Rewatched the pilot; time to rant about foreshadowing
Will wrote a standard monograph on Time of Death by Insect Activity, right? Well, Hannibal likes to use victims body parts to feed snails (i know they are not insects but stay with me rn), enhancing both of their tastes in the process.
Hannibal wrote a paper about the Evolutionary Origins of Social Exclusion, right? Again, Will is a very lonely and isolated person, mainly as a survival mechanism.
What i'm trying to say is: They both wrote about each other without knowing.
They are star crossed lovers, destined soulmates. Even in a world without the other they would search for things alike them.
