Joey Batey is LITERALLY Jaskier
Hannibal def uses he/they pronouns since he probably has at least one to two people in his digestive system at any given point
I think a really good relationship dynamic is when one partner is an entirely absurd person and the other partner's perpetual thought process is, "I adore you. Why are you like this? I'm going to kiss you at such length and with such fervor that you'll get disoriented and stop being like this for five minutes and I can rest, for fuck's sake."
The colors aren’t working right now but I like the first concept :)

Sad little pixels
Just remembered that Will Graham was canonically a professor and-
What was that even LIKE???
Picture the scene: youre a bright-eyed prospective FBI agent who needs to take this class for a credit and you roll up to see a man who looks like he slept in a dumpster teaching your class.
Ok fine you can deal with that.
Next thing you learn is that he has the social skills of a ground-nesting chipmunk and the class has realized he tolerates you all only because you sit fifty feet away from him.
Fine. Cool. Sure.
Maybe the class starts trying to win him over. Maybe they leave him an apple as a joke and he goes on a fifteen minute rant about how many apples will kill you. The class realizes they can get him to talk about certain things:
Government Officials (Derogatory), Dogs, Knives, Dogs, Guns, Dogs, Kraft Mac and Cheese, Silly String (Derogatory)…
They get him a murder mystery book for his birthday and he spends the next class period talking about why it was wrong and who REALLY did it.
The class does some research, apparently he’s wired up in a weirder way than the class thought. That’s fine, you all like him in a “teacher who hates everyone kind of way”
Then he starts rambling about murders as if he WAS THERE AND DID IT, zones out, regularly gets interrupted by random people and then vanishes off the face of the earth only to reappear as a “murder husband” a few months later.
Good for him, you all knew only a bisexual could be that much of a flaming wreak.
The class is Professor Grahams biggest supporters, they cheer when he gets out of prison and keep up with the news as best they can.
Because goddamnit he’s their WEIRDO and good fucking batshit crazy teachers are SO hard to find
they dont make em (tv show relationship squares) like this anymore
the best part of the social worker in the horse situation isn't even that there was a social worker in a horse or that dr hannibal b cannibal was disgusted by it or even the really gay ass hannigram scene immediately after. it's that hannibal deadass told the social worker to get back in the horse because suffocating inside a horse is preferable to any situation in which will graham has a gun
"if i was orpheus i would simply not turn around" yes you would. if you were orpheus and you loved eurydice, you would. to love someone is to turn around. to love someone is to look at them. whichever version of the myth — he hears her stumble, he can't hear her at all, he thinks he's been tricked — he turns around because he loves her. that's why it's a tragedy. because he loves her enough to save her. because he loves her so much he can't save her. because he will always, always turn around. "if i was orpheus i would simply —" you wouldn't be orpheus. you wouldn't be brave enough to walk into the underworld and save the person you love. be serious
You're just a mammal. Let yourself act like it. Your brain needs enrichment. Your body needs rest. You feel hunger and grow hair. You need to pack bond with other sentient things so you don't become unsocialized and neurotic. You are biologically inclined to seek dopamine and become sick when chronically stressed. Outrage about hedonism is made up to place moral value on taking pleasure in sensory experiences. I am telling you that if you don't let yourself be a fucking mammal, as you were made, you will suffer and go insane. No grindset no diets no trying to be above your drive for connection. Pursue what makes you feel good and practice radical rejection of the constructs meant to turn you into a machine. You're a mammal.
do you guys think bugs think the world is pretty too
happy valentine's day, friends! 💜
a week or so ago i ran a bunch of polls on what kind of shadowgast picture i should draw for v-day, and y'all have helped me build something really fun! especially with the three winners of the color poll (purple, teal, and orange!). i don't know how much of a 'regular shadowgast' this picture has turned out to be (regular shadowgast are probably studying ancient tomes in a dusty library as we speak), but let's say that i am giving you the plot bunny gift of figuring out the setting of this scene 😏
tip jar!
By the way, to those saying that Will is in fact not genuine in these scenes
Then why on earth would he also smile like an idiot when talking to Chiyoh about Hannibal
And then you also have this smitten idiotic smile here:
Oh and in here
And my favorite:

Geralt is convinced that he only helps Jaskier out and keeps him out of trouble because the consequences are much worse.
He wants to fuck a lady or lord in wedlock? Tried that (more than) once and Geralt had to take down a pack of seven drowners to convince the spouse to keep Jaskier alive.
He makes sure Jaskier puts dry clothes on after a fall in a lake? That’s because a sick Jaskier is so so bad and somehow even with a sore throat he talks more.
But eventually the annoyance fades and slowly, so slowly, time softens the doting he does without much thought. Geralt keeps Jaskier warm even before he complains. Geralt steps in front of Jaskier so he won’t scream.
Someone points it out, eventually. Ciri, probably, but when she asks him why he treats Jaskier like a lover, Geralt almost throws himself off the mountain’s side. It’s ridiculous and he has just gotten used to caring for this helpess and annoying creature that has latched onto him and refuses to shake off.
Geralt doesn’t stop taking care of him.
And if he can’t find the contempt that was there before? Well that’s not for anyone else to know.
Just a reminder that listening to Hozier and not caring about politics is not something you can do. You can't listen to his music and not care about the world. You can't just ignore the political messages in his music. A big part of Hozier as an artist, and as a person, is bringing awareness to different issues and standing up for human rights. You can make jokes about him being otherworldly and a tree man because yes, a lot of his romance and morbid songs surround the physical earth it self but you cannot take away the years he's spent discussing human rights issues. He didn't spend 10 fucking years creating incredible albums riddled with songs like Take Me To Church, Nina Cried Power, Foreigner's God, Cherry Wine, and Eat Your Young just to have the political context, a.k.a the heart and soul of those songs, to he ignored. His "aesthetic" is not fairies and forests and skinny white girls in pretty dresses, his "aesthetic" is confronting the government and its corruption to shine light on issues that have been ignored for decades. You can't listen to Hozier and claim to love his music while not paying attention to the world around you.
YES THE FACT THAT he knows the stigma around cannibalism and then feeds other people other people just to reassure himself that it is something people shouldn’t be as scared of as they are. The objection people have to human meat is morality but in Hannibal’s mind they are less than people because of their Rudeness or transgressions so there’s no moral dilema. Not that there had to be because yes he did eat his sister and was probably really destroyed by it, so he ate Rude people to justify how he felt about it. AND THEN HE NEEDS TO DO IT TO OTHERS !
But then when Will comes around here is a person whom he wants to let in and so the feeding becomes love. He wants Will to know him and know what he’s done so he gifts Will the good sides of the cannibalism that he’s discovered. There is the murder aspect of it which I think is just a fun side to it, the hunting and viewing yourself as a superior predator and whatnot. But he wants Will to love and know him so he gives Will the one thing that he has. (And nothing bad happens and they drive off into the sunset together.)
I often think about how Hannibal tricked people into cannibalism. it’s really easy to right this off as Hannibal just being sick and twisted, a psychopath, but its clearly something much deeper than that to Hannibal. Not only because he’s lonely and wants someone to understand him, enjoy this with him, but to console himself. He was forced to eat his own sister whom he loved and he enjoyed it. Every time he watches someone else enjoy it he feels righteous, he feels normal.
He does it to prove to himself he’s not a monster. Anyone else would feel the same in his situation. So he forces people over, and over, and over, to the same conclusion.
To comfort the sad little boy inside filled with doubt.
happy belated valentine's day to y'all in general and shadowgast enjoyers in particular. may you always have a life-long friend to platonically snuggle with
just to hide outside your door 🐍🍎
