Okay so. A bit of tl;dr.
When I first wrote this comic, it was about a series of firsts in their relationship: first time they kiss, first time they had sex, first time Hannibal bottoms, and first time Will bottoms (yeah it's more complex than that but that was my basic structure to start with). Essentially, the "wayfinding" is the growth of their relationship. The story evolved around these landmarks, and the plan was always to hit those points then bring it around to somewhere canon and see how it fit. It's wish fulfillment, and was meant to be satisfying, even with this ending.
Honestly this wasn't meant to be a cliffhanger or teaser or anything. I wrote it to explore a path that could lead to Clarice and Silence of the Lambs in a way that wouldn't be competitive with Hannigram, because I L O V E Clarice but don't ship her and Hannibal in a romantic way at all, personally. A Wayfinding sequel would just be me lifting stuff from Silence of the Lambs but with murder husbands instead of just Hannibal, and Clarice as some kind of hyper-competent surrogate Abigail, and not really that much smut and shmoop, which is why I haven't really considered doing it. I think it would be too challenging and by the time I finished they could be making s4 which would undoubtedly be better than anything I've conceived. Some people have asked me for a sequel to this, but, I strongly feel that some things are better when they're done, when they're complete, rather than endlessly ongoing. I feel good about leaving it just like this.
But yeah! This was a really fun ride, I've really enjoyed making it and I'm glad some people enjoyed coming on this weird trip with me heh~ I definitely still have a lot of Hannigram feelings that I'll be working out in other comics, so please hang around if that's your thing. I know some of you are skeptical about the upcoming omegaverse comic, but consider hanging around til the 30th to read the first few pages before you cancel your pledge? If you try it out and it's still definitely not your thing then I won't hold it against ya :)
Thanks guys!

As one of your newer followers I really feel like this was really really well done. The Black Lamb is what brought me to you Patreon but I also feel like Wayfinding was a super satisfying semi realistic ending to how the series could of played out.

I loved reading this comic! And I love the way you write their conversations, It's more honest but still has that cryptic flair we love. Also short haired Will gave me some great Reanimator Jeffery Combes vibes. Their escalation in both their relationship and crimes was beautiful. And that last page just has my mind reeling about all their possible conversations with Clarice. I bet Will would keep Hanni semi-polite lol. And they're sharing a cell! I wonder if Will trades his profiling abilities for comforts like that.

I loved this whole comic it was soo good. Also love how it leads into Clarice, their second chance at a kid lol
It was a pretty amazing read. I love their "wedding rings".
Hopps
Wonderful comic! I love the idea with the wedding rings. :)
Sabrina Ripperger
Well, at least they get cells next to each other. Why am I so torn up about them getting caught? Bu the wedding ring scars they each will have now is just so perfect. I also have never been a fan of Clarice and Hannibal coupling, only because Hannibal I think respected her as a woman trying to compete in a man's world, and devaluing her as only a romantic partner is not his style.

This was STUNNING!! One of the teens I work with was pushing me to watch Hannibal all last year, but it wasn't until I started reading Wayfinding that I dove in. I'm so sad I didn't get into the show sooner, but I'm really looking forward to seeing what else you have up your sleeve. Thanks for your amazing art!
I just reread the whole thing to coincide with the end (I was traveling when you actually posted it) and OMG. So good. :D :D :D :D :D Also glad Clarice got to show up as I also love her but don't think she'd want a relationship with anyone, especially Hannibal. :D

I haven't actually seen either of the movies that Spacedogs is based on so I don't really get it yet lol~ My impression without really looking either up is that one or both of them die in those movies (?) so I haven't felt like getting bummed out lately haha...
I understand your reasoning :) I can't wait to read more of your hannigram :) Or Harry/Draco (lol I'm a nostalgic). Have you considered Spacedogs?
Love this comic. Love your work. Ultimately plan on sticking around into the future and for the upcoming stories.
Aaah, so good! I've thoroughly enjoyed this from beginning to end, and I think you left it at a perfect place. Even though I'd love to see where you'd take it after this, I understand and agree with your reasoning for not doing so. Tbh I tend to fall of the wagon if a fanfic- or comic gets too long, especially if the pairing has been well established, as it is in this case. I'm really stoked seeing what you're making next! As always, thanks for your lovely work :D
Reapersun
Hehehe I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Reapersun
Haha thankss~
Reapersun
Thank you ~
Reapersun
I have a little vision of how it could go, but I'm not sure if I should share it haha, since it feels like a tease since I'll never make it (unless they announce Hannibal the series is well and truly dead). Thanks!

Usually I love it when people make fic based on my art, although I have to admit I feel a little strange about it when it's a comic, because I've spent a lot more time thinking about the story than I do with single artworks, and so when the fic doesn't really follow what I was thinking I get kinda hung up over it, not in a negative way but in a less than enthusiastic way. That said, I'd still give full permission, but I wanted to warn you about that in case you do write it and my reaction ends up being weird haha; it'd just be because our visions didn't line up. But yeah, I don't want this to discourage you, and if you wanna write it you should feel free! I hope my explanation makes sense... OH and also keep in mind that the full comic isn't publicly available yet so if you post it publicly there might be a lot of people reading it who don't have the full context, and I wouldn't give permission for a summary or anything of the comic to be posted until after I've posted the whole comic on Tumblr. I'm not sure how you planned to do it or what timeframe you're considering but I just figured I'd mention it :)
Reapersun
Next is gonna be some ANGSTY FEELS tbh ;w; But leads to a good place in the long run, I hOpE
Reapersun
Thank you for enjoying it~
Reapersun
XDD (I've thought about it too....)
Reapersun
Thank you :)) I'm glad you're happy with it!
Reapersun
I don't usually give my porno stuff to the celebs lol (I honestly might have done something a little different for RAW if I'd known Bryan was possibly going to see it) even when I know they're pretty supportive of it. So I wouldn't have planned to give him one. That said, I'm glad I didn't have any on me when I did see him, because I probably would have kneejerked and given it just to have an excuse to talk to him haha.... It would have been... a mistake..... orz....
Reapersun
Thank you! I'm working on it :))

This was such an incredible comic, I loved reading it. The art is just gorgeous and the characters so lovingly portrayed. I can't wait until I can get my hands on a physical copy. Thanks so much for this! I absolutely can't wait for the omega verse comic!!!
Alyssa Vanderwulp
This was so worth the waiting and the $14 a month; Perfect. π Now I'll be chomping at the bit waiting for the books to be orderable. Also pumped to see what kinky stuff you have in store for Hannigram in the omegaverse. And, now that I've taken in this perfect ending, It's my strong opinion that you should offer one to Bryan while you're both at SDCC if you have copies on you/you stumble upon him again!!! πππ―π
YunaCrowned
Aaaaaaaah this is freaking awesome!!!!! I wasn't ready for it to end, but I love the pat you were leading the story, I love Clarice and it would have being fantastic to see her with our murder husbands. I think It was an amazing way to give it a closure! Ahshdjdj I love your Hannigram and I will love to see whatever you are willing to give us, amazing, amazing! Thank you!
Aaaahhh now I'm imagining them "touching" through the shared wall of their cell.
Kayla
Thank you so much for sharing your lovely Hannigram vision with us
Megan Noone
AAAAH, a satisfying ending to a wonderful comic. Honestly I think I'd have more fun imagining what could happen next. :3 Also: I'm so glad you love Clarice like that, because I unabashedly LOVE Clarice Starling. I can't wait for the omegaverse! GIVE ME ALL THE HANNIGRAM FEELS YOU GOT!!!!
Amazing series! I love the cliffhanger. It would be awesome to know how they escape together, but we'll survive ;) Excellent comic! I'm really looking forward to the omega verse comic!!
Aw God. I love you. This is amazing.
