Hugh Dancy and Mads Mikkelsen about the relationship between Hannibal and Will (x)
Hugh Dancy is as clueless as Will Graham
look at freakin Lawrence Fishburne, though! :D
OP where’s the Hannibal but with Venom quotes
Y’all asked, and here you go. Hannibal with Venom quotes:
someone once messaged me to let me know that Hannibal and Will’s age gap was problematic and I was just sitting there like…. Really…. that’s your first and most pressing issue with Hannigram, Really
they’re cannibals, susan
“I’ve never n-known myself, as I’ve n-known myself when I’m with him.”
{{Will’s stutter}}
#hannibal#this show is such a good lesson in negative character development#and this line demonstrates that concept excellently#isolated and without context such a line has positive connotation#to know oneself is usually a good thing#and to know oneself better when with another person usually signifies an intimate and positive relationship#but that connotation evaporates when this line is given context#Will does know himself better when he’s with Hannibal but what he comes to know about himself is not positive#and their relationship is certainly intimate—which makes the romantic wording here fitting—but it’s also not positive#nor healthy. and so Will stutters on the ‘know’#after trying so hard for so long not to be what Hannibal knows he can be the poor man can only smile and admit that he’s failing#and that he doesn’t hate that he’s failing#and….this is perhaps the first time Will has conceded this aloud#holly writes meta#(tho he certainly hates himself for not hating that he’s failing…..but that’s another matter i suppose)#at any rate! tl;dr#character development doesn’t have to be positive; it just has to keep your characters and your story moving#also i can’t see shit……please someone turn on a light (via @hollycrowned X)
