photogenic [djimmi the great]

Snap!

Again, you were unable to make it behind the large camera in time for the picture to be taken. And again you discarded the picture.

With a small pout, you sappily walked over to your big buff cheeto puff of a boyfriend, Djimmi the great. Great was an understatement in your eyes though.

You buried your face in his chest, screaming softly into his ghostly genie form. After letting out only a few of your emotions, you went limp, smushing yourself into his chest. He wrapped his arms around you, hugging you tight, rubbing small circles onto the small of your back.

Sure, your frustrated form was a sight to see. But he would admit that he enjoyed your happy, satisfied self a bit more.

"Djimmi I just wanna take a picture with you." You looked up at him, frowning softly. This was the 12th time you had tried. None of your tactics were working to get even close to taking this picture.

He'd started petting you softly, somehow calming you to some point. It was weird, but it did reduce your irritation a bit.

Then a lightbulb appeared atop of his head, and so did a great smile on his face.

"I could hit the button instead you know."

Wow. One of the simplest of responses, and one of the most logical ways of doing this! You snorted in response, nodding eagerly.

Hugging his torso you allowed Djimmi to extend his arm over to the camera, pressing the button that gave you a small countdown. Excitedly, you gave a big smile and so did your boyfriend, after fixing his turban.

Snap!

Happily you skipped over to the camera, taking the film and waiting for it to develop.

Gently motioning for the genie to move downwards, to which he obediently obliged, you placed several soft smooches to his cheek. He got incredibly embarrassed, hiding his face in his hat, the grin he currently had growing wider by the second.

And then the film developed.

The unexpected had occured. And honestly.. it was kind of amusing.

The genie looked over your shoulder as you held the incomplete picture in your hands. Key word. Incomplete.

You were there, as happy as ever. However, Djimmi was not. All that was there was his turban and the shoes he wore. A hand covered your mouth as you allowed him to observe the picture on his own.

You quieted a few giggles. He was just.. transparent. And he couldn't help it.

"Think if I rub the picture I could make myself reappear?"

"Djimmi! No!"

Though you two were unable to get your picture, you were able to get a stupidly cute memory of the time you and a special genie attempted to get a picture. He was not so photogenic, in other words.

But he couldn't help that, now could he?
