Dick tastes like the last contraband thing he ate, something meaty 
out of Garth's sight. Garth never demanded that Dick go 
vegetarian, but Dick usually keeps his carnivore's habit to a 
minimum in their kitchen. But there's an order of pork-fried rice 
here, a slice of pizza loaded with pepperoni there. It's Garth's 
closely held secret that even while his conscience shudders, a small 
part of him--the part sucking the last molecules of animal fat off of 
Dick's tongue--revels in the greasy essence of it.
