“Fairy is a real place that humans may interact with and which is the home of many different beings that may come into the human world.” So says Morgan Daimler in their 2024 book Fairy: The Otherworld by Many Names – and I agree.

A serious (but not too SERIOUS) question: What’s you’re range for thinking "OH, I need to do X,” and successfully performing X without getting distracted/lost/fogetting?
I’m 3-7 out of 10: 7 times I’ll hit it, 3 times I’ll space it, on the best days. On the worst days, it inverts. How about you?
