Spell totem with 2 linked spells

If I link a spell totem gem with 2 spell gems, what does the totem do, ...
a) cast both spells at once?
b) cast the spells alternately?
c) cast a randomly selected spell?
d) explode!?!

The wiki text isn't clear on this IMHO, and I couldn't find anything on the forum ... but maybe it's just me (again) ...

thanks
Spell totem is a support gem. You don't cast a spell totem as much as casting a spell through a totem. So if you have ice spear and fireball both linked to the same totem, one skill will be a fireball totem and a different skill will be an ice spear totem.

Spell Totem is a support gem, and acts like any other support gem in this case. You aren't casting a separate totem spell.

Let's say you link Ice Spear, Fireball and Spell Totem. You can now cast Ice Spear, which will make a totem that fires Ice Spears, or Fireball, which makes a totem that shoots Fireballs. They're still totally separate spells.

I hope that's clear.

Inb4 such thread:
1) You won't be able to deal damage by yourself (including auto attack)
2) Totems (you'll get 2 of them), traps, mines and minions can still inflict damage
