then they can have angry not-reconciliations in Rome! in Venice! in Florence! as Will chases them around. He tells himself he is trying to rescue Abigail! ABIGAIL DOESN'T WANT TO BE RESCUED. Will doesn't want to rescue her either. Teacup motifs galore.
I would read the shit out of this. Will chasing this dragon that he wants to catch but absolutely doesn't want to slay no matter how much he protests to the contrary. I love the idea that Abigail is the one he keeps catching up with at first (because Hannibal isn't ready to see Will yet? because Will isn't ready to let himself be seen by Hannibal?) and she's just like, "Do I look unhappy?" (Plus, so much potential for like, drive-by, up-against-a-wall passionate makeouts and blowjobs or whatever on the one or two occasions Hannibal and Will do wind up in the same place together before Will decides that, fuck it, he already rigged himself a fucking boat to cross the ocean in search of these people, he might as well just admit that he wants to be with them more than he wants to be anybody else.)
Or hell, don't kill Miriam off, Alana and Beverley et al can try to deprogram her and find out where the FUCK Hannibal and Will and Abigail went, and then she's chasing them too! Will she kill them? Will she be jealous? Will she just fuck off to Milan with Abigail? "Is this a rescue or a kidnapping?" Abigail asks. "What do you want it to be?"
I...did not know I needed this in my life until you posited it as an option but BOY HOWDY DO I. Two of the Chesapeake Ripper's only surviving victims (excepting Will Graham, who everyone can agree is less of a victim and more of a soulmate) leaning on each other to overcome their trauma with the help of a couple of badass women uniquely positioned to aid them on their journey. I want it. So bad. SO BAD.
There's a really dark version of this fic where Abigail and Miriam become serial killers in their own rights and ngl I kind of want that one too...
