Here Me Out, Imagine,

Watching Hannibal for the first time Ep 8-11

Episode 8. I need MatPat to figure out if you could turn a person into a cello. THAT IS THE FILM THEORY I WANT! Anyway, Franklin comes back in this episode. Another fun fact, I work in dentistry, and I did not know Catgut was real animal innards. My instructors left that little tidbit out. I love that Hannibal is offered friendship by Franklin, his little fanboy patient. Lecter is so annoyed by it, he just could not care less. Then Tobias, who is also a deadly psychopath, Hannibal seems just as bothered. It's great. Tobias swinging around that wire tool thing, looked a little silly. It was giving weeb kid busting out their special attack. I did appreciate men in suits beating the Hell out of each other. Also Will and Alana kiss, it's whatever, I feel no chemistry between them.

Episode 9

Abigail finally comes back, she's haunted by the man she killed and is going to write a book about the murders with Freddie. We learn that Freddie is a smug vegetarian. I just know this woman fat-shames people. She eats half a cutie orange and just gushes about how full she is. I'll fight this woman in a parking lot. Also, Abigail did help father capture girls for him to kill. I won't lie I lost a lot of sympathy for Abigail. However, It makes sense that Hannibal would be so interested in her. I think he sees Abigail and Will as kindred spirits, in his own way. Yet, he still views them as things to be played with.

Human totem poll. It was such a good design. The skulls are the corners.

Episode 10

Skin just slipping off the body. It got me. It's the little things that get me. Just slid off her like a rubber glove.

Hannibal has an interesting way of treating his friends. I think lying to Will about his encephalitis, is an attempt on his part to keep him close. He wants will, but I don't think Hannibal is capable of seeing other humans as, well people. I think he views them more like animals, something he can control.

Every time Will has an episode he runs to Hannibal. So it is working, if Will was well, he might spend less time with him. Hannibal's own psychiatrist mentions that he needs someone who deserves his friendship. I think this may be a way for him to test Will.

Bisected head. I cannot praise the SFX makeup enough.

Episode 10

This might be my favorite episode of the season. Being awake during your own dissection, grizzly. The tongues pulled through the slit necks. Simple, and very effective. I like seeing Freddie have that smug grin wiped off her face. I was bothered that Alana was put into protective custody, but Chilton was not. Like, he was the guy who messed with the serial killer, of course, he was going to get got.

They seemed so surprised, y'all are FBI agents pull it together.

Hugh Darcy does a great job, acting like someone on the brink. Another fun fact, they often use baby oil to make actors look sweaty. Hugh was probably swimming in the stuff.

Three more episodes. That I will post about later, and give my feelings on the first season as a whole.

Hannibal would 100% go feral when Will wears his stuff and smells like him and you can’t tell me otherwise

I love this because I think that after the first time they sleep together Will borrows clean clothes from Hannibal and he realizes he doesn’t have many shirts or looser pants that aren’t pjs, so he buys “himself” more clothes conveniently in Will’s style and size, somehow his washing machine is always malfunctioning so Will has to wear his clothes to work where Beverly absolutely teases him about why he owns $5,000 flannel shirts from Bottega Veneta.

i just had a cursed thought. you know how the boys and Michael don’t have eyebrows when they vamp out but Max does. could you imagine if that was like the head vampires thing? like he dies and David inherits the eyebrows like a family heirloom 💀

The Big Comfy Couch actually went there.

If I don't see a hannibal s4 announcement soon I'm going to cry

(This is not a threat its emotional manipulation)

Anyways I'm talking about Anya again.

She's allowed to be terrible. She's also actually a good nurse. Someone not being able to complete that doesn't mean they don't know how to do their job. It could have been many reasons and based on what we know, mental health very likely played a part of it. She kept Curly alive for months and the condition he was in, that would not have been possible if she didn't know her shit.

If she had been alive, it's likely she would have been able to save Daisuke too. But I feel like it's also important to point out that most of the guys on the ship didn't seem to believe in her, one way or the other. And how that takes a toll when you are in a medical position especially, it's not a great mix. Anya had self esteem issues, for very valid reasons might I add, and yet no one once again advocated for her. As much as I like some of the others, they are responsible for her death. Every single one of them. Even Daisuke. He has less responsibility compared to the other three, and he still counts.

All of them to some degree didn't do what they could have. Swansea seemed to come around at least a little, I still believe he was angry for her. But what he said to her first, was an issue. He did belittle her some, he does that with everyone sure. And he still did it.

Curly is self explanatory, he didn't do what he should have the second he knew. He didn't do his job as a captain and as someone who knew her personally either.

Jimmy. I mean. A fork is in the kitchen here.

Daisuke didn't say anything. It was his lack of words that makes some of it his responsibility. I understand he is the role of the younger guy learning what to do from the older ones, so he just goes along with it. And he still could have tried something. Even talked to her and said he believed her and would try to help. He didn't.

Anya is a victim, all of them are, and she takes the cake. She's allowed to snap. She's allowed to be terrible. She's allowed to lash out. It doesn't make things right, but what are you gonna do when nothing is right? Her worst moment happened, it happened and no one addressed it. It happened and she has to live with it. It happened and where she would be standing, no one cared. And I fully believe Jimmy did it more than once.

Anya shouldn't be glorified or put on a pedestal of victimhood. She's one of the rawest forms of a victim of SA and potentially abusive relationship I've seen so far. She does deserve a fucking vaction, and one can dream. The take away I'd also like to see from this game is why that couldn't happen. Because understanding that can help you understand people who do experience that, who have had that happen. She couldn't get a happy ending in game because no one was willing to help her get there. This was the only end.

here’s Seymour now sera

She’s such Silly

For a funny content, I was wondering what kind of cat Jason would be. Since I'm a future crazy lady, I ended up with a raggedy maincoon
