"Zo jou will take the Hat, and zhe Mischa?"

[Maiden Miki]

"Yes. I will please. How much will it be?" asked Mia with a smile.

[Kether]

"Yes. I will please. How much will it be?" asked Mia with a smile.

"50 HL"

[Maiden Miki]

"50 HL"

"Oh my! That is a bargain," said Mia as she looked into her vest and tried to look for her wallet. She smiled nervously and looked up at the maid. "Please excuse me. I need a little bit of time to look for my purse."

[Kether]

"Tap zhe hat"

[Maiden Miki]

"Tap zhe hat"

"Oh yes! Sorry for the trouble," said Mia as she smiled and took the hat off her head. She then took the wand and lightly tapped it.

*her purse reappears in the hat*

[Maiden Miki]

"Oh wow. How very handy," smiled Mia as she opens up her purse and pulled out the money. She then happily gave it to the maid and then said, "Is that enough?"

[Kether]

"Oui Madam, is there anything else you are interested in? Perhaps a stage for your act?"

[Maiden Miki]

"Oui Madam, is there anything else you are interested in? Perhaps a stage for your act?"

"A stage? You have that?" asked Mia as she looked curious.

The genie--let's call her 'Jamie', since she used to be a James--nods a couple of times before standing up. "IT SHALL BE DONE!" she says in a voice that radiates power, her eyes glowing and hair rising up for a couple of seconds from a brief surge of magical power. Then she waves her hands in the direction of Melanie the kitsune, and a wave of purple smoke fires off at its target, wrapping itself around her.

Melanie finds herself immediately shrinking, her chest deflating rather swiftly, while her clothes gather together, the middle sections turning white. Her ears and tail shrink a little bit, but remain present; her hair turns a brighter color and shortens to frame her face and stop before her shoulders. Soon all signs of maturity are gone, and she is left at the age of roughly 10, her clothes shifted to a sailor uniform, though one with a short skirt. Some of the smoke coalesces in front of her eyes and forms a pair of big, round glasses; at the same time her vision alters to make those glasses necessary. She ends up looking like a grade-school kitsune.

Melanie finds her confidence in her own magic thoroughly shaken; she still seems to know how to do all of the stuff she could do before, but will inevitably get a feeling of nervousness, of just knowing she'll mess it up somehow, whenever she starts to cast something. Her magic is directly effected in that it cannot undo the changes made by this curse of a wish, and if she actually casts a spell intended to directly effect another person it has an 80% chance of backfiring--which can take the form of: (1) making Melanie lose a few more months of age, (2) making her feel less confident, (3) having an opposite effect from the one intended, or (4) hitting the wrong person entirely. Of course, she isn't aware of these rules or the associated loopholes..only of the feeling that she'll mess up if she tries to cast any spell at all.

The genie watches all this, tapping a finger on her chin. "Hmm..I don't usually have such a penchant for the dramatic... It feels off to be this faithful to a wish, but it was her fault I got sucked into the lamp in the first place."

((Hope this works for everyone involved.))

"Oui Madam, is there anything else you are interested in? Perhaps a stage for your act?"

"A stage? You have that?" asked Mia as she looked curious.

"Oui madam, a stage that can be setup wherever you need"

*She sighs*"Does madam need assistance?"

[Maiden Miki]

"Oh! That sounds nice! It could be very useful too," said Mia with a smile.

[Kether]

"Oh! That sounds nice! It could be very useful too," said Mia with a smile.

She picks up one for her, "I am sure jou could perform quite the act with your new asssitant, no?"

[Harri-chan]

As the purple smoke wrapped around her, Melanie spun, the trail leading right back to little Sam and the new Genie. "You!", she shouted across at them. She started to march purposefully toward the pair, shrinking as she did so. It was quite a shock to find herself almost eye to eye with Sam when she got there, and for a moment she looked the girl up and down with a puzzled expression.

It was spotting the rather large genie that made her realised what had happened, and she let out a suitably childish cry of frustration. "You were supposed to use that on other people!", she yelled, and raised her hands as of ready to cast a spell. However, self-doubt flickered across her face, and she glanced to her fingertips. Being reduced to a pre-teen was one thing, but it was the loss of confidence in her magic that really got her.

Her eyes darted about nervously behind her new glasses, and she clenched her hands into little balls, "It's a trick... you just tricked me into thinking I can't do it right!", she accused the genie. Her breathing was a little uneven, and she looked utterly lost until Josephine appeared at her side. "She used it against me!", she said with an utterly shocked expression, pointing at little Sam. "Against... ME!",
