Adam turns, his face delighted. "Hey Piper!"

Then astonished. "Wow...." he takes her in.

She is, meanwhile, eyeing the Djinn. "This is new."

"Love the cut" Gerd says

Nabuni says "Ooo nice job"

And eyes widen on on the demoness. "Is that... Nab?"

Nabuni twirls, her outfit shifting to look like a catholic school girl but with horns tail wings "Taddaaa"

"You look amazing, Pi......." distracted "Oooo..."

Mazu-Morkata looks down at Piper, "Are you one of Master Adam's Harem?"

Gerd facepalms

She puts a hand on her hip, giving the Djinn a slow look over that seems to be unimpressed. "Are YOU?"

"NO she is not." Adam asserts.

Mazu-Morkata hurumphs "Of course not. For I am Mazu-Morkata, of the third Circle of Djinn, a power as the likes to be seen not in this world for a hundred... oo coffee" he says as Gerd hands him a mug

Nabuni says to PIper in a whisper "It's chimera like him that make the rest of us embarrassed. SO sorry"

"You're the one calling him 'Master'. Sounds like you're his little harem wench to me." She responds, still a little peeved.

Adam waggles the lamp at the Djinn.

Mazu-Morkata swells and looms "I could crush you with..." then Adam waves the lamp "Bah. Fine. " A long sip of his coffee and he hands it back to Gerd...then goes into the lamp

Adam blinks at the spout.

"Piper and Nab are my -friends-." he tells the.... spout.

With the djinn out of sight suddenly, she takes stock again. A look at the lamp, and at Nab, and back at the lamp, and then at Adam, a brow raised. "Really?"

A shrug. "There was... a thing. And we ended up with the lamp and we needed healing and..... then this."

"Hi." He smiles at her. "Love your look."

"You don't just FIND genie lamps, Adam. What's the 'thing'?" Gerd asks

He looks at Gerd. "Is the Chief, Mountain, or Hearth here, Gerd?"

She gives him a small smile, reaching up to run a hand through the short springy curls. "Today is humid and I wanted to ask Sylvi about some curl creme... but.. really, if what Disney tells us is true... Ultimate cosmic power... what did you wish for?" Her brow wrinkling up a little.

Adam -smiles- at Piper. "Healing. That's all. There are two more wishes."

Gerd gives a look ,and takes a breath "As I told Piper... it's just us here now."

"Crap." In response to Gerd. "Any idea when someone might get here? Can we call or something?"

A pause thoughtful - "Nabuni... you're TALLER than me now. Sheesh. Everyone here is bigger than me." A small smile.

"Adam... DETAILS on the story?"

Gerd says a bit firmer

Nab laughs "He is saying I'm short so apparently there's some marker neither of us reaching" A snort "Trolls make anyone look stunted"

Adam gravitates towards Piper and Nab. "You're both .... uh, shorter than me."

A wave over to Gerd. "Gerd is right... I WOULD like to hear the whole story."

Gerd ponders Adam.. Lake. Would the lamp get flooded?

Then Gerd says "Thank you."

To Piper

"Uh... ok. So Nab and I were heading out to the woods, to walk. And we found this... fight. An Amazon satyress and a gold guy who could use ice magic and the satyr... oh, she could use fire...." He coughs "...and while they fought I grabbed the lamp."

"And ran."

"A fire guy?" Gerd does not disbelieve, but she tries to think of where she's heard of those

"Like a..." Her brow wrinkles up. "The natural fae. Like Dagmar's rock friend." Trying to remember lessons she half-paid attention to.

"I know what satyrs are like." He grins at Piper. "The Amazon was one of you.... but the other guy? No idea."

"A Salamander... No, it's like the king. Solomon... Solimond." She snaps her fingers as she places it.

"Ok?"

"They're like, if fire was a Kith."

Gerd nods "THat's right, THANK you. I couldn't remember. Oh.. I hope he doesn't run into Klump. I don't think they get along"

"Kinda..." A shrug. "I think I was dozing during that lesson?"

"Is -Olgar- here? Can we call Sir Vali?"

"I'll send out a text but things are busy," Gerd says "Lots of.. well, serious shit I get the feeling. What's the crisis? The wishes?"

"Yeah, the wishes." Adam huffs. "Limited time offer, fix shit around here. If they want. Otherwise, I got some things but.... whatever."
