A desperate John Constantine is something that no one should really see. Salt wards? That's just protection. A security blanket. When he gets desperate then he makes the bad decisions. Dying in a sewer system was terrifying enough for him to let the damn Invunche inside him and take him for a joy ride.
"Just finished up a case in New Orleans." He says easily, simply. "Got called in by--" there's a pause as he purses his lips. He doesn't feel like calling Corrigan a friend right now. "--a colleague in blue. Missing persons case."
All that cockiness in his tone? It's gone. 'The Man' is something that John doesn't want to think about ever again. Evil piece of shit hiding in the back bits of the South, doing what he did? Seeing just the low levels humanity would hit? That bothers him more than the shit between Corrigan and Zed. It's just easier to be angrier at the second one.
"Solved it though." He tries to make himself comfortable on the couch. "Found the girl, reunited her with her mum. Bastard got just a taste of what he deserved."
