Chapter: Story 16: I Dream of Nostalgia
What is up with Jeanie being miffed at Neil for his misunderstanding, here? Jeanie hid her manual labor from him, so how could he know she didn’t poof all this?
Oh hey, it’s Kazom!
You knew how many people would love to have an air breathing shark. Like Jeff from Marvel comics.
Not many people would want shark eating their laptops, through.
We all agreed that the shark’s name is Jump, right?
Nope. Good guess, but it’s Bruce.
And if Neil takes it head off, it becomes Caitlyn.
Wow, that certainly took off in a different direction than I expected.
Considering the nature of this comic, what do you expect? 😉
Oh, wait – you meant the LITTLE head.
Now it makes sense. 😉
Bruce didn’t have a little head, Bruce was the mother
Nice one Jeanie! Oh boy did he earn that.
Jeanie is miffed that Neil didn’t compliment her on her decorating choices. Guys, memorize these lines: “That shirt looks really good on you”; “I like the way your shoes match your sweater”; “Those jeans make your ass look thicc”.
The triumphant return of KAZOM!
Seems to me Jean feels a little taken for granted
Is Jeannie FINALLY going to deal with Red’s gender issue?
And end her existence in the MC? Don’t be silly. If anything, Jeanie will make things worse.
No, Kazom likely won’t even mention it; he’s concerned about talking with Jeannie about the Squat Oozy-ma, or whatever it’s called.
In fact, I predict that he’ll probably mention Jeannie in front of Tiffany, who will just about blow a gasket over the fact that Kazom didn’t take the opporunity to get Jeannie to reverse things.
The Quaint Zoomer thingy? Yeah, that’s the one that got her.
I get Kazom doesn’t really care about Red; but he cares about Melvin. And Melvin has done a lot of dangerous things trying to restore Clarence into his proper gender.
So, any plausible, in-universe reason for the former Genie Lord having avoided the easy solution of making a small trip to fetch Jeanie?
He might not believe that transforming Red back would actually help?
I can think of at least three:
Kazom may not want to antagonize the magical factions (like Southeil) who would prefer Red remain Tiffany as long as there is something akin to a magical cold war over Melvin.
Red’s transformation could have been fated to happen by prophecy.
Newbie genie Jeanie accidently ka-girled Red in a way that can’t be reversed.
Kazom might have some reason to believe it’s somehow to Red’s protection or benefit and why he believes this has yet to be shared with the audience.
Finally Kazom simply thinks it’s a done deal.
In all of these case Kazom may be keeping it to himself to keep Red from falling into despair. Kids have killed themselves over less.
There’s been lots of hints over at Melvin Chronicles that most magical creatures just see Red as Tiffany. One even called Melvin “Mr. Clark” and Red “young lady” even though Melvin was also transformed into a girl at the time.
You have to look at things from Kazom’s point of view.
I think that Kazom, as a naturally shape-shifting creature, simply doesn’t consider being in a different form to be anything to gripe about. After all, he’s stuck looking like a housecat for a largish chunk of eternity, and doesn’t seem the least bit bothered by it, so why should Red be complaining? That’s probably why he addresses her as “Princess” – he thinks she’s acting high and mighty, and should just shut up and accept it. He did, didn’t he?
On top of that, I don’t think he likes Red all that well, which is why he kind of enjoys getting a rise out of her with the “Princess” label.
And he may well take issue with her about the transformation – after all, instead of a neglected, ignored public-school boy with no particular prospects, Red is now a gorgeous, well-endowed girl with a budding modeling and film career who attends an exclusive prep school and gets tons of attention from both her parents and her peers. Sitting down to pee probably seems to Kazom like a small price to pay, so why should he interfere?
And besides, she’s probably a witch, so she can eventually do her own form-shifting, if she still cares to, by that point.
“Well, don’t say anything to anyone or everybody will want one.”
An air-breathing shark that ate laptops would certainly be MY first choice for a gag gift. Just drop him off at the Microsoft campus…
Land Shark! LOL
Genies can’t kill… right?
Not directly, no. But they’re compleely free to not save someone…
Yeah, “I materialize you a mile in the air and drop you” would be forbidden, but “I materialize you on the edge of a mile-high precipice and you slip” would be technically allowed.
In original 1001 nights jeanies could kill
In this universe that’s forbidden. https://jeaniebottle.com/information
I wonder if she filled his bedroom with water –again.
They would be the air sharks from the Doctor Who episode “A Christmas Carol”

That’s a cute St. Paddy’s day outfit that Jeannie is wearing in the header. I like it.
I think her smile in panel 2 is cute too
Yeah, that mischievous smile looks great on her!
Maybe she poofed “Fang” over from Total Drama Island. Anyone notice a missing shark tooth laying around? Fang is the mutant great white from “Revenge of the Island.”
Could be Fang, or maybe his cousin from down south.
Is it just me or did Jeanie’s butt get bigger when she changed into the genie outfit?
I think it’s the floofy fabric.
Yeh, she doesn’t look that hippy when she is on her surf board in that litle pink bikini.
I love that Shark has a character tag.
Happy St. Pat’s!
Hey i like jeannie’s fez
