Summary
Slavery AU, part two of I know why the caged bird sings. Same story, told from Mike's perspective. It's highly recommended that you read what is posted of part one before beginning this one.

8908 had an itch on the sole of his foot but tried to ignore it. Even if his ankle hadn’t been cuffed, he couldn’t have turned far enough in his kneeling position to scratch it with his hands bound so closely together. He shifted, letting his weight move from one leg to the other, feeling the pins and needles of blood flow as he did. Great. Now his nose itched too.
“Eyes forward,” an employee reminded him as they passed, followed by a Domestic in a violet dress.
8908 glanced up briefly before setting his gaze on a water spot on the far wall. Were they going to make him sit through a Choosing or would he be removed before the client arrived? Surely they wouldn’t let such an eyesore remain on the showroom floor.

Why had Noble Synergy hired him? Why had he accepted the offer? The neat six figure salary had certainly played a role in his decision. Were his morals so easily bought? Apparently. Will sighed, fiddling with his suit jacket in agitation. Joyce noticed his nervous fidgeting and discomfort (she always did) and tried to help.
“Just pick a nice assistant. They can help you get settled and get ahead at work and once the lease is up, things will be fine. Go back to normal.”
“Unless you extend the contract. Hell, even buy.” Hopper pointed out, eyes still trained on his phone.
Joyce shot her husband a withering look as Will stared at him, aghast. Hopper glanced up, noticing the tension.
“What? I’m just saying the kid’s gonna be making the money. He could afford to keep one on,” he grumbled, quickly turning his eyes back to the screen of his phone. “I mean, did you see the contract they offered? And that apartment they provided? Not saying he’s gotta keep it, only that he could...”

Summary
"Bilbo never bothers denying that he is a slight, little bit, probably infatuated with Thorin. It’s not something that bothers him. Really. He’s pretty sure that everyone very likely has a little flutter in their chest for the dwarf. He’s something grand and unattainable.
And it’s really much safer if it stays that way."

Summary
Thorin Oakenshield agrees to an alliance of dwarves, men and elves against the enemy approaching Erebor. But he makes some demands and one of them is for Bilbo Baggins to be tried for the theft of the Arkenstone, accordingly to the dwarvish law. Bilbo is taken into Erebor as prisoner and Thorin is going to learn that many things can still be stolen.
