Close to Her heart

I've begun experimenting with Sylvi'a's effects. The glowing eyes I haven't quite decided to do, but it's a straight copy.
The leaf/snowflake emitter is also a pretty clear copy.

Ahhh! But Her pulsing, beating heart...!  That's something I haven't come across yet.
I want the glow of light around Her crystal heart to pulse in a definite heartbeat rhythm. Any ideas how to get a steady double pulse in the light?

               two lights slightly out of sync?

I might have to. But that puts the event in script, rather than on the model
(I can't figure any way on the model to offset the start of a light).

I thought for a bit about a single long pulse of light with a darkness effect dimming it in the middle. I thought I saw a darkness effect, somewhere...

I'm thinking now that I might have to try an animated, semi-transparent texture of an aura appearance.  That way the effect is where I want it, and the color is seasonal, but the timing is also fixed... I can't speed up her heartbeat during combat or romance. Can you change effects keys for certain anims?

Hmmm, anyone know a good sound already in either NwN or CEP that would make a good "lub-dub"?
