A.N. I decided to jump on the bandwagon and do some drabbles, since I love short stuff. These are my first attempts at shounen ai (though really they are mostly just overtones of it). Mangaverse, major spoilers.

You can, my glorious master. Take my tears.
(For the record, quote is John 3:4, New Revised Standard Version, and I don't own the Bible either).
Note: Legato's POV. In the manga, an adult Knives is reborn from a female plant which dies, as Legato and the other GHGs look on.
