I will do my best to put the stuff in the comments lmao

The bandits:

Sans got her to laugh that hard once. Was surprised but also found it stupid adorable.

"Do it again!"

"No! I hate my laugh!"

I knew this line reminded me of something...

So like, Kayne is essentially blind now, right? Like yeah maybe he can see blurry movements and colors but certainly no more than that.

Kayne is kinda Manager's little obsession, he spent so long despising and FEARING this guy. Now the tables have turned, of COURSE he's gonna take advantage of this!

Kayne's awfully blind, and Manager can be awfully silent when he wants to be. I think he'd take great joy out of startling Kayne for fun. He's so broken it's cute!(Derogatory)

of course Kayne is too weak to fight back and is so heavily at the mercy of this other that he'd constantly be on edge. Not to mention how much his teeth would constantly ache and the sting of his hands and feet being a constant reminder of the type of cruelty Manager can do. For Manager it turns into a game, how many different noises can he get out of Kayne by sneaking up and poking him. Poke prod touch, just to startle him.

Having thoughts about their respective types of torture methods.

YAY MY WIZARD!!!

That's literally so adorable. The more I think about it the cuter it is. AHCKK it'd almost be silly if it wasn't for the predatory look in The Manager's eyes, the genuine fear when Kayne is spooked, and all the undertones...God I love undertones <3

ehehehe. Kayne is so weak he'd probably make such cutie little sounds like. eep!!

Manager: disgusted, intrigued, very a little power-drunk

Kayne: terrified and humiliated

It's glorious. And it's not overt as 'torture' so The Manager can do it anywhere! Including in front of the patrons, then be like. ahaha look at our easily spooked little fawn, pat pat on the shoulder. and Kayne is just. demeaned ^^

It could become a little joke in the Waylay and other Patrons could spook him too! And maybe some are like 'poor thing I don't think he likes it' and he's just more angry, but its not a real point of contention. Everyone in the Waylay is sooo bored, and The Manager does it, and if this guy had a real problem he'd, idk, say something!

Could also assist with a like, panopticon vibe for Kayne. The Manager can sometimes just be watching him, for long periods of time with no indication. And then randomly chime in about something, scaring the life out of Kayne, while also demonstrating he's been there for a while and Kayne hasn't known. Not that the Manager isn't always watching but, difference between it ambiently and so blatant.

Also also has me thinking of touch starved Kayne! Alone for so long...

The Manager pokes and prods at him and after the initial jump scare and adrenaline Kayne just being very aware of the point of contact. When the Manager is doing certain 'boss' bits where his hand abruptly claps over Kayne's shoulder or presses against his back Kayne is hyperfocused on it and The Manager maybe finds it peculiar how docile and dazed he gets when he's touching him. He thinks its the fear at first, till maybe one point where Kayne gets too caught up in the warmth, the solid presence against him. a being, touching him. not alone. not trapped. not alone. not alone, not alone, not alone.

And the Manager goes to move his hand away and Kayne instinctually grabs at it, even says a weak "no!".

They stare at each other startled, and The Manager rips his hand out of his grip in disgust.

His lip is curled back and he's sneering at him revoltedly. smth smth can’t be acting like this with his employer. But then afterwards its another fun thing for the Manager to play with.
