Major Toni Nelson came home from work, one day. She went over to a bottle and uncorked it.
"Hi, Gene, I'm home."
A puff of blue smoke came out and materialized into Gene. He hugged and kissed her.
"Hi, Mistress! How was your day?"
She sighed. "Exhausting!"
"Lie on the couch, and I will rub your feet."
"That will be so nice!"
She sat on the couch and slipped her shoes off. Then she stretched her legs out. He sat on the other end and began massaging her stocking-clad feet.
"Thank you, Gene. That feels wonderful!"
"You are welcome, Mistress."
"What I really need is a hot bubble bath. I think I'll take one, after dinner."
"Why not now, Mistress?"
"No, that's OK-"
But it was too late; he blinked!
The couch turned into a tub of bubbly, soapy water. And Toni was lying in it-with her uniform on! Gene stood to the side of it.
"Is the water hot enough for you? I can adjust it."
She grew cross. "Gene, I've told you a thousand times: Do not automatically grant everything I say!"
"I am sorry, Mistress. I will blink it back."
She calmed down. "It's OK, Gene. This is nice. A little weird, with my uniform on! But this is actually very relaxing. Dry me off, when I finish."
"Yes, Mistress."
She sighed. "Can't you think of something else to call me than 'Mistress?!'"
"What else shall I call you-Master?"
"Mistress is fine, I guess!"
