everyone thinks we’re dead. Well, except for that back-alley doctor who stitched us up, I guess. I think we’re free.”

Hannibal shakes his head. “Wh…who are you?”

Will blinks. Of all the things he’d tried to anticipate when he pulled both of them off the bluff, this wasn’t one of them. How long was Hannibal without oxygen? How hard had he hit his head on the rocks?

“I’m Will,” he says. “Do I seem familiar to you? At all?”

Hannibal studies his face for a long while, reaches out to touch his hair. Will leans into his palm, but Hannibal pulls away.

“Yes… no,” Hannibal says. He shakes his head. “Yes. Strange but familiar. You… you’re my friend?”

Will can’t help but laugh. “That’s putting it mildly. But yes. We’re… friends.”

Hannibal eases himself into a half-sitting, half-lying sort of sprawl on the bed. “I need a cigarette.”

Will stops laughing. “Hannibal, you don’t smoke.”

“I’ve been smoking for thirty years,” comes the indignant reply. “And my name is Mads, not Hannibal.”

(the end? possibly tbc?)

“Your name is… Mess?” Will asks. “M-e-s-s?”

“M-a-d-s,” Hannibal spells out. “It’s a proper old Danish name, although few would argue that I’m a proper old Danish man!” He laughs out loud at his own sense of humor, then winces and touches his belly. He throws back the sheet and sees his bandages. “What the fuck is this! What the fuck is all of this!”

Will is as stunned by Hannibal dropping f-bombs as he is by Hannibal declaring Danish nationality. It has to be a side effect of the pain meds, Will thinks, or a combination of pain meds and head injury. Or maybe they’re both dead and his version of hell is to finally wind up with Hannibal only to discover he’s a foul-mouthed stranger.

Welcome to the 4th Fannibal Gift Exchange!

Each year, us Fannibals exchange presents with one another, it’s cute, fun, and an opportunity to get something Hannibal themed for christmas when your family won’t get you anything Hannibal related because they think you “have too much Hannibal stuff.”

Anyway! To business! Because this is a physical exchange there are lots of rules, I’m sorry!

You MUST adhere to deadlines, these deadlines are below, they’re fixed and non-negotiable. If you can’t adhere to them please do not sign up for my sanity’s sake more than anything!

You MUST stick to the budget, your gift must be at least worth $20.00. You’re more than welcome to go over but you cannot go under.

Your package MUST be tracked, and I must have the ability to track this package, and you MUST send this information to me by the requested date.

You MUST be able to adhere to any allergy/dietary requirements of your partner. (Please do not buy your gift until you’re matched just in case!)

You MUST have online archived proof which I can access of at least 6 months of Fannibal activity (that’s reblogging posts, interacting with the community etc.) I will check. Please don’t be disheartened if I cannot accept you for this reason.

Your gift MUST be Hannibal related in some sense, if your partner doesn’t want NSFW gifts, you MUST adhere to this.

If you have not been prompt with your gift dispatch in prev. exchanges, I’m afraid you cannot take part in the exchange now.

Here are the IMPORTANT DATES! PLEASE PLEASE READ!

Sign Ups: Between now and November 3rd (ending midnight GMT) or earlier if spaces fill!

Pairing Emails: Between November 3rd and ASAP

Gift Buying/Dispatching: Between ASAP and December 3rd

THIS MEANS YOUR GIFTS MUST BE IN THE MAIL AND PROOFS SENT TO ME BY DECEMBER 3RD! THIS IS A MUST!

Opening Gifts and Photo Posting: December 25th!

Extra Info + How to Sign Up!

This time, you’ll be paired as far as possible, if there’s an odd number there will be a three way exchange. This means that by and large the person you send the parcel to will be the person who sends the parcel to you.

Participants will only be paired with other participants in their continent.

Because of this, there needs to be at least 2 participants per continent for an exchange to be possible in that continent.

When you post about the exchange, please use #FGE2018

Because my time is super limited, (full time work, full time student, full time fannibal, my life is a mess) I can only take about 50 people into the exchange, my patreons get priority spaces. Confirmation you’re in the exchange will happen as soon as possible after the 3rd (or beforehand if it fills up quick.) But if it’s possible for me to sort this for more people I will.

To sign up, you need to send an email to [email protected] with the following information:

Username (tumblr/twitter only!)

FULL NAME and address including country!

SFW or NSFW?

Do you have any allergies?

Anything else I or your partner should know?

I’m sorry that was so long! If you have any questions please let me know!

This first rule following bit is boring, I’m so sorry, but it’s ALWAYS worth it for the gifts on the big day!

[idontfindyouthatinteresting]

YOU ONLY HAVE UNTIL SAT 3RD TO SIGN UP!

[bayareafannibals]

It's potluck time!

Hey fannibals of the Bay Area (and northern California, and visitors) it's almost time to feast together. The likely date is November 9th, but we'll be meeting in a member's home so for more details you need to join our Slack. Send a DM if you'd like to be a part; we'd love to see you there!

[main-fandoms-deactivated2026051]

Hey, this is just a question but for all of the Fannibals that have been in the fandom longer…. how do you guys do it? I watched Hannibal this last winter, but I feel like I get so impatient waiting for the show sometimes xD How do you get all that patience??

[byk23]

I need help from Fannibals!

I checked all the physical bookstores in southeastern Wisconsin. Not a one carries this magazine. I contacted the publisher and they won’t ship to me.

I will pay for the magazine and shipping if someone can get me a copy. (Yes I am serious.)

Reaching out to Chicago, New York and international Fannibals in London and elsewhere.

Thank you so much for the help.

Please signal boost.

Drawing this pair was fun! Bit challenging but fun.
