[ Alhaitham assumes he means a boat because he doesn't know any better. ]

What reasons are those?

[ Internally he's a little bit like wow read the room Alhaitham I didn't list them for a reason. He thinks Alhaitham is fine enough that he doesn't mind talking a little bit anyway though. ]

Wanderers.
Vash is because he ended up getting a huge bounty on his head for having bad luck and poking his nose in wherever he went and everyone thought he was some kind of big shot guy.

[ When it comes to things Alhaitham wants to know about, the room hardly matters most of the time, even if he can read it. Sorry Wolfwood. ]

Kaveh also invites misfortune into his life by poking his nose in where it doesn't belong, but never to the extent that he earned a price on his head.
How did someone like Vash manage that?

Lawless land, buddy.
When someone wants someone dead, the easiest thing to do in a world where we're all fighting to survive is to put a bounty on their head.
Keep evading that bounty and beating up your pursuers and they start racking up the price on your head to get better, or at least more reckless headhunters.
Rinse and repeat.

Who was it that placed the bounty in the first place?

I don't know that.
You'd have to ask him.

I will.
This bounty hasn't been lifted then.

No.

I see.
Thank you for answering my questions.
Does Kaveh know about this?

[personal profile] crucifer 2024-01-22 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know.
I don't really police what they talk about.
It's not a secret or anything but we didn't exactly talk about bounties and how much we're worth over in the "game".

I'll speak with Vash then.

[ Because he thinks Kaveh should know about this unless there's a good reason why he shouldn't. He can't imagine what that would be, but it's worth talking to Vash about in general. Alhaitham has his reasons. ]

Kaveh did mention that there are children among you. Is that true?

[personal profile] crucifer 2024-01-22 11:47 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't say it like that.
Makes it sound like we travel with kids with us.

I got some kids I'm looking out for. Orphanage.
They're with the people that looked after Vash right now.

[personal profile] diffract 2024-01-25 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
That's what I was trying to figure out.
So that's why Kaveh insists that the two of you take as much as you can when you leave Sumeru.

He's pretty nosy.

[ THAT WORRYWART they've survived long enough without stuff, they'll survive. But it is a nice gesture. He may refuse things for himself often but he appreciates the help for the kids. ]

It sounds like Kaveh and Vash have that in common.
Does it bother you that Kaveh sends you off with gifts?

[ When will Dreamwidth stop 403-ing me challenge. ]

I wouldn't say bothered.

[ He really does just bully the hell out of Kaveh like oh you're such a fuckin' weenie but he can't say no to people wanting to give his kids some nice things. Or Wolfwood nice things. Hey he won't say no to free food or something that lets him save on cash. ]
