"I meant on the doll front, but true," Errn said. He gathered the sugar, biscuits, and tea out quickly and placed them on his table, before setting out four cups. He then have his guests a gentle smile and served tea into all the cups.

He looked at Shane, "It depends. I've noticed most have yellow eyes, but this is not universal. They can hide among the people very well. The only real way to tell is if they have an adverse reaction to nail based weaponry, and an immunity to other weaponry. If a human starts shapeshifting and the like thpugh, well, I think it's safe to say they are either a doll or marionette."

Eren sat down and sipped his tea. He gave his guests a soft smile.

"And that's the scary part. Every marionette is unique. And although the puppeteer within them is malevolent, the marionette body itself is a person. Someone with hopes and dreams."

Eren paused, "As are dolls. Nuul is bonded to me, but she is a wholly separate person with her own personality. And, I myself am my own person too. We're a team, but we have no supernatural control over one another. I am her conduit through which she can enter the physical world. She is my partner in my search for Mr. White."

Eren looked at first one hunter, then the other.

"Any questions so far?"
