"Sex appeal over brains, mmm? Well yes, I do see your point." A sly conspiring look, "Gentlemen do prefer blondes, or so I've heard." Not that Rem wasn't smart, she was very smart and very dangerous in Law's point of view, but compared to John...
If Bil was giving Rem preferential treatment of her flock, that was one thing. Though over John, the Great One? ... did he even have that sort of influence anymore. Law had to wonder. There were other players involved in this game, and he certainly didn't know all the pieces on the board.
And if that was remotely true about Kin'cora, Law had to question why. On the surface, such a thing was unlikely. They had abandoned the MSF and the other draftees at the first whiff of trouble at Vaskoth, many had openly and indiscriminately begun to murder 'Lucies' at TERRACE whether they had co-operated or not. Luceti had proved loyalty many a time before, while they were staunchly anti-Malnosso. They were young. On the other hand, they were self-reliant and united. And probably easier to determine where they stood on any given day than Luceti, with its ever shifting nature.
So yes, if that was remotely true, thinking on it he could see the attraction.
"Mister John isn't exactly Great on that front. Though you got to wonder if they wouldn't offer him something nice in exchange for his secret in reversing Death Penalties."
