He'd felt only marginal anger when Bobby had forced him to talk about Sam, but Bobby hadn't known the conversation was going to head that way, and he had the sense to drop it. Maybe they'd come back to it later, when the wound wasn't so fresh and Bobby could find a way to approach it without feeling too emasculated, but it didn't matter. What mattered was that this girl -- human, demon, whatever -- barely knew him and was going to town pushing every button he had, just because she could and with no signs of stopping. In spite of being relatively numb, that pissed him off.
He grit his teeth, his hands curling into fists at his side. "I get that this crap doesn't stop -- that there'll always be monsters in the dark lookin' to make life hell -- but my brother's been in the ground for a week. You can't exactly expect me to be Mister Sunshine and Flowers after that. And you can't expect me to decide I want in on another showstopper anytime soon. I deserve a Goddamn break."
Never mind the fact that she wasn't winning any points for her I'm human case by pulling all of his personal details out of her ass.
