What's up, chucklefucks, it's me, Taako, everybody's favorite wizard here to beg, desperately, for you to entertain me for next eight fucking hours while I mess with this spell.

["This spell" being his transmutation stone that he needs to remake, but it takes eight hours to prepare and honestly, he's going to go crazy.]

I'll even help you out here but giving you a starting point or several, cause I'm just amazing like that.

First off, give ch'boy some movies to watch or music to listen to. Don't bother recommending Beyoncé I'm all over that already. I can't imagine any of you being interesting enough to keep me amused for eight hours so like, this is my back up plan.

The main plan is let's play a fucking game, I was gonna go with truth or dare but it's hard to police that shit on the network so we're doing two truths and a lie instead.

Ready?

1. I've been a professor
2. I turned a dude into a cat for cheating on me and never turned him back
3. One time I fucked up a spell and everything I drank tasted like key lime gogurt for six months

[[ooc: feel free to threadjack on this one if it gets interesting]]

what did you teach?

[ He's got a good guess that it's cooking but who knows. Could be magic, could be anything. ]

gonna call you professor taako now, on special occasions.

[spellslots]

Every occasion is a good fucking occasion to call me professor

I taught like, a shitty and lazy ass version of philosophy

[franciscoramon]

you don't own enough cardigans to go by just 'professor'.
(besides i already knew someone i called that)

already sounds better than the regular version imho
how do you make philosophy lazier? i mean isn't it usually just a bunch of dudes standing around talking about nothing in the most pretentious way possible?

[spellslots]

I'll steal yours

[Rude]

Okay so, get this shit, we had to put together some kinda ✨work✨ for the voidfish and I could notttttt be fucked so I put together a book of aphorisms that I borrowed from our world since, you know, that shit didn't exist in the world we were in.

[franciscoramon]

will you be providing replacements or do you want me to freeze into an icicle in my workshop?

oh lup told me about that
she and barry did some big romantic duet right?

...wait are you saying you just plagiarized it?

[spellslots]

You can pick a couple sweaters from my collection

[aka: his collection of stolen sweaters.]

Mmmmmyes 😏😏😏😏

[He's so proud of himself.]

[franciscoramon]

alright deal

[ Cisco laughs; there is something just so Taako about boasting he is a professor and then immediately admitting that he had gamed the system. It makes much more sense, now. For a moment Cisco had imagined Taako actually sitting still at a desk, working on a degree of some kind. That had just seemed wrong. This, though? This is right. ]

okay, professor taako, hit me with an aphorism, then. you gotta remember a couple of them, right.

[spellslots]

I can do you one better

[Because this conversation got him curious, to see if the portal happened to drag his book through at any point and

GUESS WHAT

Cisco is getting sent a link to the Riverview equivalent of amazon, there's a preview and everything]

[franciscoramon]

[ By way of response, Cisco sends a screenshot of the 'congrats on your purchase' page. Yes, he absolutely bought a copy of it. Worth it. ]

u better give it a badass inscription

[spellslots]

I absolutely will, my dude.

Better yet I'll get famous here so it's actually worth shit.

[franciscoramon]

👌🏾

it's already worth plenty in sentimental value
plus i'm really curious if i'm gonna know any of these from my own world

[spellslots]

Gross.

["Sentimental value". Christ.]

I mean, fuck, if you do my plan for getting famous on Earth is down the fucking drain

[franciscoramon]

😇

[ Cisco enjoys tormenting him a little bit. ]

hey think of it like this
i can tell you which ones to keep and which ones to swap out for something else?

[spellslots]

[He's not dignifying that angel with a response.]

Shit, nice. Let's see how many realities I can make it big in.
