it's another way that despite what others may say, and despite what happens around them, this place is still a luxury in comparison and erwin is more than happy to benefit from that.

[ it's not like he's not going to understand the appeal of a guy like jesus, but it will be a pleasant surprise when he finds out what that whole vibe was. not the religion part, but the being nice to people part. that's pretty great.

(he'll figure it out later. he's too busy right now.) ]
