Shame we can't use `cast`, that's already being used for types. And `conjure` probably only works for object constructors.

And 'summon' is just used for demons.
A keyword exclusively used for network calls, in particular microservices ahaahaha
AFAIK there isn't a wizardly joke programming language yet--perhaps that was considered redundant--but you can use "giving" and "taking" if you're a rock-star programmer. :P

Erlang/Elixir use "cast" method name when sending messages to their GenServer actor processes.
There are two terms.
* call - to send and await a reply * cast - to send and not await a reply
let's use conjure for method interactions and reify as a special case when that method is a constructor. the more this sounds like medieval alchemy the more I can get behind it, and I've already got misbehaving daemons
