Sometimes I Feel Like All We Need To Do To Get A Hannibal Season 4 Is Just To Bother Streaming Services

maybe having Will wake up (after the Verger farm) to Hannibal playing the piano, and realizing why it was tuned..

Also Hannibal lovess the piano and i'm sure he would play something beautiful for Will

I think we as a society need to talk more about the fact that Will owned a piano. We were robbed. We could have had a piano scene.

i love to call Hannibal pathetic for this, cause he is such a calculated man, yet he risks everything for Will

He risks his life, his mind, his freedom

And at the end, he fully lets Will throw him off the cliff, cause he was truly vulnerable to him. And it's something that man would have never done before meeting Will.

With that, it's clear that Will changed Hannibal in so many ways, cause he turned him weak to his emotions, he became empathetic

Sometimes I watch the show and try to think of Hannibal’s perspective and it’s a total trip. Like. Imagine you’ve been able to control and pick and choose your emotions and reactions your whole life, due to being somehow psychopath-adjacent. And the only time you couldn’t was when you were little with your baby sister, and it’s probable that as your brain matured, the possibility of feeling and forming connections like that dried up entirely. You read the psychiatric journals, and occasionally there’s something about a man who can connect with others so deeply he can become an echo of them. And then you meet this man, and he mocks your comment about eye contact while holding yours.

An understanding passes between both of you that you have hidden depths. Instead of killing him, you bring him breakfast, and make him dinner, and serve him drinks. Instead of being able to toy with his mind without a care, you think of him and your chest clenches, and your gut swoops, and his face and voice and his rude little barbs invade your mind like glittering parasites that you can’t remove. These feelings are alien, and they’re also yours. You know, deep down, why you’re letting him live, why you stare after him, why you toe the line of risking it all for him. But you don’t want to face it. It’s terrifying, this horizon of who you are and can be that looms before you with no choice of your own.

Framing him presents a convenient opportunity for ridding yourself of this thing he brings on in you, this total lack of control, this fever-dream surrender that breaches the walls of your mind and the tics and tells of your body so effortlessly— but you miss him. You don’t miss anyone, and the one person you do is more of an imago that never was able to grow into her own real person. But the you you’ve helplessly become certainly does. You’ve become an addict. You cannot let him rot when his presence gave your monochrome world color, you can’t quit the drug you’ve always shunned. This is all a devil’s bargain, certainly, but you’ve already damned yourself, and all that’s left to do is plunge further. Oh and by the way. The infuriating man in question looks like this:

Like okay then, good luck not having the crashout of the century 😭

If she called them gay for going to Italy, man, she is going to have a field day with them running from the cops together (and living in cuba for years)

I imagine, after everything, she was like "Guys i told you they were going to run away together!! They are in love!!"

Just finished Hannibal. It was hella gay. Glad to see Freddie lounds’ ship has sailed. Little bummed she lived because she was annoying but u know what i think she girlbossed her way through like and who am i to stand in her way?

i keep seeing ppl talk about a fic like this, and i think it's a sign for how my fanfic should go

Hannigram fic idea: post fall, they don't fight each other over forgiveness, past events, Abigail or uncertainty over their feelings for each other.

They'll have to prove fate that they are going to stick together and never let go, though, even if their hands are bleeding.

Meta: The Beauty of Hannibal's Season Finales

The Hannibal finales hit different, and it's because they know exactly how to mess with your head. Each season builds to this perfectly agonizing conclusion where you're left with no real answers but a ton of emotions.

Season 1 ends with Hannibal pulling all the strings, framing Will for crimes he didn’t commit. It’s that oh no moment where you realize everything we thought we knew is flipped upside down. Will, in a sense, is now trapped in Hannibal’s web and you just can't look away​.

Then Season 2? It's pure chaos. Will’s on the edge, bleeding out, and Hannibal? He just slips away into the darkness, leaving us hanging with a literal cliffhanger. It’s not just the plot—it's the raw emotion between them that pulls you in, like two people constantly hurting each other and almost, almost enjoying it.

And then comes Season 3... honestly, do we even have words? The way it ends, with Will and Hannibal falling together off a cliff, literally and metaphorically, is both tragic and kind of beautiful. Their relationship is toxic, but it’s like they chose that end. It’s like a twisted love story where they both know they’re doomed, but together, at least they don’t have to face it alone​

So yeah, every finale is about the fall. There’s no escaping the mess they've created, and it's exactly why we love it. There's no redemption arc—just an endless, beautiful spiral into darkness.

Rewatched the pilot; time to rant about foreshadowing

Will wrote a standard monograph on Time of Death by Insect Activity, right? Well, Hannibal likes to use victims body parts to feed snails (i know they are not insects but stay with me rn), enhancing both of their tastes in the process.

Hannibal wrote a paper about the Evolutionary Origins of Social Exclusion, right? Again, Will is a very lonely and isolated person, mainly as a survival mechanism.

What i'm trying to say is: They both wrote about each other without knowing.

They are star crossed lovers, destined soulmates. Even in a world without the other they would search for things alike them.

The fact that Jack doesn't talk about the lamb. Cause he is too focused on the fight between him and Hannibal (and the Red Dragon), so he doesn't talk about Will, he doesn't care about Wills perspective or for his well being, for him Will is indeed just a tool, just fine china.

He only cares for Will when he needs to catch something, or someone. Then, he is back on the shelf, not even to be cared for.

But Hannibal reminds him of the Lamb. Cause for Hannibal, Will is extremely important. His becoming is the most important thing in Hannibal's life.

His wrath is not one to be looked over.

And at the end of the day, Will did push himself over the edge. As Jack was way too focused on the "big killers" to not notice him.

God's sacrificial lamb turned to the devil's side.

Things I think happened during season two's therapy sessions/date nights we didn't get to see:

- Fucking, tbh.

- Sleepovers. We see scenes where they are drinking wine and it's raining and dark out, maybe some nights it was too late or the rain or snow was bad so H told Will to stay. He probably left early, maybe even before H woke up, but it could've happened okay??

- H telling Will about Mischa and his parents. We know Will knows more about Mischa because Chiyoh asks him something and he answers like he knows the story, so H told him and the "I let you know me, see me" was waaay too raw so yeah, 100% he opened his heart out to Will about the whole thing. I think Will also told H about his childhood.

- Casual talks about random shit. I bet Will changed the aftershave, or not but I bet they revived that conversation. Or about food preparation, preferences, too, I just know H wanted to know Will's favorite everythings.

- Little touches. Come on, H tucking a lose curl in those fireplace, wine nights? It happened. Will delicately touching H's lower back as he passed by a smaller space.

"a more merciful god"

Hannibal, S2E11 "Ko-No-Mono"

In the “Hannibal” novel, the teacup metaphor is used to describe Hannibal’s desire to invert time and reality and bring Mischa back.

That’s the heavy analogy going on in this scene, Mischa and Abigail as shattered teacups and Will mirroring Hannibal’s grief for his sister. "I wish I could give it back”: in a way, Hannibal is trying to create a reality in which he, as a more merciful God, gives Will his beloved girl back - in which the teacup, at least for Will, is able to "gather itself up again".

Imagine how Hannibal must have felt during Mizumono: forcing Will to re-experience Abigail's death and reliving his own trauma through Will, just when he thought he could have a chance to give Will what he himself would never be able to have back.

"Post-fall Hannibal would kill Chilton" No he wouldn't.

Hannibal wants Chilton alive, surviving more than living, cause that's the lesson Chilton needed to learn.

Chilton always believed he was in charge of people, that he had power over them. When he truly didn't.

He felt like he had power over the fake Chesapeake ripper, and for that he got his organs removed while awake. He thought he had power over Will, and the fact that Hannibal was the real Chesapeake ripper, and that got him framed and shot by Miriam. Lastly, he thought he had power over the Great Red Dragon, and that got him burnt alive.

He has suffered time and time again, every time because he went against Hannibal, and believed he has power over the situation. But he never truly did.

So he would keep him alive, as a cruel reminder that he is powerless, and that he would be dead if Hannibal wanted to.
