For a really, really, really, really, REALLY, stupidly really long time people like me would look human to you, smell human to you, we'd feel human, sound human, all that. And then very, very recently, that stopped. 's why you can see the pointed ears and the special effects and hear my voice as it is."
Erin leans back thoughtfully in her chair. "...There's a lot of kinds of fairies. My folks try to be good ones."
Hold on, is there a reason we're explaining this badly?
(You mean is there a reason we're not telling the dude who still introduces himself as a cop about our people?)
...Fffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuck.
"...Also I'm not gonna lie I'm a bit distracted by the ones you were talking about, they're so naggingly familiar but I can't put my fuckin' finger on it. Where're they from? I keep trying to think of a book but I don't think it's a book."
