So, having fought in the war with Kimblee, and having seen all of the horrible things that Kimblee has done, Maes has, naturally, formed a not-so-pleasant opinion of the man. He's a realist, so he recognizes that war happens, and that people die during it. He, himself, does not feel a huge amount of guilt for the lives that he took in the war; though, it can be argued that his role in the war wasn't nearly as great as the roles of alchemists like Kimblee, Armstrong, and Mustang, and since he was more defense, he didn't actually have as much of an influence on the deaths that happened during the war. Even still, like Kimblee, he understands that, by fighting in this war, deaths were going to happen. However, he was left a little uncomfortable with how blatantly excited about these deaths Kimblee was, and how many innocent lives were lost at Kimblee's hands, without so much as a blink from Kimblee himself.

Then, he came here, and actually had a conversation with Kimblee, which is something he didn't do back during the war. He started thinking that, perhaps, war had just brought out the worst in Kimblee. After all, Mustang had also killed innocent people. Of course, Mustang had felt guilt for it later, and then vowed to avenge the innocents that he killed by becoming Fuhrer and changing the system, while Kimblee had no remorse whatsoever. But now, he's starting to think that, maybe, there's more to Kimblee than just that. After all, Kimblee had no reason to help him, but had done so anyways to a degree. (And he'd agreed that Elicia is adorable. That's plus points in Maes' books.) He has seen enough of Kimblee to assume that the man doesn't often play mind games, as all the times he'd ever spent associating with Kimblee, he's been very direct and to the point. To a degree, he trusts Kimblee to be upfront and thinks that it would be a good idea to keep on Kimblee's good side, because it could yield a lot of help in the future. He does not, however, ever expect Kimblee to really have his back.

... Yup.
