Lily watched over Jasmine for the rest of the night. She made sure she was really just drunk, and not something else. The assassin was hanging off Lily’s body, unable to sit still. She’d grab hold of the alchemist’s breasts and giggle to herself, or plant kisses all over her exposed skin. She was acting completely different from the Jasmine that Lily was used to. Even when the two drank in the past, Jasmine was never this clingy or affected by the alcohol as much.

The only thing Lily restricted Jasmine from doing was going for her cock. She didn’t want Jasmine’s state to get worse, so she had to push and fight Jasmine away from her lap. The assassin would pout at her, then try her luck with Claire or Ursa. But the two would just pick her up and place her next to Lily again. This repeated a few times before Jasmine finally passed out.

She eventually cuddled up to Elsie, who was already asleep due to being on watch that night. Her hands explored the older twin’s body for several minutes before her drunken stupor finally took hold. After calming down, Jasmine went into a deep sleep unlike any other she’d had. Nothing was waking her, nor were any of her perception skills active. She got to enjoy a full night’s sleep.

“Any ideas?” Claire asked Lily while the two watched her sleep.

Lily shook her head. “Like I said, she’s just drunk. But I don’t know how she managed to do that by purely ingesting semen.”

Hannah carried a sleeping Toni into the carriage. She placed him right beside Jasmine, adjusting him to latch on to the assassin in his slumber. “It’s quite funny, though. Was wondering what kind of drunk she was.”

“I don’t think alcohol even really affects her,” Lily replied while watching the puddle of lovers sleeping. “She has so many skills that prevent toxins or negative side effects from harming her. Wouldn’t surprise me if alcohol didn’t either.”

“Interesting,” Hannah rubbed her chin. “Ursa is nervous that she’s sick or something. She was doing more pacing than helping set up.”

Claire chuckled to herself. She glanced at the door, “I’ll let her know that Jasmine’s fine before I go to bed.”

“Don’t tell her I said anything,” Hannah joked.

“I won’t,” Claire smiled back at the knight. “Wouldn’t want you two to fight again.”

Lily had been deep in thought while the two were talking. It irked her that she couldn’t figure out what happened to Jasmine today. If it were an ailment, she could just find that out from Jasmine’s status sheet, but it wasn’t. It really was like trying to read how drunk someone was. But without the alcohol.

“Lily?” Claire shook her arm. “You okay?”

Lily blinked and pushed up her glasses. Hannah had moved to lie next to Toni, but both she and Claire were looking at Lily. “Oh, um, yeah. Just trying to think about what caused this change.”

“Why?” Hannah scratched her head. She adjusted to spoon Toni and rested his head on her arm. “Isn’t it better for her? You did want her to relax.”

“I do want that,” Lily nodded. “But if something’s changed, I’d rather figure out why. Like, her change could be related to a multitude of things. The skills Claire gave us, a change in her own class, or even some mutation. What if she’s only the first of us to change?”

Hannah shrugged and snuggled up to Toni. “Yeah, that’s above my pay grade.”

“I didn’t even think about that,” Claire blinked. She gently pulled Lily closer to her after noticing that her thoughts were beginning to spiral. “You can see her stat sheet. Did her skills change?”

Lily shook her head. “Her Oral Fixation is the same. I’d assume that would be the skill causing the change.”

“What else could it be?”

“Her body, or even her mana, could have changed.” Lily exhaled to collect her thoughts. She felt Claire’s arms wrap around her, and it soothed her body. “Maybe your gift was only the first change. There could be more we just haven’t noticed, or not enough time has passed for them to develop.”

“Could be,” Claire whispered in Lily’s ear. She gently rubbed the back of Lily’s hand. “We won’t know until She reaches out to me. And, what do you mean it could be her mana changing?”

“How do I explain this?” Lily muttered to herself. “Mana can be affected by your mental state. If you’re depressed or your mind is fractured, you recover mana differently, or the mana you do recover is… changed. The skills you once wielded could be less powerful or act differently. That also means that a change in mindset or even a change in goals could affect it. Does that make sense?”

“Uhh, a bit,” Claire chuckled. “You think it could be Jasmine’s mental state causing the change?”

“Could be. Or, it could be a mutation from your gift,” Lily nodded. She gripped Claire’s hand as she continued her explanation. “Your Goddess changed our biology. We have male sex organs now, not just the penis and testicles. We even have the internal parts.”

Lily turned in Claire’s grip to face her. She lifted Claire’s shirt up, taking a moment to admire the toned belly. She traced her finger from Claire’s belly button to just under her diaphragm. “Women have their ovaries, where they store their eggs for reproduction. Men have their testes. We’ve more than just confirmed that we have the other key organ, the prostate.”

“The what?” Claire tilted her head.

“I could show you,” Lily giggled as her hands crawled down to Claire’s waistband. “It’s where the extra bit of pleasure from anal sex comes from. Like the ‘G-spot’ in your vagina.”

Claire’s mind blanked. She felt Lily’s hands slowly pulling down her pants and didn’t know if she wanted to stop her. She knew what Lily was referring to, but wanted to play dumb, too. She eventually nodded in understanding.

“Aww,” Lily mumbled to herself. “Wanted to show you.”

“Later,” Claire whispered back. “Keep going. This is important.”

Lily smiled and retracted her hands. “Agreed. So, we have the male sex organs alongside our own organs. Only the Gods know how She fits all that into our bodies, and I pray we never have a chance to find out…”

She shivered at the thought. It would mean one of them had died and their body was being examined. She shook her head and continued.

“Our bodies have changed. Thankfully, the Goddess didn’t just attach a penis to our bodies, since they could have easily rejected the organ and thought it needed to be purged. But that doesn’t mean our bodies won’t adapt.”

Her hands moved down towards Claire’s butt, causing the paladin’s breath to hitch. She pressed down on a bone just above it. “This is your tailbone. Means at one point in the past, humans did have tails. When life was created, the Gods made sure that said life could adapt to the world around it. So they let us grow and evolve. Humans outgrew the need for tails and left behind this bone.”

“Right, Evolution,” Claire nervously giggled. Another one of her academic failures was coming back to bite her.

Lily nodded. ” Whether you believe it was the whim of Bennos or some incredible forethought, life had the ability to adapt. Though we still aren’t sure the origins of magic or the stats sheets we all use…” She sighed and shook her head.” Nevermind, back to Jasmine’s issue. There’s never been people like us. Women with both genitals. What Jasmine is experiencing could be her body adapting to the male reproductive system, or it can be a newly discovered quirk of her skill.”

Claire nodded her head. She was following along as best she could, “So you think Jasmine’s body is evolving to… what? Enjoy our cum beyond just a preference?”

“That… Maybe?” Lily tilted her head for a moment. “I guess that could be an explanation. Her skill is affecting her body in such a way that it releases feelings that simulate being drunk. Almost like a mental high.”

Claire let out a laugh. The whole thing was quite comical to think about. Their stoic assassin would literally get drunk on their cum. “We’ll have to keep an eye on everyone, too. Jasmine was the first one I gave my gift to. I’d think if this affected all of us, the twins would be next.”

“Right,” Lily exhaled and relaxed into Claire’s embrace. She let her hands wander Claire’s body. “Let’s just hope it’s the skill affecting her body. A change in mental state could mean a lot of things. Intense distress, complex feelings like PTSD, Depression, and a whole other assortment of mental issues I can’t diagnose.”

Claire bit her lip and looked at Jasmine. She was so hard to read to begin with, and she could easily be hiding more emotions than just the ones about her former party member. She gripped Lily tighter, hoping and praying that it wasn’t the case.

“Claire, it’s not all bad,” Lily whispered gently into her ear. “Knights and soldiers are most affected by this change in mana, not only because of their experiences, but also from the peace they return to. Some even lose combat skills because they were so focused on raising kids.”

She kissed Claire’s forehead.

“It could be that she’s beginning to find her own peace or a new purpose.”
