[That's the problem with covering everything with a joke, it's easier to ignore the real problem and slip up, because he's not going to get old, and she's stuck as a lich and everything is kind of shit, really.]
You know Barry's gonna figure that shit out, right? He's gonna leave you that way.
[It feels so naive and stupid, but she so desperately wants a happy ending. Her and Barry, building a house somewhere with an extra room for Taako. Make their dream restaurant, or just cooking for friends. Visit everyone now and then.
Enjoy their long lives together.
It's not gonna happen. It's not their destiny.]
Of course he is. Or he's gonna off himself and we'll be spooky assholes.
Just don't start a creepy gameshow dungeon, yeah? I've had enough of that shit to last me a couple centuries.
[He knows Lup and Barry wouldn't do something like that. Unlike Lydia and Edward, their love is more than enough to sustain them without hurting other people.]

[She makes a show of rolling her eyes really heavily - however, when Taako mentions cooking the the Astral Plane, Lup beams.]
Oh shit, that's a great idea. I mean, even if they don't have to eat over there maybe they'll enjoy the finest fucking food on any side of the planes.

[Says Taako, who almost finished an entire bottle of the stuff before Kravitz even showed up.]

[Death is a dork, apparently.]
I can't wait to meet him. [Beat.] ...wow that sounds kinda suicidal. Or teenage drama goth. 'Can't wait to meet death.'
no subject
[When they met, which was a very good moment and in retrospect, one that he wishes he'd savored more as it happened.
But he hadn't known he was going to die. Suspected it, sure, but that's not the same as looking back.]

[Winkwonk.]
no subject
There's been no riding of any kind, thanks.
[He's a respectable elf.
Except not really.]
no subject
Riiiiight.
[She gasps suddenly and slaps her hand against his chest (gently) in excitement.]
Fuck, the boner jokes I'm gonna make to him! It will be amazing.
no subject
[It's only a fair trade. If he has to deal with the fact he's dating a ghost skeleton then he gets to be the one making boner jokers.]
no subject
[Lup laughs so hard that she wheezes, but she puts her hand around his and squeezes a little bit.
Go forth, dear brother, and fuck the skelly man.]
no subject
[Mostly he just regrets his word choice, namely that he didn't put a will be or something along those lines in there.]
At least he's not a nerd.
no subject
[She stretches out a bit and aims to warm her feet on his leg.]
You just said we was one! Death, being nervous about a date. Biggest nerd alert I've ever heard!
[You can't beat her nerd-loving logic, Taako.]
no subject
[That's also why he lets her use him as a foot warmer, even though she's a goddamn icicle.]
He was going on a date with the world's hottest wizard chef, being nervous about that doesn't make him a nerd.
no subject
[Such a good brother. And excuse you, her feet are not icicles!]
I'd be worried too if I was going on a date with the worlds biggest liar. You're only the world's greatest chef. Hot wizard is my deal.
no subject
No shit, bubbale.
[Of course she's the hot one, she didn't give up her beauty in a trap Lucretia sent them into.]
no subject
Don't. You're fucking smashing, Taako. Miles above any human.
no subject
[But it still hurts, not the hit to his vanity, but the fact he doesn't look so similar to Lup.
He wonders if he would've made the sacrifice, had he known what it really meant.]
no subject
[She can't joke this away, but damn if she's not gonna try.]
...besides, I'm gonna be a lich. You keep your skin.
[They were always going to be different, now.]
no subject
You know Barry's gonna figure that shit out, right? He's gonna leave you that way.

no subject
[She had her heart, her love and her family. Enough to last her an eternity.]
no subject
[It's abandoned and shitty, but they can make some fun.]
no subject
[If it's abandoned, can she blow something up?]
no subject
[Bryn took him there, after he remembered Lup. It was a little like a funeral, a way to say goodbye.]
no subject
Good, it's a sib date.
