Fifty First Sip

Well, I did try to warn some of you that magic always comes at a price. It was only a matter of time before something like this happened. Maybe after this incident you'll be less inclined to just wish everything you want into existence because it's the easiest way. Be glad you don't live on my world, you'd all be up a creek without a paddle surrounded by ravenous crocodiles and perhaps a few rabid sharks by now.

So, how long precisely are you planning on hiding out there? Because my ability to care enough to cover for you is beginning to wear thin if you continue to be stupid and stay out in the middle of nowhere without any word if you're okay or not.

[Gods, this is awkward, but with Nikola brooding and James hiding, it was ultimately up to her to keep an eye on the poor woman] So. How're you settling in?

As did I. Maybe they'll actually learn this time.

It's doubtful, but we can hope.

Never gonna happen.

They really do enjoy shooting themselves in their own collective feet don't they?

[schrodingersghost]

No kidding. Hasn't anyone ever heard of bad wishes here?

[mal_addict]

Apparently not. And if they have, they're having a case of selective ignorance.

[schrodingersghost]

Typical. [People wanted to believe wishes were free. He'd figured that out a long time ago, after that first meeting with Desiree. It was the reason the genie was such a pain to fight. No matter how many times he told people not to make any wishes, no one ever listened.]
