"Bertil is a pet bat that Nix keeps." The blond explained while Kara searched google for the image of Barbara Eden. He looked at the image and nodded. Valkyries and their obsession with pop culture. It figured that Nix would use something like that to make a point.<br/><br/>"I admit that my knowledge of the djinn is lacking." The big man said to Kara. "One of your parents being djinn and Nix being off her rocker are not mutually exclusive." He shrugged. "Nix is manipulative. She withholds information and only doles out as much as amuses her and serves her goals. She planted this with her phone and Nix seldom does something without a reason."<br/><br/>He took his phone from Kara and put it on a nightstand, reaching past her to do so. His arm came perilously close to brushing against her front but it did not - for good or ill.<br/><br/>"It could be that your father was a Djinn and that you have the power to grant wishes and that's why someone sent demons to abduct you." The Berserker mused. "Russia hardly seems like the homeland of genies." But that would mean that Kara's mother Inessa was a female vampire and those were supposed to be extinct. Very strange. "And perhaps it explains why you like heat." The desert was not precisely prime vampire country, but most of the stories about genies in the old world came from very warm lands. Warmer than Russia, at any rate.<br/><br/>"I am not . . . completely lame." He said after a pause. "I do watch some television."
