Julian sighed as he leaned against the bars of his cage. He hated it here--obviously. What slave liked being sold? None he'd ever met. As he sat there he took in the horrible smells, the freezing cold drafts, and the itch of filth that he had accumulated over months of being locked in a box. Julian was one of the prize slaves; unused, so he was expensive. It was due to his general defiance that he was still a virgin, and that most people wouldn't buy him. He was a pretty male, only recently brought in as merchandise--fresh meat.
As the other slaves stirred, Julian opened his deep green eyes, peering around to see what all the commotion was. He was mostly naked; only wearing loose shorts that were ratty and torn, probably worn by many before him. His back was scarred from whips, though his chest was immaculate, as was his stomach. He was a mere sixteen years old, nearly hairless, underdeveloped... From his ear hung a small ID tag, which had a barcode on one side and a serial number on the other side.
His deep green eyes turned up toward the man who had just walked in front of him. He didn't move, didn't even flinch; he simply sat, sitting against the bars of his cage, his legs bent at the knees and spread slightly. "'Afternoon." He murmured, adjusting himself to sit up a little straighter. He wasn't afraid of these men who came to see him, but he would never try to please them, either; either he would be bought or he wouldn't, and he wouldn't try for either of them.
