"You have freed me," it said, "so I'm obliged to grant you a wish."
It hesitated. "But I am not very powerful."
I nodded. "Of all things I need, give me the greatest you can."
Suddenly, I held a large mug of hot cocoa.
Neat concept. The genie of sufficiency. Not earth changing, but still pretty cool, and you might avoid monkey paw type shenanigans.

What would a genie do if you don't make a wish? Would they just hang around?
It's not like they have much to do. Do they just lay dormant in the lamp till someone rubs it?
Maybe they have whole other life in the lamp and randomly get pulled out while boiling pasta, that could be a problem.

That's another thing SM has caused me to buy this week: first Lime Marmalade, now Drinking Chocolate. (At least they're relatively inexpensive, unlike the book purchases.)

@MicroSFF yesssss

@MicroSFF Oh, thank you, genie. You are more powerful than you know. Now please place a similar quantity of hot chocolate in the lungs of my least favorite enemy.

@MicroSFF this was so cute!
I would be so tempted to ask the little genie how best to make my house inviting to other little spirits so that any passing by could stop and have a rest.
