Covering rent sometimes is objectively nice unless he's extorting Kaveh for...

[ What does Kaveh offer. Vash sneaks a peek at him before turning back to Wolfwood. ]

Interior... Decorating?

It's his place. I don't think you can extort someone into decorating your place for you.

If anything, most people don't like it when you go ahead and put shit up in their place without askin'.

Okay, what is he getting out of covering Kaveh's rent, then?

...Don't make it sound so shady...

[ Maybe it's pure good will, have you ever considered that. ]

I was the one that said it must be because Alhaitham's nice to some degree?!

[ AND YOU WERE LIKE NO WAY ]

I never said anythin' about there bein' payment! The most I'd make Livio do is do chores and clean up after himself!

[ For some reason he pulls Livio as the example and not, you know, Vash himself, but I guess they also haven't quite lived together exactly. ]

Wolfwood. That's still pretty nice...

[ FREELOAD WHILE JUST DOING CHORES? Vash is generally optimistic and likes to see the good in people, but even he knows generally there is a give and take. ]

What kinda person do you think I am?!

[ THIS WOULD BE NORMAL FOR LIVIO!! ]

What kinda landlord does that make you? Jesus, remind me to make sure I've always got rent if we ever get up to somethin' like that.

I think you're a kind and hardworking person. [ Offers him that annoying and knowing smile. ] I can cover for us if things get to that point.

[ Vash is different than other people... So I don't think asking him what kind of landlord he'd be would work (he'd let people stay for free). But also their situations are different. ]

[ Vash like I'll become your Alhaitham. Also it's a JOKE because Vash keeps saying it like Kaveh is being demanded rent somehow. ]

Thanks, but I like payin' my own share. Keeps things equal.

[ He likes a balanced relationship. ]

I'll think about it.

[ Food and drinks taste so much better when they're on someone else's dime, you understand. ]
