HEY.

It... is no secret indeed that these two do not like each other! But Lucas's being outright... petty and hostile isn't about any personal/personally-based element to it - heck, his trolling would probably take on more typical and arguably-detached forms if it had anything to do with L on an immediate level. In fact, even his picking at and actively, vocally disliking personality things - e.x. he finds L pedantic and full of himself; outside of arguments or turning these things likewise-personally on him, he'd simply mark these things as "facts" that could be used as points to poke at or navigate around for the most part - is fueled entirely by seeing and being mortally offended by L as a perceived threat and imposition of an at-least-would-be obstacle to the downright paradise-like life he's been living as a monster; he's not actually... afraid of L - his pride has been given no reason to drop to a level of "I, myself, might seriously get in trouble someday" - but he sees him as an infringer on the territory of his freedom, and nothing freaks him out or frazzles him like that. His bickering with him is perceived as a way to get into minor scraps and at least by perception try to whittle away at things - it's the same kind of sentiment as egging the house of someone who was really, really rude to you who you can't get back at in a bigger way; he can't even genuinely enjoy outwardly-playful reactions with him with being unable to think about the guy without raised hackles and entering angry-conflict mode.
