I've consumed far too much horror media where the skeptic refuses to believe the evidence in front of them and ends up microwaved by a demonic head laser or whatever. Couldn't be me.

I think this is a characteristically Irish POV. Faeries aren't real. But also, you don't fuck with the faeries.

@astronomerritt I’m reading a book of Irish folktales rn and about a third of them are about two guys: one who said “hey don’t mess with that tree it’s full of faeries” and another who cut down the tree to make a wagon to get his stolen sheep to market or something and the faeries turned him into one of the sheep/made him poor/got his wife pregnant/all three

@bucknam Yeah, that sounds about right. You don't mess with a fairy tree.
