Welcome to round two of the Vignette Tournament! This week's prompt is...

Your character receives a gift, favor, or boon. It seems great at first, but he/she soon discovers an unexpected catch.

You decide the details, including the nature of the gift and its dark drawback, whether the catch was put in place intentionally or not, and any other interpretations. Feel free to make the mood of your entries dark and sinister, light-hearted and funny, or anything in between. All of the usual Vignette guidelines stand as normal. Your entries may be canon or non-canon for your characters and can take place at any point in their histories.

The round ends 11:59 PM EST this Friday. Good luck, and have fun!
