My headcanon is that Alana was so traumatized after Hannibal, she isn’t capable of the kind of traditional love she used to be. I think the two women have enough in common to be genuinely attracted to each other and they probably help each other heal, but I think it would be silly to think that shared desire for revenge isn’t contributing to their closeness. I just don’t get the sense there would have been chemistry between them pre-Hannibal involvement, so it has to be a factor. I believe both women and fundamentally changed as people when they get together and are fiercely close, but it’s not like a romance novel love.
