Hannibal
Hannibal x Pushing Daisies
Feast for your eyes and stomach
Buzzzzzzzzzzzz
There’s a frantic buzzing that fills the room, one that starts from a hum before the noise persists in both frequency and volume. What comes next is darkness, sweetness, then death. When the Behavioural Science Unit of the FBI finds a human being inhabited by bees, body emptied for a hive to take its place, they go to their specialist, an unorthodox urban honey pioneer by the name of Chuck Charles. (After all, the pies her pie maker offers them is often incentive enough.) |
The Encounter of Ned the Pie Maker and Dr. Hannibal Lecter
A conversation started at the table when Ned and Chuck are invited to a private dinner party along with Aunt Vivian: “So, what do you do, Ned?” And Dr. Lecter says his name like it is something he wants to savour on the flat of his tongue. The man is sitting at the head of the table, fork in one hand and a knife that is gleaming in the other. “I–” Ned starts and has to chew his mouthful (so good) before he can continue. Swallowing, he licks his lips in that way he does and glances over at Chuck, sitting next to him, smiling at him like she always does. He turns back to the doctor with his meticulous home and lavish dishes, and replies, with some degrees of humility. “I’m a pie maker.” |
Hannibal x Pushing Daisies x Wonderfalls
He bakes pies and wakes the dead.
When his sister asks that he bakes her therapist a pie, Ned only does it because his once dead alive again girlfriend insists.
He speaks with the living and eats the dead.
When Dr. Hannibal Lecter takes a bite of the pie one of his patients brings him,
he can’t help but ask the girl who can hear inanimate objects speak whom he should be swapping recipes with.
Or the one where Dr. Lecter serves the pie maker a meal of his own.
