Gatekeeping is so good and important

What's she saying in the photo

the thing that really gets me about mizumono is that will doesn’t even fight back. he saw alana mangled outside. he knows jack might be dead. he has a loaded gun in hand. but not once does he try to hurt hannibal. he doesn’t even shoot. will just lets him caress his cheek, fingers curling into his hair. there’s no resistance. when hannibal stabs him, will leans into it. he doesn’t want to escape. and it all hurts so badly because it’s not like will tricked hannibal into loving him; he simply persuaded him that he might love him back. because that’s what will thought hannibal did to him in s1, and only now does he realise that maybe it was more real for hannibal than he thought. or worse, that maybe he wants to be with hannibal regardless of whether hannibal genuinely loves him. that maybe it’s worth it to be close to him, even if his touch splits his stomach open

bro got confused about the framing part

hannigram are not enemies to lovers they’re friends to lovers who keep breaking up, except each breakup is more devastating than the last

thinking about the first time will sees hannibal after three years. how the highly sophisticated man he remembers now looks wearier, his hair a little shorter, the lines in his face a little deeper. how he’s been degraded but still holds himself with pride and dignity, refusing to be humiliated. how will is a married man and really thought he was doing okay but knew he was kidding himself the moment he laid eyes on hannibal again because it doesn’t matter how much time passes he’s still horribly in love with him and never truly moved on. he knows he lost his heart the day hannibal gave himself up, and it didn’t start beating again until this moment, three years later. and the ache of it hurts so much more than it did before. if anything, the longer they’re separated the worse it gets

s1 will graham found out hannibal helped someone hide the body of a murder victim and he wasn’t even like what the FUCK he just went “well you’re really bad at it lol”

this and how will never gets weirded out by the fact that he has to eat ppl in s2b. we never get a dramatic scene of him driving back from hannibal’s house after dinner and pulling over to throw up on the side of the road or something, sir doesn’t even pretend to care

I love the "where else would I go" line because it's romantic, like a sort of promise, I'll stay by you're side, I won't leave. But it's also defeat, an accusation, you made sure that I don't have anywhere else to go, you made sure that there's only you. And it's an admission, a decision he's made or is still making, I choose to be on your side, there's no turning back for me.

imagine Will becoming almost scarily overprotective of Hannibal after the fall, because Hannibal was never supposed to be capable of getting hurt and yet there he was, his injuries worse than Will's, and Will is suddenly forced to be reminded that Hannibal is mortal after all and can leave his world for good if he gets hurt too badly.

nbc hannibal is a romcom purely because the central conflict results from hannibal not understanding his feelings for will and being a total loser about it because he’s never had a friend or been in love before which makes him act so silly and do the most insane things that will interprets being framed for murder as hannibal having something against him (as anyone would), and this series of misunderstandings is not resolved until hannibal’s ex girlfriend and former psychiatrist tells will that hannibal is so in love with him it makes him look stupid. after that will does not hesitate to break hannibal out of jail and douse himself in blood which is this show’s equivalent to the protagonist running to the airport to stop their love interest from leaving the country and marrying someone else before they’ve had the chance to confess that they’ve loved them ever since they’ve known them

thinks about how mads mikkelsen said the only thing going through hannibal’s mind when he realized will was going to tip them both over the cliff was overwhelming joy and peace and “so be it” -> goes insane

post-fall hannigram would be so lame. will sees hannibal using the lawnmower incorrectly and gets hit with such an overwhelming sense of lust that he has to retire to the seaside and sit with his feet in the waves for three hours. hannibal sees will imperceptibly smiling at him in the firelight and has to lie across the chaise motionless and unseeing for the rest of the evening
