Ibn Umar reported:
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said,
“The most beloved people to Allah are those who are most beneficial to people.
The most beloved deed to Allah is to make a Muslim happy, or remove one of his troubles, or forgive his debt, or feed his hunger. That I walk with a brother regarding a need is more beloved to me than that I seclude myself in this mosque in Medina for a month.
Whoever swallows his anger, then Allah will conceal his faults. Whoever suppresses his rage, even though he could fulfill his anger if he wished, then Allah will secure his heart on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever walks with his brother regarding a need until he secures it for him, then Allah Almighty will make his footing firm across the bridge on the day when the footings are shaken.”

No idea is simple when you have to plant it in someone else’s mind. INCEPTION (2010) dir. Christopher Nolan
“I have no plans to call on you, Clarice, the world being more interesting with you in it. […] Orion is above the horizon now, and near it Jupiter, brighter than it will ever be … But i expect you can see it too. Some of our stars are the same.”
Hannibal and Clarice from TSOTL movie.
…this is the first time that I draw them thinking at the actors, but I like the result.

“Mama!” His high pitched child voice squeaks out, running to her with open arms as if he forgot she was there with him. She smiles wider as he kneels down to his level, opening her arms wide. He giggles and crashes full force into her, knowing that she will always be there to catch him, to break his fall. He laughs as she hums “woah!” At his enthusiasm to ses her. She lifts him up into her arms, wrapping them around his tiny body to make sure he’s secure. Nothing will hurt him.
“Look mama!” He hands her the flower, and she gasps and takes it from his delicate hands.
“Woah, thank you, sweetie.” He beams at the praise.
“Do you know what flower this is?” He shakes his head in return.
“This is a buttercup, if you hold it under your chin and your chin is yellow it means you like butter” he gasps in return and lets his mother hold it under his chin.
“Oh, looks like someone likes butter” she teases and lightly tickles his tummy. He giggles in response before chuckling out, “now you try mama!”
She hums and holds it under her chin with a smile, the buttercup glowing a yellow hue under her chin, “is my chin yellow”
He gasps and nods, like this is some sort of witchcraft he’s never seen before.
“Let’s go see if your dad likes butter” Mark cheers as she lets him down, holding the buttercup as his tiny legs run to his dad.

“Do you remember that, mom? After that I have always picked you a buttercup or two on Mother’s Day until I was able to buy my own flowers. Always of a yellow variety though, it has to be in theme,” he chuckles weakly before talking again, “Happy Mother’s Day, Mom”
Mark pressed a soft kiss to her temple, as tears dropped onto her pale skin. He pulls away, as he stares at her lifeless body. He can’t let go though, they haven’t had enough time together. They never got to go on a mother-son vacation, she will never see him have children, she will never get to even reach the age of 60. In his head, he hopes by some miracle she will gasp for air again, but he’s tried all he could. CPR didn’t even work but crushed her ribs.
He carried her over to the couch, hugging her close and he pulled a blanket over her. He doesn’t want her to get cold, she always hated the cold. Out during sunny days was what she loved. The yellow lilies, daffodils and buttercups were wilted on the floor, the water spilling, the vase shattered.
He runs a hand over her cheek, feeling her body slowly get cooler. He clenches his teeth, thinking of all the times she said I love you, and he wished he said them back. Or the times he would rush out of the house to play at a friend’s house and she looked disappointed that he didn’t stay to eat her cooking. Or when he would play with his dad more than her. What if she hates him for that? He’s sure hating himself right now for that.
He hums a tune to an old song they used to play in the car as he braids her hair. He knows she’s dead, even if he doesn’t want to accept it, but she deserves to look beautiful even after she lives.

“Mama?”
Debbie turns, she hadn’t heard Mark use that name in a while. He looks in shock, on the verge of tears, and he wraps her in an almost crushing hug- literally.
“Mark?! What’s gotten into you? We had dinner together yesterday. Are you happy to see me?” She chuckles it off.
“Mom, oh god- I want you to know I love you, you mean the world to me. You raised me better than this” He rambles as his voice quivers, his eyes watering and ready to overflow.
“Mark? Seriously, what’s wrong?”
“I got you these”
He hands her a bouquet of lilies, daffodils and buttercups, with specks of dirt on them like he found them and pulled them from the dirt himself.
“Happy Mother’s Day, Mama…”
Mathematical fun fact of the day 3:
You can tile a regular 30-gon using a pentagon and rhombus.
I think Hannibal and Clarice would end up as a normal couple with secret that you shouldn't know about it.
I think I’m one of those weirdos that actually think Clarice and Hannibal do not become a murder couple at the end of Hannibal the novel. If Hannibal murders, I don’ think Clarice is included. They are both perfectly willing to kill, but will not engage in murdering the rude.
I also don’t think they’re engaging in cannibalism. In fact I’m sure of it.
I read the book. They have servants. They allow people into their home. Someone else cooks for them. The only place servant are forbidden to enter is the top floor of the house before noon because Starling and Lecter are lazy asses.
Note, I do not expect this from my RP partners. If I wanted everything exactly as canon, I would re-read the book.

I like my headcanon that Boba would read some romantic poetry to Fennec and she would laugh at his face, but then she'd realize: "Oh shit, you're being serious. You actually love me? Are you sure? 🤨"
And Boba would be like: "You didn't like it? 🥺"
And Fennec, who does not like to show her feelings, would be like: "It's kinda... neat."
