Zonko’s was when she’d heard the history of thrown around here and there, the tales of the epic pranks that had come from the Weasley twins original days before they began creating their own products. And it had made her, perhaps, a little bit curious.

Entering into the shop, she allowed the door to drift shut behind her as her feet carried her fully in and among all the unknown products. Tam glanced this way and that at the shelves, looking for anything of interest to examine (where would one find the OLDEST products?) when she heard a voice inquiring about a use. A… frog? Tam’s head turned and she spotted two of her sisters shared housemate, and gave her a small smile as she stepped closer. “That seems an odd prank.” She nearly asked who would want to do that, but then she paused, “You know… if that is the use. Maybe it could be used for a Princess and the Frog type of reenactment, if one timed it properly.”
Probably one of the reasons that Emma never really lurked in this shop is because she hated to be pranked herself, as she found most of the jokes rather repulsive. Though even she couldn't deny the allure of their creativity.

She hadn't actually been sure anyone was listening when she heard someone talking to her ? Glancing up from the frog soap, she vaguely recognized the girl from a couple lessons. "Wonder how long the transfiguration might last ... Although maybe not because aren't like, these jokes and pranks not always what they seem?"
