Prompt: hole | WC: 404 | Rated: T | For @steddiemicrofic Tags: zombie au, first meeting | CW: implied main character death/undeath

“Excuse me,” A voice calls out behind him. “You’re sitting on my grave.”

Eddie turns to see another zombie like him. Another reformed zombie like him. Pallid skin, stark veins, the deep black of his pupil warped and bleeding though the now white irises of his eyes. A ring of scarring and bruises around his neck, never fading, never healing. Sharp cheekbones and a square jaw. He’s the most beautiful man Eddie’s ever seen, living or dead. If his heart was still beating, Eddie would feel it skip. A breath catch in his now defunct lungs.

“This you?” He replies, pointing down at the gravestone he’s currently sitting on, book now held loosely in his hand. The other man nods, so Eddie stands up, and manoeuvres so he can see, carefully avoiding the large hole in the ground, the broken shards of coffin, from where this man had clawed his way up.

Steven Harrington 1966-1986 Beloved son

“Sorry,” Eddie says, his own voice awkward on his tongue. Smiling awkwardly at the man. Steven. “I thought,  well if you weren’t using it…”

And Steven smiles, snorts a laugh — a huff of stagnant air. “I mean I’m not anymore, but come on, can’t you desecrate someone else’s grave? Your own maybe?”

“Using your headstone as a chair is hardly desecrating,” Eddie jokes, but he folds over the page in the book he was reading, and tucks it away in his leather jacket. “But if you insist, Steven.”

“It’s Steve,” he replies. “By the way.”

“Eddie,” he nods, flexing out the stiffness of his fingers and gesturing to himself. “Mine says Edward, which is not what I would have chosen.”

“I mean,” Steve replies, tilting his head and smiling. “We hardly had a choice.”

“True,” Eddie nods, and gestures in the general direction of the graveyard entrance. “But I’ll get out of your hair.”

“You don’t have to,” Steve replies quickly, Eddie whipping his head back to meet the other man’s gaze. “I was just surprised. Not many people come out here these days.”

“And that’s exactly why I come here,” Eddie says, smiling softly. “No angry living out here. Makes for peaceful reading.”

“Yeah,” Steve says, and it would have been an exhale, if he had breath. “This feels like the only place left that’s ours.”

“Would you want to read with me?” Eddie asks quickly, biting his lip.

Steve smiles softly. “I’d love that.”

[graciereadshannigram]

hey fam, welcome to the March roundup of the best hannigram fics i've read this past month! i read close to 60 fics total, and these were the cream of the crop.

as a reminder: the ingredients for a five star rating typically (but not always!!) include some combination of a.) believable characterizations of both Hannibal and Will, b.) compelling plot and/or character arcs, and c.) high quality smut.

that being said, my judgment of the aforementioned ingredients is powered almost exclusively by vibes and as such, is incredibly subjective.

and if you have any recs of your own for me, PLEASE SHARE.

(Inaugural roundup can be found here)

anyway, in no particular order, let's go!

~

Title: Bones of My Bones (& Flesh of My Flesh) by everyday_forever Word Count: 15,759 Summary: When Will & Hannibal reunite in Italy at last, Will doesn't fear becoming Hannibal. He knows he already is Hannibal. However, Will feels as if he's a derivative of Hannibal, made in Hannibal's image, from Hannibal's own raw material. He doesn't feel like he's Hannibal's natural equal. Will thinks the only way he can forgive Hannibal is by claiming a piece of Hannibal in return, and choosing to make it a part of himself. He has to eat him. And Hannibal is all to happy to let him.

As far as I'm concerned, this IS canon. Truly some of the best canon-compliant characterizations of them that I've read. This is absolutely what would have happened if Will hadn't tried to kill Hannibal after leaving the Uffizi Gallery. It was perfect. And so them. And obviously, mutual cannibalism. *chefs kiss*

Title: Do you feel the hunger, does it howl inside? by merrythoughts and ReallyMissCoffee Word Count: 261,929 Summary: It's been weeks since the Fall. Since Will had leaned against him, the wild scent of blood thick and cloying on the air, and had taken them from the top of the cliffs. And for every second of every day since, Hannibal has been calmly dealing with the fallout of his decision that night: Life over death. Will had intended them to die, had allowed himself a moment of weakness, of desperation. Perhaps the last act of an exhausted soul. Yet Hannibal had denied him.

I am being dead serious when I say that this fic changed my brain chemistry and managed to do something that several years of therapy had not. I wanted this to go on forever (there IS a sequel!) and did my very best to savor it instead of plowing through the entire thing in a single day. Check the author notes if you're unfamiliar with these two writers–the format took me a couple chapters to get used to, but clearly it wasn't a big deal for me.

Title: Sensational by bigfootghostdick Word Count: 39,607 Summary: Franklyn’s obsession with Hannibal Lecter truly knows no bounds. His obsession only grows worse after being fired as Dr.Lecter’s patient. Feeling slighted by Hannibal's rejection, Franklyn follows him home one evening only to stumble upon something that he never expected to see. Who’s that dark-haired man locking lips with Hannibal right outside his front door? Overcome with jealousy, Franklyn decides to seek revenge on his tenth psychiatrist. How? By selling the photos he took of them to Freddie Lounds.

Listen. I love a good jealous!Franklyn, especially when Hanni and Will firmly put him in his place. Sue me.

Title: The Stress-Sex Connection by shotgun_sinner Word Count: 48,090 Summary: When Will gets out of the BSHCI, he resumes therapy with Hannibal Lecter. His stress levels are through the roof, and Hannibal makes an offer that Will doesn't turn down. Hannibal assumes he's going to take Will to bed and make love to a fragile man, shy and delicate. Will enjoys taking Hannibal to bed, and proving him wrong. OR the story where Hannibal is shocked to find out that Will is a profiler in the streets, but a demon in the sheets.

I was sold on the last line of the summary, "Will is a profiler in the streets, but a demon in the sheets" because it actually got a good cackle out of me, and then who would have guessed! Essentially porn with feelings, but I loved.

Title: hold me, kiss me, rip out my tongue by multifandom_fanfic_writer Word Count: 18,005 Summary: Will notices things. He notices a lot of things, can’t turn it off. Some of these things are about Doctor Hannibal Lecter. He watches Hannibal watching him eat. He watches the touch on his elbow lingering, possessive. He watches Hannibal's eyes darken when Will pulls his hair and fucks his throat hard.

Okay, so I'm realizing that a lot of my five star fics this month were pretty smutty, but I make no apologies. That being said, I did find the characterizations of both Will and Hannibal to be very compelling, and it had the added bonus of Will getting to rub it in Alana's face that Hannibal chose him not her.

Title: Ligare by InfiniteCrisis Word Count: 8,280 Summary: Will's never gone down on a man before and is feeling nervous about it. His solution: tie Hannibal up first. Hannibal has no complaints.

Initially shied away from this one because Will essentially drugs Hannibal to knock him out and fuck him for the first time, but I PROMISE Hannibal knew exactly what Will was doing and allowed it. However, if that isn't your thing, this won't be for you.

THAT BEING SAID, my honest reaction after this was, "fuck fuck fuck, dom!Will might be my new favorite." Bonus points for it being the first in a series, and the rest is equally good!

Title: Oboedire, Implorare, Vovere by InfiniteCrisis Word Count: 18,715 Summary: At the end of Ligare, Hannibal said Will should "test" his willingness to submit to him. Will takes him up on that, and the results are more than either of them expected.

As I said, the rest of the series was SO GOOD. This was basically off the charts hot.

Title: To the Devil His Due (His Due is You) by everyday_forever Word Count: 26,3319 Summary: Will Graham is in the Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, courtesy of one Hannibal Lecter. And Will wants payback. He threatens Hannibal with a reckoning. And then Will has a terrible and wonderful idea- he opts to get back at Hannibal and make him jealous by pursuing a sexual relationship with Dr. Frederick Chilton. Feeling emboldened, Chilton sends the audio recordings of him and Will together to Hannibal to boast of the new development in Will's 'therapy.' Hannibal knows at once Will is the mastermind behind it all. Hannibal is most displeased with his manipulative albeit cunning boy. Chaos ensues. Will continues to manipulate both Chilton and Hannibal in order to make Hannibal jealous. Will has entered into a dance with the Devil after poking Hannibal's beast and Hannibal is eager to teach Will a lesson and remind him who he belongs to...

HEAR ME OUT. Prior to this fic, I had never considered Will/Chilton. Ever. Let alone reading a fic where most of the on paper smut is ChilWill. And yet here we are. Hannibal was just so present through it all, given that Will was only screwing Chilton to get at Hannibal (although, I liked that there was some genuine affection between Chilton and Will, it wasn't completely callous), and it just all combined to be an excellent fic. Sue me.

Title: Trope: Fake Date (Hannigram AU) by TigerPrawn Word Count: 4,207 Summary: Will's possible promotion is relying on his superiors thinking better of him. One way to do that is to take his omega to the upcoming cocktail party. Only problem is, he doesn't have one, having to rely on one sent by an agency. He wasn't quite expecting Doctor Hannibal Lecter.

Fluffy first meeting AU, nothing more nothing less. I just love seeing them happy!! (sometimes, lmao)

Say what you will about the Disney Percy Jackson series, but if there is one thing that I really like about it, it is the fleshing out of monsters and darker characters so far. Everyone's personality is so much greyer, but staying true to their core that makes it such an interesting adaptation. Yes I am sad that some scenes are changes, different or not included, but I can also appreciate the new ones that we see. You can really get into Percy's head in a way that sometimes I forget as I reread the books. He is well established in my head as older and that much more experienced, a character that i grew up and aged with, but I see now in the Disney series, just how really young he is. How much he is still learning, still growing as himself and how much his interactions are shaping him as a person. I love book!Percy, but TV!Percy is bringing something a bit different to the table that is not bad, just different.

#percy jackson #pjo tv show #pjo series #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo #But someone protect these children please #They're just babies #God I have never realised that Percy was just a baby #Feral he may be but just a Boi #Fleshing out monsters' characters like never seen before #We revel in the grey

Rip good television. You have been missed 😔

#no fr why are shows only 8 episode now??? #storytelling is lacking bc there’s not enough time #to tell the story most shows are trying to tell in 8 episodes #go back to 20 episodes when characters and plot lines weren’t rushed and were fleshed out #television #tv series #tv shows #skys post

[readdontsleep1]

LIN MANUEL MIRANDA PLAYED THAT ROLE PERFECTLY I WILL ACCEPT NO CRITICISM

#percy jackson #my jaw was on the floor #they are really fleshing out the humanity of the gods and i approve #also what did percy see? #they better show us soon #pjo tv show #pjo #percy jackson and the olympians #hermes #lin manuel miranda

Just rewatched in the flesh and finished watching young royals and i have to say Wilhelm and Kieren are so beautifully similar that if you love one, you will no doubt love the other

#in the flesh #kieren walker #prince wilhelm #wilhem young royals #young royals #they will both make you cry #tv shows #i welcome disagreement but i dont accept it #lgbtq shows #but so much more at the same time

Need to find something to fill the dhmis shaped hole in my soul

#chats #ohhh i should be used to the long long radio silence but ohhhhh the tv series made me love the show more than i ever did #if you care. the moment those 3 guys got more fleshed out is when the cogs started turning #i still like the teachers.... a little bit. theyre very very fun to make and interpret whatever . but not as much as i like those 3.

I’m pretty sure this fandom is extremely dead, but Grimm really was a great urban fantasy show. I do have my gripes about characterization , but the concept and plot are really enjoyable.

#I’m having a rewatch with my grandma and it’s so good #monroe x nick would’ve been cute ngl #grimm tv show #I have so many gripes about how nick was fleshed out as a character (or lack thereof)

[theropoda]

actually maybe i DO understand this fucking phenomenon cause i just remembered how often tumblr loves to take a piece of media, be it a tv show or movie or book, and make headcanons and AUs and fanfiction SO far removed from it that it becomes its own thing. the threads tying them to their original work is thin, it's just names and character design-- everything else can be different. and i see this happen in both a (Derogatory) way, when people headcanon and interpret a character in a way that is just NOT them and make someone else entirely, someone that is more fan content than original work, and an (Affectionate) way where people make such intricate AU's and redesigns and fanfiction, it's so detached from the original work, again it's more fan content than canon, but the fan contents fucking good and better than the original. it's genuine creativity

so of course everyone's nuts over goncharov. because all we have is a setting, a synopsis, faces and names. everything else is for us to play with.

#ive been a fool all this time. amazed as if i havent seen the exact same thing happen with various tv shows and movies and anime #the amount of times ive seen people take minor characters in jojo and make them fully fleshed out beings #with back stories and everything iAM LOOKING AT YOU LA SQUADRA #AND THE EGYPT NINE #me seeing the same with minor yakuza characters too like fuck IVE done this with baba LOL #people love being given blank slates and going fucking gaga #WAIT GHOST TOO. ghost as well #we don't know fuck shit about these damn popes so everybody goes fucking wild #t #goncharov

Bravern really is a show that should have 24 episodes instead of 12.

#Kassandra talks like someone's listening #I like what we got and I'm excited for the finale #BUT! BUT! I need. More of these characters #I would love to have more time to really flesh everyone out. Show more of a gradual change in Isami's feelings towards Bravern #get more of the side characters #Get more of Bravern being absolutely head over heels In Love with Isami #I just want More. But i'm not surprised we won't get any #Kassandra watches tv #I'm not liveblogging Bravern but i'll put it in the liveblogging tag

Archive 81 tv show made Melody Pendras straight we cannot trust podcasts in the hands of mainstream media !!!!!!!

#archive 81 #I have mixed feelings about it and as soon as they introduced Gal Pal Annabelle to replace Actual Girlfriend Alexa it should have been a #red flag #conceptually I really liked what they did to flesh out the first season #but they took it in a completely different direction by the end and at that point it’s not even the same thing anymore 🙄 #like you can’t even pick up anything from the original’s season 2 because they reconstructed the narrative so much #idk man its not like they’re going to make any more of it anyways but I still felt the need to come on here and bitch #honestly main stream adaptations of podcasts scare me like I revel in exposure for things I like but ultimately so much gets lost in #translation #like archive 81 podcast is weird and nonsensical at times and Tape Recorder Man’s adventures in the Upside Down just don’t translate to a #general audience ? so they gotta bring in reasons for it to make sense like satanism and witches and demons #when that was sooooooo not the point of the original #like seeing how much they had to adjust to appeal to an outside audience makes me almost glad the wtnv tv show didn’t get green lit #can you imagine ???? how the fuck would they get five headed dragon Hiram McDaniel on my actual television ???? #standing next to a Cecil Palmer with a canon appearance no less #like adaptations are cool and they CAN work sometimes but if you’re going to have to break and bend the world in order to make it to the #point where it’s a new thing entirely #ESPECIALLY since we live in a world where audio drama is not respected as a creative medium #at that point I’m just like leave it alone it’s fine on it’s own #anyways archive 81 is an interesting experiment into what live action podcast adaptations COULD look like but you can pry lesbian Melody #Pendras from my cold dead hands and that makes the adaptation automatically inferior imo #I guess she could be bi but when you remove Canon Girlfriend and instead make her kiss a man ? not likely #I am just talking to hear myself talk now goodbye #max rambles in the tags

Some new drawings of an old character.

to begin this I'm not trying to be a hater and I'm especially not trying to be a hater of the queer media that we have been getting this summer/will be getting this fall because it is really important BUT it'd be great if the queer media we always talk about would more often be about sapphics

#good omens #rwrb #heartstopper #ofmd #see once again i'm not hating! i love all of those or i think they are kinda cool if i havent seen them #but often they are about beautiful thin (mostly) young (mostly) white men #rich men #or heavily masculine-presenting people anyways #and i know it is greatly marketable to many younger fan(girl)s who feel #more comfortable in their sexualities if they can disassociate from the characters by at least their gender #and it is hard being a teenage girl and comfortable about your body and sexuality and mind and yourself whatsoever which i understand but #but sapphics deserve to be featured in media! they deserve to be seen and loved! #and not just as funny unimportant side characters with no distinctive personalities but as compelling and layered and fleshed out main chara #cters #and also i am focusing on like women/sapphics in this post but #we must be more diverse in the sense of gender race body types neurodivergency disability social status etc etc #and yall know thered be a huge fucking audience to love and support such books/movies/tv shows #lgbtq+ #queer media

[purposefully-lost]

Iuci as a character is basically entirely based on this one single shot from Foundation

#i know ive said it before but his physicality in the role of Cleon is NUTS #this scene is one of my favorites but god. especially when you see him as several different cleons throughout #the course of the show #and he and the other 2-3 actors in the role do SUCH a stellar job of portraying the same men growing up and getting old and then portraying #their replacements as their own fleshed out characters #its a shame Foundation is a weird scifi show locked away on Apple TV and thus not as many people will see it as would otherwise #and Lee Pace and Laura Birn and everyone else are giving crazy insane good performances over there fhdhZHS
