Derek is still nervous as hell about this, but at least he can do something. Something vaguely productive. Isaac had put his foot down and said no hunting. In fact, the idea of meat or fish at all seemed to make him ill, which meant that Derek was going to be a vegetarian for the next few months, too

First it's off to the internet for some research to figure out what on earth Isaac can and should eat, as well as some book recommendations. Then picking out a few books at the book store and glaring daggers at anyone who dares try to coo at him, then the grocery store to stock up on lots of healthy food and far too many leafy greens for his own liking.

Also bags of cotton candy. Derek isn't going to ask, he's just going to do it and be thankful it's not something weirder and harder to find.

Back at the house, he starts unloading groceries and deciding what he needs to make Isaac eat first, while he's making dinner.

"Isaac? I'm back," he calls out, loading things into the fridge.
