This might've been the fanciest place Sling ever set foot in for his whole life. Might be the only fancy place he set foot in, truth be told, and he stared in awe at the sight of it.
He politely declined the drink with a 'no thank you ma'am but you sure are sweet for offerin' and wandered off like a deer in the headlights.

Blackjack was pretty fun, he figured, and a bit like the game they used to play back home called hogswaller, so he gave it a go. It was a pretty good go.

Maybe it was the lights. All the times he kept thinking ain't never seen lights like them and he felt so dizzy now, sort of sick. He found himself wondering if that was why they always said that stuff about flashing lights and brains and pregnant women before TV and rollercoasters.
Then everything went dark.

This was some Saw-level s**t and he didn't like none of it.
Fortunately, having watched that entire series one Halloween, he knew better than to do all that goddamn idiot mess and ask a whole bunch of questions that just made them want to mess with you more. It didn't stop him from looking real scared, though - he was pretty sure no amount of preparation could save you from that when you were in something like this.

In the South he'd been raised like most Southern fellas, learned himself how to respect women in all sorts of chivalrous ways. Most of the girls up here didn't really like that sort of thing, called him miss gymnast which he didn't understand, but he figured this young lady wouldn't mind being saved.

The lady did seem real grateful, but that room they were bound to go into sure didn't look good to him.
"Hey uh, sorry there sir, didn't catch your name if you already done told it." The man kind of looked like it was obvious he hadn't told it. "Uh, anyway I was just wonderin', what's in that room over yonder?"
"Are you sure you want to know?"
Sling didn't like that kind of voice.
"....naw," he finally settled, looking at his feet. "Reckon I don't."

He never saw the lady again. They took her off and sent him in a different direction without so much as a goodbye.
For all he'd heard about Canadians being polite...
