I actually feel like this season has really been about the opposite.
No one forced Will to go to Hannibal. He makes some lame excuse that he'd be forced to do so out of desperation anyways, but that's definitely not the case. If anything, all Hannibal has done is complicate things further like he always does.
Twice now Will has had the opportunity to move on and let Hannibal go, and he just
hasn't taken it at all.
As Bedelia says, "Did you just miss him that much?". The answer, unequivocally, seems to be yes.
Given what Will did to [BLACKOUT]Chilton[/BLACKOUT] as well as Chiyo, you can see that he's starting to emulate Hannibal in fairly uncomfortable ways. It's been mentioned in these two instances that he may have been curious as to what would happen (as opposed to some other wholesome purpose), and Will doesn't really put up much of a defense when accused of this. Who does that sound like?
The difficult truth is simply that Will loves Hannibal back. He gave the appearance of moving on with Molly after three years, but look at how quickly that all falls apart and how fast Will falls right back into Hannibal's lap. He didn't have to go back to him at all, but he chose to of his own accord.
As Bryan Fuller said, they're unfortunately destined to be together.
Also, nice avy, lol.
