It's not really a "house" - It's Kolat Towers. Kolat Towers is a pair of wizard towers surrounded by a small compound. There's a lot of spare rooms.
That doesn't mean Razira wouldn't feel disadvantaged or pressured to react a certain way in the power dynamic. It doesn't have to do with Konsi's internal dialogue. This has been established for reason most commonly in lawsuits dealing with sexual harassment between supervisors and their reporting employees.
First of all, Razira propositioned Konsi, Konsi hasn't "pressured" her to do anything. Quite the opposite in fact, Konsi tried to talk her out of it at first.
Secondly Razira's a traveling paladin - she spends most of her time on the road, and only stops in the city occasionally, most days she camps on the road.
Thirdly, both of them have a permanent home in the temple, nobody's ever going to be "homeless"
These things have all been established in the narrative of this comic already.
Fourthly, Konsi isn't Razira's "landlord". Razira doesn't "pay rent". They just live together.
Fifthly, "my house" here is shorthand for a large compound that the adventurers own jointly. Razira is one of those owners as well.
It looks like the person asking the question here is speaking from a place of hurt and their own difficult personal experiences, which might have made them sensitive to things that remind them of something that happened to them.
That said, it is extremely clear that there is nothing improper going on. Konsi would probably be 100% aware of some kind of improper relationship in the first place and wouldn't let it happen.
Anyway. Konsi anime when ๐
Dude, this is a light-hearted cute comic about people falling in love. It's not really an appropriate venue for accusing the author of romanticising sexual harassment in the workplace.
I'm not accusing her of doing that on purpose. I'm informing her that it reads that way to people who've been subject to similar situations in the past.
"I'm not accusing her of doing that on purpose" means you ARE accusing her of doing that, which is fucking ridiculous.
It absolutely does not. Please stop.
Oh I'm sorry, I don't mean to say you accused her of doing that on purpose, I'm informing you that it reads that way to other people.
If your takeaway from this is that it's "sexual harassment" then that's a you problem.
