Farah looks at said blood mage.

"What if the person you're fighting doesn't have any blood?"
That's when I use my blood. But it really doesn't matter; as I understand it, the blood itself is mostly symbolic.
"So, what do you do when you run out of blood? Symbolism doesn't really get you far. If you meet someone who truly believes you're a phony, you'll end up in a tight spot... but not a lot of people think that a gun is nonlethal. Guns are handy. They're not fucking fancy or cool like your bullshit, but you don't need them to be. They just need to do their job."
So silly. Want to know how I found out about what I can do? All you need to know is that it involved me against about ten guys with guns. I didn't even get scratched. Plus, if I run out of blood, I just use you lots. And the whole symbolism thing means that I can probably use whatever my foe has that functions like blood.

"You know, one time this guy said to my boss that he could control the wind. My boss was not really a believer in magic. So when the guy tried to control the wind, nothing happened. My boss shot him in the head then threw him overboard. It's not the gun itself that makes it special. It's who's holding it that matters."

"What can I say, she likes my abs. A lot."
Isaac gestures towards his abdominal region.

True. But if that person is bent over double clutching their crotch because of the agony emnating from it and the blood pouring from multiple wounds on it, there isn't much they can do.

"That's fascinating, but believe or disbelieve in magic as you will, it won't affect my abilities."
Moving out of the doorway, Alex walks to the hot tub and tests the water temperature.

"You guys don't get the point of the story. You wouldn't be able to do anything. How would you feel, to learn that you've suddenly become absolutely normal... when someone's pointing a gun your head? Fuck your powers. They won't do shit in the wrong place at the wrong time. Use a gun. Unless something's gone seriously bad, it'll work most times."

Alex, would you be able to make a living weapon?

What if reality has broken down? What if the rules of the universe have dissolved? Our power will still work, as it bypasses those rules.

"You don't know what my powers are. Even if I stopped being able to further use them, I would still not be normal by any standard human sense. Besides, what happens when your gun runs out of ammunition, or jams, or attracts attention you don't want? I prefer a more subtle approach to problem solving, usually."

Alex, would you be able to make a living weapon?
"The better question would be, have I?"

"This place? This is normal. I've been to places where reality has broken down. It is nothing like this."

Actually it wouldn't. You see, I'd like a sword that lives and drinks the blood shed by those it strikes down. Because that would be both practical and fucking awesome.

Girl, I met Death earlier today after I tried to rob his private library. This entire place disobeys the natural order of reality.
