Just have your GF make a wish for a pair of x-wings. Or that you both have super powers. Or whatever. She would be a new customer and this able to make 1 wish.

Edit: Wait... Did she just poof into existence or was she already in line? I've seen this comic so many times and only now am I noticing the girl is in the first panel.

She was poofed into existence one hour in the past, and started walking toward the well. At first it was just a zombie shuffle, mindless and jagged. But slowly and surely, she remembered her made-up past, forgot that she had materialized from thin air.

Wait, does this mean the well knows what you will wish for before you wish for it? We're getting into some weird areas here...

Perhaps everything we do is the preamble to some future dingbat’s wish. Maybe all of history is unavoidably conspiring to lead to a truck of cash toppling over in front of him, after which point we’ll all blink and look around, dazed, unsure what to do.

But 2 days later the necromancer fell short of energy and she decomposed on the sheets.

If we’re reading that particular top to bottom he does say “true love” and she could then be walking up.
