i feel like beviin and d'harhan exist on two opposite sides of the spectrum when it comes to boba's friendships as an adult.
beviin is basically the opposite of boba in every way: warm, jovial, and effortlessly kind. yet despite and indeed because of the huge difference in their personalities, boba really values and respects beviin, and often modulates his own behavior to better live up to the person beviin believes he can be.
d'harhan, on the other hand, is someone boba gets along with because they are so similar. they're both bounty hunters who despise vulnerability and who are willing to tear themselves apart trying to excise it from their being, and for whom ruthless violence is an intensely fulfilling, almost religious act that defines their purpose and self-identity...
...yet, despite his seeming friendship with d'harhan, in the end, boba literally rip's his heart out of his chest, then uses and discards of him with no remorse.
it's interesting to see the contrast between how he treats a friend who embodies everything he's not, versus how he treats a friend who mirrors many of his own defining qualities.
