ack. got hit with the inexplicable need to draw the worst guy ever

[kenj1sl0v3r]

i’ve done my fair share of scrolling through the hannibal tag on this app, but the one thing that i want to talk to literally anybody about when it comes to the hannibal book is this:

the perspective it’s written in.

thomas harris books are very obvious written from the 3rd person. BUT! hannibal specifically, at least i think so because it’s been a hot minute since i’ve read red dragon and sotl, have these very important moments to me where the perspective switches from like.. the “all knowing eye” or whatever the fuck, to some sort of unknown narrator. am i using the right terms? probably not, so stick with me here.

instead of the perspective reading like this, (this is just a random example) chap 59: “the dna lab was new, smelled new, and the personnel were younger then starling. it was something she’d have to get used to, she thought with a twinge- she’d be a year older very soon.”

SOME OF IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS (and here is a excerpt from one of my favorite chapters ;)) “here beside you is the palazzo of the capponi, a family distinguished for a thousand years, who tore up a french kings ultimatum in his face and produced a pope”….”in that pane of crazed old glass is a bullet hole from the 1940s. go closer. rest your head against the cold iron as the policeman did and listen. faintly you can hear a clavier.”….”the alarms cannot see us. the wet policeman lurking in the door way cannot see us. come…”….”a long stone staircase, the stair rail cold beneath our sliding hand”… LIKE OH MY GOD??????

AND LASTLY LITERALLY ONE OF THE BEST THINGS IVE EVER READ THAT JUST HAPPENS TO BE THE LAST SENTENCES OF HANNIBAL:

“follow this handsome couple from the opera? all right, but very carefully…”….”we’ll withdraw now, while they are dancing on the terrace—the wise barney has already left town and we must follow his example. for either of them to discover us would be fatal. we can only learn so much and live.” LIKE EXCUUUSEEE MEEEE???????

i don’t even know how to explain how this kind of writing makes me feel. i could read books in only this kind of format for the rest of my life and i would die a happy human.

i need to know if there’s a specific name for this style of writing because oH MY GOD i love it SO GODDAMN MUCH !!!

i didn’t realize that i would be able to fall in love with a writing style but alas- here we are 😭

literally if anyone feels the same way or even feels different about this way of writing, please share your thoughts!!!!

HELLO AND WELCOME TO

TUMBLR'S MOST INSUFFERABLE

Where our contestants ruthlessly compete for the title of Tumblr's Most Insufferable Character. These characters were nominated by an open call, both through replies and asks (with the exception of Magic Man, Metatron, The Fucking Boomerang, and Lord Farquaad, who were nominated by the contest creator). Originally, the call for nominations was both for insufferable (affectionate/derogatory) but not all the nomination entries were very specific, so this is just a contest of Insufferable±™️. Each fandom only got one nominee.

Who is the most despicable(cute) and most despicable(derogatory) in Hannibal?

Will is my favourite and his dogs are cute. Mason Verger is despicable (derogatory) but I do enjoy his character
