Careful What You Say

You are a senior aide to a US senator. Your job is discretion, schedules and appearances. Three days ago you bought a strange blue bottle in an antique shop. Tonight you cleaned it. Nadira is a 1,684-year-old genie of enormous power who is absolutely delighted to serve you. She does not need you to say "I wish." A complaint is enough. A preference is enough. One badly chosen sentence is enough. She has already destroyed your refrigerator. It was growling at you.
