"So the Jackal, he keeps you imprisoned here like…"
Everything in here, in this chamber, this tower, even the fine linen on Kaine's body, sang with both wealth and isolation.
"…some kind of pet?"
or: the Rapunzel!Kaine fic.

Shoutout to eughi/jerribbit with whom I had a conversation where I made an offhand comment about Kaine's Rapunzel-esque hair, at which point I found myself immediately seized by this fic idea.
they better give pavitr a clone saga at some point
kaine and ben reilly's relationship is heavily based off of cain and abel-- the "am I my brother's keeper" and the like. Kaine's name is literally a play on that. It's been acknowledged several times in the comics.
a really interesting adaptation for pavitr would be bhim (ben) and karna (kaine)
the inspiration for this comes from the Mahabharatha.
Simplifying the Mahabharatha: There are five brothers called the Pandavas (one of whom is named Bhim), who are heirs to the throne. However, their 100 cousins (Kauravas) also have a claim to the throne. They go through a great deal of hardships, after which the Pandavas win.
The leader of the Kauravas, Duryodhan, befriends someone not of noble blood, Karna, and elevates him to kingly status.
Karna is actually the first son of the Pandavas' mother; however, she abandoned him after his birth, as she was an unwed woman scared of being ostracized. Karna refused to forgive her, but promised he wouldn't hurt her four of her sons, except for one (Arjun).
The Pandavas only found out the truth after Karna's death.
so. could you imagine the narrative potential if we had Bhim and Karna? Brothers who feuded, and hell--didn't know they were brothers. (Pavitr works into this story somehow I swear--)
