Disclaimer: Standard disclaimers apply. I shamefully admit I don't own Get
Backers, although I can assure I'd sell my soul to Satan if I could. But
considering I'd sell my soul to Satan for an early copy of the next Jak and
Daxter game that's not really saying much. BUT STILL! Anyway, don't sue me.
I'm just some poor raving fangirl and more trouble than I'm actually worth.

Warnings: I wrote this in the middle of the night. I don't know why. Don't
ask. If you like it, say so! I'll give you a cookie * holds up tantalizing
good cookie *. If you don't like, please feel free to point and laugh. I
know I did. Oh yeah, some Ban x Ginji shounen-ai, but this is Get Backers
we're talking about (not to mention an Ai-chan fic), the shounen series
where the shounen-ai isn't so much as implied as it is just blatantly there
for even the biggest doofus to say: "Whoa-ho, those two dudes are so making
it with each other!"
Note: "Tare" is the name given to Ginji when he's in his cute pudgy chibi
mode! He looks like the Tare Panda which makes me quite certain the
creators of this series take some sort of sick demented pleasure out of
hearing the high-pitched wails of spazzing fangirls. Anyway, who can refuse
ELEVEN TARE-GINJI'S?
Eleven Tare-Tare
Eleven Tare -Tare live in a tree
With a Ban-chan Bird up in the leaves
And everyday
They'd go and play
Down by the deep blue sea

One Tare-Tare, on a fateful day
From the Tare-Group he went a-stray
When down with a swoop
And up with a scoop!
The Akabane-Pelican stole him away!

Two Tare-Tare all alone
Were playing "fortress" on a giant stone
When two strangers they met
And in one giant net
Kazu-Neko and Juubei-Toro took them to a far away home!

Three Tare-Tare had lost their way
In the deep dark woods at the end of the day
When they heard a huff
And a puff
And Big Bad Shido-Wolf had blown them away!

Four Tare-Tare had climbed a tree
Climbed to see what they could see
And what they saw
Put them in awe
Because Hevn-Fox's bust is as big as can be
Needless to say
She took them away
Far across the deep blue sea.

One Tare-Tare alone remained
All by himself, deeply pained
He went straight home
All alone
And cried as it started to rain

Then!

In a flash of light
With flare and might
Ban-chan Bird came to save the day!

In one solemn pact
They decided to act
And would travel to get the ten-Tare back!

The first Tare they saved
Was in Akabane-pelican's dark evil cave
He was being used
And abused
As Akabane-pelican's target practice!
And just for the sake of torture
He would purposely miss!
Needless to say, Ban-Bird was very pissed.

The next two Tare were found in a set
Caught up in a great big giant net
Kazu-neko and Juubei-toro swore they'd be freed
As soon as they found out if Tare could breed!
But despite these promises, Ban-bird had the need
To let the Tare-Tare go home back to their tree.

Through the woods the next three Tare were scattered
Not deeply cut or severely battered
But hurt enough to make Ban-bird madder!
So he huffed
And he puffed
AndgrabbedthebigbadShidowolfbythecollarandmadehimregrethehadeverlaidahandonG
inji!Imeanreallywhodoesthisguythinkheisthedirtyrottensonofa-
* Ahem *
And the Big Bad Shido-wolf got extremely rattled.

The last four Tare-Tare, the final hurdle
Was enough to make Ban's blood curdle
For over the sea
Awaited she
The Hevn-fox in her sexy girdle
But then the Tare, Lonely Tare who hadn't been kidnapped
On Ban-chan Bird's shoulder gently tapped
"Ban-chan bird, if you're afraid of she
Who lives across the sea
Far from our tree
Remember I plea,
You'll always have me."

Ban-chan bird with resolve anew
Took the Tare's words to be true
And as his boat departed he held them dear
And without fear
Called to the Tare: "I shall always think of you!"

He returned to home within a week
Victorious, though of his battle he did not speak
Content to merely be
Alone, with his Tare and he

Though to this day we know not how he won
But the Ten Tare-Tare can play safely under the sun
While Ban-chan bird and his dear, no longer-longer-lonely Tare
Are in the bushes, having a lot more fun!3
