"Just I know that feeding is going to become a thing I'll need to do and soon," she said as she frowned at the can.

She raised an eyebrow at him and said, "Dear, we're going to have a talk about proper orange juice."

Taro took in a deep breath, closing his crimson eyes as he savored that simple moment.  "I don't know.  If it gets another dear out of you then i'm happy to keep getting these orange juices.  Besides, it has sentimental value.  I took this orange juice while on a job for Valarie in the slums.  There was a little girl starving from malnourishment.  I killed the guy in the other alley and took two cans of orange juice.  One I gave to the girl and the other I kept.  I suppose memories don't taste as good when they age, but from the sound of it, you need that orange juice just as much as that girl right?"

Taro bent over and picked out another can, this time grape juice.  "I am more of a grape juice person personally."

"What happened to that little girl?" Forest asked with a tilt of her head.  "After you gave her the orange juice?"

"I played with her and we danced together until she passed out," he said.  "Later on I sent agents to see if she was still alive.  I think it had been a year.  Turned out she had passed away a month after I gave her that orange juice.  I sometimes wonder if she lived longer because I gave her the strength to live on, or if I gave her just enough hope to give up."

The blonde sighed, shook her head, and said, "You should have taken her with you.  You have a lot of resources, you could have helped her."

Still, he's got his soft spots, she reflected as she got up from the couch and moved over to him.  That much was evidenced when he was alone with her.  She rested against him, leaning her head over his shoulder.
