[She's only writing this because she can't handle showing herself right now. Plus crying on the scrolls twice in a roll won't do any good for her or her business if she comes across as a cry baby.

The writing is clear, but slightly shaky.]

Kreutzer has died. She was killed by the Pale Pony.

The boutique is closed until further notice.

[There clearly was more, but it seems a couple drops of water had gotten on whatever else she wrote and erased it into a puddle.]

[She doesn't want to, but she feels like she has to.]

She seemed to be trying to do something as a reaper, but whatever she did didn't work and killed her killed her.

[mercuryangel]

[Well, being able to accept that it happened...]

Did she tell you what she could do? What kind of powers she had, I mean?

[shyformerassistant]

Not really. At least, none that I remember at the moment.

[Considering her mental state, it's very easy for stuff to slip her mind.]

[mercuryangel]

[Hmm... as much as she wants to be of help here, it doesn't seem like she's got a reason she knows about to stay involved.

She decides she doesn't need one.]

What do you remember? Tell me about her. It seems like you're closer than just friends, but who were her other friends?

[She just hopes this doesn't make her feel worse long-term.]

[shyformerassistant]

Yes, we were close. She was my marefriend.

She had a rough life before becoming a reaper. She used to do bad things and even made her best friend kill her. She had changed by the time we met and later on get together at the Gala.

I don't know much about her duties before coming here.

[mercuryangel]

I think she might have done what she did for a good reason.

[She won't say the obvious - we can't ask her what it might have been - but she knows that very well.]

She might still come back, you know.

[shyformerassistant]

[There's some delay in a response in that. She wasn't aware of pony coming back to life after dying so this was news to her.]

Really? Does that happen with reapers?

[mercuryangel]

It's happened a few times with people that weren't. Why would it be any different for her?

[shyformerassistant]

I didn't know this. I really hope she does come back.

[mercuryangel]

You will get to see her again, I can feel it.

[...wait that came out wrong.]
