They were. I admit, there are things I miss about my former nature. There are aspects of human biology I will never grow comfortable with. But I think, overall, I prefer humanity. When another one of those odd weekends rolls around, I'll show them to you. I revert to my homunculus state for those days.
[Which is at this point simply jarring. Even when she knows that twice a year she's going to wake up ice cold and inhuman, it's still an unpleasant surprise when it happens.]
Hmm, it should be close enough to the weekend that the polish won't chip...alright. There's a place near the department store.
[Angel sucked on her lip, deep in thought for a moment. It seemed an intimate thing, showing off this creature Lust used to be. Perhaps not for the woman, but for the siren, it absolutely was.]
If you so choose, then I would be interested in seeing it. If you do, though, I would like to show you the person I used to be too. A mutual exchange is only fair.
[She nodded to the woman, looking down at her disastrous nails once more. Hopefully the staff wouldn't be too judgmental. And that they wouldn't mind her taking notes.]
Everyone who's been here for one of those weekends has seen me in my former state. I'm difficult to miss, I'm even more acrobatic than normal. I like to practice my routines on the rooftops.
[She'd terrified poor Timothy with it, the last time. She's rather glad she's never done any parkouring in front of him - at least as a homunculus he has the assurance that she can't be hurt if she falls.]
[Perhaps she was a bit like Timothy in that respect -- panicking at the slightest chance of one of her loved ones being hurt. Certain as she was that somehow, Lust would be alright no matter what happened, it was still a troubling thought to have.]
Not particularly. My powers stopped working, and that was it. They... did not do much to alter my physiology.

Was there much change, when you came here?
