I have a character living in an apartment in a housing project.
In the beginning of the story, she lets another character stay with her in her apartment - not all the time, but quite a lot, specifically off and on during the span of a few months, becoming her "roommate" in a sense.
Then I realized this might be a hard sell for a housing project - adding a roommate to your place. Can that work or is that possible?
Also, if it's not but I were to ignore that fact - would it make much of a difference for the story, or more importantly, the reader?
