Title: all he can have
Rating: G
Fandom: Baten Kaitos
Relationship: Gibari & Ladekahn
Wordcount: 100
Short summary: That’s all he can ask for.

“Thanks.”

It used to be a word they said back and forth to each other when they were young, when they weren’t so separated by distance and played around like equals. A little favor here, a little gift there… But now, as a common fisherman, a former knight a decade removed… There is nothing Gibari expects from Ladekahn.

“You’re welcome.”

Gibari could say more. He could give a cheeky grin, or even reach out with his hand, and be forgiven for his transgression. But he won’t.

“My king.”

Because “thanks” is all Gibari can ask for, now and forever more.
