    Here's my honest opinion about Kaveh specifically with his hangout: he's destructive and drained my energy while doing his hangout. He has a heart of gold, yes. And it's very admirable. I love him for his personality. But this very same heart is being abused and manipulated by others (a.k.a Dori) and it breaks my heart whenever it happens. Because eventhough he's aware when someone uses him for their personal gain, he's still okay with it and let his kindness be used against him. With that said, this very same opinion made me love his and Alhaitham dynamic more. I love how Kaveh has someone like Alhaitham (as a friend or as a romantic interest-whichever side you want to interpret it) to set his foot down and remind him not to be so guillable and learn how to say no and decline people who uses him. Kaveh needs a person like that in his life. These two will always be a piece of each other and I'm glad Kaveh has a good friends surrounding him now. This event makes me appreciate his hangout more and his overall character after all those roller coaster ride of emotions❤

      I feel bad seeing Kaveh play a hand in the Dori incident. People usually think Dori is the bad guy behind all this, but the story is multifaceted and Kaveh's perfectionism played a huge hand in his downfall.
      He financially crippled both Dori and himself because he wanted to push his vision to its limit. I really don't know what else I would do if I were Dori.
      I guess he's lucky she's never sent goons over to harass him for payment. I think she's already kind enough to him provided her personality and circumstance.

      Not to be that "actually" person lmao (but also to share to other commenters who don't know), but Dori didn't actually scam him, as the other reply mentioned. I don't know if you've read his character stories yet, but the Palace was destroyed by the Withering mid-construction, and in anger, Dori kicked him out of the project. That's it. He could have walked away debt-free. My assumption is that even she acknowledges how out of control and unpredictable the Withering is, which is why that's all she did. (Editing to add: He also insisted to change the site to the cliffside, which feels like an implication that this was a contributing factor over why the first version got destroyed.) But Kaveh mulled it over and realized he wanted to see the Palace built no matter what, so he literally begged to continue the project and then offered to pay the cost of the rebuilding out of his own pocket. Hence the debt. Sure she didn't stop him, and based on the additional dialogue with Dori at the end of this event, it's implied that she "might" sometimes increase the interest willy-nilly or shorten the deadline of the payment, but as it stands, the initial debt wasn't because of her scamming him. It's all still very much because of his destructiveness and idealism to a fault though, as you mentioned haha.
      And thank you so much for mentioning his relationship with Alhaitham, too! One can even argue that it got so much worse during the fallout (which is when all the Palace shenanigans happened) because he didn't have Alhaitham around to keep him level-headed. So glad that they're good now so they can keep each other in check lmao.

      @@rincognito you and @thegrayyernaut both right about dori. What happened with the project is on his own and his sense of guilt and responsibility for the project. To add to that, Dori even acknowledged Kaveh's talent and passion for his craft hence he was given a second chance to redo the project.

    46:45 it’s INSANE that _the moment_ “Other Layla” shows up, she immediately starts casually spitballing some DANK ideas about how similar the stars behave compared to the leylines! She brings it up as if she’d be able to solve it if she gave it enough research time. After the Bedtime Story quest, it makes you wonder what it might mean o.O
    Layla would high key unravel the secrets of the universe so quickly if she overcame her anxiety and gained the confidence of her other self in her waking hours. She would be unstoppable. And this is also why we need her to meet Mona. PLEEAAASE HOYOVERSE!

    34:41 Someone else already gave a brief summary in the comments, but I want to clarify the full story about Dori "scamming" Kaveh into building her palace, Arnold hasn't read Kaveh's character story yet, so spoilers if you're waiting for that reading or don't have Kaveh
    Here's what happened:
    Dori originally wanted to build the palace somewhere other than where it is in game. But even though she insisted otherwise, Kaveh persuaded her to build the palace there because of his own taste in aethestics. When it was almost finished, the withering came and destroyed all the progress. Dori was obviously furious since it was his idea to build it there, and wanted him to leave the project. Later, Kaveh sold his house AND gave up his savings, in order to complete the project (note that he did all this for his own ideals, NOT for Dori's sake, which she notices as mentioned in Kaveh's character story), and even then, it still wasnt enough, so Dori contributed the rest of the money needed.
    Don't get me wrong, Dori is scummy, but in that scenario, Kaveh's got no one to blame but himself.

    Yeah, Kaveh's kind and compassionate demeanor makes him stand out from the rest of the cast, and it'll eat him alive, no joke, I would thought that he will suffer for his ideals and belief that his suffering through his compassionate belief, it made me realized the relationship between Alhaitham and Kaveh.
    Kaveh represents the soul of the Romanticism movement-emotion, nature, and individual experience; while Alhaitham represents the collective intelligence of the enlightenment movement: usually the reason, science, and intellectual interchange, rejecting superstition and religious dogma.

    - Oh nyo 😭 I love how even tho Cyno does want to win, he just immediately thought to go to where Tighnari is :'D
    - It wasn't really Dori's fault entirely tho 😭 I LOVE Kaveh but he did had a hand in it. Dori left it to him with Mora but the materials got destroyed. He still wanted to finish it so he ended up getting more money from Dori even tho the initial funds were already enough 😢
    - 50:49 ya say that but I feel like it has a truth. iirc for Kaveh, "a house is just a building and not a home if not for the people in it and I genuinely think Alhaitham needs Kaveh. vice versa... I'm so serious gosh
    - 57:18 Alhaitham's eye shift...I'm not delusional or anything BUT ANIMATING THAT RIGHT AFTER MADAME FARUZAN SAYS KAVEH HAD TRIBULATIONS IS INTENTIONAL. GOSH
    - I'm also just gonna mention. Nilou said something about how Alhaitham wasn't really interested in the Interdarshan Championship. We find out later that Alhaitham has been investigating about Sachin...and the connection with Kaveh's father. In simpler (and in shipping lense bias) terms, Alhaitham was only interested in this on behalf of Kaveh's relation to it... Ty for reading my pep talk lmao

    Dori didn't really manipulated Kaveh into debt
    He spend way too much of her money that she gave him to build the palace, but Kaveh made a mistake in planning so he remade the palace again because of his own perfectionism, wasting the initial budget and partially his own. He admits this in his About Dori line. So yeah Dori just requested back her money like any normal person would and she even tries not to extort Kaveh too much (shown in one of the hangout roots) but she has a limit as well. After all the guy took her money, screwed up on the project, and barely made it because he is way too selfdestructive.
    Feels bad a little that she is so misunderstood sometimes.

    34:53 He played a hand in ruining his own life, too. His perfectionism caused him to convince Dori to allow him to go even further with his project, financially crippling both himself and her.

What's even sadder is that some of them don't even have hangout, like Chevreuse and Xingyan. Before I never care for both of them until the Golden Apple Archipelago in 2.8 and the 2 Musketeers Event.

      I will add to all the above that while it's not a good idea to drink too much, in a pitch you can make do and vision holders deal with it better because they have better tolerance for the elements.
      That gets you into a whole rabbit hole of probably part of why Collei did so well with Dottore 's elezar treatments was she has a higher tolerance then the average human, so one must ask is that because she was going to become a vision holder, or if because she could handle the elements better that's part of *why* she got a vision.

    I personally don’t care what people say, the way AlHaitham constantly picks fights with and belittles Kaveh is insufferable to me. I originally had liked him and I thought okay whatever, if he’s going to be cold and logical sure that’s fine. He says he doesn’t care what others do, but he actually does and it feels hypocritical. Sadly he just does not vibe with me after the initial Sumeru archon quest. Kaveh has many flaws but a very complicated interesting character. My friend and I just had a deep talk about how often we will do something for others’ benefit out of guilt even if it takes a toll on us. It might not be the right way to go about it, but we felt our own clear conscience is worth taking on some burdens for others. This is brought up in anime a lot too, and some people may see it as self sabotage and maybe it is.
