Summary:

Luxord is an undead creature, soulless, a demon hunter capable of going toe to toe with the biggest and baddest in New Orleans. He’s also paying Doctor Facilier a gemstone an hour to take him to the best restaurants in the French Quarter while he gossips about his annoying co-workers, and trains Facilier in magic – real magic, not sleight of hand – in preparation for recruitment into Luxord’s Organization. It’s Facilier’s favorite job.

But the keyblade has chosen a wielder, and now Luxord must balance his duties observing Sora and his desire to bask in Facilier’s presence. The days are counting down to when Facilier realizes what helping the Organization really entails…

Or, Facilier gets a slightly more literal kind of heart to heart with Luxord when he communes with his Heartless.
