Puck sighed, returning the other's smile. Tilting his head to the side, Puck stepped forward, still keeping his eyes on the other as he moved. Wrapping his arms around him in a hug, Puck smiled, pausing to whisper in the Clopin's ear. "But of course."
He stayed like that for the time being, not wanting to let the other go just yet. It honestly felt as though he hadn't held the other for a long time, even though they had just been together that morning.

Clopin smiled as the other hugged him, wrapping his arms around Puck in a hug as well. Okay, so his suspicions had been wrong. And he was glad, for once. Now the only issue that remained was the fact that Puck was still female. It didn't bother Clopin all that much, but it seemed to bother Puck a lot more. The gypsy smirked at the fact, but stayed quiet, as he was enjoying just being able to hug Puck once again.

Pulling back a bit, but still keeping his arms around the gypsy, Puck smiled, looking into the other's eyes. True, all their issues hadn't been resolved, but he was at least happy for the time being. The only other issue that seemed to remain, anyway, was the fact that Puck was still a girl.
"Forgive me, but I'm afraid that I still feel a bit...awkward around you. At least while I still look like this," Puck admitted with a small laugh. "I mean, I'm not sure where...or what...I just feel highly out of place!" Puck said with embarrassment, blushing slightly.

"Is there any way to reverse it? Or do we have to get someone with magic to do it for you?" Clopin asked, raising an eyebrow. "I mean, I don't mind having you around as a girl...because it's you, of course, but..." Clopin trailed off, shaking his head with a smile.
"I honestly wouldn't know what to do. Maybe we can ask the unicorn?" he asked.

"That might work. Hmm," Puck bit his lip with a frown, trying to think of an explanation. "I honestly wouldn't know a thing about what sort of spell to use. Bob might know, but..." Puck smiled, shaking his head. "I don't think that I'd be able to live this down."
Puck crossed his arms, holding his chin in his hand in thought. This whole situation sounded very similar to something that Puck had heard of before. When he was...smaller.
"This whole thing is like a very strange fairy tale," Puck sighed. Suddenly, a thought occurred to the Puck, and he looked up at Clopin's with a curious look in his eyes. "Perhaps if we..." Puck trailed off, hoping that the other would understand what he was thinking. It was a one in a million chance of it working, but a kiss from some dashing prince always seemed to work in the storybooks. So maybe, just maybe the same principles would apply here.

"We what? Kiss?" Clopin asked, with a laugh. "This isn't the Frog Prince...last time I checked, you weren't a frog." Clopin said, looking back at Puck. "And I'm the only supposed 'prince'." he said. The gypsy then sat back, and thought for a moment. Then, his eyes lit up, as he finally put two and two together. Before Puck could ask him what exactly he had come up with, Clopin pulled the other closer, by the collar of his shirt. "Fine, we'll test your theory." Clopin whispered, with a smirk, before pulling the other into a deep kiss.

Before Puck could react properly to what Clopin had said, he was taken off guard by the gypsy's "test", and suddenly, his lips became to busy for talking. This felt...different than usual, at least from Puck's perspective. It must have been just the fact that pretty much every part of Puck's body had been changed in the last few hours.
Gradually, Puck could feel a new change taken place, starting from his lips and spreading towards the rest of him. Once again, his skin felt as though it were electrified, stretching and receding to make his correct form at last. As Puck began to realize this, he pulled away sharply, glancing down at his hands and such with a large grin.
"Yes!" He exclaimed, pounding his fist in the air triumphantly. "But, how did it..." Puck shook his head. "How did it actually work?" Last time Puck checked, Clopin wasn't exactly a prince.

"I...I don't know." Clopin said, looking down at his own hands. Nothing had changed, as expected, but....how was he able to reverse it? Clopin frowned a little, before thinking once more. "Well...it can only mean one thing. There's only one prince in here....and it's me. So that means that the only way to reverse the spell was to be kissed by royalty." he said.
"Prince of the gypsies indeed."

Puck eyes widened slightly. "So wait...you're...the Prince of the Gypsies?" Raising an eyebrow, Puck shook his head. "I...don't think that I can be much more surprised than I already am today. Whatever the specifics, I'm just glad it worked." Sighing, Puck moved to sit on the edge of Clopin's bed, still trying to absorb whatever had just happened.
Does nothing stay to fairy tales anymore? Puck thought, remembering what he had said when Bob had first given them their powers. Whatever the answer, Puck was glad that this fairy tale logic was at least sound.

Clopin nodded. "I thought I told you that?" he asked, with a confused expression. Maybe he had forgotten, after all. "But yes, I'm not really considered the King yet...not until I get out of this place they call a school." Clopin said with a laugh. "Education...I honestly don't need it. All you need to know in life is how to read and write. Simple." he said, shaking his head.
(OOC: Why can I see Clopin singing "I Just Can't Wait to be King?")

((ooc: Because Paul Kandel's voice would sound AWESOME singing that! XD))
Puck shook his head as he looked back up at the other. "Perhaps you did, and I've forgotten. Anyway, I'm very thankful for that at the moment," he laughed. "Now I don't have to be stuck in that god-awful form anymore."
Letting out another laugh, Puck paused to fly around the room a bit, each moment being all the more thankful that he was back in his own body. Floating back down a little, he turned to Clopin thoughtfully.
"Just reading and writing? Well, I think that math would be a little important as well, considering all that you must have to do business-wise as king, but whatever you think is best."

(OOC: Yes, yes it would. XD)
Clopin briefly watched the other fly this way and that around the room, with a smirk upon his face. Of course Puck would be happy to be back to his own body. Who wouldn't be? Either way, the gypsy shook his head at Puck's suggestion of mathematics.
"Fine. Reading, writing, and a little bit of that accursed mathematics. The only "business" relations I have are stealing, to be quite honest. We have no other competition for money, at least for now." Clopin said, with a laugh, as he stood up from the bed, and stretched his legs and arms using the nearby desk chair.

Puck rolled his eyes with a smirk. Standing up from the bed as well, Puck moved over to where Clopin was stretching his limbs, and put his arms around the other from behind.
Still smiling, he said, "Well, now that that's all cleared up, and...we're back together....I believe that you promised me something last night." A suggestive look entered Puck's eyes, and he smirked.

Clopin obtained a confused look on his face for a moment as he struggled to switch his left leg with his right on the chair, as Puck's arms were still around his midsection.
"Yes...I did. But could it wait until I finish my stretching here? If I don't stretch, I can't guarantee an exceptional.... performance." Clopin said, turning his head a bit to face Puck with a slight smirk.

Puck raised an eyebrow, grinning as he untangled his arms from the other. "Fine, I suppose you're right. But don't keep me waiting long," he laughed, kissing the other on the cheek quickly before flying backwards to sit on the edge of the bed.
Crossing his legs Indian-style, Puck smirked, watching the other stretch with a funny look in his eye.
