Possibly they have some history, as stated by the third person to reply to you.

My theory is that since Thresh is a collector of souls is why he's taken an interest in Nautilus. Nautlius is only a soul trapped inside of an altered diving suit, and his strong will and determination would also be key factors. Maybe Thresh isn't too keen on something else other than his lantern to be a housing for a soul. You could probably say that Xerath would fall under this, too, but Xerath is probably a being different that is on a different level.

Then there's the fact that Nautilus was made awhile ago and his lore hasn't been expanded on much.
