I think that in their earlier years on the Starblaster, when they’re getting to know each other, Barry and Lup try to out-goth each other.

“One time when I was a kid we found a rat skeleton on the road and I made earrings out of its bones.”

“That’s nothing one time I brought a cat back to life in my parent’s garage.”

Taako thinks they’re both dumb nerds and refuses to participate except to confirm to Barry that yes, Lup did one light a skeleton on fire, sorry Barold she’s more goth than you this time around.

And then they become liches and Taako is like “Okay, you both win. You’ve tied. You’re the most goth people in existence. Please don’t do anything more goth than this, I’m begging you.”

They have a beautiful goth-wedding and everyone cries.

And that pretty much ends the whole thing until Taako goes ahead and marries the Grim Reaper like “HAH! SUCK IT! You BOTH lose! I’m more goth than either of you will ever be! I win, assholes!” and lords it over them for all of time.
