The Slave Auction Meme



❧ Leave a comment with the character's name, fandom, and whether your character will be playing the part of 'slave' or 'master', plus preferences for scenarios if you have any.
❧ Respond to others with one of the scenarios below or feel free to make up your own.
❧ Please remember to be respectful of others while you play

Warning: Be aware that this meme deals with dark subjects like slavery and may also contain non-consensual/dubiously consensual sex, violence, and kink.

SLAVES

1. The Newbie - This is your very first auction and you don't quite know what to expect. Hopefully you remember your training and don't disgrace yourself in front of your new master. Hopefully someone thinks you're worth buying at all.

2. The Oldtimer - You've been bought and sold and bought again so many times. You've seen it all before and don't think this time is going to be much different. In fact, the only real anxiety you've got is whether or not someone's going to pay for a more than slightly used slave.

3. The Pet - You're a pleasure slave. A bed warmer. A decorative piece of artwork. You're meant to look pretty and be pleasing and not much else.

4. The Guard - Your master hired you because of your ability to swing a sword or shoot a gun, not your looks.

5. The Escape Artist - Somehow you always manage to squirm out of your master's chains. Too bad you seem to get caught after a while. Maybe your next daring escape will be permanent. Then again, maybe your next master has special ways of keeping you locked up.

6. The Undercover - You aren't a slave at all, you're just pretending to be one. Why? Well that's up to you. Either way, your cover is blown if you don't act the part.

7. The Specialist - You have a skill that no one else has. Something rare and valuable. Something your master needs more than anything else.

MASTERS

1. The Customer - You've owned slaves before and this trip to the market is nothing new to you. Still, you're hoping to find something worth your while.

2. The Gift - Someone bought a pet for you, isn't that nice of them? Or maybe it isn't so nice. Did you even want a slave in the first place? Well you're stuck with one now.

3. The Giver - You're selecting a slave for someone else, and they need to be perfect. Perhaps you'd better test them out first to make sure you're getting your money's worth.

4. The Trainer - You specialize in taming unruly slaves and making them over into perfect, obedient, well-trained pets.

5. The Rebel - You hate the idea of slavery, but the system isn't going to go away any time soon, so the next best thing is to buy up any slave you can get your hands on and free them, right?

6. The Companion - You want someone to be with you always, someone you can talk to and depend on, someone who will never leave your side. It's a good thing that money can buy that these days.

7. The Undercover - You're not actually a Master. You're at the auction for an entirely different reason. Maybe it's special policework, maybe you're trying to hunt down a certain someone. Either way, your cover is blown unless you act the part.

As always, feel free to use a combination of scenarios or make up your own if you have other ideas.

That snap is meant to be withering, but all Gene does is look out the window. Angry Stark is better than Sulking Stark.

"You know that's going to have to overcome twenty years of learned behavior, right?" Gene says, his tone light. Because even if Stark is a humane master, saying 'no' to anything asked of him hasn't been an option for most of Gene's life.

For a moment, Tony is taken aback. Oh, right. The entire world doesn't revolve around him.

Gene's reaction the other night may have bruised Tony's feelings, but it was obviously a survival mechanism, and some of Tony's anger fizzles out at that reminder.

"Then you'd better get started practicing," he says says gruffly. "I have too many groveling ass-kissers already, I don't need another one."

Gene laughs softly. "Sure. I'll keep that in mind." Well, at least they know where they stand with each other, sort of. That's probably good.

He picks up his tablet. "Looks like you're out for lunch. Back for dinner, unless that's changed."

Tony grunts instead of replying. It's not the first time he's told Gene that, and it probably won't be the last. Maybe he's not doing a lifelong slave any favors by trying to train him out of his subservience, but, fuck, he just wants a little more honest human interaction in his life.

He's really not feeling better about any of this, but Gene has called him out on his sulking, so it would be juvenile to continue his 'hide in the lab forever' campaign (he does give it some serious consideration, though. it's very tempting). So when Gene asks him if he's back for dinner, Tony, resigned, just says, "Yeah."

"Good," Gene says, matter-of-factly, as though it had been a given. "I'll go and get some fresh ingredients today."
