How to Describe the Deep Pit of Despair that Hannibal Thrives in #1
The romantic pairing of Will Graham and Matthew Brown, a unremorseful murderer who is almost fanatically obsessed with Will, is still considered one of the healthier and lighter pairings that the show has produced.
Have committed two or more murders
Lack remorse
Appropriate religious iconography in their murders
Are good at covering up forensic evidence
Work in a medical profession related to psychology
Have a false persona they present to others
Are obsessed with Will Graham
Believe that Will understands them more than anyone else, and is perhaps the only person who can
See Will becoming a murderer as a way of releasing him Both white, able bodied, cis men
The actor who plays them used to be a professional ballet dancer
Clearly Will has a type…
White Tea and Lightning: A Comparison of Hannibal Lecter and Matthew Brown
Mr. Graham. You really shouldn’t be here right now. Don’t you have a game of polo to attend?
Matthew, look at my eyes, I want you to release her and set the knife on the floor.
It’s a pity isn’t it? I want you so much, Mr. Graham, from morning to dusk, when I work, when I sleep, in my veins, in my dreams. But it’s never going to happen between us, is it? You lied.
I never lied to you.
Pupil dilation. You’re lying again, Mr. Graham. She’s perfectly adequate, but nothing extraordinary. A bit meaty around the jaw actually. I promise I can change that for you though, just say the word.
Matthew, this was never a Shakespearean play. You know as I do that neither one of us fits those silly roles.
Of course, you’re right. Romeo was stupid. What is one Tybalt? He should have burned them all, and protected his lady love. I won’t be making the same mistake, Will. Let me show you all the shades of true devotion.
Let’s face it. Matthew was amazing. He was obviously fangirling and flirting with Will. He was so adorable and he acted like Will was his best friend or hubby. I mean, clearly Matthew wants to get closer to Will and Will asking a favor of him it’s his best shot at it. I also like the fact that this time the killer was not obsessed with Hannibal, but was rather more fond of Will. Nice twist there.
I was so glad Will asked him to kill Hannibal (well, I obviously knew he couldn’t kill him) because while I love Hannibal, he had it coming. It’s not fair if Will gets all the traumatizing fun.
Anyhow, you can all call me crazy, but Will/Matthew is a legitimate ship.
Hannibal will take his revenge though. Out of jealousy, of course. Something like:
Hannibal: So you become murder hubby with someone else Will?
Will: …
Hannibal: FINE! LETS SEE YOU WHEN I PLAY WITH ALANA BEFORE DINNER!!!! Let’s see if you’ll cheat on me again!
Will: What have I gotten myself into?
Also, let’s not forget Hannibal and Matthew were fighting over Will before Will even met Matthew. Matthew kills the bailiff while Hannibal kills the judge.
ANYWAY; I’m sorry Hannibal, but Matthew is too adorable and sassy not to be loved by me too. You’ll have to learn to share.
Credits to my sweetheart Lara for some of the thoughts.
What if the actors actually already have tumblr accounts, but instead of being 'themselves', they're here under the masks of fannibals, just as any of us? Anyone here would possibly be Jonathan or any of the other actors. Nowhere is safe anymore.
