A/N: Just if anyone wants to know: the quote comes out of episode 17.
He was afraid to sleep.
He was the master of the superior facade, surpassing even Vash's cheery mask. He was the epitome of control. Master of the Gun-Ho-Guns.
When he slept, he was Knives, master of none.
When he slept, he was Knives, the part-plant, part-human child who foolishly fantasized about an Eden where the humans trash resided.
When he slept, he dreamt of an innocence lost.
"Vash, do you think I'll be eaten too someday?"
When he slept, he dreamt of a monster.
