#and meanwhile hannibal is absolutely sticking up for will. he is advocating for him! and mentally constructing recipes for his flesh

i'm rewatching hannibal and its such a rich portrait of the infantilisation (yet also exploitation) of autistic adults. like will graham really is out here fighting for autonomy and peer respect and mutual empathy and just a goddamn ounce of understanding and he's doing it all while his brain is cooking in its own juices and his new best friend/therapist is trying to figure out if he wants to fuck him, kill him, eat him, or all three but if so which order.

#jack when he likes what will is saying: 'will graham is a twisted genius he's incredible and no one can do what he does' #jack when he does not like what will is saying 'hannibal how crazy is will on a scale of 1 to 10? no i wanna keep him on the case #'i just want to discuss with a 3rd party how nuts he is so later i can say i wasn't ignoring it' #and meanwhile hannibal is absolutely sticking up for will. he is advocating for him! and mentally constructing recipes for his flesh #:/ #that's why it's so hard being an autistic adult #people at work don't respect you or your opinion even though they somehow also are always looking to you for information? #and everyone wants your pussy so bad they might have to kill you about it #it's awful #adam talks too much
