COME AT ME

Oh man oh man Kain is one of AM's favorite people here. And by "favorite" I mean "most hated" and "most fun to play with." Before the encounter in jail, though, Kain was never a threat, and AM never hated him for anything he had specifically done to him, except for saying a few choice words at times. Unlike, say, Light, who had actually killed AM and had denied him a position at the new labs.

Since Kain is human, AM already hates him completely though. Add to that the fact that Kain is a warrior, perpetuating the violence that led to AM's creation, and Kain had done some shitty things because of his HUMAN inclinations, and you get someone AM really wants to hurt. c: Also, Kain has confirmed that he would rather die than be tortured, so it makes his torture even more fun. He is one AM has gotten hold of multiple times, and each time it is just better and better. For AM, Kain pretty much represents the archetypal warrior, pretending to be honorable but actually being a total hypocrite who just wants to get laid. It's a way of taking his frustrations out on the entire concept of war and honorable violence.

Also, AM has some good dirt on Kain so he is fairly confident he can hurt Kain without repercussion. So that makes him really convenient to target. However, with Rio questioning him and now knowing that Light and L were aware of the tortures, he realizes maybe it's not without repercussion...

NOW AT THE JAIL... this will change somewhat. Now Kain will add the factor of having actually hurt AM (besides, you know, existing as a warrior and thus enabling his creation in the first place). Kain will actually become an active threat to AM and he will start to have a bit of fear of him. But that fear will turn to even more hatred and will pretty much guarantee revenge. Repercussions or not, Kain needs to pay and suffer. He will move very high up on the list of "people in Ryslig AM hates the most". He's probably at like Position #6 now, but will probably move up to like #3 or #4 (actually killing him would guarantee a number one spot).

So tl;dr: Kain is one of AM's favorite toys here in Ryslig. He's fun and he also tastes delicious. And his hair is really pretty.

I was hanging on to every word, just WAITING for the hair to be mentioned!

But yesss I love all of this, I love hearing just what an enemy Kain has in AM... an enemy he made only by existing. WHO KNOWS if it worked in the right way maybe someday he'll kill him... Kain would be all honorable about it though so he gets off without torture... mockery, sure thing.
