While Genie's were not well known for making choices on their own, Genie made hers, and decided to allow Olivia her rest for now. Hard enough to explain to her that she shared a body with a twenty-something, let alone that she was also a Genie's Master. Besides, better was the Master you knew than the Master you did not.
"Yes, of course, Master, you still have three wishes you may use. But, I must add one caveat, no wish you make can bring harm to Olivia, mental or physical."
"Now why the hell is that?"
"Because you and she share a body, she as well as you are my Master, and my wishes can not bring harm to my Master."
"First, your wishes? You don't get wishes, Genie, you grant them to your superiors. Second, putting me in this body isn't considered harming me? I could break my hip and die."
I wish you would, the Genie thought, and then she chastised herself for wishing any ill upon her Master. Outwardly, she grimaced and rubbed her head.
"It is not, Master."
Olivia/Claire sighed.
"Well, I better get out of this body. Did you do anything to Kevin? I remember my wish involved him."
"I did the same, Master. He now lives in the body of Olivia's husband."
"Wonderful. Now, Genie, I'm about to make a wish. If you mess it up in any way, I will stuff you back into your lamp and throw it into the Pacific. Wishes are no good to me if they are curses."
Genie bowed, wondering if she hadn't gone too far too fast. But it was too late to take back poor decisions. And while Claire sounded very firm, Genie wondered when push came to shove, if Claire could give up so much power like that.
"Then, Genie, I wish that Kevin and I were back in our own bodies and that we owned this house."
Magic rose up again and Genies mind was filled with the desire to fulfill her Master's desire. How it happened, though, was up to her. . .
