He can understand that reaction. He'd feel the same way if someone tried to gift him something like that. Sure if you gave him a thousand dollars, he'd probably be pretty fucking wasteful with it, but it's not like a single thousand was enough to change his life, just make it slightly more comfortable for a little while. A million dollars was...well. That was certainly a life changing amount of money.
And, thinking about that and how pissed off the idea of Dorian was making him, Arthur catches him completely off guard by his question, "I-" Immediate frown, "Okay. Shoot, floors yours." It's not the fight, really, it's the idea that he is going to try and pick at a thread of that. He'd rather not punch Arthur in John's cabin, but he'll give him a chance to be less of an ass this time.
