   Summary

   You are Poppy, resident slave on the Colosseum station, famous for its broadcasts of incredible gladiatorial feats and its yearly tournament, all organized and run by your master, Nero. His Arena promises fame, glory, and anything one might desire to those who survive, and agonizing, violent, and very public execution for those who fail. When a stranger arrives and demands to be allowed to compete, Nero assigns you to work with him, in the hopes that you will be able to keep him under strict control.

   A/N: Poppy is described as able-bodied with dark red/auburn hair, which is long to begin with and later cut short. I have tried to keep all other physical descriptions to a minimum, as usual! Please read the tags for additional warnings, and remember that only you are responsible for the content you consume online.

   A/N 01/05/25: I just changed the title, not any of the content! I wanted all my fics to have cool titles, and 'The Gladiator' was always meant just to be a draft title, but I panicked when I was posting it.
