rises from the grave

( Magic? Must be -- Aziraphale isn't used to the idea that mortals can do such things, but his surprise melts away into proud approval. For someone who wants to help, she's certainly more than capable. It endears her to him, even though he's only known her for a short while.

He gestures for the spirit to come closer, just in case, before turning to Mercedes. )

I've seen Otherworlders use magic before, but I'm afraid I'm still not used to it. It's wonderful, really.

hallelujahs is now a verb

It seems as though not every person had magic in their world before coming here. But I was a lot better at it than I was with actual combat, unfortunately!

[ Said with a sheepish laugh, because she... did go to a military academy. Ah, well. The spirit does drift closer, seemingly pleased as Mercedes holds her hands steady to let them feel the warmth of the flame. ]

Unfortunately? ( That's... interesting, and Aziraphale looks at her with a frown. The spirit seems to be warming itself up fine, and that leaves him with time to ask questions. ) I should think that skill at something helpful would be far more valued than any at combat.
