Hannibal blog

[fleshpoesis]

M, 19

This blog is curated for all things Hannibal and taboo. I tried to restrain my appetite for posting about these things, but the hunger persisted. Compared to my other blogs, this one is more unfiltered, abundant, and chaotic.

First Hannibal fic—a bloody dove, served dead. Bite carefully: https://archiveofourown.org/works/69407781/chapters/179980886

Message me, I’m always on the lookout for someone who matches my freak. Or, at the least, to dissect Hannibal with.

(P.S. I’m not as pretentious as I sound here, I can be normal, but when is that fun?)

Will time traveling and seeing scrawny 13 year-old Hannibal in the orphanage having his throat smacked with a wooden paddle because he cannot speak.

Will time traveling and seeing 14 year-old Hannibal wetting his bed in the orphanage and being punished via starvation and spankings.

Will time traveling and seeing 15 year-old Hannibal living in France—waking up from a night terror and crying the first time he’s held by his uncle because he is so touch-starved.

Will time traveling and seeing Hannibal be rejected by his aunt.

Will time traveling and seeing an even younger version of Hannibal starving and being abused in the cabin, and the events leading to the death of his family—and the soup.

One day post-fall, Will finds Hannibal magically de-aged to a teenager (but still mentally his 50 year-old self). Being unable to speak distresses Hannibal. Will takes care of him and makes sure he eats anything he wants because he is so skinny and gets cold easily. Will hand-feeding mute Hannibal and bathing him and dressing him in warm clothes that are two sizes too big and telling him it’s okay if he wants to be held and treated like a boy tonight—a boy he never got to be with anyone. Imagine Hannibal trying to speak but failing and instinctually flinching because he is used to having his throat smacked by an annoyed staff member at the orphanage—and Will reassures him he is safe and that he doesn’t need to speak. That he’s Will’s beloved boy no matter what.

Will Graham & his tendency for taking in strays.

I got on new meds and I’m not having thoughts of immense violence and gore anymore guys. Sorry to disappoint.

Re: Hannibal's "I let you know me. See me...but you didn't want it"

I think this is especially meaningful to Hannibal (besides his narcissism) because he didn't want to show himself to anybody before. He wanted company, and he loved it enough to feel heartbroken over Will's betrayal--but Hannibal looked at Will and wanted him to know him, see him, love him.

And it's the fact that he knows Will can look at him exactly as he is and understand him. He is capable of accepting him. So this rejection is a rejection of Hannibal's true self and not his persona. Will can taste Hannibal exactly but refuses to swallow. This is horrible--it is being abandoned by someone you wanted to be loved by, like a father that leaves you without apology.

And Will replies, "Didn't I?"

And he wants to kill him. Didn't you? You already didn't. There is no more wondering. Will had the chance to love Hannibal and gave him up instead.

How well does Will understand abandonment? Betrayal? His faceless mother and loveless lovers and Hannibal Lecter. He understands what he's done and bleeds for his faults, then asks for forgiveness.

Every once in a while I’m reminded by the fandom of how much Will sucks. @asadstatue and I know this profoundly and we pretty much live by it.

“Will can taste Hannibal exactly but refuses to swallow”

But it’s not just tasting. He swishes him inside of his mouth and envelopes him in warmth and then spits him out to be abandoned onto the cold hard floor. Not even mopped up. Just left there as nothing.

And that’s worse than tasting. That’s savoring and then refusing to let it nourish and be part of you.

That’s wasting. And that is worse than death.

That’s an insult to life itself.

And if he can’t appreciate his taste then he doesn’t deserve the sweet taste of fantasy nor his bowels to digest it for the matter.

Good lord it is too early in the morning to cry for that old man-eater again-

Will who's had rescues and strays must (probably does not, cause his dogs also have another function for him) understand this better than anyone else. You take one in, give it a home, bathe it and nurture it and let it bite you because it's a violent creature and it's not even its fault, then you throw the poor thing back out in the snow because "yeah that's the most I could give you, bye, I saw what you are but I'm not interested anymore."

Nothing is worse than not being wanted and chosen because of what you are while they have been capable of seeing it, actually.

oh, hello! 🖤 happy weekend. here is, if you're into it, 13k words of sexy, absurd, morally indefensible murder family smut. you heard me! it's all three of them, and I think it really earns the "Someone Help Will Graham" tag. can't say I didn't warn you.

no worries if it's not your thing. it's not always my thing, but sometimes, it really is. mwah!

I just got the notification for this and JUMPED here. I haven’t read it yet but I KNOW it’s going to be amazing. READ IT READ IT READ IT.

[fleshpoesis]

Amazing and vile, yet respectful and muted. The balance was done in a moral way. Lots of build up to make that final scene (or scenes in this case) really stick.

I love ao3 and its lack of censorship. Also this fic made me like my nipple piercings more.

Excerpts from the script of NBC’s Hannibal on Hannibal and his not-so-subtle fusion of curiosity, desire and obsession over Will’s unique brain…

Hannibal Season 4 (not ai)

[fleshpoesis]

Do you guys ever want to kill the person who you feel changed you the most? The person who shaped who you became. Why do you know who I was before. Why did I let you in. How did you do that without me noticing. Why do I still care and how can I get rid of it?

i will never understand people who are put off by the age gap in hannigram mostly because of the obvious reasons (they are both Grown Ass Men & there are so many other things way more fucked up about them) but also because i personally would like it to be worse. i think the well established & respected doctor lecter should be hunting 20 something angel-faced will graham down

[orpheuslament]

youll allow me to return to this concept for a moment. young hugh dancy voted prettiest boy & prettiest girl in oxford playing a will graham that looks entirely out of place in the halls of quantico. people look at him, nervous & hesitant & wide-eyed & see a spring lamb being led to slaughter. they catch a glimpse of him & think he will break the moment hes confronted with the real horror that comes with standing face to face with the worst of humanity. sure, rumour says he is brilliant & he can put pieces together that no one would even consider belong to the same picture, but he will surely not last. except that if anyone bothered to Look they would be able to catch a glimpse of something deep & dark shifting beneath his skin, something thats clawing & aching to be let out. & when hannibal is called to consult on the first real case will is involved in he does what he does best & he Looks, & he is immediately enamoured with what he sees, & he thinks this boy is just begging to be molded & sculptured into something terrible & beautiful. so like the artist he is he takes a chisel & begins to carve. only what comes out of the marble is something he could never have predicted. it is terrible, yes, & it is indisputably beautiful, but for the first time in his life he feels what began as another little project to satiate his curiosity slip entirely out of his control. & he is incredibly pleased

No one can be fully aware of another human being unless we love them. By that love, we see potential in our beloved. Through that love, we allow our beloved to see their potential. Expressing that love, our beloved’s potential comes true.

Hi, hello, i want more of this

The hints of darker characteristics that we see in Will throughout the show are always so interesting. Baggy clothes hide a muscular physique and the notion of strength. His character lends itself to the acquaintance with something quietly unsettling in their gaze, the stranger’s car idling on the side of a dark road. He openly admits that he looked through Hannibal’s patient notes to read about Margot. “Drinking with a patient?” has the snap of interrogatory jealousy that seems to cool when Hannibal mentions his own therapist, but then he addresses Bedelia by her name and that very title, never mentioned. Alana tells Jack she avoids being alone with Will. “I don’t think we’ve ever been in a room alone together.” She then says she’s never noticed— a lie. Will slowly circles around her in the empty lecture hall. “The Chesapeake Ripper wants to perform. Every brutal choice has elegance, grace.” He gets unusually upset by the notion that the butchery in the hotel bathtub is the Ripper’s work. He spins sentiments over corpses, blasé. “Death makes angels of us all… and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as raven’s claws.” He casts a long shadow, never erased, even when he lets the glare of conventional society’s light bleach him to the bone…… ideas like Will having a sort of dark parasocial fixation with the Ripper or having been just as invasively obsessed with Hannibal as Hannibal was with him are very tantalizing ones as a result, in my mind
