Marcy pursed her lips at Mia's response. She wanted to both know more, and make sure her guest was happy.
"Stuff," she repeated, quiet and trying to sound thoughtful. "Hm. What kind of clothing do you like to design?"
As she spoke, she also concentrated on lifting that sugar bowl up and placing it a little bit closer to the reaper and her butterfly. Or she tried to. She lifted it, just barely, and she moved it, but a little too much- a little too fast, maybe, and certainly NOT high enough. The dear little sugar bowl seemed like it might skip across the table, but it didn't. It simply seemed to tip over on it's side and dump it's contents out.
Marcy faded.

At her touch, they fluttered a bit, and then vanished in a puff of smoke. They were but temporary, of course.
Mia smiled, lifting the teacup to her lips as she took another sip, doing a bit better to control her expression at the strong tea.
As the last of the butterflies vanished, Psy fluttered back over to Marcy, and Mia set her cup down, looking at the other ghoul.
"Alright, I've told you a bit about myself. Time for you to reciprocate."
Not that... she had really said much, but it only seemed fair.

Marcy nodded, looking back at Mia. Such a nice ghoul, taking interest in her. "Yes, that's what I've been told." She was quiet just for a moment, clearly thinking. "It's funny, for some reason I didn't like being called that at first. The name gave me a bad feeling. I don't know why, though." She shrugged, and lifted her teacup to her lips. "I've met a couple others like me, and they were nice. Quiet, but nice." She took a sip. "Moving things can be a bit difficult, though." More concentration. Many things took concentration, she was noticing.
"Can you tell me more about reapers?" She had found her knowledge of them very lacking.

"Perhaps it is because they're known as troublemakers. I've read that in the human world, such activity was known to be the work of unruly pranksters, trying to make their disturbances seem supernatural."
She took another sip, and lowered the cup.
"I suppose even when given a bad name, not all fall into that category. I haven't met many ghosts, let alone poltergeists, but I'm sure not all are as bad as I make them out to be."
"Perhaps... you should take the same advice for undeads?"
"..."
Instead of answering Psy, Mia tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and turned her attention towards Marcy.
"Reapers fall into two main categories. Those that use weapons, and those that use familiars. I don't quite like saying "use" regarding living beings, but for the sake of explanation, it may be easier to do so.
I'm quite sure you're aware of this, but reapers lack... a fearsome visage. If anything, we are not too different from humans aside from our ability to control and manipulate fear. There may be some deviations, but for the most part, if they lack tails, horns, wings, any of those unnecessary appendages, and walk on two legs, they are most likely humans.
As I've said before, reapers tend to fight through one of two ways. With a weapon, or with a familiar. Some categories of weapon-wielding reapers would be the traditional grim reaper, mages, warlocks, necromancers... basically those that rely on spells that rely on spells. Valkyries are an exception to the 'no extra appendages' exception, and usually attack through weapons also, and witches... can fall into the category of weapon or familiar usage, though I consider their familiars more as companions.
And for familiars... I suppose the most common would be shamans, as they summon their totem animals. And perhaps some mages. To be honest, I don't know the categories all that well for reapers that rely on familiars, but I know their numbers are slowly growing. It's about time we outshine those grim reapers."
She said this with a bit of contempt, as if miffed that they were getting all the glory.
