[He's still stunned as the world starts moving around him again, how he has enough senses to be aware of it at all, but he's brought back by Lup pressing herself into his chest and an involuntary oof when she does.

Gods, he can't believe that worked. Everything still feels the most surreal right now, senses overwhelmed with the sensations he can process and mind trying to process what just happened. That has to be permanent, right? Gods, tell him that it's permanent. If he falls to pieces tonight like the most fucked up Cinderella story he's gonna be so pissed.

In the meantime, he finally moves his free hand from his stomach to Lup's head, smoothing her hair down a bit.]

Hey, hey, it's fine... look, check it, all solid.

[He looks back towards Barry, checking he's still with the two of them. Jeez, he looks fucked up too. It wasn't-- they had seen him die before. It's not a big deal. But it's still big to them, and emotions are still running high, so he moves his free hand towards Barry to draw him into this. Taako doesn't want to admit how scary that whole experience had been, but having his family here means he can put it behind him.]

Man, and you chucklefucks thought you were the indestructable ones. But no chance! It's Taako time now.

[He looks down at his now destroyed shirt and heavily bloodied pants and sighs.]

Man, I fuckin' liked this outfit. Fuckin' Null owe me more than a dry cleaning bill.
