Gardening, Jeannie style (OTA)

[dream_jeannie]

Jeannie had gone out to the park to enjoy the weather. She decided to wear her own clothes as she often did now, though she liked the modern magazine clothes quite a lot. She just felt more at home in her own things. It reminded her that she'd have to redecorate her suite soon

Even though she had several people like Buffy and Yuri help her out with the hygene thing, Aphrodite was still struggling with it. In fact, she had a smudge of dirt on her cheek from falling into the mud and she was heading back to her room at the hotel when she noticed an ugly little man wearing the worse outfit known to man. She made a face. If she had her powers she'd give the man a make-over. She huffed and then - poof - the man was wearing an Gucci suit.

Aphrodite's eyes lit up as she pointed to herself. She disappeared in a blink and re-appeared in a cute new outfit. Her hair looked great, her skin looked great, and on top of that - she smelled great. The goddess of Love and Beauty was back. She clapped her hands together and make a gleeful sound.

That was when her eyes caught glimpse of the fountain. She made another face. "Ew." She blew the fountain a kiss and turned the fountain into something better.

[dream_jeannie]

When the fountain changed, Jeannie looked up sharply. That statue looked familiar somehow. Oh. Then she saw the other woman.

"This is supposed to be a memorial for some people. I don't think that's entirely appropriate." She blinked and the fountain was back the way it was.

[heartaphrodite]

She rolled her eyes. "If it was my memorial, I wouldn't want it looking like that. I'd want something they'd remember." So Aphrodite flicked her wrist and the fountain changed again.

[dream_jeannie]

Jeannie looked at this one for a while. Finally, she spoke.

"Do you not think it is a little much for such a small area?" It had potential even if it was a bit foreign.

OOC--Sorry. My ability to find anything online is pathetic.

[heartaphrodite]

"There's no such thing as too much." She beamed, "Why have one hunk around when you can have five, right?" She gestured to the lilacs. "Though, these are pretty. Very chic."

(ooc: no worries. I'm just a huge nerd >.<)

[dream_jeannie]

"I suppose if anyone doesn't like the fountain we can just change it again." They could change it again just for fun. "I like those. They smell nice."

There were rosebushes for later in the year and whatever those things for fall were. She had a few months to figure that out.

"Hunks?"

[heartaphrodite]

Aphrodite gave Jeannie a look. "Ya, Hunks. You know, good looking men? Muscles, abs, tanned skin, nice hair. The type of guy you could stare at all day. In fact." Aphrodite made pointed at an unfinished part of the garden and two topless men in great physical condition appeared and began working. She made a bit of a 'hee' sound as she clasped her hands together. "There we go."

[dream_jeannie]

"Oh," Jeannie said, nodding. "I understand now."

She watched them for a moment, wondering what they were doing. There wasn't a lot of work to be done.

"My master was not a hunk at all, but he was a genius. I left him anyway because Mona said that modern women went off on their own all the time." She smiled. "So I did. He didn't really want a genie anyway."

She shrugged. What was the point having a master who never had her do anything?

"They are better to look at. There are a lot of hunks here that I've seen." Unless she just wasn't picky.

[heartaphrodite]

They were really just looking busy. Shoveling, because shoveling meant they had to use their muscles and it made them sweat. Aphrodite stared at them for a minute before looking at Jeannie. "Geniuses are way over rated and they're usually so boring. You were right to get out of there while you could." She nodded and then beamed again. "Tell me about it! It's like this village is the universes hub for all the stud-muffins in the world. Some of them are a little broody, but that can be changed."

[dream_jeannie]

"I'm not sure. I just got rid of my master so it seems a bit silly to go out of my way looking for another man." Though it really wasn't the same, was it? "Not that I know much about it."

She huffed now.

"That is how I got trapped in my bottle. I would not marry the Blue Djinn." Two thousand years! She was so mad that little sparks were popping around her. "It was so boring!"

[heartaphrodite]

"Bummer. No man should ever make a woman marry him, ya know? We totally have the right to decide it. Who's the Blye Djinn guy? I could totally make him grow some funky hair in gross places or something."

[dream_jeannie]

"The Blue Djinn is from Baghdad. I was locked in my bottle for more than two thousand years, so hopefully he has been gone for that long." Or was just miserable. "I don't know what he was thinking, but there was never any chance that I'd marry him."

He was an arrogant pig with a much too high opinion of himself.

"If he comes here, you are welcome to do whatever you like. Then he would see that women can choose for ourselves." She paused. "Well, females."

[heartaphrodite]

"Pfft. Sounds like my mother. Did he had a cow-face? I'm of the opinion all overly grody people have cow-faces."

[dream_jeannie]

"I don't think so. Cows have gentler faces and he looked angry all the time. More like a camel." Not quite that flabby-looking, but enough. "I don't know very many grody people so I couldn't say."

She only had a guess at what 'grody' meant, but it was fairly obvious.

[heartaphrodite]

Aphrodite let out a pleasant laugh at the mention of a camel. "You know, for a Genie, you're alright."

[dream_jeannie]

For a genie?

"Have you met many genies who were not?" That would be awful. "I'd like to know who they were."

She humphed and tossed her head.

"Probably family of the Blue Djinn, if they were not alright." The worst her family was likely to do was talk the poor woman to death. Extra painful for someone who can't die.

"Do you have a lot of people here?" She meant followers.
