What do I get for letting you in? Word it in a clear, even trade.
I ain't owing a Fae shit, they already took my gender for a slice of delicious cake.

! TRADE OFFFER !
I get: lamp
You get:
Alright, fair's fair. Here's your even trade:
You let me in, and I’ll give you insight sharper than iron and secrets older than names. No riddles, no debts — just access for knowledge. No gender-snatching, no glamour-tricks. Deal?
I don't think I can go more insane without jumping into super-sanity, so I'm down.
Just to clarify, since I am considering several Fae offers and seek insight, did they replace your gender with another or are you now operating (just fine, I am sure) sans gender?
But a fine piece of cake would cloud my judgement in the moment, so I need the right headspace for these negotiations.
I got caught in-between. While I am now aligned with the opposite gender, I equally have days where I identify as completely without gender.
It might have also come with a change of species? Or they're just narcissistic, because I'm Genderfae. I will admit, on the genderless blob androgynous days, I do have insatiable cravings for honeyed milk and bread, and begin planning on how to swap any children I see with one of our own....
Dang, those Fae are nefarious! But they do seem to have a lot of fun.
Now, I am an older gay cis male, but hung out with some radical faeries in Iowa about 20 years ago. Some true warriors in that crew.
Do their eyes really glow like that?
Edit: wait I know how to use the internet. They do glow. That's wild.
It's just light reflection, same as with cats. Helps with seeing in low light I think.
Anybody who believes in fairies knows better than to let it in
Yes, and that's why you stay outside.
