Day 1 of 7
Schatzi Rutherford wasn't generally one for studying. That was always xyr former Master's thing. And yet, these three books seemed valuable somehow, as if the information contained within might be capable of greater things than simple learning. The first was one with regards to gymnastics. Tips and tricks to become more flexible could always be used, the shapeshifter considered with a mental snicker. Perhaps useful in battle, but absolutely desirable in bed. The preface contained simple instructions, such as a regular routine of stretching to make the body more accustomed to the strain later techniques would inflict. Without proper limbering, they would cause irreparable tearing to the muscles. Well, not irreparable to Schatzi, but certainly quite painful.
Having assumed xyr typical androgynous female form, she stood from the bench she was taking her studies at, and began to emulate the instructions. Though she was in a public venue wearing nothing more than the three belts which crossed over her crotch, no passers by would know this, as she was cloaked in an illusionary attire which required no effort to maintain or manipulate. Practically this was so that she had nothing to encumber her movements, but the main reason she did this was for her own amusement.
