Ari asked Gail Carriger:

Miss Carriger, we have a question about how the Soulless universe works: When under the influence of a preternatural (dead or otherwise) do supernaturals regain the artistic talents they lost when they were changed? For example, can Conal sing when Alexia is holding his hand? Thank you!

Gail Carriger Oh my goodness, what a good question. You know I never thought about it. Honestly? The answer is, yes if I need it for a plot point or for humor. It'd be pretty hilarious to have him humming off tune and then she touches his hand and suddenly he's pitch perfect...

And with Rue it'd be even more effective. I mean she could make Channing mortal for an evening and he could produce a great sculpture.
