taako at the supermarket at 9.45am with an armful of kraft mac n cheese and one (1) cantaloupe: huge sunglasses, 5 inch heels, leather pants, mesh top, elaborate braid, looking like he stepped out of an editorial for ‘Gay Fashion Icons Weekly’
taako at a gala full of celebrities and fancy canapés: messy bun, sneakers, ribbed turtleneck, booty shorts that say ‘eat me’, stuffing expensive crystal glasses into his tote bag
janin (who wrote this comic) & i were re-listening to that episode where taako & kravitz share two bottles of wine at their pottery class, and we remembered this bit of canon trivia about taako and almost died
so if you remember last november- I said I was working on a TAZ project that came to nothing! this was what I was doing! i decided to stop working on it because i think i improved so much in those months I was doing it that the styles just look weird next to each other- plus other amazing artists had already done it! but i credit a lot of my improvement to this project so it felt weird just sitting on my computer. so— here! (oh also i have my editing notes in here- so enjoy that insight lol)
that time when carey thought magnus was hitting on her and she was like “you’re not my……. cup of tea” and mag was like “i know you’re gay” and made her a ring
it ended on episode 69, which is the sex number
lup was looking after her dumbass brother and the first thing she did when she could talk to him was kinkshame him
angus mcdonald, boy detective
the moon base, home to the bureau of balance and also fantasy costco and the chug n squeeze
the form of transport between the planet and the not-really-the-moon moon is cannons
the lack of description of garfield the deals warlock, leading to most fanart of him being garfield the cat
when lup made the umbra staff, which justin knew would become an icon of his character, taako made fun of her for looking like a clown
lup is arguably the coolest character and she’s trans
all the gays
boyland’s 400 sons and 13 daughters and unknown number of wives and husbands
the big enemy is basically vore
team sweet flips, which is 2 lesbians and a robot who is also probably lesbian
abraca-fuck-you
merle has completely forgotten that kravitz was responsible for the loss of his arm and continues to blame magnus
magnus eating the philosopher’s stone
everyone just assumed that the reason tres horny boiz could resist the relics was bc they were dumb as hell
they almost always refuse to take anything seriously, but when they are serious… oh boy
garyl the binicorn
klarg just wants to drink tea with taako
characters such as tom bodett (who is every citizen of rockport), della reese (a powerful angel), and clint mcelroy (the embezzling janitor)
taako wore a skirt and the other boys kept trying to make it a Man Skirt™ but justin was like “no dudes it’s just a skirt”
merle switched gods and clint immediately forgot who his previous god was
“taako went on a date with death” “[you hear a very familiar voice that makes you so happy but you don’t know why] is it kravitz?” “you’re dating the grim reaper??” “i love you, taako” “i saw my boyfriend” “my boyfriend is death”
the way the boys get so invested in the npcs
all of the antagonists are so good (magic brian, jenkins, sloane, kravitz, the purple worm, lydia & edward, john hunger) (actually fuck lydia & edward. jenkins also is kinda shitty. of course the hunger isn’t great exactly. but yeah magic b, sloane, krav, and that bigass worm are all wonderful and gay)
the ipre, aka nasa but with wizards
griffin’s elevator fetish
it’s me, taako. you know, from tv?
taako’s relationship with paloma. his disappointment when he was tryin to talk about baking and she was like “uhhhhhhhhhhhhh scone magic”. him calling her the oldest woman he had ever seen.
the cleric never heals anyone but damn he can make people tell the truth
the whole thing actually
feel free to add on
34. the music 35. how clear it is that, despite their mocking of each other, they love each other 36. the character development and the detail that went into every character 37. when taako casts a spell and griffin goes “oh my god, justin” 38. how furious justin gets when travis & clint don’t do character voices 39. “your dungeon master, your best friend, and your ______” 40. “sturdy. denim. and blue.” 41. kravitz’s accents 42. the trinity of rad magic objects: the umbra staff, the extreme teen bible, and the flaming raging poisoning sword of doom 43. justin immediately hopped aboard the lup appreciation train, as did everyone else 44. when things start out as goofs but then get serious 45. this applies to all mcelroy products: their unique dialect/slang 46. the pocket spa & workshop 47. magnus’s ending except only the part with the dogs 48. the deities: pan, istus, the raven queen, jeffandrew, 49. how open the boyz are to all interpretations of their characters 50. refuge (especially roswell, the nonbinary clay guardian you never knew you needed) 51. the wlw/mlm solidarity between taako and hurley & sloane 52. when they call each other by nicknames (ditto, juice, scraps, etc) i’ll think of more and rb some responses later but i’m very sleepy and it’s almost 1 am so i’m going to bed
hey guys? i love this show
51. The way that Lup was shaped both by Griffin but also Justin.
yall, beauty and the beast AU where Merle finds himself trapped in a creepy castle inhabited by Final John (who, once Merle breaks the curse with his love, turns into regular John)
I know TAZ has some completely epic lines that resonate with people like the “I saw seven birds” speech and “Our capacity for love increases” speech but what’s everyone’s favorite stupid line that for some reason lodged in your head beyond the others I’ll start
Mine is when Taako and Barry are talking in the Beach Episode and Taako says “Barold… Barold…. I rolled an Eleven Barold, you have to tell me.”
“The late Merle Highchurch rolled a five”
Griffin: “Are you using the umbrella like Mary Poppins-style? You don’t need to.” Justin: “Oh, natch. And I don’t need to. For sure. But I deffo am.”
“I can fuck any onion I want!”
“the memory of my grandfather’s name died long before i was born”
“hot diggity shit that is a baller cookie”
“How do you not have a d6 it comes with every game?!” “My daughter…” “Eats them for power????”
“You haven’t seen this ass!”
“what’d you do merle?” “laid down in the road”
“I love you guys. You just set my fucking dog on fire”
“Hey, you calm the fuck down, sir! There’s no yelling in the Fantasy Costco!”
“We’re gonna fight some weeds on floor 20!”
“If you wanted to lure me in there you should’ve stayed handsome my fella.”
“Hey, thug, what’s your name? I’m about to tentacle your dick”
-On like the tenth one, Magnus is reluctantly hopeful; Taako tells Angus he believes this one is different but then very loudly whispers to Magnus how this is the most evil one yet
-Magnus tries to set him up but even that doesn’t work
-Boyfriend goes to eat some of Taako’s food but Taako knocks it out of his hand
-One time Angus is in a triad, but both boyfriends are evil, but not working together, just separately evil
–
Angus asks, “Don’t you trust me?” Taako says yes for some things no for others. Angus says that’s not really trust and Taako puts him to sleep.
