Puck turned sharply upon hearing the gypsy's voice, giving a sudden sheepish smile at the realization that the other had probably thought him to be talking to mere flowers.
"Erm...I don't rightly know. She won't tell me," the fae laughed, gesturing to the girl next to him. "There was apparently some sort of accident in her magic class today, and this girl here got turned into...that."
Turning back to the girl, Puck smirked, raising an eyebrow. "Well, are you going to at least tell us who you are now?"

She almost jumped out of her skin, if she had any at least. She was so happy to see her older brother and it tore her apart that he didn't recognize her until the fae reminded her of the transformation she underwent that morning. Jumping to her feet, or more properly, disintegrating, drifting through the air, and reforming where she wanted to stand, she said to Clopin, "Clopin, it's me, Esmeralda! I had an accident this morning and got turned into a Sprite but it should ware off, eventually, I hope."

Clopin gave the sprite an odd look, before laughing. As he recovered, his smile returned, and he wiped a tear away from his eye. "Oh..oh my, Esme. Excuse my laughter, but knowing you, I always knew that you would get yourself wrapped up into a situation like this someday." Clopin said, before running forward and attempting to hug her in her present form. "I have missed you so much, my dear sister." he said.

Puck blinked, eyes darting between the two gypsies in surprise. So wait...this was Clopin's sister that he'd been talking with? That was...wow. A little surprising, to say the least.
"Ah...so this is Esmeralda," Puck laughed, smiling as Clopin attempted to embrace his sister for the first time in who knows how long. "I've heard a lot about you from this fellow here," Puck added, smirking as he folded his arms across his chest.
Wait..that posed another problem. She most likely knew nothing about he and Clopin's relationship...great. Yet another "outing" session.

Esme gasped as she and Clopin tried to hug each other and he passed right through her, ending up behind her, while they both hugged thin air. Turning to face her brother she said, "Oh, I forgot, I can't maintain a solid form! I'm so sorry! As soon as this wares off you can hug me!"

Clopin passed straight on through Esmeralda, as his face hit the ground. He sat up and rubbed his nose, before grinning to his sister. "That's alright. But what, may I ask, did you do to yourself?" Clopin asked, as he raised a quizzical eyebrow. "It surely cannot be any of our gypsy magic, now can it?"

Smiling she said, "No, no it's not. I lost my balance in magic class and fell into a shelf and knocked some sort of liquid all over me. It turned me into this.", gesturing at herself. Then she laughed for a long time before continuing. "It's supposed to ware off in a few hours, but knowing where this stuff came from, i doubt it."

Puck raised an eyebrow, looking the girl over carefully. He wondered just what could have fallen onto her...he'd never heard of a potion having this sort of effect before...then again, he didn't know much about potions. Just direct magic, mostly.
"Well...maybe we could reverse it right now," Puck said, half musing. Looking to Clopin, he smirked. "Think we could try our magic on it?"

Clopin nodded, before looking to Esmeralda. "You always heard what the old farmer said. Don't count your eggs before they hatch...or something to that degree." Clopin said with a laugh. "But I'm sure that with the magic I've learned here, we could possibly reverse it for you." he said.

"Actually I think the saying goes Don't count your chicks before they hatch. or Don't put all your eggs in one basket., and I'm actually doing the opposite. Instead of believing that the spell will reverse in a few hours I think it will probably take a few days. But you are probably right anyways.", she said with a smile. Then, "Do you really think you can reverse it for me?"

Puck couldn't help but laugh at the girl's correction of her brother. It would certainly be amusing to see how the two got along in the future. Putting his chin in his hand, Puck thought carefully to himself, trying to think of just how they might be able to accomplish this.
"I believe so, my dear. I must admit, I love transformation spells," Puck smirked. "Even though I haven't done many here lately. Aside from that situation with Taylor." At this, the fae began rubbing his hands together until they started to glow, and looked to Clopin with an eager grin.
"Are you ready to try, Clopin?"

"Now just wait a moment! I never actually said that I wanted you to, I just asked if you really could, for certain I mean. There's a bid difference.", she said, putting out her hands in front of herself defensively. The truth was that although she loved her brother a great deal, it had been a very long time since she had last seen him, and when she had his magic skills were... mediocre at best, and she didn't know if they had improved since then. And even if they had she wasn't sure if she wanted him to try.
"Besides, I don't even really know your friend Puck here. I just met him and i don't think that I want to risk anything, least of all myself, on his ability to use magic.", she added in a tone that meant she had put her foot down and wasn't about to move it.

"She's right, Puck." Clopin said, before stepping forward. "Now Esme, I know that it's highly unlikely that you trust our magic, especially mine. We both remember the last time I tried to disappear from those knaves that Frollo calls soldiers. But your dear brother shall tell you a story." Clopin said, with a grin.
"This very same year, near the holiday of Thanksgiving, a unicorn granted Puck and I enhanced magical powers. Now, I know it is truly a hard thing to believe, but if you wish, I can summon him." Clopin said, choosing to leave out the part about gaining immortality.

Taking on a sarcastic tone she said, "A unicorn, really. Wow, that explains it then. You can't handle being away from me for more that a few seconds." Esme paused to give him "the look" she always gave him when she didn't believe him. "Honestly, Clopin, I'm surprised that you would expect me to believe that an enchanted unicorn gave you magical powers. I may be younger than you but I'm now that young." Pausing to think the matter over for a moment she continued, "Ok, Clopin, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. If you can summon the unicorn then I'll believe you."

Clopin smirked, and nodded. "As expected. By now you must think I've gone mad, no?" Clopin asked. Before giving Esmeralda the chance to reply, he put two fingers to his lips and whistled loudly. Out came Bob, with a graceful leap, before landing next to Clopin. "Hey y'all!" Bob said, wagging his tail, much like a dog.
