Cannibal puns? Well, ok.

Hannibal to Mason Verger:

Will's boat, which he uses to go find Hannibal, is called «Nola». That stands for New Orleans, Louisiana, because Will is from there.

BUT! The real joy lies in the sheer genius of whoever came up with this.

Nola is a town near which three battles were fought during...

November 20th — one of the most important days of my life.
Today marks 21 years of our relationship. 21 years that my partner and I have been together. And we still not only love each other but constantly fall in love all over again.

And of course can't do without a #Hannibal picture. 🖤

The pain was purifying. It dispersed the thick, damp fog in his mind, leaving a clarity as sharp as the first frosty air.

— I warned you, Will, — Hannibal's voice was at the very edge of hearing. — What is beautiful is not always kind.

Detailed planner — ‘cause Asperger, but impulsive — ‘cause ADHD.
Not so down to earth.
Not adorer of the rules but trying to stick to them — ‘cause to close your eyes on the rules when ASPD is a really bad idea.
Not that patient but look like that.
Cold inside, almost no empathy.
But black — yes.

Previous was in Hannibal's voice, this one — in Will's.

Dante Alighieri symbols, anti-patterns of the medieval Courtesy tradition — Troubadour culture, Tales of Chivalry etc.

Given one of my diagnoses (Antisocial Personality Disorder, boo!) and the repeated mentions of psychopaths in surgery in #Hannibal, there's an incredible amount of irony in this fact.

Once, my psychiatrist, who knows much more about me than most, said thoughtfully:

It seems strange, but no #Hannibal writings today.

And blessed #Samhain to those who celebrate! 🖤🕯️

From my head. (And ofc made the image.)


— You let him in too deep, Will. You allowed him to build an altar inside your mind.
— I didn't allow it. He was just there.
— He is defiling a sacred space. Your imagination is a temple. Not everyone deserves the right to pray in it.

Today is World Mental Health Day.

I have several diagnoses, one of which is Antisocial Personality Disorder (in my case, what was once called psychopathy). My partner also has several diagnoses, one of them being Autism Spectrum Disorder.

For someone who's a bit out of the loop: these days, is #Inktober strictly for drawings? It was never really meant for writing, was it? I'm just thinking about what to do, since I'm writing #Hannibal and #hannigram poetry...

For the last three days, I've been thinking a lot about something specific, and in a very practical way.

And I've also found this unexpected sense of calm. Not that I was climbing the walls screaming before, but still.

It's probably something silly that can be fixed with medication or surgery. ⬇️
