[Someone who has defined you for as long as you can remember existing?]
No. I don't know what that is like. [Her voice takes a more somber, heavy tone, gaze flickering down, and looking somewhere far beyond anything in the room. Aside from Coran, she's outlived everyone she's ever know or will know. Well, save for one,] And the only person I know like that, I would gladly kill him, if we ever crossed paths again.
[Good talk. She shifts in her chair, letting some of the gravity drop from the conversation, as she considers what he's really talking about.] But... I think I know what you are talking about. I have not known them for long, but Keith and Lance - the humans. My life would not be the same if not for them.
There is someone I would gladly bleed the life out of, as well... [Though Food Souls don't die quite so easily as humans do, and it might be a task to get the job done... he'd see it through one day.]
But maybe you do understand a little. [Red Wine tips his head slightly and smiles at her.]
I wouldn't call Steak my friend. The bond we have is far deeper and more complicated than that.
[She isn't wrong, though neither of them would easily admit it.
He reaches over for the package, lifting it out of her hands and setting it to one side. It's not his business what's in it. At least one of them has a sense of the others privacy.]
I will, thank you. I'm not sure where he is now, but I can't imagine he'll be too long. Did you want to wait?

I think you both might benefit from making it less complicated.
[Said with a small laugh. Suddenly remembering herself, she shifts on the couch, picking up the package,]
That’s right… I came here to deliver this to Steak. He left it at DiplomaTea. I trust you can see that he receives it.
