"Betrothed"? Oh dear. It looks like Cessie has rather gravely misunderstood the current state of the relationship between Dorota and Crissy. The alchemist blushes slightly, but decides not to correct the mage right now... there's Science to be done.
"I see. A loan could work pretty well, if you're willing to do it. We could return him to you with far greater mental faculties, possibly. I'd probably need to know the details about how he was animated, though."

Crissy, for her part, turns bright red. And even sways a little, nearly fainting dead away!
She manages to cling to Dorota's arm though and recovers after a moment.
As SCIENCE! starts going over her head at around Mach 3 and 80,000 feet.
Syela stifles a giggle at Cessie's comment and Dorota and Crissy's reaction to it. "Do you think he'd react badly to being taken away from here, though?" Syela asks, trying to not make it too obvious she was so close to laughing.
The sorceress gives the two an odd look, was it something she said? Oh well!
"The exact details are pretty long-winded, could write a book of the methods I use. In fact, I think I might just give you one!" She exclaims before sweeping around and bounces off to grab a very thick book off the table which she then returns to the alchemist with. It's titled "wondrous works - by Villen Southgate" and if she just looks at the first page she will see it's a guide to the creation of gargoyles. "It's just one of the books I use of course. While Southgate is rather conclusive it's rather long-winded. It's better if you just read chapter one, two, three, six, eight, nine, twelve and thirteen before switching to Westmarks "Eldritch golems" and Östham's "study of constructs" for the full picture." She explains before hearing that... other girls comment. What was her name again?
"Erm.. no, no, he'll follow my commands. He wouldn't get too upset with it."
Dorota accepts the book with visible enthusiasm. She'll likely spend the next few evenings reading through it.
"Perfect. I think Garn might be as eloquent as Sizewell when we give him back to you," she says confidently.

Poor Syela, not important enough to have her name remembered. "Okay then." She takes Cessie's word for it. It's not like she has extensive knowledge of constructs after all.
"That would be great! Especially as I'm currently preoccupied with other projects as you might have noticed. You can find the other two books in my library, just look under W and Ö, it shouldn't be too hard to find." The sorceress explains before she is about to turn back to her circle, but appears to suddenly remember something. "Oh! Sorry about not greeting you and such, I really didn't want you to see me in this state, it's a bit embarrassing." She shakes her head.
"Oh, um, s-sorry," Crissy stammers a bit. Still looking a fair bit self-consious. "It's just, like, with the stuff and all, we wanted to be sure you were fine. It's totally allright!"
Syela still isn't quite sure what's different about Cessie from normal. Sure the moving hair is probably odd, but not embarrassing. Maybe because it's evidence she made some mistake with magic? She's not sure.
"Fey-apples? I'd be careful about those Dorota, the only reason I took them was since I had to fix something my husband had managed to cause." Cessie explains. "I did take a couple of notes about the experiment I performed, you can read it all here." And there she goes handing over a detailed scientific report of how Harnel ate the apple seeds, turned into a fire fey and then turned himself female and his wife more shapely. It goes into detail about the time it took, the amount of aether which the seeds likely contained and a basic synopsis.
Dorota's eyebrows steadily rise as she reads the account. She does her best not to laugh when the report mentions Harnel turning himself female.
"Fascinating. It seems they're capable of transmuting matter significantly in small doses. Thanks for the warning, but I'd like to analyze them just the same. I probably won't be able to come up with a commercial use, but I'm curious."

Syela doesn't try to read it over Dorota's shoulder. Her reading speed isn't the greatest so it's not worth the trouble. At the suggestion that Dorota might use it for some potions, or at least try, the feychild looks very interested. It'd be interesting to see Dorota experimenting with it.
Harnel comes back up the stairs after a little while, carrying a tray with desert, dinner, and pitcher of water. There's also a glass, so that she can actually make use of the pitcher. For now, he just stands off to the side, watching and waiting for something to happen.

"If you're sure you may take a few from the green house outside. Harnel, can you unlock it for them? You do have the key after all." She reminds the half-dragon, glancing at him as he enters the room. "You could also fill in Dorota with some of the details of your transformation since I never got a chance to do an interview after you ate the seed. That'll be great!" She exclaims.
Dorota appears to have a coughing fit. In reality, it is an attempt to mask her profound desire to laugh.
"Thank you, Cessie. I'm sure *cough* that details won't be necessary if your husband feels uncomfortable with it, though. *cough*

Harnel just smiles and rolls his eyes, "No, it's fine, Dorota, I'll answer your questions. I'm sure my wife will be properly embarrassed once she's down from her high on the apple. I can show you to the Greenhouse then, if you'll follow me." Harnel will move in the direction of the stairs at this point, seeming a bit resigned to the whole questions thing.

"Hmph, I'm still very much aware who caused me to be 'high on the apple' Harnel or it would you who would be hiding up here right now." She tells the half-dragon with a stern look in his direction while crossing her arms over her chest. "I hardly need to be ashamed for your fetishes after all." She states before glancing at Dorota and the others. "He happens to like very large breasts if you hadn't guessed already."
Dorota tries to mask her laughter again, but fails, and ends up giggling hopelessly.
"I had my suspicions," she says, trying to sound serious (and failing). "Anyway, let's see those apples and then we can find out all about this incident. For scientific reasons, of course."

Crissy's cheeks turn bright red at Cessie's blunt declaration, and she giggles a little nervously - but also more openly as Dorota's can't help herself.
"Oh. I see. And yes - for science!"
Syela bursts out laughing. It looks like boys are no less predictable and single minded in the Nexus than back home. Typical really. And the tightness in Cessie's dress makes sense too now that her attention has been directed toward it.
Harnel can't help but laugh as well, "Well yes, I really like that, I'll admit. Draconic greed and all that." Harnel will then start to proceed down the stairs, not really looking for if the others are following him. Best to just escape while he can, even if he's enjoying it too.

"Some kind of magic tree or something?" Syela adds to the question. She has her own interest in the apples now that her attention has been drawn away from their recent hilarious application.
