#zeller didnt stop laughing for 15 minutes

[stranded-labyrinth]

i said it before but i need to say it outside of my tags this time. hannibal is absolutely 100% the boyfriend that tries to embarrass will with "cutesy" things. it's made infinitely worse because no one can ever see it coming. it's impossible to predict. nothing in his tone or body language or anything gives away that he's about to refer to will by some pet name that puts aphrodite herself to shame. in one statement he will simultaneously embody count dracula and a girl from 2014 pinterest. he will come up with something to say in front of others that makes you as an onlooker feel as though you've just watched 10 hours straight of pda between the two. he uses this power rarely enough in person that no one expects it, but via calls or texts? will debates shutting his phone off at work but knows that he can't because hannibal can and will just come to his work and repeat what he said over the phone in front of the whole morgue. the dead bodies are cringing.
