[ivory academy] on brownies
Quinneapolis
brownies are fae creatures that have developed a fairly peaceful, symbiotic relationship with humans
Quinneapolis
they will gladly take care of your home, doing tons of household chores and maintenance
Quinneapolis
provided you adhere to the terms of the pact
Quinneapolis
they're whimsical, and each one has different needs and requests
Quinneapolis
but if you are good to your brownies, they will be good to you
Quinneapolis
in general, some common kinds of relationships between humans and brownies:
Quinneapolis
- poor families who are full of kindness and generosity, who have brownies falling over each other to get a gig in their home
Quinneapolis
- rich families that have in-house fae-specialized lawyers, who pay their brownies exorbitant wages in exchange for top-notch services
Quinneapolis
- rich stupid assholes who think they can cheat
Quinneapolis
you can't cheat.
Quinneapolis
never, ever try to cheat a brownie.
Quinneapolis
the other brownies will find out, and there are more of them than you think.
Quinneapolis
and their magic is scarier than you think.

i love the idea of fae-specialized lawyers, what a perfect urban fantasy idea
RobotApocalypse
fae are all about sticking to the letter of the law, of course you'd have people who specifically train in fae-style rules lawyering to broker deals with them
Quinneapolis
well paid to make sure you don't lose your soul to fine print
