    Summary

    You didn’t choose this.
    They deserve it.
    It’s not your fault.

    If only Tommy could believe that. Not all of the Red on his hands is blood, but it barely helps. His life at the SCP Foundation is routine: white walls and bland ‘food’ broken up only by visits with Philza if he’s lucky, doctors and researchers if he isn’t, and The Blade if he’s really, really unlucky. Survival has a cost, but rarely is it one he himself pays, and the guilt of what he's done is almost enough to convince Tommy that the Foundation is right to lock up dangerous anomalies like him.

    But then one day a bee appeared in his cell. That’s not to say things got better, but, well, they certainly weren’t so mundane anymore.

    Summary

    Summary

    “I can turn straw into gold,” a child insists. His face is smeared with dirt, tears dried and sticky on his cheeks, but his iris’ are the color of the sky and his hands are clenched into fists. The other kids laugh at him and kick more dirt up at his small body, sneer, and tear into him with cruel words.

    “Gold?” a porcelain smiley-faced figure questions, kneeling before the child and offering out a hand. His face is hidden, his voice is dripping with amusement and greed, but Tommy takes the hand of the first person that has listened since his parents died.

    “He can spin straw into gold?” the emperor questions, a great being with wings of smoke and death and eyes as cold as ice. His twin sons laugh like a funny joke has been told, identical pairs of tusks gleaming in the light of the throne room, and a challenge is set.

    Three days. A room of straw.

    A story that will be spoken about for eons.

    -

    Or; how the Antarctic Empire kidnapped - sorry, adopted - their youngest prince.

    Summary

    Techno's eyes portrayed something strangely familiar.

    He wasn’t looking at him in malice. He did not point at Tommy and laugh, unlike how some of the other hunters had. Barely able to contain their anticipation at the sight of the ticking clock and Tommy’s collection of wrong answers.

    No, Techno’s eyes refused to leave his own. Ember red carving molded shapes of themselves into petrified blue, and Tommy could finally place where he’d seen that look before.

    It hung off of every street kid in The Pit. Dripped from drugged faces in dingy alleyways at night. He’d seen that look on his very own face, in the harsher of winters or when the lottery grain inevitably ran dry.

    Techno’s eyes read that of raw want.

    And they were currently fixated on Tommy.

    OR:

    An altered AU of the hunger games, in which the all powerful Empire hosts the annual Hunt.

    An event where teen nobles chase down the unfortunate participants to either claim or sadistically kill.

    When Tommy volunteers in place of his best friend, he’s determined to not die off without a fight.

    But what happens when his rebellious attitude accidentally catches the attention of a particularly powerful family.
