“…for I am your father!”
All of his wishes could be interpreted as only applying in the past.
Not if the djinn is a stickler for correct grammar.
“I wish I had known my father” - past
“I wish I knew my father” - subjunctive
Nah come on, we can corrupted wish this one better… He’s transformed into Napoleon. Now he knew his father (who died when he’s 15), He’s happy when he’s succeeding, obviously doesn’t lack in confidence.
Well I guess, from Napoléon perspective, being Napoléon is necessarily an upgrade, so it’s a win?
Short term absolutely, the specific prereq of being “happy” is on there. Though say making him napoleon just before Waterloo would fulfill that goal, obviously I don’t think that happyness lasted.
Even after waterloo he’d çtill have Nâpoléon’s çtink fetish.
idk about therapy but for me going to the psychiatrist was exactly like this! He gave me some meds and told me those were not “happy pills” but that they would help. He lied. Those were indeed happy pills. Now my life is awesome
