What a great take. Yeah seems doable. I think he craved power over him. Yk some people like it when others depend on them, feel vulnerable with them. I guess uke saw how his parents treated the seme and thought hmmm seems normal lemme try my hand too.
From my perspective, the little brother did start that relationship. probably because he liked having the seme do whatever he wanted. But once he got engaged, he was prepared to throw him away, not thinking about the impact he had on the seme until after the seme killed his parents and locked him up. To me it feels like he lacks his portion in accountability for their relationship. There was a scene where it showed that he made the first move towards a hurt young seme and could be seen smiling as he did it. So yeah, the little brother definitely is and has been manipulating the seme. Why? I don’t know, it almost feels like he’s competing against the seme. Not wanting him to have what he feels is his birthright, since he’s the legitimate child of the deceased parents that took the seme in. Maybe the seme’s presence had felt threatening to him at times. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
