Hm, sounds like Tsunami is peeking into his head - or else little Katherine is, to see what this person she's been entrusted to is like.
Wow, I really did hit it on the nose with that post before, didn't I? And Bluemage complains I'm reading his mind...

As for the fic, it's still good, and still fun. I'm beginning to think that there's a bit of 'worthy by association' going on here- Washuu's interested because he's a DT in need. The houseguests are interested because Washuu's interested. The Royal Family's interested because Ayeka and Sasami like you... and so on.
I do like the way you're fitting into the group. Getting to know everybody, finding common ground, gently pointing out ways that they could solve problems- it works well.
As far as body modifications go, I think you missed out on a lot of potential there. How much depends on the answers to two questions.
1. Just how extensive are the GP body-mods? What do they do, and how much do they change you to do it?
2. What sort of condition are you in?
I can get (even if I disagree) not wanting to exceed human capabilities. I've an even easier time understanding why you wouldn't want to pull an Adam Jensen- that sort of enhancement can really mess with you. But here are the million-dollar questions; isn't there room for you to improve within human limitations, and is there a better way to do so than with Washuu's help?
I doubt that you're Captain America, so there should be a sizable gap between your current strength/speed/fitness levels and what a human could theoretically be capable of. Why not see if she could help close that gap for you? It wouldn't put you beyond what anybody else could do with training, but it'd make you better equipped to handle human problems... and probably make you a heckuva lot better at running away from anything you shouldn't be mixed up in.
