Hold my throat to remind me what I am (6305 words) by bloodstainedlamb Chapters: 3/3 Fandom: Hannibal (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Will Graham & Hannibal Lecter, Will Graham/Hannibal Lecter

Will ends up at Hannibal's house instead of his own. He's not sure how that happened.

Hannibal lets him in to offer assistance.

Does Hunter saying "Jesus" imply the existence of a slugcat Jesus Christ who died for their slugcat sins?

Jesus and twinkies confirmed canon in my AU 👍

sometimes I see debates online over random things, or even things that are supposedly within my sphere of interest (feminism, etc) and I think ‘I just do not care about this at all’. and I actually think that’s a good thing in an online space where random inconsequential things are vying for your attention at all times. loads of debates online are surface level and pointless. you need to recognise that, choose not to engage, and just continue having discussions about things that are actually consequential and have meaning for you. there’s also never a point in ‘winning’ an online argument that is about something that doesn’t matter. finding people who are actually saying stimulating things that you can sink your teeth into (in the online context) is difficult but possible... making the admittedly huge effort to stop wasting my own time

Went to the bookstore today and asked about their mythology section and this frickin guy had the gall to be like "Yeah it's over here, but these are really dense and difficult so let me show you the children's mythology section." I was so baffled I didn't say anything. Normally I would've been very offended, but I couldn't help but laugh because I was like "I've been reading those massive textbook-esque mythology books since I was a literal child as research for my novel, sir. But sure, show me the kid's section, I like reading kids' books too."

strong believer in the idea that relationships should be 50/50. and by that i mean one of you is a weird freak and one of you is a giant nerd

i loveeee the personality database website it’s so fucking funny not knowing enough about the diff personality quiz analysis stuff to Get It yourself but reading all the arguments people are having in the comments of each character abt why their analysis is the most correct actually

[burinazar]

when applied to criticizing fictional characters i think for some reason i feel the way about “shitty” that many people do about “problematic” as far as it being an unuseful term to toss off

which is OBVIOUSLY, OBVIOUSLY silly because it’s an unserious offhand and casual word, but i can’t help it, my brain still processes it as a descriptor that feels pointless and somehow frustrating to encounter

i was thinking about this reading What Happens Next and seeing how often it was tossed off as a descriptor in the comment section. for me this got tied with how a lot of readers seemed more interested in classifying the cast as all Bad (tm) rather than like ‘ah so this is a character who is xyz and does xyz. Why Have They Done This And What Can We Take From It’ which is to me more interesting than one hundred people repeating What A Shitty Guy. What A Shitty Girl. They Are All ‘Shitty’

relatedly, i think there is an overprioritization of ‘rush to classify characters as good or bad’ in the way a lot of people engage with stories, where the first and foremost thesis of what you are going to say about a character is whether they are good or bad.

someone could probably say ‘well labeling a character doesn’t mean you aren’t also going to do the other stuff and analyze them’, and that’s reasonable, and also true of the word problematic, but, like the association many have developed with problematic, it’s just an association I’ve developed, unforch.

I wish people on tumblr knew how to read 😔

i am fully aware that the new word of the month on my site would have been a much better fit for October ("sanguivorous," adjective - feeding on blood, as a bat or an insect), but alas i choose them randomly and i shall not violate that for the sake of theming.

Everytime I find myself on Instagram reels, I find myself hating society more and more.

[spinningbagel]

The uncontrollable urge to scream, yell, run around in circles and do a silly dumb dance whenever I see my favouritest (only really) online friend reblogging my dumb things and making comments about it.

(Talking about @polarized-here who else would I mention? I’m not that social.)

obviously the worst parts of the rise of legalized online sports gambling is targeting vulnerable people (especially young people) into addiction/financial trouble, increased violent threats made to athletes/their families, and the direct financial partnership with the leagues, but my least favorite part is that every expression of fan emotion is now captioned with “bet he lost his parlay” or “parlay just hit” or “you only get that feeling with gambling lol.” more conversations about sports are happening for/about gamblers who dgaf about sports and it’s pushing down the age-old seemingly unshakeable truth that people actually enjoy watching sports for the love of the fucking game

One of the great joys of reading scanlations is going to the comment section when it's just a unanimous verdict
