[Xigbar's not really had much need for lighting in all this darkness, what with being able to see in the dark and all. When the lights went out, he went hunting. Not that that was much different from any other day, but with the other chaos from the monsters and all the people completely blind in the darkness it was perfect.
Since the lights hadn't come back he'd not seen a reason to stop reveling in the mayhem potential.
While he's keeping himself busy creeping through the halls snuffing any torches or lanterns and crushing battery powered lighting hard working DR residents have put up to better navigate the halls, he's still got an eye out for something to chase. Like say, for example, you.]

[Meanwhile, on a less aggressive note.
Luxord has largely stopped seeing much call for sleep without a sunrise to knock him out each morning.
To say nothing of how hellish the schedule is for those who've the misfortune to be among his pets right now.
The biggest downside is that this has exponentially increased how much blood Luxord needs. Not that this is a particularly huge problem. With such an abundance of time on his hands, there's plenty of time for feeding while still having room on the schedule for socialising and engaging his own little games.
While he doesn't need the light to see, today he's keeping torch on hand and sticking to 'safer' hallways for the greatly reduced the risk of errant fireballs and unintended frenzies ruining his day, or evening, whichever it was.
It also had the benefit of making him slightly less suspicious that those that chose to lurk about in the dark. Useful little things like carrying a torch he didn't really need, or presenting as less than able to defend himself from things in the dark that made him seem a less threatening or maybe even approachable sort when he went looking for someone that wandered off from the herd.
Dinner, conversation, maybe a bit of both.]

[[ooc: two-for-one post since I'm no longer as hideously ill as I was when the event post went up,
Xigbar will probably be violent no matter what but it's up to you how far that goes. Maybe some people may want some 'words' with him given some of his activites with cetain Soras and Rikus but... yeah, good luck with that.
Luxord will flipflop between hunting, mayhem and chitchat based on whether he knows the people thrown at him and if you personally feel sadistic.*cough*you know who you are*cough*]]

Not to say he simply discounts the idea of feeding entirely when he approaches, he never does after all, just that simply taking that meal doesn't seem nearly as entertaining.]
Well, that's terribly interesting.

Ack! Mister Luxord! You scared me!

I suspect that's largely the point of this atmosphere.

What's with the glow?

[Since he needs to moderate the strength, the speed and the movement itself to maintain the whole natural human illusion, coupled with all the other things he needs to maintain fairly constantly while not dealing with other supernatural sorts.]
Sounds dangerous, still interesting, but dangerous.

[To say nothing of how he may or may not react to it. Luxord has no desire to experiment on that matter.]

Though never discount the usefulness of a good flashlight and excellent night vision.

She's lost over a year, her house is gone and just to add insult to injury the DR spit her back out just in time for a seemingly endless power outage. That last part isn't as major of an issue for her as it would be for someone who isn't a walking power outlet, but it's still Annoying Shit She Doesn't Need.
Distracted by her anger at the world in general, she's not on her guard as much as usual as she hunts for her new room by flashlight. (It may not actually have batteries.)]
no subject
But not immediately of course, first he needs her attention. For which he creeps up an entirely socially acceptable level close.]
What seems to be the trouble luv?
no subject
Everything.
no subject
Want to talk about it at all?
no subject
Not really.

[Luxord shrugs.]
Perhaps a distraction or stress relief is more in order.
[As he's talking he's already pulling at her mind, since he can't read it nor add or remove things, he's starting simple, shifting emotional restraint to see what comes up (if anything at all.) If it takes, a random emotion should exaggerate drastically. If it doesn't, well, he has new information to play with.]
this may not be *drastic* but eh at least I finally came up with something
Fear and anger are her most frequent emotions and the easiest to draw on.]
What do you want?
[She was just annoyed before. Now she's alarmed, and she doesn't know why: usually, Luxords don't register as a threat. Watching him warily, she takes a step back. Her free hand curls as though she were gripping her knives, though she doesn't summon them yet.]
drastic is a matter of perspective, you can botch dice roll for anything
Nothing I don't already have in spades luv. I'm just making suggestions.
[Lies, utterly baffling doublespeak or the cobwebs? Who knows? Does it really matter all that much?]

Xigbar is more brutal violence sort who'll get his kicks from the chase and the violence at the end which may range from a simple beatdown to an outright massacre. Xigbar's got a line going for revenge seeking and is probably too batshit to care so it's nbd but a save will need to be arranged for the scenario. I can probably hunt one down for you if you need me to provide one, but I need to know before hand if I'm providing the save or if you're phoning a friend for it.
Also I'd probably need to know what you personally define as low to moderate since that quite likely won't mean the same to me as it might to you.
Like for me, personally, low to moderate damage could include cuts and holes that can be eventually closed with well applied healing magic (but could still be to the point it might take an extra day or two to shake it off entirely,) broken bones, and dislocation. Nothing permanent, but nothing someone will immediately bounce back 100% from.
Where as someone else may define it as just some cuts and bruises easily healed with a quick potion.]
