yanno what i was thinkin the other day? a genie would be liek the best sidekick ever, because when youre being a superhero and kicking somebodys ass they look up through bruises etc and they see the ridiculous image of a GENIE smiling down on them. it increases the FML factor a millionfold. *nods wisely and strokes beard*

yanno what else struck me? (feel free to kill me on this one.) here's the scene: dead summer; us, in convertible, with top down, cruising the hood with the volume all the way up. playing paris is indeed splendid.
is that not one of my best ideas ever? nobody in the hood would fuck with us cuz that song is fucking terrifying. LOL another song thats terrifying is cicilerini because like its a good song but lets just say that if my neighbors heard that theyd shit their pants and call the police. bound to strike fear into the hearts of many. true story. *claps hands, is a sultan* /whats with all the near east imagery /it's because of the blind owl

The way you incorporated all of the history was absolutely beautiful, your characterizations were perfect, and the dynamic between Turkey and Greece was an absolute pleasure to read.
This is seriously the best present ever. Thank you so much!
