thinking about how for all of his life Will has been the odd one, wrongly placed … he tried to be a father figure for abigail, he was wally’s stepdad, the husband to widowed molly, a quick fuck for margot to get an heritage, a special agent because he was too unstable to actually be certified, a professional curiosity to alana … and then he met hannibal and he fit just right. he was the missing piece hannibal had wishing for his entire life. he wasn’t there to fill places because someone had to anymore. he was actually needed and that by life or death

ok… imagine a moon knight and daredevil crossover where dd has no issues fighting the invisible jackals because the dude cant see shit anyway. moon knight is like “you can see them??” and matt, not wanting to reveal his blindness but having no idea theyre invisible, is just like “yeah i can see of course i can see”
moon knight then assumes dd is an avatar of an egyptian god. bc what else? so, naturally, moon knight asks “what god do you serve?”
“jesus”
“what??”
“im catholic?”
“what???”

In which Will and Hannibal have a brief conversation about divine law and expectations.
“Are you familiar with the story of Actaeon, Will?”
A digression. Another digression. He’s used to these by now.
“I can tell you want to tell me whether I have or not.”
A tilt of the head, a not-quite smile. Hannibal is, in most things, the elegance of restraint.
“I do not mean to bore you with my recounting.”
“Tell me.”
“Actaeon is a great hunter. He stumbles upon the goddess Diana bathing in the woods.”
“And I assume a swift overreaction followed.”
“The punishment of gods can never be said to be an over, or indeed under, reaction. Divine law is always a matter of poetic justice.”
“What does she do to him?”
“His punishment for this transgression is to be transformed into a stag. Only to be torn apart by his own dogs, who no longer recognize him for who he was.”
He laughs. He can’t help it. This is on the nose, even for Hannibal.
Hannibal doesn’t even blink, watching him.
“Is that supposed to be some kind of warning?”
“Do you see a warning in it?”
“A hunter torn apart by his own dogs? Yeah, it’s hard not to.”
“You place yourself in the role of the transgressor, not the transgressed.” He notes mildly “Do you ever find yourself worrying that one day your fellow investigators might mistake you for quarry?”
Does he? Of course he does. Every day. Every time he steps onto another crime scene. Hannibal knows that.
“As long as there aren’t any skinny-dipping goddesses around, I think I should be fine.”
“Do you believe that Actaeon knew what he would find?” Hannibal asks, “Perhaps he did not expect to see her any more than you might.”
“It doesn’t matter, does it? He was a hunter. Whatever he expected, the end result was always going to be the same, whether he saw a goddess or not.”
“What result?” Hannibal tilts his head again, a clock-work mimic of interest.
“Spilled blood and baying hounds.”
Suga had another special guest at his last show in LA last night. Halsey came to sing Interlude with him.
Loving the lighting!
Love this friendship!
In fact, as Jimin said on the Jimmy Fallon Show, Halsey has a special place in all of BTS members' hearts.

actually the main reason i think gi-hun is a good person despite his flaws is because of this:
after all that happened in the first games and he was able to go home with the money to pay for his mothers treatment, he found his mother dead. any other person would be broken and would have likely ended their life at some point or become completely destroyed.
but what does he do? he picks himself up and once he realizes the games are still going on, he dedicates his life to making sure no one else has to go through this.
yet people want to complain about him not getting on that plane. yes his daughter deserves to have her father in her life, but her life isn’t threatened and she has a stable support system. he was willing to actively risk his life to save hundreds of others from death and trauma.
i dont care what yall say. gi hun has a good heart and doesn’t deserve some of the hate he gets.
