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 believe Abigail was a representation of a the possibility of a "normal" life for Will and Hannibal, together.
Like, i agree with some people in the thought that they had more of a connection with what she represented, than who she was. The thought of them being together.
Don't get me wrong i do feel like they had a connection with her (Hannibal cause she reminds him of Misha, and Will cause she brings his paternal side). But she was nothing more than a gift, in Hannibal's eyes. Something to give to Will, if he followed him to this life, or to take away if he felt betrayed.
So her death is even more meaningful if you think that it's basically Hannibal saying "If you can't have this life with me, then you can't have this life with anyone else". She dies, and their normal life dies with, like the stag did.
Will tried to keep her alive, cause he wanted that life. But he had been too late to that realization, the realization that he picked Hannibal. And Hannibal took that as him picking Jack
Will hallucinating Abigail was more of him trying to understand why he wanted to go after a man that had done so much harm to him, and to others. He found it hard to accept the fact he wanted to be/ become a terrible man.
Also,, I don't think she would survive a family life with them, she would die in Will's or maybe in Hannibal's hands (possibly as a show how devoted they are to each other, willing to kill).
Because no person can survive their relationship if not themselves.
So yeah, in all probabilities, Abigail (Father's joy), was destined to die in her father's arms, it was just a matter of which one.
I feel such deep love and hatred towards Hannibal as a show.
I love it for all that it is; as it in tails all that i love. All the psychological aspects, the duality, the gruesomeness, the love, the art, the brutality, the beauty, the religious aspects. All that you can read between the lines of dialogue, filled with metaphors and ethical dilemas. Everything has a meaning.
I hate it for all the same reasons. It's too perfect, too endearing, too addictive; it will always make me wish for more, another season, another scene.
I think about its beauty daily. I wake up happy to have ever been able to lay my eyes upon such masterpiece, and fall asleep sad that i'll never be able to experience it for the first time again. And the fact that it, as a show, was supposed to be much longer, makes me feel hollow.
This show has made me feel such a range of emotions, only for it to strip me away from them.
It shows a love so raw that you can feel its heart beating in your hand. It is about our great desire to be understood. We all want to be understood, loved for all our darkest parts. Just like they love each other
And there won't ever be anything alike, no media could strive to be as good. The only way i have found solace in this, is through fanfics, works made with the same love shared between the characters. Only the fans can truly appreciate its glory, and with it, they can replicate it.

And that is exactly what that show wants you to feel, cause that is what Will and Hannibal feel for each other. They can't survive separation, they will always be in constant need of each other.
I am sorry for being too poetic, i will forever miss them, and they will always live in my mind. I could talk about them for hours if anyone would care to listen.
Radiohead is so them
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.
i love seeing these posts cause majority of them are from teen boys that never watched the show and think Hannibal is just an edgy character (like Homelander style)
and i would LOVE to see these dudes realizing this show is incredibly gay and that Hannibal is just pathetically inlove with Will :))
Might be a little mean but god I am so fed up with that "nothing here is vegetarian" scene ALL over Instagram people thinking it's peak.
Like okay it IS, but where's my "I let you know me, see me"?? Where's "we could disappear now"??? "Isn't that how you found me"????, "think about me"?????
(apart from the year differences) it would make sense cause both Hannibal and House studied at John's Hopkins medical school and could have known each other.
But i imagine they didn't go to a hospital more like Hannibal called House and House got interested on what happened so he went with Wilson to help them
What if I was insane and said Hannibal x House m.d crossover.
Wilson: They're serial killers House! And not to mention CANNIBALS!?
House: Waste not want not, Wilson
Meanwhile hannigram are vibing as if they're not fresh out of the sea and Will is glaring at anyone and everyone while Hannibal complains about hospital food.
"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.
WAIT-
So, i forgot this but apparently Will always takes his glasses off when he is around Hannibal. Which makes sense cause, with him, he is seeing his darkest and truest self.
And he puts them back when Hannibal surrenders to the cops. Cause he wants to be blinded to the things he once saw. Hoping that will mean he could have a normal life, like the one he tried to have with Moly
But sadly, a fulfilling life for Will Graham is not a normal life like the rest of the world. The life he truly desires is one with Hannibal in it, and he gets to a point where he can't hide that behind the glasses anymore.
Allow me to go crazy for a sec-
Will used glasses at the start of the show right? but he doesn't use it at the end, right?
What if he never needed glasses, and they were only a way for him to blur his own vision?
Cause if don't need glasses you will have blurry vision while wearing them. So maybe they could have been a way to say he was hiding his true self. Hiding his own "killer instincts" from himself, as a way to fit in.
He doesn't need them after prison, when he is killing ppl with Hannibal, or ever since. Cause he doesn't need them, he is seeing what his own brain wanted to hide from him. His true self
+When Jack wants Will to work in a case at the start of the show, he takes Will's glasses off. Forcing him to look with the eyes of a killer
