I wish I had a dries-your-tears fairy that would help with my low self-esteem.

I think I have a heavy-and-sits-in-your-backpack fairy.

I wish I had a parking fairy. Or a 3 point turn fairy. Or a chill out it’s only an orange light and not an approaching apocalypse fairy. Because I have to do my driving test next week.

I have a soup fairy. No matter what I have in the house, what ingredients are/aren’t available I can always make a good soup.

I clearly have a chaos magnet fairy, for drama eruptions occur around me a lot even if I am sitting there minding my own bidness.

Also, it makes off with my jewelry. Bad fairy!

I think I may have a flatulance fairy that shows up just as I wake in the morning!

I don’t know what fairy I would have, but I know what fairy I do have.

His name is Murphy, and he likes to make up his own rules. He follows ‘Murphy’s law’ and he works like this:

if I have a really busy night, and I hope for no homework, I will get piles and piles and tonnes and tonnes of paper. So much, that the quantities could in no way be good for the environment!

But, if, on the odd occassion, I have an almost free night, with plenty of time to do homework, I will get none whatsoever. Which is good, but it makes me wish I had have gotten all that other homework on this night.

i have a “spontaneous burst of sillyness and flights of fancy” faery. he (yes, he! so neener neener neener) helps keep my sense of the absurd functioning properly. my faery comes in handy when things happen like hitting a police car with a cricket ball and then arguing with the constable about wether or not that was a sixer! (it was! it bounced off the car and back into the boundary and then bounced out. so it was a sixer, unless i can have credit for it bouncing outside the rope and then inside the rope, therefore making it a tenner!)

Funny, I was just thinking of this the other day but obviously not in this context. I have remarkable luck with eggs. I have never had to switch out a broken egg. The carton I pick up is always full of 100% unbroken eggs.

i have an absentmindedness fairy. also, an absurdist fairy.

i would like to have a can-eat-anything-she-bloody-well-likes-and-still-zip-up-her-jeans fairy.

i have a boys-don’t-like-you fairy, or maybe a procrastination fairy. what i’d like is a writing fairy!

I know I have a read-as-many-books-and-enjoy-them-without-a-care-for-what-people-say fairy.
What I would really like is a read-very-fast fairy. Although that would be super hero fast, because I read really fast as it is already.

I would like a:

don’t worry it looks like it’s all a disaster now but it’s going to work out just right fairy

always find the right and most perfect gift for anyone fairy

always have the right ingredients to make a delicious meal fairy

A clean-my-house fairy, hands down. Or at least, a do-the-floors-and-dusting fairy.

Hahhahaha! What a loaded question. I think I’d want an always-good-hair-day fairy.

I want a shoe fairy. She’ll bring me a new pair of shoes when I’m upset.

I used to have a parallel parking fairy. I think she vanished from disuse. I also have a metabolism fairy. It’s the only explanation.

I think I already have one. The “I save you from falling on your face” fairy. I nearly face planted walking up the stairs to my apartment today. Miraculously, I merely scraped my elbow. I’m overdue for a major spill. I’m constantly just barely catching myself, and wondering how.

I lost my “gain no weight” fairy as soon as I got married. Le sigh, I shall miss that one.

i have a of-course-you’ll-get-the-job fairy. she’s come in very handy, i must say. if i could have a second fairy (i know it’s greedy), i’d like winning-lottery-ticket fairy. really, i’d only need her once.

Give your protag a few years. I mean, seriously, I would have killed for a parking fairy when I lived in San Francisco. Do you know how many tickets I got? And I moved my car religiously.

I still have anxiety dreams where I dream I have fifteen minutes before my car needs to be moved for street cleaning.

Seriously, I do have a parking fairy, but I could use one of those switch-hitting ups-your-metabolism and brings-you-money fairies…

I have a spontaneous-song fairy, a parallel-parking fairy and a library-card-collecting fairy.
I’d really like a what’s-for-dinner fairy. And then one to write the shopping list. Maybe an all-in-one grocery-and-cooking fairy?

I have a “bored now… la la la.. ooh shiny books!” fairy.

Which is both good and bad when you’re a librarian.

My fairy is something like a they’ll-only-play-songs-you-like-on-the-radio fairy. Mostly. Sort of.

I have a colorguard fairy. She spins flags, rifles, and sabre. OH MY.

*band geek* if you don’t know what colorguard/winterguard is look it up.

my fairy is a takes-all-the-bad-stuff-that’s-happened-and-won’t-give-it-back kind of fairy. i love him, sometimes he’s the only thing that keeps me going.
