"This place is huge." He lays back and folds his hands under his head.
--
"If you say so. But we'll go on dates, right?"

"Entertaining. This is a big joke for you."

"I see. Have you met them all?"
--
"Good. Think of some nice places to go."

She plays more nonsense.

"Not right now. I think that's why he wanted to come."
---
He smiles slightly.
---
"I do this for my own benefit." He leans forward. "You want to speak with djinn. And you also want my theories on not aging, correct?"

"Mm. Do you know how to swim?"

"La la laaaa. Do you sing?" She looks at him.

"Yep."

He glances at his hands and makes a face.

He holds up one finger. "I have one theory," he holds up another finger, "and one fact."

"Good. You can save me if I drown."
--
"Is that a no?"

"Your theory is that it can be done and your fact is that it can't?" He grins.

"That's too much work."
---
He shakes his head. "No."

"You haven't earned that information." He leans back in his seat. "This is what I'll offer - You can have five minutes with the djinn each day you remain here. Remain here for one month with no incidents and I'll tell you."
