Yo I can see me malice being a sort of a mean, spoiled brat towards devil (or anyone), except to evil.
He’s the only one who doesn’t have to fear her wrath. He just sits there while she goes on an angry rant then after he gives her a hug she automatically feels so much better.
He’s too dumb to even realize it too, his thought process is just “must destroy. Kiss Malice. Want barbecue. Steal. Give Malice flowers”
Absolutely.
I think that Evil is just Malice's emotional support teddy bear that's doubles as her right hand that takes care of the light work for her.
I also believe that he follows her around like a big puppy all the time and just sits there watching in love and admiration as Malice just levels half an Isle. He'd also just sit and listen lovingly as Malice talks about the most horrendous things, like finding new ways to torture the phone dude.
Also, I imagine that Cuphead and Ms. Chalice often have a hard time expressing affection with each other but have no problem as Evil and Malice. Because they don't care where they are or who they are with, one would at least be leaning on the other. Evil is especially affectionate with Malice, like whenever she is angry about something or is having a bad day he would just come up to her and give her a hug from behind, telling her how happy he is to see her.
He goes out of his way to make her feel happy. Like he'd hurt people or break something just to make Malice laugh, find her favorite flowers, or just hug her and tell her how pretty she is or something sappy like that
