Wait, wait. Hold up a minute. You said you're a mage, right?
[She frowned and tapped her lips, squinting. Yeah, that worked. That tracked. That tracked perfectly in fact. She wondered if it applied to his world too.]
So, magic's ... a strange thing. I know four magic users in mine, each different. Reimu and Sanae are kind of similar. They're shrine maidens, and their power is purification and related to the divine. Sanae sort of cheats because she's got god blood in her veins, and Reimu's entirely a priestess. But both of them are completely human.
Marisa's a witch. She's a mage, but she always held back from too much power, and she stayed entirely human. But then there's Patchouli.
[She gestured at him.] Patchouli Knowledge runs the library at a magical mansion near hell. Insanely smart, hella old, terrible health. Head constantly in the clouds. She sorta, in the pursuit of magic, became more Mage and more Magic than she was human, and so she stuck around.
If you want to get technical? She's not really a youkai, not really. But she's also not a normal human like Marisa. She's a magician. A human that's also a magical being. I'm not saying that's what you are, but you might be both human and a bit more than human. I'm almost certain you're still human though.
