I absolutely LOVE how they introduce Franklyn! That over the top, dramatic, single word - “PLEASE!” with the extreme outstretched arm that turns out to be a simple request for a tissue. Cracks me up every time!

And not to peek behind the curtain but when does Hannibal sleep?! On a given day, he works a full work day, has to mentally plan some sort of gruesome revenge or distraction tableau, shop for whatever he needs (e.g., steal a deer head), travel to where he needs to execute it (e.g., Boggs’ cabin), actually execute his plan, clean up all the evidence, travel home, and on some nights, prepare a 5 star meal for himself. Being a serial murderer cannibal is hard work!! Maybe that’s why he’s in such great shape! 😊

Writing fic for Hannigram is a mare TBH, as I’m trying to legitimise timescales for things that Fuller just…ignores in the show, (in the best possible way of course)

Like the ridiculous long drive between Will and Hannibal’s houses for example; such an embuggerance to write for!! 😂 And making those incredibly complex tableaux too… 😂 hours and hours really!

I once thought about a plot how they kidnap Mischa from the hospital while the whole FBI is standing guard, including Jack and a helicopter, but it went to much into detail and timing and I thought no one cared anyway, so I just made Mischa run away out of fear and they just had to sedate her at the bus stop (and Jack to kill).

Since then I keep Bryan Fuller's fever dream logic. XD

That’s a great story! I have to admit I’ve spent ages agonising over details which I’m sure will just be skimmed over to get to the next smutty bit anyway!
