Summary
"She seemed to be under the impression that you were in love with me.”
And there.
He’s done it.
Hannibal for his part appears unperturbed. He blinks, inclines his head. An infinitesimal half smile is his only detectable reaction, his dark eyes remaining perfectly, irritatingly neutral. It creates the overall impression of near bored politeness.
At his core Will knows this is a painstakingly constructed mask.
It doesn't mean being greeted with it in the face of such weighted words has no effect.
"Did she?"

Summary
What if Hannibal never consulted for the FBI and they met on their way to a forensic psychology conference instead?
_____
“Are you headed to LA for business or pleasure,” he asked.
Will was relieved to see that the rude man’s shoulders were pointed toward the aisle seat. After perhaps a second too long, the man on the aisle said “neither” in a neutral, clipped way. And Will detected an accent somewhere in the word – the r was much softer than an American might say it. “I am not going to LA at all, merely transferring planes.”
“Are you headed to Hawaii for that CSI conference then?”
“CSI…” the man replied, confused but with no real curiosity behind the prompt.
“Well the stewardess said something about a forensics conference.”
“Ah yes,” came the velvety voice, “forensic psychology. Yes, I am attending that conference.”
“So what is that then, forensic psychology?”
“It’s the study of humans – why they do what they do.” The man paused for a moment, then added, somewhat pointedly: “Specifically, why they kill.”

Summary
Gentle. That was the word the monster had used. Will would hold onto that word as if it were the only thing in the universe. Because it was gentle. Each skim of lips and trace of tongue, each brush of fingers and dip of hips were nothing but gently maddening, sending Will so far into himself that he thought he would never be found again, only to be pulled back by books and wine and a weightless timelessness, free of the rules of physics and mathematics.
Will suffers from a case of amnesia after the fall and attempts to kill Hannibal whenever he relapses.

Summary
Will doesn't leave Hannibal's dinner party for his date with the Chesapeake Ripper. As a result, Hannibal alerts Will of his encephalitis that night and uses Will's recovery to explore his curiosity about friendship-- and what makes Will Graham fascinating. Hannibal's growing affinity for Will compels him to use a somewhat softer approach to influencing the man than he had originally planned, and Will isn't impervious to becoming the object of someone's affection after a lifetime of self-imposed social isolation.
TL;DR: S1 goes in a much fluffier direction as of "Sorbet." Will is Will. Hannibal is Hannibal, just a smidge closer to the man we know and love by the end of S3.
