Hello! I’ll try and explain the issue concisely.

Yes, the Hannibal fandom does have and RPF tag, which is used for...well, RPF. In the interest of people actually seeing and reading the fic, most people would also cross-tag it with Hannibal (TV). If fannibals are tracking a tag on ao3, that is, nine dentists out of ten, the one they’ll be tracking.

It hadn’t been an issue until last week, when someone decided to go trolling through main fandom tags to report RPF that had been cross-tagged. This affected both the Hannibal fandom and the Call Me By Your Name fandom. Fannibal authors appealed ao3′s “cease and desist” emails, but the staff was adamant that, even though this had been a fandom convention for years, the regular tag must be removed from the fic.

(For the record, ao3 staff threatened authors with strikes on their accounts. Here’s lookin’ at you, Jane C. Volunteer.)

The thing with Hannibal fandom--Hannigram shippers, to be specific--is that we like to ship all of Hugh’s characters from various shows and movies with all of Mads’ characters. Some of these rare pairs are very well known--Spacedogs, Tristhad, Valhalla Enchanted--to the point where they have their own established sub-fandoms. There are many other ships, as well, though they aren’t as common. Still, we’ll literally ship them all with each other. Fannibals don’t care what you write in there.

As with Madancy (the RPF in question), we tag all these rare pairs with Hannibal (TV), because none of these ships would exist had it not been for Hannibal and Hannigram. But, considering so many Madancy fics had been reported, many of us started talking about what we would do regarding the rare pair fics.

After much discussion on twitter and some great input from fannibals here on tumblr (we had no idea so many people didn’t like the cross-tagging until the issue came up!), the concept of the Hannibal Extended Universe was formed. It’s a branch fandom, much like C6D is for Due South. (I had never even heard of another giant rare pair fandom before.)

So now, we’re trying to spread the word and get all the rare pair fics retagged to list the fandom as Hannibal Extended Universe instead of Hannibal (TV). I have high hopes that it will eventually become a categorized and filterable fandom! It’s currently stalled at 23 pages, and I know there are more rare pair fics that haven’t been switched. Baby steps, though.

Some OneChar for Valhalla Enchanted week, which I didn’t even know was happening until yesterday!

[Trope Fics on Tumblr]

In a land where alphas and omegas are rare, the omega prince Charmont is in need of an alpha to see him through heat until his betrothed arrives from a distant kingdom. The recently freed slave one-eyed mute is just hideous enough to be the perfect temporary alpha to service the prince. Falling in love is the last thing anyone wants.

“I have put my faith in you on this delicate matter. I hope that faith has not been misplaced.”

“No, Sir Edgar. Not at all. I've been very discreet. Found exactly what the prince needs.”

The door opened but One Eye didn't look up to see who the voices belonged to. It didn't matter, he could not refuse the job. When he had escaped from his cage and captors, from the life of aggression they had forced him into, he had found himself in this land. He was free at last, but with freedom came the hunger and the cold. He needed to make money and as an alpha there were options available to him in a place such as this. This kingdom had few omegas and even fewer alphas, and most of them nobility, those who could pay. He had not thought of pride, only of hunger when he had taken work in the heat house. For three months he had become the favourite of a Lady Suzette before her husband returned from his travels. It had been quiet then. Where she had admired his build and the exotic story spun by his employer, others were repulsed by his hard look - his scars, his missing eye. He was sure he would be set out again until the strange little servant had arrived from the palace looking for an impossible combination of repulsion and discretion. There were few as repulsive and discreet as the one eyed mute.

And so now he sat to learn his fate. Perhaps a young lady or lord whose mate was away from court.

“Oh but he is an ugly beast, perfect!” The man he had heard referred to as Sir Edgar seemed pleased. He was used to being spoken about as though not present, and yet he found he disliked this man for it - his tone, his manner. “Perfect indeed, we wouldn't want anyone for the prince that he might come to want. A shame his fertile heat has come before his intended has arrived and betrothal sealed. Leave us.”

The alpha looked up then, unsure if it were he that was being asked to leave. This was not the case, it seemed, as the servant left the room and he met Edgar’s sneering gaze.

“Now listen here beast, you are to service the prince. I understand you are mute so discretion will be ensured, this pleases me. When his betrothed arrives and the prince is crowned and wed, we would prefer that it is believed Char is a virgin. It is what they expect and we will give them nothing less. The kingdom of his intended does not abide our practice of surrogates. He must believe Char suffered his heats alone. If you are anything less than discreet it will mean your head.”

Edgar was pulling on gloves as he spoke, a smug look on his face as he took the alpha in.

“Yes. I think I'll be quite pleased to introduce you to the young prince.” The words were snarled out before the man swept from the room.

I just had to draw something for Valhalla Enchanted week! 

Funny how... Right on the day i discovered the ship i saw that there was a Valhalla Enchanted right this week. Amazing. Tbh it looks more like Hannigram but i promise its One-eye and Char.. 

But yeah here’s a protective One-eye holding his wounded prince. Guess they got into a fight with someone?
