sorry for curling up at your feet and whimpering like an injured dog that wasn't very mysterious of me

Fairies and maids coincide somewhat in the case of the brownie and etc, and the result is certainly very peculiar.

[needle-thread-thimble-spear]

I think a fairy maid would probably be one of most miserable and desperate beasts imaginable

[needle-thread-thimble-spear]

If I saw a fairy I'd dispatch the terrible beast immediately. They're basically covered in horrid dust and it tends to make the houseguests unruly

[needle-thread-thimble-spear]

why would the fairy maid be so miserable and desperate?

Thing about the archetype of "fairy". think about the archetype of "maid". superimpose the two. it doesn't turn out well

Bowfin (Amia calva), family Amiidae, order Amiiformes, Detroit River, MI, USA

This fish was caught as part of a scientific survey, and was released after the photo was taken.

Other names for this species include: mudfish, mud pike, dogfish, grindle, grinnel, swamp trout, and choupique.

This fish is a member of an ancient lineage that dates back to the early Triassic. (This and another species of bowfin are the only 2 members of this group that are still around).

Bowfins are capable of breathing oxygen from the air (with their swim bladder), as well as water (with their gills).

I don't remember much about The Things They Carried (1990), and I'm sure if I read it now I would have Opinions about the Political Implications (as is inevitable with any piece of Vietnam-related fiction written in the US).

However, I think a lot about the bit where he draws a distinction between "things that happened but aren't true" and "things that didn't happen but are true," particularly in the context of fiction.
