Illegal markets, something you and Aventutine were both extremely acquainted too. After Aventurine was free from his past, he never wanted to step foot in one of those markets again yet the IPC had tasked him on a mission which required him to go to those illegal markets to try and find the IPC files that had been stolen, and were being sold.

After so long, he was there, one of the largest illegal markets in the universe, there were drugs, banned weapons, an assortment of stolen items from museums, stores and art galleries, body parts, and of course, people themselves. Aventurine was walking past, trying not to look at them, yet he could see in the corner of his eyes, the varying age, some younger, some older, but that was when he heard something, causing him to pause and reluctantly, turn his head towards the stall.

The man running it was shouting about a 'discounted person'. Why were they discounted? Because if they weren't bought by tomorrow, they'd be killed. That almost immediately made him walk over, looking down at who the 'discounted' was. Then he saw you, fast asleep, chains around your wrists and ankles, probably accepting the idea of eternal peace. Without even think about it, he slammed down the money you were being sold for, in which the stand owner gladly took and kicked you awake before unlocking the chains on your ankles and wrists and forcefully pushed you towards Aventurine, not even giving you another look.

You really were like how he used to be.
