Summary
Suddenly, like a jolt of electricity, a crack of magic filled the room. The hair on your arm stood up straight, and your blanket clung to your body with static. You blinked to see two white pinpricks staring back at you, the only light in the room. You hadn't expected him so soon.
"heya." His voice was quiet and raspy, like he hadn't had water in months. You sat up straighter, rubbing the non-existent sleep from your eyes.
"Hey," you murmured, surprised at how calm you sounded. Weren't you just worried about the tour? But the sound of your rushing thoughts had finally quieted, replaced by his soft voice. "Couldn't sleep?"
"nah," he replied, and you could hear the rueful smile behind his words. "you got room for one more?"
"'Course I do."

Summary
It's six years after the Emergence, and while most of the monsters decided to stay close to the mountain on the west coast, slowly but surely a good few made it over to the opposite coast and settled down in Washington DC. Besides the King and Queen and their human child - relocated to the political center of the US for obvious reasons, you mostly see dogs, bunnies, and cat monsters integrating themselves among your coworkers and neighbors.

You have a fulfilling job as a PR and Marketing Expert, a handful of close friends, and a stable and predictable routine.
When you randomly meet a brand new type of monster in town while late night shopping, you can't help but be frightened of him. After all- he's literally a living skeleton! Embarrassing, but at least you'll never have to see him again... right?

Summary
"Um..." you looked away for a moment, unsure of how to respond to his question. You definitely did have an idea in mind for the type of design you wanted to get, but upon knowing that he would be the one doing the handiwork, the words spilled out like a guilty admission.
"I kind of wanted, er... b-bones."
His eyes widen for a moment and golden pupils flash brighter. Then, the corners of his mouth tuck upwards at the corners in a bemused expression. "Well in that case, I'm your skeleton, doll."

Summary
“As always, humans first.”
The crowd was silent, clearly unenthusiastic. You tried not to think about your odds—it never did you any good. What were six slips of paper as opposed to hundreds?
With a shaky breath, you quelled the hammering in your chest. It will be okay. You do this every year, right? Every year, you come to the square, watch two members of your community be sentenced to certain death, then go home and silently contemplate the conditions of your world. That’s how it went every year, and you were certain that is how it would go this year.
So when the cold metallic voice announced your name over the loudspeaker, you could feel your heart stop.
Ice shot down your veins and a ringing filled your ear. You thought you could hear your mother scream, but she sounded so far away, you could barely register it. Was it really… it was you?
Another announcement of your name, followed by a sing-song, “come up here, darling!” confirmed yes, you. You were the human tribute of District 12 in the seventy-fourth annual Games.
