AS FOR THE RELATIONSHIP. These recent developments annoyed the hell out of Ling, and that respect Gilgamesh got at the beginning lessened a little because of it. Right now he is unsure whether he can believe his word or not, but he's willing to give Gilgamesh the benefit of the doubt and keep observing things because Ling saw he understood what he said re: YOUR ACTIONS WOULD MAKE YOUR SUBJECT BE ASHAMED OF YOU. The fact he understood and responded like he had hoped (he didn't say "oh well who cares", he got pissed, showing that he cares) pretty much confirmed what he saw in Gilgamesh when they first talked is still there. Also Gil being so similar to Greed makes him see him on the same level and thus act toward him in a similar way.
A thing to say since it ICly came up in a thread with Kakashi, Ling isn't really trying to keep Gilgamesh on a somewhat straight moral path or even change him. That's not something he's interested in! Especially considering Ling's own morals can be pretty damn questionable, and really, he's kind of a dick himself. So what Ling got angry at isn't the fact Gilgamesh killed someone, but the fact he did it for trivial reasons. He saw what Gil did as unbecoming of a ruler and that's why he pretty much pushed his beliefs onto him and went HOLY SHIT IF YOUR SUBJECT SAW YOU NOW THEY'D THINK YOU'RE DUMB AS BALLS. Though he wouldn't have brought that up if it hadn't been for the fact that when he said DID YOU LEARN YOUR LESSON he was like EH WHATEVER THIS ISN'T GOING TO STOP ME. So basically he went damn you're a foolish king >(
but to cut things short he still is willing to keep an eye out for Gil and work with him even if so far this alliance has been super one-sided. It's not that he believes in Gil per se or even that THERE MUST BE SOME GOOD IN HIM (see what I said about not caring to keep him on a straight moral path), but he does think someone who speaks the way he did about his subject can't be all that terrible. He basically hits some of Ling's pings that earns him some amount of dere, though he wouldn't hesitate to fight him if he were to hurt people he cares for for frivolous reasons. Which he doesn't really believe will happen, actually, since he backed down pretty much right away when he pointed out Greed was a comrade of his (by the way despite not liking the fact he hurt Greed, he only gave a warning since Greed pretty much challenged him, so he didn't feel like he had a right to say much except telling both of them to behave).
Holy shit i sure like to write a lot and say nothing at all. TL;DR Gil made things slightly more difficult (especially because Ling hates pretty much not being able to stick by his side despite the fact he's supposed to be his ally. He actually legit felt bad when he said "you got what you deserved" re: having been killed) but Ling still likes him enough to keep working with him and wants to keep observing him and see what sort of person he is and everything. And also he finds him hilarious.
