I just took Dandy and Twisty's 'friendship' (?) as Dandy being a sever case of good boy gone bad. The last two episodes set Dandy as a spoiled sheltered kid, always mentioning how bored he was in his mom's house. That's why he wanted to run away to the circus and later just ended up liking the excitement of being around a murderer. He liked that he was doing something different, something bad.

Maybe there's something more to it, but I think it's just part of Murphy's hyperbolic style. Everything's exaggerated, but it's definitely inspired. Ya know that theory about preacher's daughters being the wildest ones. I kind of just think it's a twist on that kind of idea.
