@Jakuho- It was this post right here:

"A 'magic less' fight? Mirajane could easily split a giant table in two with a simple chop, a testament to her super human strength even back then. How you may ask? Magic is directly tied to a mage's body, as it resides within a container inside their body that determines the limits of their magic. Said magic augments their physical prowess, and is used for magical spells, etc, hence, it's proportional to one's physical strength. The fact that Mirajane and Erza stalemated one another in a physical brawl in the past simply means that their physical super human strength was on par and therefore, their magic."

I don't know if you had told me that already, but thinking about it, it makes sense. I know see it as Mirajane can fight in her normal form, her Take Over just aids her in fighting( or gives her powers).

Yepp yepp haha. I have a lot of white in me though, so I'm light-skinned.

@FTGM- Me as well.
