《The Tale of A Fortunate Slave》The Day After And Why Does Everyone Want To Talk About My Hair?

Ash's POV. This time you get a Line! Oh and this is the day after 'A Trip To The Market And A Concerning Event'
I woke not to the sound of an annoying-as-a-Goblin-on-caffeine Alarm. Don't ask what that sounds like, you don't want to know. As I had started waking before that hell-spawn of an alarm in a act to avoid the thing, I still need to figure out how it works but I'm no Gnome. I was about to get up when some thing dragged me back down. I look at the source of the arms that had pulled me. Now I remember the events of yesterday as I see a sleeping Princess next to me.
Yesterday, not long after we got back to the castle. We were in a meeting room as we had to report what happened. The Queen let out a sigh. "I knew something like this would happen. I'm just surprised that it didn't happen sooner." She had a mixture of worry and tiredness on her face. "And on top of all that had happened you, Ash, were the one to finish the job. You and I will have to talk in private later. And you, Mercy, will get a reword for your help in comforting my daughter. And you, Lucy, you did well to hold and not have a complete breakdown." As she spoke we all looked to her as our names were said. But the Princess did have a look of embarrassment then comfort at the next part. "Even if you did breakdown when you saw me. I would have done the same with my mother." I stood up and looked the Queen in the eyes with a fire. I signed in a way of honer. As I signed the title I gestured to Princess in question. I did take a peak at the census as soon as we got back, you can never be too careful. Everyone except the Queen was surprised.
"I suspected that that was the case." Orlia, the Queen for any that for got her name, let out with a sigh. "I just got back and now there is more on my plate then a Dragon could eat." As she said this I returned to the seat that the Queen had provided as she thought this would be a long talk between the four of us.
"Wouldn't it be wise to clean house?" The more experienced maid spoke. "It would get rid of the corruption."
"It isn't that easy." The Queen said looking at the time. "We will have to finish this conversion sometime else."
After that was mostly dealt with we headed to our rooms as it was getting late. Lucy had my arm in her grasp all the way there, I let her do so as she was still afraid. When me and Lucy made it to our rooms she did not let go instead she asked me. "Can I stay with you tonight?" She held me tighter. "I'm still afraid of what might happen."

As one can probably guess with the still sleeping Princess in my bed I 'said' yes, she was the Princess after all. With me being unable to get up I grabbed a book from the stand next to me, it was the third book in the "The Adventures Of Colin The Strong Willed Fox" series, I've gotten pretty invested in the series as a whole.
As I was about to grab the fourth book that damn Alarm rang out and I was about to make the source of that sound disappear when it went quiet as it had woken Lucy. She was still half asleep and was half holding me. "Stop." She told the noise in a tried yet stern voice that I found to be- I stopped that train of thought there as she looked at me still half asleep. "Morning, Ash." At least she recognizes me, even if her words are slurred from tiredness. "Wait, Ash?" Uh oh. She woke fully as she rubbed her eyes. "What are you doing in my room?" She asks inquisitively. I tell her. As she does she is covered in realization and embarrassment and the blankets. "I'm sorry for asking that of you, Ash." She apologizes as I giggle at her childishness, even if we are children. She raises form the depths of the blankets and looks me in the eyes. I sign before she can even open her mouth. I tease.
"Don't tease me like that." She complains. "And when was the last time you had a bath? It stinks in here. No offense." Her nose scrunches up.
I sign as I still haven't had the chance to bathe yet. The past few weeks have been very busy for me.
"What." She says. "How can someone not bathe for that long?"
When I finished she was in shock.
"How the fuck did you deal with that?" She says as I was taken aback when she cursed for the first time when she was around me. "Even the poorer people have bathes at least once a week."
I state when I get my composer back. At this point I was walking around the room, getting ready for a bath, while Lucy sat on the bed. As I had signed 'before you ask no a bed-mate is not a lover' she closed her mouth.
"Oh. So it's worse that I thought." She contemplated. "How many per cell-house?"
I answered before walking to the dresser and getting a set of fall clothes without looking. I signed that last part before walking into the bathroom itself. I'm glad that I got one to my self now.
As I washed my hair it went from the dirty black it was to my natural silver, my ears didn't change though as they were already black. The same happened with my tail but the tip stayed black as it was the same as my ears. Once I was done in the shower I dressed my self in the clothes that I pulled out blindly, I was not that surprised that it is the set that Lucy had said would look good on me as I only had five sets of proper clothes two of which were in the hamper in the corner of the room. After that I went to check my stats.

I'm going to need to look in more detail at that later. Anyway. I walk back into my room from my privet bathroom (that I'm still happy about). When I do I'm surprised to see Lucy has not left and is reading the first book in that series about that fox, while on my bed, though she must have went to her room as she is in a set of day clothes and not the nightgown from earlier. I walk up slowly as she hasn't noticed me yet and once I'm behind her I tickle the shit out of her, scarring her in the process as she makes a cute little 'eep' noise as I touch her.
"Ash! Stop that tickles." I comply and stop tickling her. "Why would you do something like tha-" She cut her self off as she sees my hair and tails real color for the first time. "Was it THAT dirty?!" She yells in surprise. "I thought it WAS black."
I list some of the sub-races/breeds, they can be refereed to as both.
Just as I finish that last part Mercy comes though the door. With a small look of surprise on her face not from me though it's cause Lucy is here. "Oh, hello, Princess." She says. "Ash the- what the fu-!" Censoring herself while in the presence of the Princess she cut herself off. Or maybe it was the surprise. "What happened to you!? Did you find a leprechaun?" She joked as she regained her composer.
I signed.
"All you did was take a bath?" She asks in disbelief. "I didn't know that you were that dirty!"
I stated like it was no big deal, which it wasn't.
"How the fuck did you deal with that?" She asked not caring about censorship. So it was the surprise.
She was about to speak again but Lucy cut her off. "That's exactly what I said!"
After a bit of back and forth between the two I clear my throat to get their attention. I joke.
"Oh yeah!" Mercy says thinking aloud. "I was distracted as to why I came in the first place. Ash the Queen want's to have that privet meeting with you now."
As I get up to leave Lucy speaks. "I hope she isn't to surprised. She's already over worked."
