first spell [video]
[The camera opens on two people, sitting shoulder to shoulder and addressing the camera head-on. Or, well... one elf and a skeleton. Taako’s face is wide in a grin, seemingly intent on emoting well enough for the two of them, and they simultaneously move to flip some hair from their faces- or well, Lup would, if she had any. The motion is still recognizable enough as they address the network.]
Helloooo, Hadriel!
[For those who remember Stepford, it might be very reminiscent of their tv show, Lup’s voice coming through loud and clear to make herself a little more recognizable.]
You’re on with the twins, and today, we have a suuuuper important thing we need you to settle.
Bee-tee-dubs, we wouldn’t even need to bother with this if my dear brother could get over himself.
[Taako gives her a look, before re-addressing the camera.] Anyway, so there’s like, transmutation magic, which is awesome and rad, and then there’s evocation, which just like, does elemental stuff or whatever, and is super lame. So if you were gonna pick one--
Yeah, no. [And Lup raises a hand to prove her point, summoning fire instantly to her skeletal palm.] Deffo cooler than anything that comes out of his specialization. Trust me, fam.
[Without even a response, a translucent, spectral hand appears behind Taako, and moving in tandem with his hand, floats into the frame and smacks Lup upside the head before disappearing.]
I can literally turn into anything I want, whenever I want. I can fly, my dude. I could be a shark.
Holy shit, Taako. Give up the shark thing. No one cares about sharks! I’m not trying to crush your game or anything, but pick a better animal.
It’s a fucking shark! What is there not to-- no, you know what, stand back, this is gonna be amazing. [He is, in fact, backing up to give himself some space with the intent to actually do it, tossing his pointy wizard hat to the side in preparation.]
And there he goes again. [Lup could not possibly sound less excited if she tried.]
Check. It. Out. [Taako winks towards the camera, hands on his hips, and then extends his arms, starting to emanate a strange sort of glow. But just before their audience can catch sight of what supremely awesome magic Taako is about to throw down, the camera shifts, pulled to a close up on Lup’s skeletal face. She tilts her head, as if smiling, effectively blocking Taako’s transformation from being seen.]
Y'know, I don’t think I’ve ever looked so good.
[Behind her, a loud and rather angry roar can be heard, that still kind of sounds a little like Taako. The voice that follows is much rougher than his normal tone, because it’s hard to make animal vocal chords try and speak, okay.]
LUP WHAT THE FUCK--
[It’s accompanied by what sounds like some thrashing, and then absolutely the sound of something in their room shattering to the floor. Lup somehow manages to ignore the chaos behind her completely, throwing up a skeletal peace sign before the connection cuts.]
[ooc: Taako is blue, Lup is red, both of them are purple! Specify if you want one or the other because the default is both with a three-way thread!]

Yeah, I heard, Malk. Go live your fucking dream and fly around the cave for awhile. Just try not to get shot down or whatever. [Considering a nice amount of the population have guns now, it isn't entirely implausible that someone would see a bird and want to go after that fresh source of meat.
As for the rest, Lup's content to just grin to herself and let Taako take the reins. As stated, she's already done her own conning on Malkus, it's about time she gave her brother a shot at it too.]
no subject
Tell you what. I'm good for a deal. You get me some ingredients I'm lookin' for when I want 'em, you can run around as whatever you want for an hour after. Sound good?
[He'll trade a spell slot to not spend an hour picking spices in the garden, always.]
no subject
[ Malkus nodded, chirping out a brief "Deal" in confirmation. ]
Finally, this city produces something I can do! All of these other folk, keeping their tricks and whatnot to themselves. They'll see what an Eagle-Malkus can do when he drops bones and goats from above.
I'm your man for ingredient running, good sire!
no subject
It takes a lot of work to cast those kind of spells, so I'd say you got the better arrangement on this one, my dude. [because even if she lost this round, Lup is always willing to back her brother up with a scheme.]
no subject
Oh yeah, my man. You're getting a real deal from a specialist with years of experience so uh, I'm gonna be real picky with what you bring back to me. I need top-notch stuff, ya dig?
[Will Taako ever actually cast this for Malkus or will he just keep finding reasons not to?? STAY TUNED.]
