[ For all his talk since arriving here, once the lights go out it's probably easy to identify his loud yell --especially for whichever horse he'd last hitched a ride on as he falls.
By the time the lights are back, albeit dim, he is nowhere to be found. At least nearby. Being small and shadowlike himself, he managed to get pretty far by keeping to the dark spaces.
He even resorts to running on all fours if anyone happens to catch sight of him scurrying away from some ghoul or another. Only instead of yelling, he sounds more like he's taunting them. ]

[ Eventually, things catch up to him. In the shadow above Luci's eye, multiple eyes roll open, some staring down while others look to the bystander. A row of white teeth spread into a smile that Luci has yet to notice. ]

[ Some time later, he's over this whole thing. His face hurts, and he can't move his arms and hands properly from the pain shooting through them. ]
Augh! Ow.
[ But he can't stop here. With an annoyed sigh, he sucks it up to keep searching for Mae. Forced back to walking on his hind legs, slowed, he doesn't bother sticking to the shadows anymore.
His sharp, annoyed whispers of--Mae? and grumbling-- ]
I should be the one creeping everyone out.
[ --might attract too much attention, but whatever, he's over this place. Ghouls are trapped losers. Just... somewhat scary ones. ]
