|| Matthew Brown my beloved.

It felt like murder. If you feel so badly about it, I don't think you ever intended to do it.

Killin’ someone to protect another doesn’t count as murder in my book. Some people have it comin’. I… well— yeah. Every single day. I think about it all the time.

I don't intend to kill unless I have to. I shot a man ten times to save his daughter. I. . . Am more content to move pieces into place and see what happens. Did you feel badly about it?

I’ve been on serious crimes for a long time and I’ve never had to kill anyone. I’ve been in some situations where I’ve let things happen, but I’ve never pulled the trigger myself. When I was a boy I pushed my little brother down. Killed him. It wasn’t my intention or well, I think it wasn’t.

I never wanted to. I was removed from homicide because I couldn't kill anyone. Until I did. I have time for a long story. Who did you kill?

𝘽𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙚 𝙍𝙤𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙨𝙤𝙣@detectivesrgnt.bsky.social · last yr.

I haven’t intentionally. It’s uh… a long story. So someone stopped you? That makes sense. I can’t see a good reason to not do it unless someone interfered.

Never? I have. I'd have shot him, too, if I hadn't been stopped.

So what I’m hearin’ is that he had it fuckin’ comin’! I ain’t never killed anyone. (Intentionally.) But some people deserve it. You woulda been alright in my book if you pulled the trigger.

He framed his mentally ill client for murder and the client sewed him into the horse. Um. He deserved it. And I felt. . . Empathy for the client due to similar circumstances, so I almost shot the social worker.

I… yeah. I’m not sure what to say to that, but it makes mine seem silly. How did he even get in the horse?

Sitting outside in the rain with his dogs.

As an FBI agent, I get it. My experience with horses is a social worker climbing out of one.

This job is hell. I attract the stupidest shit.

..... I'm so curious about your life.

Just arrested someone for horse theft today. Horse theft. In Scotland.

He woke up far before his alarm, and he's exhausted.

|| Nothing makes me click out of Hannibal fanfiction faster than Will calling Hannibal "Hanni". I just can't.

|| In my Hannibal rewatch and the worst thing about the ambulance eye fuck scene is that the episode also heavily features Franklin and I cringe.

|| I have such little impulse control that I watched Saw again and I want to write Lawrence Gordon.

Cut me open and make yourself at home in my chest.

There's not enough coffee.

maybe in another life, loyalty wasn't one -- sided and love wasn't convenience .

|| I, adult human, 29yo, with a full-time corporate job, bought myself juice boxes because I am allowed and there is no one to stop me.

|| In recent news, @crimsonstaeg.bsky.social I cannot STAND this man.

|| Friendly reminder Will PAYS for therapy with Bedelia just to be petty that he won a man she doesn't even want.

God forbid I start walking around with the top buttons of my shirt open.

Are you from Victorian England?

"Well, there will be meat." Will smiles back, though it's faint. Just the smallest upturn at the corners of his mouth. "You'll enjoy it."

“Oh fuck no. I gotta have meat.” Bruce grinned a genuine smile for once. “I promise I can stomach just about anything.”

"He's a talented cook," Will responds with a shrug. "I hope neither of you is a vegetarian."

𝘽𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙚 𝙍𝙤𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙨𝙤𝙣@detectivesrgnt.bsky.social · last yr.

Bruce thought that sounded more than a little suspicious, but who was he to nitpick about free food. “I’m sure he has better meal ideas than me, so don’t worry.”

We've had sex and kissing my chest is the thing he has trouble admitting?

Either Ryder and Hannibal will become great friends, or they'll hate each other. Will is more curious about what strings may be pulled. "I'll see if Hannibal has any . . . Meal ideas."

𝘽𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙚 𝙍𝙤𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙨𝙤𝙣@detectivesrgnt.bsky.social · last yr.

“I don’t think anything bad will happen.” Or maybe Bruce was so used to Ryder treating him special. No human was perfect, but Bruce was pretty positive that Ryder was. To him anyway.

Tsch.

"Yeah, I don't see any problem at all getting Hannibal and Ryder in a room together." He's very curious what might happen, in fact.

“Ah!” And suddenly, Bruce understood. Everything had managed to fall into place right at once. “I see… I think this would be good for them. Good for us, even. Especially now that I think about it.”
