i still remember..when Traveller said Thank you to Alhaitham he said "You don't need to thank me,I don't do favours like that."
And when Kaveh said Thank you to Alhaitham, alhaitham pretends to not hear him..twice..and then just goes "..well,they do say that earnest thanks should be said thrice."
AND THEY'RE ROOMATES.
And they argue like an old married couple 😭
And at the end of that event we could hear kaveh be all like "Oh, I'll just buy some extra food to bring back home"
And then when we meet alhaitham and tell him that Kaveh was the one treating us,he says "Well,then I'd expect he packed up the leftovers for me."
THEY'RE NOT CANON.
THE THING IS,GAY COUPLES IN CHINA ALSO SOMETIMES PRETEND TO BE ROOMATES LIKE THIS.
HOYO IS A CHINESE COMPANY
And all the more "obvious" queer coding has been showing allooot since they've moved HQ to somewhere else In China idk ABT 👀
