It's not about the doubles thing, it's like... I had a pocket spa with me, before here, and it just didn't show up. Whatever you did to the umbra staff must have some kinda pocket dimension, cause otherwise Kravtiz would've picked it straight away, as something undead.
[And Kravtiz suspected that something was off, but he looked at the umbra staff and passed over it. If Lup was just straight up possessing it, Taako thinks that would've gone differently.
[To hunt undead beings messing with the natural order; in retrospect it's surprising that Kravtiz didn't sense something off about the umbra staff during their little scuffle in Lucas' lab, but he was pretty distracted at the time.]
If we break it open now and another you comes out, I dunno what'll happen back home. It's been a decade, bubbale, another couple months won't hurt.
[It is weird, though, but he can't risk losing Lup for good, if this place messes with it all.]
Uh, Lucretia is doing her bubble thing, she thinks it's gonna work but... it's not, it's too late, and even if it does it'll destroy that world. Magnus and Merle are gonna see if Fisher will stop hiding the information about the Hunger, cause right now everyone's fighting shit they can't see. Davenport's gonna try to find the ship. You, me and Barry are going to Phandalin, one of the towns that got turned to black glass by the gauntlet, cause you've got a plan.
[He thinks it might have something to do with what Lucas said, about crystals, but he can't be sure.]
Well, he better lay off his job with me and Barry.
[Lup rolls her eyes a bit, but there's a hint of worry there. Hopefully this undead-hunter guy wouldn't go after them? They weren't like... raising undead armies or anything.
Taako discussing the umbrella makes her frown slightly, though.]
...and I guess. For now.
[She shrugs a little, reaching for her wine glass again as she listens to Taako talk about what the memories had told him about his future. Their future, honestly.]
Of course I have a plan. [There's another eye-roll.] Sounds like there's hope, though...
We'll work something out, he let us go and Noelle, she's undead. So...
[He shrugs, not too worried, if only because worrying about whether Kravtiz might want to drag Lup and Barry to the astral plane seems so minuscule, compared to the end of the world. They need to solve that problem, first.]
Of course there's hope, we're gonna solve this shit and kick John's ass.
[A month ago, this would've been a different story, but having Lup back changes everything.]
[Or at least he will be, once he remembers everything he lost.
It's strange to think about; even if Magnus has changed since the Starblaster, it's not... regression, he's grown and gotten more careful, more adult, more sensible.
Taako and Merle just got old and shitty. They'll both be better, for remembering.]
Some things are funny in retrospect; the way Merle reached out for his and Magnus's hands, as the purple worm came rushing towards them seemed a little out of place, at the time. It makes more sense now.]
I can't wait for us to beat the Hunger so I can take a fucking nap. For a week.

The world felt right again. The fact that she was in a damn umbrella aside, of course.]
I always am. That's just a universal constant.
[Still, the though of her being inside that umbra staff...]
...are you sure, Taako? I mean, I've seen people on the network that seem to be the same people, but... different at the same time?
[Those Marvels and DCs, man.]

So - pocket dimension.]

[She rolls her eyes a bit. This shit was pretty wild.]
...but yeah, you might be right. I don't want to break it but at the same time I do, because imagining myself in there... fuck, Taako. It's weird.
[Lup sighs a little and then looks back at her brother.]
What else happened?

extra happy Kravitz
Merle will want the first opportunity to put a foot in that bastard's ass, I'm sure.
[Hope was a good thing, though. Lup could see a future now, compared to the grim news that she was dead and forgotten. They could do this.
She has a plan.]
#blessed

True. Man, I miss him and his shitty advice. Guess it's dad advice now, eh?
[Merle with kids. Magnus with a wife. Everything was just so different. Some things in a good way, some not.]
I can't wait for us to beat the Hunger and just... get to know everyone again.
how kravtiz is saved in taako's phone tbh
[Except it's not, sometimes.
Some things are funny in retrospect; the way Merle reached out for his and Magnus's hands, as the purple worm came rushing towards them seemed a little out of place, at the time. It makes more sense now.]

I would expect nothing less tbh
Fuck, yes. Screw meditative trance, we're all gonna make a nest and nap for a week.
