Oh My God I Dont Know How Big The Overlap Is Between BBC Merlin And NBC Hannibal Fans But Let Me Tell

oh my god i dont know how big the overlap is between BBC Merlin and NBC Hannibal fans but let me tell you the two love stories???

On one hand you have the cannibalism as a metephor for love. The type of love that captures your whole being and makes you want to be so close together the lines blur to the point where you dont know where you end and the other begins (an actual reference to the show im not lying). the symbolysm of wanting and wanting and wanting so bad that you would rather kill and consume the object of your desire than go another day, another moment without them.

AND ON THE OTHER HAND you have the "i would wait for you until the end of time" and the two people's whose fates are so closely intertwined and so impossibly tangled seperation would surely mean the end of both of them so they stay. they stay and they grow and they love and they fufill their destiny not because of the principle of the thing, but because they are too deeply in love with each other to see otherwise. the world knows the two of them as a pair because they are two sides of the same coin (direct reference from the show) so close and impossibly separated and yet they continue and they live and they stay

they're both so similar and so different it's crazy

me, pointing frantically to my whiteboard littered with notes and connected with string: no you dont understand the appeal of hannigram is the fact that, romantic or not, they are both unexplicably both disgusted and attracted to the other. they love and they loathe each other. they make the other whole but they are incomplete and-

my friends: *squirting me with the garden hose*

it's the way gwaine and merlin and merlin and lancelot are friends that gives me hope in this world they deserved better!!!

Hey hey hey do you think about how in that final Hannibal episode in the stabby stabby scene they probably couldn't see. How the blood was probably pouring into their eyes and in their hair and clothes and everything was blurry and someone's standing in front of you. The love of your life or your worst enemy or someone who you can only hope to survive. And yet, you would know intrinsically who that person is. What they've done. They would know the same. And in your final act on this earth, you hold them.

That's fucking wild

uh oh spaghetti-o!!! that's a felon!!!
