There is definitely tension between the two leads, but given all that Hannibal puts Will through, it really can never be a functional relationship, in my opinion. So I suppose it depends on how manipulative and twisted you like relationships to be?

[(Anonymous)]

For me, it's not about healthy, functional relationships or future husbands! at all. It's literally just about the passion/tension/obsession/emotion, because that's what's interesting to me and gets my imagination going. I like the exciting, sexual elements, so they can be (almost) as twisted and unhealthy as possible as long as something is there.

There is definitely tension and obsession and emotion. But as someone says above, Hannibal really fucks Will over in several ways throughout the season. I see it more as Hannibal is really, really obsessed with Will and there is a lot of tension from that, but I just can't see any kind of relationship developing, given all that Hannibal does. So, it might be interesting to you?

You get that, and some intense face touching to boot. :)

Hannibal is a psychopath, though. Even if he does love Will, as word of god suggests (see quotes above), it's in a way that hardly deserves the word 'love'. Obsession, co-dependence, emotional manipulation etc in abundance, basically.

I love it.

You'll probably love it, then! The characters and their relationship are way more complicated than a lot of fanon makes them out to be, and what happens in the finale isn't actually Hannibal's end goal. The therapy setting gives their interactions this amazing intimacy and intensity from very early on, and Hannibal genuinely does love Will even as he causes him great harm in the process of trying to unleash what he sees as Will's potential, which can be hard to reconcile or to watch but is definitely there. Some things he does are pretty much marriage proposals in serial killer world, haha. There's a scene between them around the middle of the season that the AV Club said was way more romantic than the onscreen kiss with a canon romantic interest earlier in the episode. I shipped the canon at first but had to agree with that assessment later. The showrunner is gay himself and extremely friendly to slashers and fandom, so while he's promising us full sex or anything like that, he's not bothered by or dismissive of the idea at all. He retweets slashy fanart and replied "ikr" when he was tweeting about filming a sexy kiss between sexy characters who weren't Will and Hannibal and someone asked why not.

He ISN'T promising us full sex. Pardon my Freudian slip there hahahaha
