[There's a brief moment of satisfaction as he realizes he's made her angry enough to cast something at him, until the spell actually hits him and then he's not thinking about a whole lot at all. It hurts, Lucretia is far more powerful than him and he doesn't think she held back on that one, judging by the way the bright light feels as though it's burning him up.
And then the light clears, except for how it doesn't.]
Oh, get fucked!
[He's blind, a terrifying thing, but he knows this is part of the spell, knows it won't last, and he doubts Lucretia is going to move too far away. Now he can break out the big guns; he was casting lower level spells while he tried to get her angry, wanting the satisfaction of the fight itself, not just a win, and now he's got what he wants.
Taako casts chain lightning, pointing the umbra staff where he last saw Lucretia, before she fucking blinded him.]

Hit a little too close to the mark, did I?
