When Etienne dropped him off at Toby's apartment one morning, May greeted him with, "You're having breakfast with the Luidaeg tomorrow. It'll do you good, now go sleep and no, she hasn't come out yet."
He started to say something then smiled before hugging May and giving Cagney, Lacey and Spike pets, "Can I help with dinner?"
May beamed at him and he went to bed full and hopeful, the Luidaeg would know what Toby needed.

Quentin leaned against a pole as he watched the food trucks lighting up the little square and tried to figure out the best dishes to order. Whenever there were a lot of food trucks, there were always a few meals that were plain better. He had his eye on one called Proper Tucker and another that was simple My Old Cupcake Home.

The shrimp, as it turns out, are rather large and so she orders four plates, one for her and a couple for Quentin. She know growing boys. Of course, if he doesn't like shrimp, she can eat it.
"Is she eating?"
