Abigail Hobbs - Blog Posts
The one scene in Hannibal where Will had his small hands around Abigail’s throat trying keep her blood in and Hannibal took his place; his hand fitting perfectly around her neck… yeah.
That awakened something ig
Watching Hannibal, Will, and Abigail's relationship progress is like watching a deer about to get hit by a car
(Abigail is the deer, Hannibal is the driver, and Will has the moral dilemma of calling for help, grabbing the steering wheel, or ignoring what just happened)
pfffft love how your ask box says "going my way?" made me chuckle haha
anyway in response to your pokémon post
Hannibal - mewtwo
Abigail - Eevee
Will - Pikachu
(dont ask why it just makes sense in my head lol)
Thank you!! Hannibal would have a mewtwo wouldn't he? And Abigail with an eevee 🥲 she's just too precious
What pokemon would the Hannibal characters have?
I'm using this whenever someone asks me to tell them about myself.
The way nobody ever saw Abigail Hobbs for who she was. Not Will Graham. Not Freddie Lounds. Not Hannibal Lecter. Not Jack Crawford. Maybe Bloom? Maybe? Not even the fans of the show really ever saw her for who she was. The concept of the murder family is fundamentally against what Abigail ever wanted. She was never their daughter. She was never a murderer. She did feel remorse for the crimes she helped commit. She was never what they wanted her to be, but it didn't matter. We know she wouldn't want the murder family because nobody who actively feels intense remorse for even being an accomplice WOULD.
She was never their murder daughter. She was never a protege. She was never a murderer. Her measured and shy demeanor makes her a bit like a mold of clay. She is whatever everyone wants her to be. To Jack, she's an accomplice who must be held accountable. To Freddie, she's a story to sensationalise. To Will, she is the daughter he never had. To Hannibal, she is Mischa. To the audience, she is the daughter of their favorite queer pairing and they engage in domestic activities.
Think about this. When she is their daughter, are you writing them that way for her own benefit? Are you writing her to be that for her sake? Or are you writing it for their sake? Are you writing her to be their daughter to domesticate the pairing between Hannibal and Will? Or are you writing her to be their daughter because it's what she would want?
If she was truly the murderer that Hannibal leads her to believe she is, then why would she wake up from nightmares over her father's victims condemning her?
That is the tragedy of Abigail Hobbs. She never was truly allowed to simply exist. Her existence was always influenced by all these external forces and interpretations. People projecting what they wanted her to be onto her and the fans are culpable as well. She was never allowed to actually heal. She escaped the clutches of one insane father and lept into the arms of two.
This is my design.
i'm literally the priest's favorite sacrificial lamb because i am so docile and sweet and i hold very still when they put the rope around my neck and i trot along so happily while they lead me to the altar and they do not even have to tie me down because i lie so very still and only bleat once or twice in my lovely lamb voice and when the knife comes down it cuts through me like butter and i offer no resistance and i bleed so prettily all over my new white wool and my guts all unspool like the most beautiful shining yarn and my eyes are animal and dumb and hold no accusation and every time i die i come right back as another little lamb because the priest loves me so so much and he always chooses me for the sacrifice every time and he always places one hand on my small and twitching nose to calm me while he lifts the knife and he doesn't do it for the other lambs only me because i'm his favorite
abigail hobbs is my daughter I love her so much
