While Taako, Magnus and Merle raced through the desert, she watched. When the halfling smashed the core of her car, though, Lup perked up instantly. The staff hadn't even absorbed its power yet and she already felt stronger just looking at it. When it finally did, she started to tremble with the sheer joy of it. She could only contain herself long enough for Takko to just fucking point me at something, Bro, I'm so ready to blow some shit up - and then he did.
She let it all go, every scrap of power she'd stored, and she laughed, because it had been so long and she had forgotten her own power. It felt amazing, and for the first time since being imprisoned in her own staff, Lup danced.
And then she meditated, because it was going to take her a long time to gather that much power again. But it had been SO worth it.
