Long Live Abigail Hobbs!

In honor of our best girl I’m sharing my favorite Abigail Hobbs coded songs because she’s quite literally the ghost haunting me. No one deserved her.

Killer- Phoebe Bridgers

“Sometimes I think I’m a killer. I scared you in your house, I even scared myself talking about Dahmer on your couch.”

“I am sick of the chase, but I’m hungry for blood. And there’s nothing I can do.”

Family Tree- Ethel Cain

“I’m just a child but I’m not above violence.”

“Christ forgive these bones in hiding and oh and the bones I’m about to leave.”

Sun-Bleached Flies - Ethel Cain

“God loves you but not enough to save you.”

“But I always knew that in the end no one was coming to save me so I just prayed, and I keep praying and praying. If it’s meant to be then it will be.”

Strangers- Ethel Cain

“I tried to be good, am I no good? With my memory restricted to a Polaroid in evidence.”

“Found you just to tell you I made it real far. And I never blamed you for loving me the way that you did.”

“Am I turning in your stomach? Am I making you feel sick?”

Bite the Hand- Boygenius

“Who do you think you are? Who do you think I am? Maybe I’m afraid of you?”

“I can’t love you how you want me to.”

Vienna (in Memoriam) - the army, the navy

Enough said.

Smother - Daughter

“In the darkness I will meet my creators and they will all tell me I’m a suffocator.”

“Sometimes I wish I had stayed in my mother, never to come out.”

Im Right Here - Theodore Shapiro

The humming and melody feel like what Abigail’s life with Will might have been had they been in WolfTrap instead.

House Song- Searows

“Something is rotten inside me, I have to find it and cut it out.”

Hard Times- Ethel Cain

“Tell me a story about how it ends where you’re still the good guy I make pretend cause I hate this story where happiness ends and dies with you.”

“I thought good guys got to be happy? I’m not happy. I am poison in the water and unhappy. A little girl who needs her daddy real bad.”

“I’m tired of you still tied to me.”

OKAY THATS ALL FOR NOW. Abigail is one of my favorite characters ever and I think her complexity should be observed more. She was a survivor and perceived in the light of those around her and never as she truly was and I mourn her daily. I think about how she deserved to go to school abroad and never want for anything but in the end was a playing pawn in a game between two men who were themselves too terrified and confused to make sense of each other much less her as an independent.

IF YOU WANT MORE HERES MY PLAYLIST FOR HER

I think most if not all my problems would be resolved if someone was to hold me like this

[thinking-destiel-thoughts]

sometimes I think about Hannibal and Abigail’s relationship and I think about the fact that he didn’t kill her to frame Will. it would’ve been pretty easy. he’s a capable killer and what’s more damning than a dead body? but he didn’t kill her. and he didn’t store her away somewhere like he did with Miriam.

he kept her secret, made sure she was well taken care of. when we see her for the first time (when Alana sees her), she’s clearly not locked away. she’s not restricted in movement or to a specific room. she doesn’t look dirty or injured beyond having lost an ear. she had new clothes and everything. which can only mean Hannibal went out of his way to get those things for her, and he did them discretely enough that no one noticed.

I’ve seen discourse about whether or not Hannibal cared for her. but why do all that, why go through all that trouble if he didn’t care about her? why bother?

he didn’t use her to lure Will to go with him. he didn’t kill her. he didn’t leave her to be arrested for the FBI. and when he killed her? why kill her like *that* if he didn’t see himself as her father? there were a lot of other ways he could have killed her. he could have taken her with him and killed her afterwards, could have made her into one of his masterpieces.

ultimately, I wish we saw more of Hannibal’s relationship with Abigail. but I really do think that he loved her. I think all the little glimpses that we got showed that. and I think that if he didn’t love her, we’d have seen real evidence of that. we’d have seen him brainwash her or something. it was more effort and more work to keep her alive and well in that house than it would’ve been to kill her.
