024 -- [Action]
[It is on the fourth day of the experiment that Shikamaru leaves his apartment. Free of those stupid thought bubbles, this should've been a good thing. But as he walked, it felt like he was being drawn to something. A weird breeze picked up. The sky literally became overcast. Ominous shit, man. 8|
It's only when he walked past a tree that he saw it. His old foe thought long gone when he defenestrated it months ago.]
Oh, not this again-

May 27 - June 1
[For these four days of the experiment, around the village there is atoaster ~magic lamp~ waiting to be found. In that tree! On that bench! On top of that fountain! How did it get in all these weird places? NO IDEA. But pick it up, and BAM. SMOKE PELLETS, and you suddenly have your very own genie (barefoot, with an outfit something like this). Careful what you wish for.]
Can we make this quick?
[[ ooc: So Shikamaru's fairy-taled into a genie again! You get three (3) wishes, and he will be 'granting' them as literally as possible.
As per the guidelines of the old fairy-tale event: nothing wished for is actually real. It will look like it is! But your character is either interacting with something imaginary or a mundane object: like thinking they picked up a magic lamp when it's really a toaster. Wish to be a sorcerer? While effected it's like COOL YOU HAVE MAGIC POWERS. Only not really, you were just pointing at things.
TL;DR: it's one giant game of pretend. Have fun. 8|b ]]

At least he would put up with him. 8|
....true. man shikamaru, way to not be british.
... and yet still less of a prick than Sherlock tends to be. Not that that's a great benchmark to judge all interactions on, honestly, because he'd let people slide by with a hell of a lot using it. But he's taking into account the fact that the kid's been turned into a genie and stuffed in a magic
toasterlamp today, which he obviously is not a fan of. Not many people would be fans of it. ] But if wishing to forfeit the whole mess works, I'm fine with that.no subject

Oh, wait, right. Have a little half-bow and a finger wiggling gesture. They're just the natural genie-handling instinct. ] I wish to forfeit the rest of my wishes. You're free to go until someone else trips over you or things settle down again. Don't get yourself punched in the meantime.
[ No seriously, don't. He's not that mean :| ]
no subject
[JUST. SAYING.
And okay, looks like this is his shortest-lived master. If he weren't racially-anime, he'd probably stick a hand out for a handshake.]
I'm gone after this, so good working with you.
no subject
Yeah, likewise. [ Not really but whatever man, manners. ] Here's hoping for a fast week.

[He snaps his fingers: wish granted.]
Later.
[And he's gone in a poof of magic!!
...or well. Picking up his toaster and exiting the premises. Magically. 8|]
