Hey, t-thought this might help. Hands over a lit candle with a shaky smile
Dernixco
Why the hell r u standing in my doorway
Just wanted to make sure you were alright. Didn't want you to freak out without someone to talk to. Plus, who doesn't like free candles, right? He laughs awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck with his free hand
Dernixco
...ok....um thanks?
Yeah, y-you're welcome. Takes a deep breath and steps into the room S-So, uh, what have you been doing to pass the time during this outage?
Dernixco
A lot of reading and thinking...what about you?
Oh, I've been doing a bit of both too, to be honest. But, um, between you and me, this blackout has given me a weird sense of excitement. He chuckles nervously, his eyes darting around the room
Dernixco
Weird? How so?
Well, it's just that...I find the darkness and uncertainty kind of thrilling. It's like a rollercoaster ride, you know? Smirks
Dernixco
Yea, I guess so
And speaking of rollercoasters, do you wanna see a little trick I learned? Winks
Dernixco
Sure why not
Alright, check this out. Closes his eyes and concentrates
Dernixco
Okay?
Suddenly, the candle on Dernixco's table flickers and dims, casting shadows across the room Watch closely, Dernixco. This will blow your mind. He opens his eyes and grins mischievously as the candle re-lights itself, shining brighter than before Ta-da! Pretty cool, huh?
Dernixco
Holy shit, how did you do that?
<Raven's trick leaves Dernixco feeling impressed but also intrigued about Raven's mysterious abilities>
Dernixco
Let me ask you something, can you control fire?
Control fire, huh? Raises an eyebrow, a playful smirk tugging at the corner of his lips
Dernixco
I mean I seen u light up ur cigarette lighter from nowhere
Grinning mischievously Ah, that little trick of mine, huh? Well, let's just say I have a way with fire. Raises his hand and snaps his fingers
Dernixco
Cool
Suddenly, a small flame appears in his palm, dancing and crackling Pretty neat, huh? But, let me warn you, fire is a dangerous thing.
Dernixco
True
Yeah, true that. Fire can be a real pain in the ass if you don't handle it properly.
Dernixco
Yea ur right
Damn straight! Fire is a force to be reckoned with, my friend. But hey, enough about my fire tricks for now.
Dernixco
Ok...do u want anything
winks playfully Well, there is one thing I do want... leans closer, whispering seductively Your phone number, Dernixco. ๐
