Xander walked into the bar, his eyepatch made him fit in more, but his humanness made him stick out like a egg in a bowl of peas. He was in a demon bar hoping to find someone who he could beat, OK bribe info out of. He walked up to the barman and ordered a beer. The barman silently nodded his heads and slithered off to get Xander's drink. Xander looked around, turning his whole body as his lack of peripheral vision on one side of his head made it a little more difficult to do so.
He looked around the crowded bar and tried to remember what his informant would look like, all he had been told was tall dark and blue. Now tall and dark were two things you could say about most demons but blue was something that stood out on anyone. He spotted his target sitting in a corner booth, sipping what Xander hoped was Red wine, really thick and gluggy red wine. He grabbed his beer which the strange two-headed-no-legged bartender had placed on the counter. He handed over his money and walked over to the table.
"Hey, mind if I join you" he said, then noticed that this blue-toned guy had no mouth "OK, I'm gonna take your species specific silence as a yes" he said, sitting across from the blue demon. 'OK, this is gonna be a tough gig' Xander thought, then he heard a voice, an oddly feminine voice inside his mind 'Tell me about it, try ordering takeout in a drive through' the voice said. Xander looked around for the source of the voice, before turning to face the demon "Did you hear a voice just then?" he said to the demon, the demon made no noise 'Great, a mute and deaf' he thought. 'You know names can hurt' said the voice again, then the penny dropped.
'Can you... can you only communicate through thought?' Xander...well thought 'Yeah, not exactly the best form I know but still, it's better than flapping my non-existent tongue' this was followed by the most bizarre laugh Xander had ever heard. 'OK, right. Well then I guess you will just have to think me the location of this new nest of Vamps then' 'Uh let me think about that for a... no not a chance' Well if Xander wasn't going to get his info the nice way he'd have to do it the hard way.
So for the next 20 minutes Xander thought the song "Hit Me Baby One More Time" Over and over and over again, it was obviously torturous for the demon as he could hear the demons thought-shrieks 'OK all right I'll tell you just please stop' he heard the demon think. So Xander just sat there non-chalantly sipping his beer as the demon poured his brain out. Xander learned a lot that night, the location of the vamps, the fact that demon beer tastes oddly similar to vomit and that when it came to torturing demons, sometimes all you needed was a really awful pop-song
(I read the rules: Aftermath)
