"I don't see any handsome devils, but it's good advice to keep in mind," he replies evenly, stripping his tone of anything so it's flat, but he slides his hat off his head to settle on the table beside Faraday's gun, pushing his hair through his hair a few times before he settles, but what it really takes is another cigar (his fourth) to get his nerves to calm.
At this rate, he's going to be out and need to roll new ones before he even thinks of leaving town. He twitches sharply when Faraday inserts the awful Spanish into his speech, a gut reaction to his mother language being butchered so.
"Maybe you're fine now, si, but now you're slower," he says, and for once isn't saying it just to be cruel. "Not the way you used to be, which means easier to hurt you again." Strange how Vasquez would have been first in line to do that hurting a few weeks ago, but now he would kill anyone who did with a full round of bullets.
He already has, what with McCann's conveniently slain body already in a coffin. "You say that I should have a plan, but you, you're the one who needs to have someone at your back," he says, working himself around to volunteering for that job.
