People always forget that "fairies" aren't all cute and sparkly. Trolls are a type of fairy, kelpies which drown people are a type of fairy. The Sluagh were fairies that were born from the souls of evil people. Fairies can be dark and evil just like any other creature. Because they're so many types of fairies besides "tiny girls with butterfly wings that sit prettily on flowers".
The misconception that they're all cute and therefore girly irritates me. Fairies are pranksters but they're also petty, manipulative and childish.This same misconception came up in Pokemon years back when they type was announced. Yes, it's the common way people think of fairies when they're mentioned and they're commonly portrayed as sweet and sparkly but common isn't synonymous with correct or exclusive.
Anyways, I prefer fairies over plant sims anyday. They have similar abilities in past games which is why I brought up plant sims but fairies are so much more fun. Fairies, witches, werewolves and mermaids are all occults I wouldn't complain about having.
