Had A Dream Where Hannibal Got Renewed For A 4th Season And The Only Advertising Campaign Was That Hannibal

TOMODACHI LIFE 2 RAHHHHHH

If you think Bedelia told Will that Hannibal was in love with him, you're wrong.

When Will asks her plainly, “Is Hannibal in love with me?”, Bedelia does not offer the comfort or constraint of a simple “yes.” Instead, she replies: “He daily feels a stab of hunger and finds nourishment at the very sight of you.”

This is no evasion, but precision. Bedelia is the consummate observer, the only one perhaps capable of reading Hannibal accurately not through empathy but through pure intellect, refrains deliberately from naming the feeling as love. Because she knows better.

To say Hannibal is “in love” would be to reduce him to the category of the ordinary. It would be to align his experience of desire with that of humans, those who love and pine, who miss and regret, who fall and suffer. But Hannibal does not fall. He devours. He consumes. His longing is not sentimental but carnivorous. He is not wounded by love but sharpened by appetite.

Hannibal and Will both occupy a liminal space beyond the structures that define conventional emotion. They are not simply men, but something Other. Beasts, Fallen Angels, mirrors of each other’s darkness. For Bedelia to claim that Hannibal loved Will would not only be false, it would betray her own intelligence, and her understanding of what Hannibal is. Hannibal does not love in human terms. He feels hunger, fascination, aesthetic rapture, a sublime compulsion that transcends the human vocabulary of affection.

And that is precisely why Bedelia’s choice of words matters. He finds nourishment at the very sight of you. That is not love. That is need on a mythic scale. So, no, Bedelia did not tell Will that Hannibal was in love with him. She told him something much worse.

You're the reason I'm addicted to the taste, but afraid of the bite

Cabaret!AU?

"wading into the quiet of the stream" must feel like taking a shit after a long hard day

you ever read a fic that makes you sob your heart out when you should be sleeping because

this one from @cervviidae pried me open and pulled the tears out so skillfully I’m left feeling soft and changed and in complete awe

feeling like Hannibal Lecter after I turned random ingredients I threw together in my head into a delicious, edible meal with a nice presentation

Thank you!! Hannibal would have a mewtwo wouldn't he? And Abigail with an eevee 🥲 she's just too precious

Will is so much better than me, my soul would have left my body if I found Georgia under my bed
