to me kabru/mithrun is about the yearning, healing and the tragic of the love between a long-lived elf and short-lived tallman

and the awkwardness of mithrun learning to want a certain tallman again

kabru/laios is:
Laios: info dumping about monsters
Kabru: I don't know if I want to kiss you or kill you

kabru: oh for fucks sake why him

I can see kabru losing his shit over his feelings and gone through a serious denial phase and finally gave in and addmit that he is in love with this freak(laios)

their dynamic is just astronomically funny to me
