His head cocked, brows raising momentarily as Vanitas threatened his cloaked companion. After that initial reaction of surprise, he stood there, one arm folded across his chest with an elbow in that hand, his free hand scratching thoughtfully at his beard. He knew just how futile it was to go for Zexion--even Luxord dare not provoke Zexion into any such confrontations.

"A challenge, is it? Then I accept. If you manage to keep a hold on this gentleman, then I'll answer any question you present me with." Lapis lazuli eyes flickered to Zexion with a placid, but keenly aware expression upon his face. Of course, Luxord would act if need be, but he was very well aware that Zexion was more than capable of defending himself in such situations.

"Though, since you're new to the table, I'll take it upon myself to inform you that the key to success lies not always in chance, but it relies on how you play the cards you've been dealt." Just in case, though, should things get out of hand, Luxord would be quick to respond and defend his comrade.
