In a way, I suppose. The clients who hire me tell me their project budgets, and then I allocate the funds as needed--part of that money goes towards paying the laborers. I couldn't survive if I didn't put some money aside for myself.
[Would he work for free if he could. Yeah. But he DOESN'T... all the time...]
[He couldn't do that because he and Alhaitham have matching idle animations about house keys. Also something something morals something something "sets himself on fire to keep others warm" yadda yadda.]
I'll invite you both as soon as it's ready. Then I'll be able to show you real hospitality, without anyone dragging down the evening.
[Alhaitham hasn't even done anything besides refuse to cook]
Oh, don't worry. I'll finally be able to resurrect my social life once I have my own place again.
[Sometimes you believe that nobody knows where you live even though everyone knows where you live because you drunkenly talk about it in public all the time]
[ Vash looks at Alhaitham and thinks to himself that he seems like a guy that would be fine with just staying in his room while Kaveh has friends over, but. Maybe he shouldn't say anything. Kaveh knows himself best. ]
[ he'd probably tell kaveh to have friends over when he's not home, and if anything gets messed up or broken it's on kaveh's dime. he doesn't care otherwise (there's also a library that shouldn't be touched but kaveh knows that)
[ If he didn't already know, and also if Alhaitham wasn't seemingly the most chill person on the planet about it, he'd think this is the most belligerent roommate set-up ever. ]
[Wolfwood like "damn I see Kaveh is the one that sucks actually"
Kaveh just puts his hands on his hips and makes a little hmph sound.]
It's just honesty! Besides, mark my words, we won't get through this evening without him criticizing me in some way. [HE'S JUST PREEMPTIVELY LASHING OUT.]
[ Dully, but also honestly. A little amused. Kaveh's struggle of Alhaitham being his friend but also apparently insufferable... do you like him or not...... ]
[Yeah Kaveh was so soft and depressed all throughout the murdergame but in better circumstances he can be a spirited spoiled brat who needles Alhaitham 7 times out of 10 (in comparison to Alhaitham's 9 times out of 10).]
Is that a jab at my personality? [BULLY? IN HIS OWN HOME?]

[ He doesn't have a problem with this business model really. ]
You ever gonna get your own place?
[ Not that he expects Kaveh to, just curious about his future goals and also his savings. ]
no subject
Of course. [IMMEDIATELY.] As soon as I can. I was going to use the money from the Championship to move out, but... well, you saw.
[The memory of Kaveh saying FUCK YOU RICH BASTARD USE YOUR MONEY TO HELP PEOPLE to Mr. Nihilist ghost]

You really turned all that down, huh.
[ YOU COULD'VE TAKEN THE MONEY STILL, BOUGHT YOURSELF A PLACE, AND THEN DONATED THE REST TO CHARITY KAVEH. Your Genshin writing. ]
Well, good luck. At least you got all the space in the world.

Don't worry, though, it's not a priority at the moment. Nahida's kept me busy out in the desert anyway.

At least that makes Kaveh laugh a little, though it's more of a hah than anything.]
It's fine, I've grown used to it. He's always been this way.
no subject
[ Since Alhaitham seems to be. Like. Okay with all of this too. The repressed homosexuality goes both ways. ]
