[This is not the Dean Winchester you first met, Diamonds Droog. This Dean Winchester has recently suffered through a 'bout of particularly painful torture, and appears to be missing his left pinky finger (notice the bandages) and his right eye (the dashing gauze wrapped at a jaunty angle).

He offers a two-fingered salute and smirks. After practicing out on his makeshift rifle range, the lack of another eye hasn't really screwed up his aim, so a go at billiards would be nice.]

All the damn time. You up for a game?

Always.

All the games, all of them, etc., and he'll make no immediate comment on the gauze. Most injuries that don't kill you seem casual, to him.

[This ought to take his mind off of things. He grins.]

Gimme five minutes.

[It actually takes Dean three minutes to tuck his communicator away and locate the pool hall. Upon slipping inside the room, he nods appreciatively at the decor...]

Hey, nice job, man.

[...and walks over to the side of the table, hands braced on the edge. it's pretty high-class compared to what he's used to.]

He shrugs and tosses Dean a cue.

I like things nice.

[He catches the cue deftly (he's been practicing maneuvering with one eye), and slides his injured hand down to the handle.]

No shit.

[Dean snags the chalk square, grinding it onto the end of his cue before chucking it across the table at Diamonds.]

How's the mansion been treatin' ya?

Chalking, chalking, god he loves his cue.

Well enough.

Poking around the empty mirrorside had proven useless, but he'd gotten some good information out of the event anyway.

You?

This with a pointed look at Dean's missing eye, and another at his hand. Now's your chance to explain, Dean.

[Dean snorts. Oh, life's been...just dandy. Leaning up against the table, Dean considers his missing finger for a moment before answering.]

Some sick sonuvabitch drugged me and thought a little torture would be funny.

[The faint smile on his face twists into something more bitter.]

He finishes with his cue, dropping the heavier end to the floor with a sharp rap.

Are you gonna make him pay?

[Dean smiles grimly.]

He's gonna wish he'd never pulled a knife on me in the first place.

[He grins a little wider, straightening up.]

I ain't a hunter for nothin'.

[Dean reaches for the pool triangle, moving all the balls that are touching to the center of the table.]

Hunter?

He steps back from the table, silently cuing Dean to break.

Yep.

[Dean lifts up the triangle and hangs it on a pin on the wall. Moving back to the table and setting up the cue ball, he bends at the waist and sets his cue in line.]

I hunt monsters an' ghosts.

[With a resounding CLACK he breaks the triangle.]

There's all kinds of weird stuff drifting about the Alternian wastelands, and Droog's seen a good chunk of it. But he's intrigued.

Tell me more.
