[ kaveh opens his mouth to protest, because of course he wants to tell the man to shove it. he's being obnoxious in his demandsrequests, but he can'twon't because he needs the money. he really does hate owing alhaitham mora, because he already owes him so much already. sure, sure, one more month of rent might not seem like much to him, but to kaveh... it's just another pile of mora to add to his mountain of crushing debt. ]
[ he heaves a sigh and doubles over, taking his head in hands. ] It would be nice not to feel like I'm nothing more than... a burden...
Pii pi ppi. [ i'm not louder than kaveh's snoring. ]
W- What?! I don't snore! [ he snaps upright and shoves a finger in mehrak's 'face'. ]
Pi. [ you do. ]
I do not! [ mehrak moves around the couch. ] Piii pi pi. [ when you're drunk you do.
Pii pi. [ mehrak leers at alhaitham and then chirps again, leaving... and if alhaitham listens to his beeps as he's doing so he'll be able to make out that he's saying he's not going to get him coffee beans again. ]
No. [ he leans a bit closer to alhaitham now that he's put his arm behind the couch and more or less made a little room for him. ] I didn't have money to pick up anything and, well, look at the state of our house.
... [ kaveh LEERS are him. ] I'll give you Dendro overflow... I do not need it. I know there are other food groups Alhaitham. Do you know there are hobbies outside of reading books? [ uses the same 'mocking' tone alhaitham used on him. ]
I would certainly know about the existence of hobbies, because I know what it's like to have work-life balance.
[TECHNICALLY he doesn't right now since he's still Acting Grand Sage but whatever he can't let Kaveh think he's been waiting for the other man to come home like a sad puppy even if that was exactly what he was doing.]
Not all of us can have our jobs handed to us on a silver platter. [ ie, shutup. he doesn't really have the best come back for that, but he does look and sound annoyed. alhaitham already knows how he feels about his position of acting sage. lucky bastard. ]
Let's just get over to Lambad's. Mr. Work-life balance can foot the bill, since he's clearly got his stuff together. [ not that it was going to be any other way. going into this they both knew alhaitham would take care of things. kaveh can barely pay his half of the rent on time... let alone cough up the mora for anything else. ] I guess I am pretty hungry.
[He is absolutely RADIATING smug, because this means two of his favorite things: winning against Kaveh, and taking care of Kaveh. He lifts a hand to adjust the feather in Kaveh's hair. Isn't that sweet?
And then he opens his mouth.]
Straighten yourself out, you look like you got into a fight with a laundry shop and lost.
[ ...! ] Excuse me?! You-! [ kaveh inflates his cheeks, which turn red as he tries to come up with an insult to throw back in alhaitham's face. instead, he ends up gritting his teeth and growling at him like an animal. ] I do not! I look fine! you should be honored to be seen with me!

[He slings an arm over the back of the couch, behind Kaveh, relaxing like there isn't a giant overgrowth of plant taking over half their house.]
Did you skip dinner again?

And then he smirks.] Good thing I saved an Akademiya dictionary from our Dendro overflow, because you clearly need it.
