Summary
Some scenes from an alternate version of Disney's Aladdin.
What if people were good at wishing? The Genie's rules have holes you could drive a herd of camels through, but they don't have to. Aladdin and Jafar's wishes are shallow and limited, and lack the foresight that really effective wishing entails, but wouldn't a battle between effective wishers be much more interesting? And while we're at it, why does Jasmine have so little agency and basically act as a prize to be won in a battle between two men when literally the entire point of her narrative is that she's not that?
Not exactly a complete fanfic, but enough of one that if you've seen the movie you can probably fill in the gaps yourself.
Contains normative advice on the use and binding of Genies.
