Hours later, the Conductor Demon is celebrating at the Cornucopia with several distressed and groggy-looking demons. "C'mon, bud! You need some food in you!" He's feeding an imp with a thousand-yard stare. "Facing off against your own personal demons burns a lot of calories! How are you gonna win next time if you're weaker than before?" The imp looks up at him and nods, slowly, shakily taking a bite of the pizza the sinner is holding, tears running down his face as he chews it.
"Thank you all for signing on for a full expedition! It really means a lot when you folks come back for another night on the rails with me!" About half of them nod.
Xan watches with clear amusement, his golden eyes glinting.
*TIME SHATTER*
The Conductor Demon walks over. "What a fine group of adventurers, eh? They're much braver than my last group for sure."

Xan tilts his head, smirking. "I suppose. You could drain a bit from them." He purrs.

"Oh, no dearie! I don't feed off my passengers! I get a different sort of satiety from them. Have you ever found something that you really, really loved to do? Not just physically pleasureful, but joyously gratifying? Most people don't, so when you find something you love like that, you have to latch onto it." He sighs wistfully.
A good thirty minutes later, Xan arrives. He wears a pair of black, open pleasers, a white lace button cropped blouse, a pair of blue skinny jeans, and a simplistic black collar.

"Oh no. I do know that feeling. I enjoy dressing up you see, pushing the boundaries of what people think i should wear and what i want to wear. I push it everyday and it makes me feel powerful. I know that if i dress a certain way, eyes will be on me." He explained and chuckled.
