Shaun didn't like how he was being looked over, or how they were touching him, or their cheery attitude towards the whole thing. He felt a little sick, and, privately, decided that he was never ******** drinking another drop of liquor. He could only pray that... he wouldn't end up in that other room... With the... screaming...
“Good condition, with lots of stuff and a radio to boot! Yeah, he'll fetch a nice price!” they twiddled with his collar and left Shaun to stand there, wary and startled and very unfortunate. Very unfortunate indeed...

Character's name: Red 7, Red Jenny, Lucky 7 -- She answers to them all, really. Character's faction: mall - assistant Character's journal link:here Character's survival stats: JeffView BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER Lucky 7 is an older lady, in her early sixties, with graying red-orange hair, pale skin, and a spattering of freckles. She's dressed like poison ivy, but fully covere, and usually has a bit of a faraway look in her eyes.
Depending on the mood you catch her in, she's either indulgent and fond, or kind of flighty and a bit of a mad jackal.
As she stood there, two people came over and started poking her. Opal thought about running and screaming, but she had a feeling it would do no good. She wasn't the only person having a collar put around their neck.
"What? Why are you doing this?"
The attendants didn't even bother acknowledge her words.

They let him keep it, after all. And wasn't that fun. Of course, it was better to have something more pleasant. Or aesthetically pleasing, but beggers could not be choosers. Ignoring his own collar, he brushed fingers around her bare neck, before sliding the collar back into place.

The two attendants who'd escorted Micah into the room stood on either side of him, looking him over. One of them was an older man, the other a pretty young woman who looked more like she belonged on a stage than wearing the casino uniform. "21, ya think?" the woman said suddenly, as though Micah couldn't hear her.
"Not over thirty, for sure," the man responded. "Limbs and eyes intact, that's good. Looks healthy."
"Are you gonna ********' examine my teeth or something?" Micah demanded, incensed.
They ignored him. "Not an important person," the woman continued blithely. "See what he's got on him, would you?" Only the awareness that these people were armed made Micah hold still as his pockets were rifled through. He clenched his fists and his teeth and stared straight ahead as they checked what he was carrying, discussing the items and what they might be worth. It didn't help much that his stuff was returned to his pockets afterward.
"100," the woman decided after a minute.
"That much?"
Micah seethed silently.
"100," she nodded, and produced what looked like a dog collar from a pocket of her uniform. She did something to it, and the number 100 lit up on the front of it. "Hold still, honey," she said to Micah, and Micah bit the inside of his cheek to keep himself from taking a swing at her as she fastened the collar around his neck.
Once it was on, he stalked away from the pair, his face burning hot with the sheer humiliation of being valued like some kind of animal. Like some kind of meat. They didn't try to stop him. They didn't have to.
