Yes, the diagram is a reference. Yes, there are points for getting it.
Liking index:
Love <-- Liking <-- Indifference --> Dislike --> Hate
Pretty self-explanatory. Characters are ordered from left to right, positive to negative. The colour of the bar indicates their relative position on the scale.
Motive index:
Benevolence <-- Neutrality --> Malevolence
Again, pretty obvious. If you've got a high malevolence score, you can expect him to take any opportunity to fuck your shit up; likewise, high benevolence means he's apt to go far out of his way for you. Neutrality means he'll neither help nor hinder you - at least, in your own right. A low score in either direction is more of a mood - a malign or benign aura.
It's worth noting that his interpretation of your best interests might not coincide with yours - as with
refractings and
terusagoodboy, who stalky thinks need saving from themselves, and
smallpackaging, who should be protected from - well, anything more than a light breeze.
The colour of the arrow indicates their relative position on the scale.
Patterns:
He prefers AUs to Kiraverse characters who fought him. AUs of himself, on the other hand, are unwelcome.
His four ~major serious haets~ are all Nears, Mellos and Ls - people who directly challenged him.
Sayu, the madonna, is on his immediate left. Misa, the whore, is on his immediate right. Near is slightly off the central line - far further beyond the pale than
firm_detective, for all the antipathy they've developed. Any reasonably canon, post-canon Near will hit the bottom of the scale running.
People rated Love and higher (Sims, anyone?) will cause him to think long and hard before screwing them over - and it's likely by now that he'll still do it in the end; nothing here should be taken as an indicator of how he'll act. The measurements are intended to be neutral. For instance, in the motive column, note that he wants to hurt Near more than he wants to protect Sayu. But, it's all profit and loss; he needs to gain more than he'll sacrifice.
