As cold and despicably indifferent ML seems, he cares for Nain genuinely and in fact he seems to *only* care about Nain altho his intentions are misplaced and is totally oblivious to Nain’s displeasure if he doesn’t pay enough attention and ends up making Nain sad but his heart means well at least and I can’t not appreciate that, perhaps if ML had paid more attention to Nain’s reactions or if Nain were honest and less fearful of him and told ML about his displeasure for blood, at best he would have likely be confused as to why instead of going on to punish Nain for not aligning with him. But that’s just my theory
