Why does Jhin have no lines towards Kindred?
If Jhin views every murder as a performance, I'm surprised he never once acknowledges the one thing that is ALWAYS there to appreciate his work.

You have to remember that Kindred is death incarnate. From a play view, we see em fighting no big deal, but in lore wise, those who see Kindred are normally those who just died, or narrowly escape death if we take that one Kindred story into account. Jhin probably sees them as Ionia folklore, a culture he doesn't seem to enjoy that much.
Simple, Kindred doesn't like Jhin. She thinks he is a pshycho murderer and she will gladly feed him to wolf when the time comes.
So, Jhin is to scared to even talk about Kindred.
Maybe because Kindred only appears to those who are about to die. Jhin does not appear to be dying anytime soon.
It's always possible that Kindred just hasn't revealed themselves to Jhin yet.
If Kindred revealed themselves every time someone died, then the Demacians/Noxians would be really damn confused on the battle field.
So what I'm saying is that I'm not sure Jhin even knows who Kindred is, even when fighting against them.
I have the same question about Karthus actually
If I had to guess, it's because he'd be more acquainted with Wolf than Lamb. His victims certainly don't welcome death and Jhin's seems like the kind of person who tries to hide his fear behind his performance. And if that's the case, Wolf is more of a feral beast, a force of nature, it'd be difficult to communicate with him.
Well I for one know exactly why Jhin doesn't have any lines for Kindred. He's just way too embarrassed to approach Kindred because of how beautiful he finds them.
That or even he knows not to mess with Lamb's jealous boyfriend.
Different people see Kindred in different ways, maybe how Jhin sees killing as art means that he sees Kindred as just part of that art, or Kindred just hasn't appeared to him yet.
Perhaps he just doesn't believe in Kindred.
He doesn't care. He is not obsessed with "death" but with "killing" and doing it in an "artisically" way.
Bump! :D
This is actually a really good point. I love the whole idea of Kindred being his "#1 fan", being there at the scene of every one of Jhin's crimes. Would like a rioter to comment on this if possible.
Because he has no interest in knowing sheep. Only eating them. And having a rug made from a wolf too.
He's basically Hannibal Lecter with a magic gun and a mask.
