One of my favorite things about the game's writing of Alhaitham and Kaveh:
The basic game text goes out of its way to convince us that the house is Alhaitham's--it is literally called "Alhaitham's Home" even during Kaveh's hangout.
Tumblr media
But in-universe, we never see Alhaitham in his house unless Kaveh is there.
Throughout Sumeru's archon quests, we run into Alhaitham practically everywhere: in Port Ormos, in Aaru Village, in the Akademiya, at the Grand Bazaar. But never, despite the fact that the story wants to sell him as a homebody, in his own home. In fact, the only references we have to Alhaitham's house at all throughout the entire lead up of the archon quests are mentions of Kaveh.
Tumblr media
Alhaitham doesn't suggest going there, doesn't ever go home himself (at least that we're explicitly told about) until the end of the archon quests, and has no cutscenes in his own house until Kaveh returns from the desert.
Then, all the sudden, Alhaitham literally can't wait to go home and walks off in the middle of a conversation.
Tumblr media
From that point on, every time we're permitted to enter Alhaitham's house, in story quests, the hangout, and the event, it's either when he and Kaveh are together or with Kaveh alone.
Tumblr media
Even during Alhaitham's birthday skit of all things, they went out of their way to tell us that Alhaitham's home, so of course Kaveh is there:
Tumblr media
The map tag tells us the building is Alhaitham's Home, but the story reinforces a different idea:
It's Alhaitham's home when Kaveh is in it.

every single time you stress out about your taxes, or your rent, or your debt, or your mortgage, or your car payment, or your medical bills, or climate change, or your stress over having to work and just do basic things like eating----- remember that if you have children, *you are directly responsible** for them feeling all of that suffering and stress and pain when they grow up.

had a day that made me think oh that was a bit heavy on the symbolism, wasn't it
#j. talks#went to visit my brother in his uni city and also connected it with an event there#I know this event because I went there once with a uni course that of course was with my fave former prof#so I know she's usually there but it's a bigger city and Friday and there are a lot of things at different locations#chances are not zero but I thought come on if anything it will be casual running into her#well as I was waiting with my brother and a whole crowd of people to be let in who do I hea#and see :))) yeah it's my fave prof. and I told my brother and he told me to go and say hi but there were so many people already talking to#her and also going there and saying hi so I simply couldn't. I literally froze our shoulders were nearly touching but she wasn't even facin#me and taking and I just followed my brother and he was like???#what was that?? and I didn't know. and he asked my why I looked so shameful out of all the emotions I chose shame#and I don't know. I don't know why shame I consuming me no matter where I go. but she was busy and imagine I go up and she has no idea who#am anymore. they had to burry me right there and then. so that was that :) now#the name of that street of the location burned into my memory as I was facing the wall well it's the name of [redacted] who I never really#get over and it's been 10 years now soon. and we had a similar experience in December :) where I would have loved nothing more really than#to talk (in Decembar definitely also other things that I miss on some days very much) but I barely got a wave#so yeah :) I actually had a great day but I am more than overwhelmed. I feel like crying and hiding#taurus season is apparently not here to save me? idk#is this all about wasted potential and shame stopping me? maybe. but how the fuck do I get it out of me

My cat just ran outside while I was taking my dog out to the bathroom, refuses to come back while calling her and shaking food at her. Actively runs in the opposite direction. And ofc someone broke the laser pointer I keep on my keys so I can't trick her back into the apartment. I'm so pissed that shit broke off, all my other crappy keychains are still attached. The laser was how I got her back last time she escaped but she'd only taken a few steps out and I was able to snatch her.
And I'm not supposed to have her so I can't even notify the apartment complex a cat is missing 😐 guess she's an outdoor cat now :/

Some asshole just dropped a plate (or something ceramic) by the stop sign outside my house and drove off and now there’s broken stuff spread out on the street.

i genuinely believe that with every album, taylor gets better. we can all have our favorites, but every album is better than the one that came before it. the only exception is lover...

i've decided my august project will be finally walking every street in the historical city center on foot. i started today wandering up and down strada maggiore/via santo stefano/a bit of via san vitale and in between alleys and side streets.

Man I've run right out of spoons. Fucking despise shopping. Never again. Goodbye free time for the next 2 weeks now apart from MAYBE the coming weekend, wish me luck lads
#tuesday is gonna be my one comfort day bc i get to commit minor arson and put it out AND i'll be home on time#the arson is paid by work too!! it's part of the safety training i chose to do which has been a fucking BLAST#but yeah after that the best i get is the weekend bc i get to go home to scotland for 3 days#except it's for a wedding near Perth so a) not in Edinburgh and b) idk what my schedule will be or if i get chill downtime or what#man i do love referring to scotland as home tho 🥺 saying im going home just now was like giving myself a wee hug#like i need to do that regularly. reaffirm. how do i feel about Edinburgh? yup - still home ❤️#genuinely (okay mini tangent here) the first time i returned after being forced to leave everything behind? i was so frightened#i feared i would resent the country for forcing me out. that i would only ever feel bitter again as i wandered its streets and landscapes#except the second i left haymarket station and saw the familiar streets i broke down sobbing#it was still familiar. it was still home.#i felt so fucking much in that moment#scotland has always been a choice. going there. staying there. wanting to build my future there#i had to consciously make that decision every year. even more so when brexit hit#i had to start figuring out what i wanted to do with passports. with residence status. with my future and identity#brexit and politics made me think and choose over and over again. i had to fight to validate my feelings to myself. i battled panic attacks#so yeah. going home to scotland#im still choosing. im still affirming. im still feeling#anne speaks#i really went off topic lmao but ah well fuck it#anyway no spoons left im gonna collapse a bit and maybe do some archaeology in elder scrolls. dig up wee artifacts. vibe
