{Need you tonight (Single edit) - INXS}

  Can you guess who has their arms and legs back? Any guesses? That's right, baby! It's me! The recovery for a vampire, even after weeks of starvation, is just outright ridiculous. No wonder DIO was able to survive for one hundred years!

  I never thought I would miss the happiness of having legs to move and dance around so much! I feel so happy that I could cure anybody's depression with my aura! Things are going just as well as I expected after opening up to Adriale. I somehow ended up having my own room in his vast palace!

  What else could I ever ask for? I've still earned a legendary Adamantite adventurer rank, and I have also earned sympathy from the King of a nation! How did that song I like used to go? Oh yeah 'So slide over here and give me a moment. Your moves are so raw, I've got to let you know.'

  How do you like seeing me do so well, you wretched reincarnation goddess? I knew I could do it without you! Alright, alright, settle down, Natsume. I've to start my education today with the supposed manners lady, so I wonder what I should wear now that I have access to tons of fancy dresses I don't know!

  Wait, since when do I get excited to wear dresses? Meh, who cares! The options are nearly endless, but they are all a little too bulky. I am not going to lie. I mean, I know this place is filled with fancy people, but geez, am I supposed to wear seven layers of clothes at all times? Oh, man.

  Well, I guess I better choose something a little more modest since you know I am not a princess, a handmaid, or something that would merit a bulky, elegant dress. Not to undersell myself, but these people are too fancy. The King himself looks straight out of a movie, without a doubt.

  Alright, well, let's see what we've got here. Uhm, there are a bunch more dresses of my liking. Alright, we've hit gold over here. See? This is a dress, not all that crazy stuff, just a normal two-layer dress with cute ornaments. I like it since it goes a little below the knee, a proper length if you ask me.

  Oh boy, since when did I start to look like that? I say to myself as I take a good look at my body before a mirror, finally seeing my complete reflection for the first time since I took over. My facial features were truly stunning, and even though I was still not an adult, my hips were definitely wider than I expected.

  If there were something I did need, though, it would be a haircut since long hair didn't really suit my face. I looked weird with long hair, in my opinion. So, it is a haircut, but what kind of haircut would suit someone like me? I don't like it long, but I don't want to look like a boy either.

  A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

  How about a middle ground? I am slowly accepting my female body, but I just don't want long hair yet, so for now, I will go with a more modern style for such a medieval time period; let's go for a bob haircut! I say as I just start cutting my extremely overgrown hair with a pair of scissors I found in the dresser.

  Uhm, there we go. That is starting to look better. Man, I need some vitamin D or a tan now that I have looked better at my body. I am so damn pale, like milk-white kind of pale. I guess it makes sense I've lost some color since Martigan kept me away from the light for over a month.

  In the end, it took me around an hour to get ready for my "Manners" lesson, which I would apparently need if I were to stay in the palace, but I mean, how difficult could that be? Oh boy, I don't know if I've ever been more wrong in my entire life cause the lady teaching me is ruthless!

  "Sit Straight! A proper lady must always sit straight! Like this! NO NO! WRONG! You keep letting go of the pose! You gotta keep your back in line like this!" AHHHHHH! I scream inside myself once the cranky old lady pushes my back forward a little bit, making me look like one of those perfect models with an ideal sitting pose, but man, it was uncomfortable!

  "Wrong! I told you to close your legs as well! You have to sit straight and also keep your legs crossed! Or do you want people to know you as the panty flasher!?" Geez, lady, good point, but could you not make me sit in the most uncomfortable way possible? I hate this!

  After multiple attempts, I finally managed to sit "Properly" for a minute before having to move a little bit so I didn't get a cramp. "Ugh! You have no grace! A lady must never look like you look right now! What's with that face you're making? Do you think I am annoying?" The old cranky hag asks me as I directly keep eye contact with her before answering.

  "A little bit, yeah." Oh boy, why did I feel so cocky, and since when do old cranky ladies know how to roast!? "Good! I am glad you find me annoying, but that means I am doing a proper job. I swear it by the gods! You will learn how to have grace and act like a proper woman or name isn't Dolores!" Ah shit, I just gave the old hag fuel.

  I know that being in the palace is much better, but at the same time, this whole graceless thing, I just didn't understand what the fuck she meant half of the time. What did she mean by saying I have no grace? Am I not cute, or what!? I guess she means that I act like a child or something, but that's hardly the truth.

  "There you go again! What did I say!? Legs closed together! I can see your underwear like that! Disgraceful!" Ouch! Goddammit! What do you want me to say, old hag!? I used to be a guy before I died, and I always used to sit with my little balls airing out cause squishing them didn't feel great! But I guess she was right; I cannot keep acting like a guy, either.

  Man, I never knew this was the sort of shit women had to go through, I mean, I did notice the difference between Seras and me, but I never thought it was that big of a deal!
