A short preview:

On morning three of Tim's current case he was throwing himself into — enough to have called out of work sick, Jason decided it was really getting ridiculous, and Tim had to eat some sort of actual food. Please. Anything. Just something.

"You haven't eaten anything besides your nasty kale chips since Friday," he said, setting down a plate filled with plenty of options, if Tim was feeling picky. "You can eat while you work, I made you food, you don't have to do anything except eat it."

Tim didn't even look up. "No, I'm thinking."

"You can still think while you're eating!"

"No, you know I don't do that while I'm working, I don't need things! I'm not- Oh god, I am hungry," Tim cut himself off with a look on his face like he had discovered a mystery to the universe, but a disturbing one.

"Thank god," Jason said, shoving the plate closer to him across the coffee table.

Tim looked down at it like it was a particularly disgusting uninvited guest, and then up at Jason, his expression blatantly accusing him of being the worst combination of crazy and stupid.
