Wolves. Dingos. Hippos. Badgers. Where would Jon Dromon be in this universe without his blaster? A poor bounty hunter, that was for sure, however he was no assassin outright. Dead. Or. Alive. That was his motto. His MO. So he kept his weapons close: blaster and the stuncuffs just in case the bounty is better without being so lifeless.
Then again, sometimes shit just happened. One way or the other, once Jon Dromon took a contract, he got paid for it. He made sure of it. From Hutts to thugs. Jon got his paycheck in the end.
He thought about that, sipped his rum, smoked his cigar, watched Casany Praxor and Zaia Krodas, listened to the former. Yet he saw credits, he saw promise, he saw opportunity even amid his agreement with this Mandalorian.
Beskar. Shitload of profit there. Assassin. Lots of credits the Daggers are offerin’. Two Mandalorians? Priceless…that they’re sitting right beside me…and they don’t even know it.
Jon really had to weigh his options. He could confess his secrets, reveal the call with Perla the Hutt, or keep that tight-lipped, simply suggest that he had been given a lead on the location of Endyr Ratheon.
If they find this assassin then maybe they find him. Maybe we split the credits. Credits that were already being split with a Hutt who didn’t like to split credits as much as the hunter didn’t? Priceless.
He could strategize a way to capture the assassin and both Mandalorians. Maybe the former could be the lure. Set the trap. Spring it. That would turn a catchy credit. Give Dromon more business with more Mandalorians. They loved their conflict as much as a Hutt loved profit.
He could wait for this treasure to be unearthed, if it even existed. Casany hadn’t found it. Had Endyr found it? That would make sense why no one could find him.
Unless my sidekick has. Unless my ‘partner’ really does know where his former employer is and their shared presence in this shitty city isn’t a coincidence.
“It’s been a challenge,” Jon Dromon nonchalantly added to the mention of Endyr Fucking Ratheon. “Tryin’ to find him. We asked the Badger some time ago, before he went missing, kept up our efforts. One infobroker after the other. He already knew about the beskar before Praxor came here, so where else would he end up?”
“Good question.” Casany took another sip. “If not in Gravenell, which is a big city and we haven’t searched everywhere, maybe another settlement on Sevenmoon, maybe another moon in this system, just hopefully not in the grave or in hell.” She sucked some Mandalorian liquor from her lip in that Mandalorian vehemence. “That would deprive me of my vengeance.”
Maybe they were approaching this situation the wrong way.
“Krodas,” Jon asked as he sighed out the tail end of his cigar. “If you were Endyr, if you wore the black and gold beskar'gam with religion in your fist, with the sword and shield signet, and you were looking for beskar as much as revenge against Casany, where would you be?”
