#I really hope they keep dev and peri’s relationship

I genuinely don’t know how to feel about the fop: a new wish’s finale. It felt like it was missing something. And made me go; “oh. It’s over.”
What is going on with Dev’s whole memory thing? He’s been one of my favorite characters since day one so I would hate if they just ignored him in the second season.
If he dosent remember anything then what will happen to Peri? Peri and Dev’s relationship is something I think we all wanted to see more of and they even teased us with it at the end.
The conversation Dev and Peri had was a conversation we had been wanting them to have for a while. It would suck if all of that was just undone.
I really loved his Dev-elopement in the show (I’m sorry) and it was cool to see him also have a fairy god parent. It was a unique idea the original show never really did.
The part with Hazel’s friends getting to keep their memories wasn’t really impactful for me because I never really got attached to them in the first place. It’s a unique idea sure, but one I’m honestly not to excited for.
The fact the change seems ok at best and the whole question mark surrounding Peri and Dev made my enjoyment go down a lot.
I can’t believe i forgot to mention it until now but I did really enjoy Irep in this episode as well. He’s always been an enjoyable character for me so I honestly don’t have much to say about him.
The main reason I started watching the show was for Peri and the main reason I stayed was for Dev (and still Peri lol). I think Hazel and her family/friends are interesting enough for standalone episodes but (at least for me) aren’t enough to keep me watching by themselves.
I’m nervous on how the second season will go but that’s assuming they even get a new season. I hope they do and I hope they address some of these potential problems.
I’ve gotten too invested in Dev and Peri (and their relationship) for the story to break them up now.

Fairly Odd Parents; A New Wish finale spoilers!!
Okay so am I the only one who didn’t like the fact that Hazel’s friends now know about the fairies?
Because like, how do you go on from that? Maybe it’s because I never really got attached to her friends the same way I did with Dev, but it’s just racking my mind over how the episodes in season two will go.
It kind of feels like them knowing about the fairies will only cause troublesome situations like “oh it’s fine! Hazel can just wish us out of this mess” or “Hazel can you wish this for us please?” Which will probably cause a lot of problems, and there’s no going back from that.
It could be because on every site I watched FOPANW for free, it’s missing “The Wellsington Hotellsington” episode which I’m pretty sure is the episode where Winn gets formally introduced, and the trio’s friendship cements. I’ll probably have to buy that episode since websites don’t want to add it for some reason…
But now Season 2 most likely will be focused more on the trio and their shenanigans, so I don’t knowww… I’m really biased though, I love Dev as a character and I love his and Hazel’s dynamic (before the whole taking over fairy world thing)☹️
I like Jasmine and Winn but I just don’t care for them, you know?
And onto Hazel’s brother Antony, he’s cool and all but why does he need to know about the fairies?
Like I know this makes it SO much easier for Hazel, and it’s basically a huge weight lifted off of her, but story wise?? Eughhh I don’t know😖
I mean, if they explore his and Deja’s relationshipppp hmmm okayyyy😋😋 But I just know how they’d segue way into that, and thinking about it makes me uncomfortableeee!!
Basically what I’m saying is, I CAN’T WAIT FOR SEASON TWO AND I HOPE THERE IS MORE DEV CONTENT!!!
PLEASEE don’t have Dev just be a one off antagonist☹️☹️
The theory that Dev keeps his memories because of his shades (and also his similarities to some other rich kid that was in the original series of whom I forgot his name) is cool, but also awkwarddd— because what does he do with that information?? Like okay buddy, you remember. Now what? He never had the best relationship with Peri in the first place!! I’d prefer if maybe season one went on WITHOUT Irep interfering or at least appearing but not appearing again until the next season, because THEN Dev and Peri could’ve connected at least a little, and Dev could have more realizations about “maybe I don’t need my father’s approval” or something— then in season two when Dev goes on a spiral or something, let’s say his dad ticks him off;
Dev tries to have a heart to heart with his dad after Hazel and Peri push him to,
“I feel like you don’t care about me, and all I want is for you to be proud of me—“
And his dad is like,
“Come back to me when you do something I can be proud of.”
SO THEN he becomes bitter at Hazel and Peri for “making” him go do that, and turns to Irep to take over Fairy World.
Eughhhh but this is a kid’s show after all, and they want to cater to their attention spans so a show that takes a while to fully flesh out their characters would probably go right over some kid’s heads (or not, they could probably become smarter.)
I still love the show, and fanfiction exists for this exact reason—
I guess that’s enough of my Ramb-Lee’s for now, if anyone wants to talk about FOPANW, I’m here😝.
(Dev looks so CUTE in this scene🥺)
Peace!!

I never been this invested in fairly oddparents before. Like I'm so nervous about what's going to happen with Dev and Peri by the end of the season because if they get separated that would be the worst thing for both of them or if Dev gets his memories erased, he won't learn from any of this.
So to distract myself, I'm gonna think of what would happen when this show is renewed for season 2 (and it WILL be if I have anything to say about it!) like:
Peri getting embarrassed by his parents for not acting normal when they're humans in public because it's like winter and they're still in their regular clothes when outside, so he has to poof them up himself.
Dev getting invited to join in on holiday festivities with Hazel's family because we all know that's not gonna happen with Dale.
More time with Hazel, Dev, Jasmine, and Winn as a group.
Even more wacky neighbor shenanigans with Peri involved.
Same, my dear Anon, saaaaame. I remember FOP being one of my favorite shows when I was little (I remember being in elementary school and somehow stumbling upon the first couple seasons online, meaning I could watch it whenever, and to this day I still laugh when I remember the “Where did you get that?”-“Uh…. Internet?” bit, but there’s something so special about these characters I grew up watching and their silly hijinx and sweetheart new godkid getting into serialized shenanigans
I seriously hope we get at least one more season (or even TOH treatment where while the crew is put in the unfair position of having to rush through their story to wrap it up, but at least they get to wrap it up *cries in Infinity Train*)
I want all of the above, especially Dev getting to hang around Hazel’s family and getting exposed to a completely healthy family dynamic, and seeing Hazel, Jasmine, Winn, and Dev as a friend group in O:BT was absolutely delightful (I’m still sad the original show fazed out Chester and AJ over time — give our main character friends and let them keep them!)
Some other potential stories that I’d love to see
Another episode about Hazel’s hair. Diana actually grew on me (metaphorically) by the end and I wouldn’t hate if she became a reoccurring character. Plus it was amazing seeing an episode about a black character’s natural hair without it needing to be A Special Episode. They made that joke about “relaxing” and it almost flew over my head but when I got it I had to pause the episode because of my delighted laughter
An episode where Peri (who finally has his own human disguise) somehow gets roped into solo babysitting Hazel, Dev, Jasmine, and Winn (because for some reason kids really like me and whenever I visit my sister’s family I somehow always end up at an arts and crafts table talking about Ninjago with a bunch of 3-7 year olds and I need Peri to go through the same I Need An Adult — Oh No I Am The Adult emotions)
More Hazel and Antony shenanigans — maybe she visits him at college and wishes she could experience college life herself (knowing the types of jokes this crew likes making, there should be at least one student loans joke that makes you cry as much as it makes you laugh)
For that matter, even if it’s a long shot, I would love an episode that features the Wells Siblings and the Turner-Cosma-Fairywinkle Siblings. One set could have the A plot and the other could have the B plot, or they could all get up to shenanigans together, idc I just know that there are so many obvious parallels between Antony-Hazel and Timmy-Peri (the nearly identical age gap, the close relationship that had a wrench thrown into it when the older sibling grew up and moved away, the way the younger sibling looks up to the older one, etc) that I need to see explored somehow. Plus, maybe we could even get Peri and Antony bonding — since he’s a fairy, the way Peri aged is probably super weird, but developmentally he’s probably close enough to Antony that they could be peers. Give👏Peri👏A👏Friend
Does anybody remember that episode from the original series that was a back door pilot for a Crash Nebula spin off. It was one of my favorites as a kid and I would love if they did something like that with Prime Meridian Love — it could start with Hazel and Dev learning their favorite manga getting an anime adaption and doing everything they can to watch it premiere in English (or the crew could have the majority of the episode in Japanese and even make a sub vs dub joke)
Listen Peri was OP as a baby, and I need them to bring that up somehow. I don’t know, the could have him lose his wand and have to fight whatever the bad guy of the episode is with his bare hands and show off his martial arts skills. I can just picture Dev and Hazel’s reactions and I need to see it and see their faces when they learn he taught himself how to do that as a baby

Yeah, canon Peri and fanon Peri are more or less two completely separate characters. It's a real bummer because the concept of a godparent (particularly someone as famous as Peri) failing to empathize, support, or even get along with their godkid is really fascinating (and tragic) and I would have loved to see more fanworks exploring that.
Yes the fanon version of Peri that starts to connect with Dev too late and is desperately trying to fix things and get his first godkid back is a very fun concept. But we already kind of got that with Juandissimo and Remy. I feel like exploring the canon Peri and Dev combo would be a very unique concept to explore that we didn’t get in the canon show ever.
In the Og show we saw godparents and god kids tended to care about each other and bonded overall okay even if the bond between Cosmo Wanda and Timmy was considered different and weird, the concept of godparents and godkids bonding on some level wasn’t out of the ordinary.
Here however, we see a pair that isn’t bonding. They can’t seem to form a connection despite it seemingly being that Dev was eager to make a connection with Peri while Peri seemed disinterested in forming that bond and only saw Dev as a job nothing more.
Exploring the idea that Peri as an almost celebrity godkid feeling the pressure of the spotlight to be perfect so he keeps his first godkid at arms length despite him desperately needing to be close with some sort of adult figure and it causing a massive rift between them is fascinating.
Peri clearly is struggling with empathizing and connecting with his godkids, part of it seems to be he’s so focused on his “work” he can’t see that what for him is just work is an escape and chance at happiness of some kids. But another aspect that I also haven’t seen explored is the concept that I don’t think Peri can comprehend actually wanting and desperately seeking out a parent’s time and attention. From Peri’s perspective, he feels suffocated by his parents, he turned off his wands tracking because, as he put it, his parents are too clingy. They suffocate him with love and affection, so the concept of a parent being emotionally distant and neglectful is a foreign concept to him.
So I could see when they first met and after the camera fades to black Dev might get a little clingy, he’s lost his first and best friend and is starting on the path to realizing his dad will never love him and thus latches onto what feels like a gift from the universe itself to make things easier and that potentially sets off Peri and he pushes Dev away. It’s easy to see why both would react the way they do, while it also being the worst thing they both could do on a first impression. Obviously we don’t know if things went down this way, I’m just throwing out ideas based on what we see as their first meeting and when we see them next together.
Something went very wrong and based on these two characters I can see Dev initially coming off to “clingy” for Peri and making him panic and think of his parents too much and kind of trying to push him away causing Dev to completely shut down emotionally from being “rejected” once again in a very vulnerable moment. Either way things go from an exciting and hopeful meeting to a very tense and unhappy relationship.
Peri seems content to ditch Dev every chance he gets and is very inattentive to him and his needs and Dev has accepted Peri won’t be their for him when he needs it which unfortunately likely reminds him too much of his dad. I’ve said it a few times but I’ll say it again, I can see some similarities in Peri and Dale in both are very obsessed with their work and both think material things can make things better when they can’t always fix things. It further adds to the tragedy of them being paired as Godparent and Godkid and how ill suited they are for one another.
For a kid like Chester for example whose emotional needs are being well met overall and more has material needs that need to be met like having some food insecurity, a godparent like Peri would work just fine. He’s happy to grant wishes and a kid like Chester might just ask for material things to fill in what he’s missing to live comfortably.
For a kid like Dev though who can already get whatever he wants whenever he wants, he needs a pair more like Coswan who can connect and give love to a kid who is alone and hurting. It’s not the wish granting Dev needed or I think was even excited about, he just needed someone to care and not ditch him the second things got a little difficult with him.
The concept of a godparent terrible at empathizing and connecting with a kid whose only real need is a real connection is a very painful and interesting concept to explore, but Peri is kind of becoming the Tumblr sexy man and people aren’t necessarily interested in exploring him being wrong about something.
And thing that also makes this a fascinating dynamic to explore is this isn’t just Peri’s fault, he’s clearly being taught that rapid fire wish granting is how to be a good godparent, and thought if he just pushed for wishes and granted them enough it would somehow help Dev. Exploring how the fairy system isn’t properly set up to help kids like Dev who are deeply hurting and need companionship more then anything else adds a layer of pain and complexity to the entire situation which I think could be really fun (and tragic) to explore.
How we even got here is an interesting concept because we know the fairy council knows Timmy cared far more about the companionship from Cosmo and Wanda then the wish aspect, but somehow despite this they’ve seemingly moved away from connections and companionship and pushing wish granting solely which wouldn’t necessarily be what a lot of kids need.
I think I accidentally talked my way into a small fic idea. Dang it.

Thoughts b4 bed, this...got ridiculously long..SKIP TOWARDS THE END for my Peri and Dev idea I'd like to personally see if you don't care about my godparenting ramble. 💖 (I marked it with a star for easy spotting.)
Godparenting is self harm (in certain situations). You CANNOT pair a fairy, who has basic empathy, with a child who is being neglected and/or abused, and expect them to NOT get attached or to love them.
Cosmo and Wanda loved Timmy. They were his parents!!
Juandissimo loved Remy. He couldn't move on from him.
It's also horrible for the kids when they get a fairy who doesn't develop that parental/guardian relationship.
Peri failed Dev because he remained distant and overly professional. (I'm not saying he didn't care, that's a whole other debate. I'm just saying he was not what Dev needed. Dev needed a Cosmo, Wanda, or Juandissimo.)
I'm sure other fairies failed kids in similar situations, maybe even worse, because they didn't want to fall into that emotional trap. It's BEYOND hard not to. You would have to be extremely hardened, dissociated, or heartless in order to do that.
At least the kids get to forget their failed experience.
Fairies have to remember. They have to remember for the rest of their lives that they either:
A) Got bonded with a kid and had to say goodbye, a type of goodbye that's honestly like a funeral. You will never see each other again (except in passing. But you can't contact them.) The loss and yearning would be too much for anyone.
B) Have to remember that they couldn't bond with the kid and thus failed them. They failed that neglected/abused child. That child had to grow up with their abuse without any escapism because you had to remain professional and throw away your whimsy. I'm CONVINCED Peri is NOT the only fairy to be annoying about "da rules". I'm actually pretty sure that's the NORM because of how all the fairies reacted to Cosmo and Wanda with Timmy.
Going into fairy godparenting, knowing that you could come out with either outcome, is self harm to me, (SH is doing anything that you KNOW will hurt you physically or emotionally, it can be any number of things! JS this here because people have a VERY narrow view about what counts as SH!) and really makes me overthink about like...
Fairy mental health? How does fairy therapy look like for these situations? I kind of envision it similar to ppl IRL who work with abused kids need therapy, yet they keep going. They keep moving on and helping kids (or doing their best to).
⭐️All this to say my idea for Peri and Dev:
I would love for Peri to learn from his situation with Dev and why it didn't work. I know ppl want them to get back together asap, but tbh I think a slow burn would work best, for Peri's mental health. I think Peri should shadow his parents and Hazel for a bit, and learn/see how they do things, including how they interact with kids. I think Peri needs some self reflection first.
My idea is this:
Peri shadows his parents for awhile and does some self reflection. While he shadows his parents, he watches Dev from afar. Not like, intently like some ppl HC, just in passing. Like Dev will interact with Hazel and Peri will make passing remarks like "he's a good kid", (if him and Hazel are getting along) or "oh, Dev.." (if he does smth rude to Hazel)
Eventually, smth happens to Dev that finally seals it for Peri, he has already been meditating on everything for awhile, but whatever happens to Dev is the final straw. (I wonder what happens??) And he gets permission to be Devs godparent again and then bursts in to save Dev!
(this would all happen maybe thruout the whole season, and this event would happen at the ending of S2? Ik ppl would be impatient for that, but!! I think it would work best AND be a rlly satisfying season conclusion!!) and a rlly good start for S3 (iiiif we got all that lmao, I'm being VERY hopeful that we get at least 3-4 seasons! which I shouldn't when S2 is still up in the air lol. oh well. I can dream.)
Uuuh. Yeah. IDk just some thoughts I've had. Sorry this was so long. If you read it then wow! I'm shocked haha. 💖 (bonus points if u read the tags hahaha)
goodnight. 💖💖
#dont feel obligated to read i just have brainworms#fop a new wish#dev dimmadome#fop anw#fop peri#fairly oddparents#personal#long#biiiig ramble#i want them to be happy!!! but i rlly think a lot needs to happen FIRST#im impatient too dw but letting peri ruminate needs to happen#i love peri but he just did not do a good job#and ik its prolly bc he didnt wanna get attached#maybe bc of timmy seperation#or bc he was always held in high standards and didnt wanna dissapoint everyone#either way he was not good imho#which tbh is good!!#it makes him complex and gives him room to grow for later eps!!!#makes things more interesting and makes a lotta fun possibilites!!#but yeah#blablabla

Holy ok ok ok so I just read your dev having trouble with being around Cosmo and Wanda but I bring you a different approach. What if he is mad at them! Trying to shift some of this huge amount of guilt because at least he went to Peri! His own parents left him alone to die. (I can’t remember if you said if they actually knew where he was or not)
Oh lordy oh ok gewze imagine Dev having this moment of realising he has something in common with Peri because he sees his parents as neglecting him. How sad would that make Dev? To realise how much guff he gave Peri cause he thought Peri couldnt relate at all. So he pushed him away but then thinking how wrong he was and how Peri did understand. (Even though we know cosmo and wanda are nothing like Dale and really did love Peri just saw a different priority) but the potent agnst of Dev having a miss understanding of it. Everytime Peri tries to deny it Dev relates. Everytime Cosmo and Wanda gush over Peri makes Dev fume because he sees it as all a show. He thinks he knows how it is behind closed doors. Even if hes actually wrong. It could really help them bond. Until Dev finally sees hes wrong and it’s gonna make a huge rift between them as he blames Peri for pretending to have a bad relationship with his parents. Probably saying it was to “mock” Dev or something.
On another note. Do you think Peri would actually be upset that his parents decided to save fairyworld instead? Maybe rationally he tells himself it was the better choice. That it was what ended up bringing him back. It was what saved all the other fairies who take priority. Hes just one guy. But thats still gonna hurt. Knowing your own parents can and have picked the masses over you. Knowing you arent worth the world to them. Of course he wouldnt actually expect them to choose him but maybe deep down he wanted them to? Idk im loosing it cause I just got off ruff 12hr shift at work lol.
Hope this isnt too off the money for your au I just really enjoy angst
~hollys fairy hell
[AU info here!]
OOOOHHH... THIS IS INTERESTING. WHILE C&W DIDN'T KNOW THAT PERI DIED, DEV BEING ANGRY BECAUSE OF THAT IS... OUGH. I think it DOES check out, actually. Feeling angry that they didn't even KNOW their son died, the blame being shifted to help ease the guilt... IT MAKES SENSE, AND IT'S IN CHARACTER.
He's seen their relationship before, and he knows that they're all such a genuinely happy family, and that makes him feel not ONLY GUILTIER, but MORE FRUSTRATED, MORE ANGRY. Their own son DIED, in front of HIM, and they DON'T EVEN KNOW.
HEAR ME OUT... DEV NOT KNOWING THAT C&W DON'T KNOW UNTIL PERI MENTIONS IT. Him assuming that they ALREADY told their parents, and that's why he was absent for a few days. THE GUILT SHIFTING INTO A MISDIRECTED ANGER ONCE PERI MENTIONS THAT THEY DON'T KNOW AND THAT THEY WANT TO KEEP IT FROM THEM... of COURSE, the guilt is still there, but it blends in with the other feelings and it's a Very Complicated Feeling Soup.
THE MISUNDERSTANDING IDEA IS NEAT... AND IN-CHARACTER. I don't know for SURE how I'd implement it [because my brain is very picky about the things I add, and I am too...], make it go, and ALL those good, delicious, juicy things, BUT BUT it will go on the backburner of thoughts. Specifics would probably just come to me randomly at 2 am like they have been lately gHDLSHSLHD 😭
WITH THE LAST PART... PERI DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED SPECIFICALLY. He was DEAD, after all, and SURE, he'd probably find out via things being talked about, BUT, GENERALLY, I DON'T THINK THEY ADDRESS OR THINK ABOUT THOSE THINGS.
Hazel's Wish fixed EVERYTHING that happened in the episode, and I talk about how the whole Millio Wishes Thing worked here, actually! I have a vague idea of how things go with Peri after they come back, but I don't have any set in stone ideas yet/there's no established timeline. I think... THEY don't even know at first, they're just confused at the fuzzy gaps in their memory and then, once they get a closer look at themself and the GHOST thing happens [when they're alone] and all that... THEN they put details together and realize they They Fucking Died.
WHICH... PERI DOESN'T UNPACK THAT. NOT MUCH, ANYWAY. The finale ends as usual, with the motorcycles and all that— that's BEFORE he realizes there might be something off. DO YOU GET ME... LIKE...
THE ENDING ESTABLISHES THAT THINGS ARE OK AND NORMAL BUT THEN AFTER THE EPISODE, THEY GO BACK TO THEIR HOUSE/ROOM/C&W'S HOUSE [ALONE] AND THEN THAT IS WHEN HE KIND OF REALIZES HE FEELS OFF AND WEIRD. AND... OUGH. YEAH.
SORRY I'M... GETTING OFF TRACK. I don't think he'd be upset, not in that way, at least, given the circumstances. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS MAKES SENSE OR IF IT'S JUST WORD SOUP I'M SO SORRY I JUST WOKE UP LIKE AN HOUR AGO. I am throwing words at the wall and hoping they make sense HDJDDGKDDUI 😭

Can you do a NSFW one shot thing with Peri and a female human lover? I have a thing for supernatural and forbidden romances.
Here you go anon, sorry for the wait!! I hope you like it 🩷
Story under cut!
˖⁺‧₊˚✦
>>AO3
Summary:
Peri thought it was time he reveal a secret he was keeping away from you.
[Peri/Human!Fem!Reader]
[NSFW]
[Peri POV]
To Peri, you were beautiful, absolutely breathtaking. At first, when he first noticed Dev's new teacher, he didn't really bat an eye or look twice. But the more he saw you and listened to you… he sort of just got… a little curious? He didn't know what it was about you that drew him to you at first.
From listening to you during the children classes, to seeing you outside of school. He found himself taking those small opportunities he had to use his human form to approach you out of curiosity. But it was done out of secrecy. You didn't know he was a fairy and his parents didn't know he was secretly going out of his way to spend time with a human.
You were funny, charming, your sunshine-y attitude drew him in like a moth to a flame. He was absolutely smitten with you and that was a dangerous feeling. Something he found himself not minding at all, much to his.
Peri found himself using his magic for you. You were thirsty and needed water? You needed a new number two pencil? Missing chalk? Maybe you were about to trip over air or a rock? No, problem!
However, you… didn't know what he truly was. It gave him anxiety just thinking about how you would react!?
Fairies don't form romantic relationships with humans. If humans knew the existence of Fairies, it could spell trouble. They were only assigned to grant some miserable child their wishes. Whatever they wanted. As long as it was within the laws of Da Rules.
Since his… unemployment, he had some free time to spend with you that he didn't have before.
Sitting by the lake with you, exchanging small smiles and whispers. Soon became sweet caresses where he felt lighter than a cloud. Your sweet kisses practically sent him to fairy heaven.
As your relationship grows, the more anxious he was about telling you the truth.
Peri knew he had to, before it could go any further. He just didn't know what to do if you rejected him.
It had took him a month of thinking before he decided to do it. If he wanted a relationship with you, he had to tell you the truth! Even if he was shaking in his oxford shoes standing at your front door.
Peri knocks on your door and he stands there, nervous, until you open the door revealing that smile he loves so much. You were dressed casually in your cardigan, looking beautiful as ever.
-- [Your POV]
"Peri! Hey, I didn't know you were coming. Come in!" you said, smiling happily as you urged him inside.
"Sorry for showing up so suddenly." Peri said.
"It's fine, I was just about to relax after grading kids school work." you reassured, holding his hand as you both walk into the living room. You did have the television on for some noise, the local news was playing on it. You sit down with Peri.
"Oh, okay, sounds… fun?" he smiled.
You let out a breathy laugh, "Maybe."
You both laugh a little, but his smile seemed… a little off. As you both talked, at times he didn't really seem as into the conversation. As if his thoughts were elsewhere.
"Peri… is everything okay?" You asked, your tone concerned.
"Umm, why do you ask?" Peri asked nervously.
"Well, you seem… a little off. Are you okay, Peri?"
You notice him hesitate.
"Peri?" you repeat softly, placing a hand on his hand. He takes a deep breathe and exhales. Peri grabs your hand to hold it in his own as he adjusts himself on the couch to face you.
"I… I have something, I need to ask you." Peri starts, his gaze holding your own. "Do you… believe in fairies?"
Now that was an unexpected question to ask, you thought, frowning a little. "Do I believe in fairies? I… guess I used to love reading the mythology about them. I even dressed up as one as a kid for Halloween." you chuckled fondly at the memory. "But, what about them?"
Peri's expression softens a little, "That's cute… umm, I mean--" Peri laughed nervously, bringing a smile to your face. "An-Anyway, I…I have something to tell you. Something, I've been keeping this secret for awhile because, I don't want to lose you. And I can't keep hiding this when I care about you so much."
A confused frown pull at your lips, "Hiding, what?"
"Promise me, you won't freak out?" Peri asked.
"Peri, what--"
"Promise me, please, honey." Peri repeats, a little firmer this time.
"Okay, I promise! What's going on, Peri??" You questioned, feeling worried.
He seems like he was debating with himself before letting out a resigned sigh. "I'm… a fairy. A Fairy God Parent."
You blink from surprise, feeling very confused. "You're a fairy? But…"
Peri gives a half-hearted smile as right before your eyes, you notice a glowing crown above his head and… w--were those wings?!
His wings shimmered in the light, glitter sparkled from his transparent wings.
Peri holds out his hand to the side and a cane appears in his hand with a small globe on top holding a yellow, glowing, star behind the glass.
Mesmerized, you tentatively reach a hand out towards the glass and he allows you to touch it; feeling the warmth come from it. "This… is my wand." Peri murmured.
You look at him, you were dealing with a lot of emotions. Surprise, shock, if not a bit of excitement from knowing fairies actually existed. And your boyfriend was one.
"Y--You're a fairy? I… I'm so shocked." You said.
"I-In a bad way…?" Peri asked, nervously.
"No, a good way. This is so… I don't know, considering how I used to love fairies as a kid and now I'm finding out they exist-- and you're one, and also my boyfriend and--!" You take a deep breath, noticing how he smiled, amused at you in the midst of your excited rambling. "I'm so amazed. Sorry."
Peri chuckled, settling his cane down on the ground, leaning forward to you. His face is near yours. "It's okay. I think it's cute how excited you are." he teased, making heat bloom in your cheeks. "Better than you being scared of me."
"But, wait… why me?" you asked, and his expression softens. "Why did you approach me?"
"When I first saw you, I didn't really… feel anything at first. I, started getting curious about you and started realizing I like a lot of things about you. Your smile, your eyes, the way how you're so kind and warm, how your eyes brighten when you're excited, the way you … I.. I guess I'm rambling too." Peri joked, while your heart, your chest swell with emotions. "I guess I started wanting some of that warmth for myself. You make me feel so… calm."
The purple fairy, bumps his forehead against yours, long lashes flutter at you. "The moment you said my name, I knew I was in trouble."
"Oh, Peri…" you smiled softly at the sincerity and affection in his words. Hands moving up to cup his face in your own.
Peri sighs as he leans into your touch. "No one can find out we exist. As a God Parent, my job is to grant wishes for miserable children. Things happen and now I'm… not working right now. But, I visit this realm to see you." Peri said, his voice in a whisper. "No one knows I do this. I'm not even supposed to be doing this. Falling for a human…"
Your heart races from the look in his eyes.
"I wouldn't want you to get in trouble because of me--"
"No, it's okay! This is fine, just, no one can find out about this. That Fairies exist and that… you know. If the Fairy Court finds out, you could lose your memory." Peri said, his eyebrows pinches up in worry. "And, I don't want to lose you." his voice filled with emotion.
You swallow back a lump on your throat at the tone of his voice. "I won't tell anyone about this. About what you are. I don't want to lose you either…" you smiled, reassuringly.
Peri relaxes his eyes sparkling with emotions in them. Something you can identify as, love.
"Thank you," Peri sighed, relieved.
Peri lets his cane rest on the coffee table with a tap. He then pulls you in by the waist to wrap you up into a warm hug and your arms rest around his shoulders.
You sit there, enjoying the comforting hug from your fairy boyfriend, his warm vanilla scent is comforting to you.
Your eyes watch his wings flutter a little, small fairy dust fall from them. You got a little curious, moving your hand to brush against one under your fingertips. The texture was smooth and feel the same as what a bird's feather would feel. They flinch from your touch and you feel Peri stiffens.
Worried, you move your fingers away, "I-I'm sorry, are they sensitive?"
"Y-Yes. Very. Um… please don't pull them," Peri said nervously.
"I won't."
"I don't mind if you touch them, but, be gentle." Peri's arms around your tighten a little. "Please."
You nod as you reach a hand out again to gently run your fingers across a part of his wing, fascinated and mesmerized by fairy wings. You feel him shiver from your touch and they flutter.
Peri shifts in your arms before you feel his warm breath on your neck.
"Peri?" you feel his lips press against your neck. A slight gasp escapes from your lips when he nibbled on your neck.
"I think… I like how you touch my wings." Peri murmured, lips press chastely against your skin."You're just so gentle with them, it feels surprisingly… good?"
You were guided down to the couch on your back and him above you, his lips continue their descent to your collar bones to press soft kisses against the exposed part of your chest. You can feel heat shoot down to the spot between your legs.
"So pretty," Peri continued as his his begin to wander to the edge of your shirt. His fingers slip a bit under your shirt and you shiver when you feel him brush against your skin.
Peri's violet eyes find yours and you can see a tint of lust in them.
Wait, did this mean you both were going to… make love?
You were a little nervous since it's been awhile, did you even have protection?! You thought as Peri's hands roam your sides. "Um, Peri?"
"Hm?" he mumbled into your neck.
"Are we about to…?"
"…I want to." Peri said, he moved up a bit so he was hovering above you. He gives him a nervous look. "D-Do you want to? We don't have to yet if you're not ready."
You think for a moment. You have been dating for almost seven months and the only thing you both did was make out with touching, here and there. But you both never attempted to cross that line before, even if you were tempted to toe that line.
Now that he wanted to? You give away to your desire to be closer to the fairy. You nod, caressing his cheeks.
"Yes, I do." you answered, smiling up at him. "But, um, do you have any protection…?"
Peri blinks, before he realized what you mean. "OH! Right, humans use those small plastic things right?"
Peri sits up to grab his wand and a few square shape condoms appears in his hand. "I also… take a human equivalent birth control pill, so…"
"Wait, you take that?"
He looks a little flustered.
"I don't know how it would even work, with you being human and all, but we're sort of like sea horses?"
Seahorses…. oh?
"So you… would get pregnant?"
"Again, it's between fairies, I don't know how it would work with a human since you're not a fairy. But, don't worry it'll be okay with protection!" Then he puts his cane away to lean forward to your face again, a sultry look on his face. "Now, where were we?" he smirked.
You giggled before he press his lips against yours, gently at first. But as his hands started roaming his kiss grew more heated and his tongue passes through your gasping lips.
Peri's hands found purchase on your bra clad breasts and began kneading them. Heat pools in your stomach. You moan into the kiss before you both part and you help him with removing your cardigan and then your shirt as you fumble your fingers with unbuttoning his lavender colored shirt. Your lips meet again a few times during this while you undressed each other.
With your pants thrown to the side, you reach to unbuckle his, but he stops your hands. You give him a questioning look. Did he not want it?
"I…not here." Peri stuttered, he instead places your hands on his shoulders before he gathers you up by your thighs and he lifts you up. Surprised, you immediately wrap your legs and arms around him tightly.
The purple fairy carries you to your bedroom down the hall. You were laid down on your bed, and he flicks the lamp on in the dark room. The orange light illuminates his slim form.
The purple condoms he had were put on the side table for later and he leans down to kiss you again.
With him between your legs, he rolls hips into yours, making you feel how much he needed you. A gasp escapes you at each roll of his hips and his hands hold firmly onto yours.
"A-Are you sure you want this?" Peri repeats his question, his heated gaze on you. You can see vulnerability in his violet eyes mixed with desire, for you.
"Yes, I do want you, you dummy." you smiled, leaning up to press a soft kiss against his lips. Something he eagerly returned, taking your breath away.
"You're so beautiful." Peri murmured into your ear, once you parted. "So soft, and warm. When I first saw you, I should have known I would be in trouble. You're just too charming of a human…"
Peri grabs your hands to settle them on his belt, silently giving you permission. So you begin unbuckling his pants while he nibbles and licks at your neck.
You were… nervous but excited, when his pants were unbuckled and unzipped. He moves to stand up and take off his shoes, his pants, along with his pastel blue boxers revealing his harden arousal.
It was pretty… it was nicely thick and tilted slightly to the right. It was big, and his tip was flushed red. You were practically drooling from looking at it maybe next time he would let you put your mouth on it. Peri blushes brightly from your attention and he clears his throat.
Peri back on you again and he helps you take off both your bra and underwear, tossing them to the side.
Peri smirked at you before he starts kissing down from your neck to your breasts. You watch him bring a nipple into his mouth and you let out a soft moan, arching your back up to him as he sucked and nibbled on your breast and knead the other. He does the same to the other one.
More heat shoots down below, from his caresses and the way he touches you was driving you crazy. "Peri…" you panted, in which he responds with a hum before his lips let go of your breast with a wet pop.
The swirly purple haired fairy, teasingly bats his eyelashes up at you as he kisses down lower, to your stomach down to your thigh. Very close to the area you want him to touch so badly.
He lifts your legs over his shoulders and he watches you as he kisses your thigh and slides his lips down inching closer to your throbbing entrance. You whine, "Peri, please."
"I know, I know, honey… I'm going to make you feel so good." Peri said, his voice was low and seductive.
You feel his warm breath fans over you before you feel his tongue and you gasp. Your hands are grabbing tightly at your bed sheets.
You feel his fingers grab your thighs tightly as his tongue slips in, sending pleasure through your veins as his tongue delved in deeper. You feel him nibbling and sucking as his tongue swirl around, he pulls you in closer as he gives a muffled moan.
Your heavy breathing and moans fill the room. Your thighs clench around his head as he continues to pleasure you.
"P…Peri, please!" you begged, hands grabbing at his swirly hair. Your look down, his eyes watched you underneath long lashes with darkened lust. Your breathing quickens as he starts using his fingers now on you, each digit pushes into you with his tongue, working to push you over that edge. Your body stiffens as that tightening feeling in you grows tighter.
"..Peri!"
He thrusts his fingers faster.
"PERI!"
When his fingers hit that spot, you cried tugging at his hair and before you knew it, your body shudders as you're hit with a wave of pleasure. Your thighs clench down as you're coming fast. You can feel Peri help you ride it out until you were lying flat back on the bed; panting heavily. The after glow in your mind as you try to calm down from the high which was euphoria.
Peri chuckled putting your legs down from his shoulders. You look up at him just as he was done cleaning himself and he lean over you to gently kiss you, making you taste yourself. "Are you okay, honey?" Peri asked softly, slight concern in his voice.
"I-I'm okay, that… that was amazing." you murmured, smiling dazedly at him. He smiles back, he cups your head to nuzzle his nose against yours.
"You did so good for me, my love… so, so good." he whispered affectionately, his lips meet yours briefly. "Do you want more? We can always stop here…"
You let out a small chuckle, "Of course I want more. I want you, my love." you whispered back. You see a shimmer of love in his eyes at your words, his wings flutter happily. He kisses you again before he takes a moment to reach over to your side table to pick up a condom and you sit up to help him open it. "Do you know how to use one?"
"Uh… kind of." Peri said, flustered. "I've seen books.
You let out a surprise giggled. "Wait, you were reading books?"
"Don't laugh at me, I've never… been with a human before. It's not that much different from us fairies." Peri admitted, embrassed, you can tell he was getting a little upset from your teasing so you stopped.
"Okay, I'm sorry, baby. I didn't mean to tease you so much." You reassured, kissing him and he reluctantly calms down. "Do you want me to help you?"
Peri sits there, quiet for a second before nodding. "No, I got it."
You watch him, with a little guidance from you, puts the condom on his arousal. He then guides you back down on the bed, a determined look in his eyes. There was slight fear in them as well, but you whisper words to comfort him. You can tell he didn't want to mess up.
Once he positions his cock between your legs, you wrap your arms and legs around him. You feel him poke your entrance and you hold onto him in anticipation before he begins sliding in. Peri lets out a gasp, his hands quickly grab onto your hips, and his breathing quickens as he continues to push his way in. When he was fully in, he paused, his eyes clenched tight as he pants, his wings twitches. He continues to hold himself as you adjust to his size.
"Peri…?" you murmured, you watch his expression and his eyes open, half lidded and glazed over. "Are you okay?"
"This feels…" Peri trails off, cheeks turn redder. "You feel…" Peri pulls back a little and thrust his hips slowly. You both gasp softly from the feel of him sliding against your walls.
Peri begin moving his hips in slow, tantalizing thrust, his hands hold your hips firmly as he moves. Each thrust, sending pleasure through you. His head buries itself in between your neck and shoulder as he loses himself in you. "Peri..!" you moan.
"Y-You feel so good, darling. I love this, I love being inside you a-and---!" Peri lets out a deep moan, when you move your hips with his. "I don't think I would mind d-doing this again with you. You feel so warm…!"
Peri pace speeds up and he's now pounding you into the creaking bed. His moans grow loud, cries of your name hit the wall, repeatedly, babbling of how good you feel, how much he needed you. You didn't know he was this vocal, he was really enjoying this. Your cries weren't as loud as his. He leaves wet kisses over your neck as his breathing grows ragged.
You were lucky you lived alone.
When he found that one spot within you he continued to do so, drawing out louder moans from you. His wings flutter again, as if pleased. The glow from his golden crown flickers.
Soon, your body stiffens and you see white as you're coming hard. Pleasure washes over you in waves. As you clench down, Peri follows after moaning your name.
He continues his thrusting to linger on the feeling before finally it was over. Peri and you were breathing hard as he collapsed on you.
After a moment of catching your breaths, Peri carefully slides himself out from you. He takes off the used condom to tie it up and put it on the floor to toss away later. Peri then lies down beside you and pulls your trembling body into his.
You calm down as you lie in his arms and sigh lovingly. Feeling strangely rejuvenated and loved.
"That was…" Peri murmured.
"Good?"
"Amazing." Peri kisses your head.
You hummed, wrapping your arm around his side. "No, you were amazing."
"Noo, you." Peri cooed.
"Shush." you giggled.
It was silent for a moment.
"You… you really make me feel happy." Peri said, softly, his voice filled with affection for you. "I've never felt this way for anyone before. I don't think you realize how happy you make me and I dont want to lose you."
"I love you." Peri whispered, hiding his face in your hair. "I love you…"
You were filled with happiness, the lightness in your chest swells from his confession. You were happy, but your heart also ached hearing the crack in his voice. He was crying.
"Oh, Peri." You snuggle closer to the fairy and he holds onto you tightly. "I love you too." you murmured into his neck.
You continue to hold onto him as he silently cries.
Soon he calms down.
You asked him if he wanted to shower with you before going to sleep and he agreed. You both took a shower and he used his wand to clean up your bedding and your room.
You both now lie comfortably on the bed. Peri brings the blanket up over you two and he cuddles with you under the covers in his human form now. It was easier to sleep while hiding his wings and crown.
Peri sleepily kisses your forehead, "Good night, darling."
You drift off to blissful sleep.

Some more thoughts after watching every episode up until “The Haunting of Wells House” (except for "The Wellsington Hotellsington" bc it’s not available at the totally legal place I was watching). Spoilers for the whole show (1.4k words below):
- Seeing people having squirrels in their pants for Peri is actually funnier now bc if I wasn’t aroace (my lack of attraction extends to fictional characters, makes hanging out in some fandoms quite the experience) I’d totally have some of those squirrels but for Cosmo. The way he’s written in this show is just so GOOD!
He’s still an idiot but that doesn’t stop him from being a functioning adult, thus making him incredibly endearing. Also love the malewife energy, and on that note you can understand from their (absolutely adorable) interactions why Wanda loves him. This show really fixed Cosmo and I couldn’t be happier about it!
- Speaking of dorky men, huge fan of Hazel’s dad Marcus! And I love how he’s actually a very clever guy who’s just eccentric. Also love how the ending of the Cupid episode is literally him pulling the bad bitch by being autistic. He’s a fun character I like him! And on that note Angela’s great as well!
- Something interesting I noticed while watching in order is that Hazel and Dev aren’t actually that close, which I actually like because it makes their arguments feel a lot more natural. Like don’t get me wrong they are friends and do care for each other (on that note love seeing Dev put himself at risk to protect her! Twice! Even after doing so the first time almost cost their friendship in his eyes! Good way to show there’s good in him!) but they don’t hang out at school or anything, on top of their relationship starting on a bad note due to Dev bullying Hazel.
So when Hazel gets mad at him at the end of the Founder’s Day episode and refuses to listen to him, it works because it’s still very early in their friendship. Same with the ending of Dev’s birthday. Idk, I really like how they approach this dynamic!
- And speaking of Hazel I really like that one of her bigger flaws is having a temper. I think it’s because it works with her being a nice person who tries to help others (in other words it’s not like she was selfish or something which could conflict with her being meant to be a good kind person using her wishes for others, her anger gives her a flaw without conflicting with her good traits).
Or maybe it’s because as an autistic person with some anger issues, I can relate to her idk. Like when her friends don’t want to go to her book club bc there’s a dance that night, or wanting the game with her brother to be the same, or again the ending of Founder’s Day. Basically when her schedule is thrown off or things are changing or people are acting in a way that doesn’t make sense to her.
-Spoilers for season finale synopsis After watching Founder’s Day I really enjoy Dale as a villain, which really makes me hope for a season 2, since from what I’ve heard the S1 finale will focus on the anti-fairies meaning it’s probably best Dale has a minimal role in said finale (if not him not even showing up). Like in order for everything to have proper pacing and be satisfying, the best would likely be to focus the finale solely on the fairy stuff and keep Dale as a villain for S2.
Also, I’m excepting the season to end with Dev realizing how far down he’s gone and starting to try becoming a better person and rebuild his friendship with Hazel, which could create some very good conflict with an ongoing S2 plot of Dale trying to figure out Hazel. Or on the opposite end if the kid continues as an antagonist, him helping his dad with it.
- On a more negative note I’m really not a fan of Hazel’s friends, mostly because they don’t exactly have much of a personality. Jasmine is a nice girl who sometimes brings up singing. Winn is the cool one with purple hair and pronouns and who likes skating. That’s kind of it.
- I’m also not really into the whole thing with some wishes bringing up other random magical creatures like Father Time, Cupid, the Music Fairy or Mother Nature. Idk, the idea of expanding Fairy’s World is pretty cool, but I like it more when the story is grounded within our main characters I guess? Can’t really explain it well right now but I’m just not a fan of that.
And yes I know Cupid was in the og show but here the whole love competition doesn’t sit right with me, like why having this kind of beef with a 10 years old over one wish (and that’s not getting into the whole “two characters seeing a third one as a prize to be won” shit this episode is based on)?
- Not sure which episode is my favorite so far. Either one of the 20 minutes long ones (first episode, Founder’s Day, Dev’s birthday) bc they have the best character moments or “Lost in Fairy World” bc I’m obsessed with the Fairywinkle-Cosma family dynamic. I think it’s a tie between “Fly” and “Lost and Founder’s Day”. 🤔
- Least favorite is probably “Dig a Little Deeper”, with “A Dinosaur in Dimmadelphia” in second place. The difference for me is that the dino one is just plain boring while the underground one is badly written all around (Cosmo and Wanda losing their wand in the stupidest way, the rock people not being interesting at all, I usually like puns but those ones were painful especially at the very end). The only thing I liked about this episode is Hazel talking about her passion for rocks, which is brought up in other much better episodes so yeah...
- I’m not going to make another post about Peri and Dev’s relationship but I just wanted to say something about “Best Of Luck”. Haven’t seen the episode past a few clips but from the looks of it Peri fucked up very badly here!
He has an argument with Dev in which he acts incredibly immature (reminder that Peri is the adult in this relationship), actually quits the job and only comes back bc he didn’t give his notice, and upon coming back just laughs in Irep’s face and low-key makes it more about one-upping Irep than taking care of Dev, on that note he caused Dev to feel at the top of the world with Irep only to have it all taken away (apparently he knew Irep was waiting for an opportunity to strike? Meaning he has a bit of responsibility in Dev losing his wishes here), and by the end Peri’s chilling with his parents while ignoring his kid going through it.
There’s also no telling if Peri’s going to resent Dev for trying to kill his parents, since we know from his admission of spying on Dev (+ how relieved he sounds when hugging Cosmo and Wanda) that he very likely saw it happen.
And don’t get me wrong, I love Peri’s character including how flawed he is and how difficult his relationship with Dev is, but yeah there’s no denying that he completely fucked up with this one. Literally couldn’t have done worse.
That actually reminds me of a Tumblr post describing Peri as considering Dev to be nothing more than a job to do, and I disagreed with this stance up until this episode. Because yeah, in “Best Of Luck”, Peri absolutely treats Dev as a job rather than a troubled kid in need of guidance. And again, I still love Peri’s character, but he’s really not doing his job well here.
Also him being able to just up and leave the kid like that probably doesn’t help Dev’s daddy issues. Kid needs stability, including an adult he knows loves him unconditionally and won’t walk out on him the second things get difficult.
- Last random thing since I mention at the end of the og post Peri crashing at his parents’ house after his argument with Dev: I saw screenshots from yesterday’s episode (the puberty one) and seeing Peri at what is obviously Comso and Wanda’s house makes me happy. Depending if they reference other episodes or not in it, I could actually see the puberty episode taking place right after the birthday one and before “Best Of Luck”, hence why Peri is at his parents’.
So this was supposed to be part of my other fop post but it got way too long (both posts did tbh) and is a different topic than the other one. So yeah here’s a bunch of random thoughts about the show in general from what I’ve seen of it. For context I’ve only seen the first 4-5 episodes + “Battle of the Dimmsonian” + the Cosmo-Wanda-Peri scenes in “Lost in Fairy World” and “Operation: Birthday Takeback”.
SPOILERS for “Operation: Birthday Takeback” for the last three dashes (2.4k words below):
- Putting it in first since it’s still related to Peri but I’m pretty amused by the whole “Tumblr sexyman” situation. I mean, less than two weeks ago all canon pics we had of him were baby pics. It’s the same deal when I see people call him a father figure to Dev, I can’t help but be like “wdym father figure? He’s barely an adult! He’s too young!”
It’s like imagine you have a neighbor who have a baby when you’re 9-10, then they move out and 20 years later you meet their kid as an adult. You can clearly tell they’re an adult and treat them as such but also it’s a bit weird bc your last and only memories of them were of a baby. Idk, I see Peri’s character as an adult but also he’s still a bit of a kid, you know? I feel like I explain this better in the other post tbh.
- In retrospect it’s also very funny to see how, when people talk about the decline of fop, they point at the inclusion of the new characters, including Poof. Yet look where we are now! If you thought the baby was the problem, apologize to him, now! /j
But yeah more seriously, personally I never minded Poof. He was definitely a useless addition, like outside of the handful of episodes focused on him he mostly just stands there looking at the other characters, but he was also a cute baby, so I’ve always been fine with him being around. He’s a useless but inoffensive addition, and I think the decline of the show around that time had less to do with him and more to do with the writing as a whole.
- Last thing about Peri before moving on to the show in general, which tbh I could've put in the other post: I've seen people talk about the idea of Hazel and Dev switching fairies and I kind of agree with it.
Not only because Cosmo and Wanda have the experience needed to help a kid like Dev (though it wouldn't be all sunshine and rainbows) while Hazel's situation is easier for Peri, but also it's worth noting that Dev needs a parental figure, which Cosmo and Wanda can be, while Hazel misses her older brother, who Peri is around the same age of. Idk, I feel like this could work, or at least make things easier for everyone involved (but also especially for Dev).
- Something I originally wanted to put in the tags of the other post but fuck it: I’m really not a fan of them releasing the episodes so soon one after the other. With serialized shows, I’m always been more of a fan of having an episode a week you can chew on and theorize about, rather than being given everything at once. Also it takes a while for the cargo to get on the ships if you catch my drift.
I’d also complain about seeing all those plot-related episodes one after the other with none of the more casual stories in-between that give us more character moments, but honestly that’s on me for looking up spoilers.
- Going to the early show, I think the first episode is such a good introduction! I especially like the amount of focus on Cosmo and Wanda, it’s good to have them reintroduced given how flanderized they became in the og show. I’m especially happy with Cosmo! He arguably had it worse than Wanda in the og and it’s so good to see him shine this much in this first episode (also I love his human form having a bit of a gut)! On that note, they did a fantastic job having them around a lot while still giving Hazel enough time to be introduced properly and get us to care about her as the MC!
But yeah I really like this first episode, fantastic beginning to the show! The only issue I “really” have with it is the way Cosmo and Wanda go back to being godparents just because Hazel made a strong enough wish or something, it felt a bit arbitrary rather than them just telling her who they are.
And on that note, big fan of that one scene where they immediately notice her trying to run away and try to talk her out of it. I love the contrast between them starting off as disasters being barely capable of passing off as humans at the beginning of the episode, and them being perfectly in their element the second they start talking to Hazel about her running away in this scene. It’s such a good way to see how much experience they have with taking care of kids!
- I’m not going to go episode by episode but one thing that bothers me a lot in the second one is that rule of “kids should get whatever they wish for”. Doesn’t that...go against the whole concept of having rules in the first place???
They should’ve replaced it with something along the lines of “a kid should always get the fairy that fits them the best”, not only bc it would work perfectly well for the episode, but also from what I’ve heard Foop (now Irep) is coming back and I could 100% see him use that rule to his advantage given Peri and Dev were such a bad match (I’m guessing anti-fairies don’t actually follow Da Rules but maybe they could still use it as an excuse regardless since fairies do have to follow them or something?)
- Call we talk about the fact Hazel is clearly autistic? Like is this a canon thing in the show? Are there people out there talking about it? No because seriously:
The fidget toys (Cosmo and Wanda’s disguises), her special interest for rocks, her anxiety over making new friends which is reinforced as uncommon when that one girl she befriends comments on how easy and not scary it is to approach other people (also Hazel’s “what am I supposed to talk about with them? School lunches?” comment in the teachers friend episode), her liking for fries which could be seen as her being potentially picky (bit of a stretch tho), her comment about liking the DMV if only for the reaction she gets that makes her seem “different”, her struggles to come up with a wish on the fly with minimal/vague instructions (episode 2), her character arc throughout the show apparently having to do with her not wanting things to change (me too girl), her being considered mature for her age, the angry outbursts when things don’t go how she hoped, pretty sure there’s also a lot of stimming that I have yet to pick up on (see if any of them repeat often). Like, there’s no way ALL of that was a coincidence!
I’d also like to mention at the beginning of the Dino episode, when her dad is explaining things to her, he starts talking louder and louder in excitement until his wife tells him to quiet down. Makes me think her dad’s likely neurodivergent as well. Also this moment hurts my soul a bit, as someone who’s both been on the receiving end of it and done it to someone else, in both cases it sucks.: /
- Took me until like episode 4 to realize the town she lives in is named after the Dimmadomes, with the hat in it (the very first shot of the intro). Also you can see their infinite house in the background, both in that shot and the show in general, and I absolutely adore that they committed so hard to this joke! That giant ambiguously-shaped-like-a-hat skyscraper that we never see the top of is just *chief kiss*.
- On that note Dev’s introduction in the first episode made me laugh, if only for the references. I also find it kinda funny he has such a big speaking role considering he doesn’t do anything for the rest of the pilot and the next few episodes. Then again I guess it’s in character for him to make such a show of introducing himself.
- Still on general stuff, I’m a bit curious about how the timeline went in regards to Cosmo and Wanda retiring and going on vacation “right after” Timmy (iirc they don’t voice it like that in the show). Like I’m having a hard time believing they would just ditch their then-child son to go on vacation, and then come back when he’s an adult. So I ended up having a bunch of headcanons.
Basically, after leaving Timmy they do take what was supposed to be a short leave to think of their future since it feels strange to get a new kid after so long with the same one + I like the idea that Cosmo and Wanda’s marriage did suffer while living with Timmy and they want to work on it before getting a new kid (the whole thing about them feeling confined, made worse if the “stopping time for 50 years” wish is canon) + Poof/Peri is struggling with the reality of having to leave Timmy behind and is nervous about his parents having a new godkid because of it.
Eventually they decide to retire, got to marriage counseling, possibly get Poof/Peri into therapy, and raise their son until he’s an older teen/young adult, at which point they leave for their vacation. And while the vacation is 10 thousand years for them, it’s like, 5 years at max in their present. And in that meantime, Peri starts his godparents studies (or however it works), leaves the house and changes his name.
Btw Cosmo and Wanda would 100% invite him to the vacation, he’d just refuse in a mix between wanting to be away from his parents for once, wanting to maybe surprise them a bit with his work and/or just get started with work, and not knowing how long the vacation would be. He’d also probably tell them to just use this time as some new honeymoon to finish rebuilding their marriage (though by that point it must’ve gone back to being strong). Oh and Cosmo and Wanda would send Peri postcards every so often, which would also let him know how long they’ve been gone.
Once they come back from vacation, I’d imagine there’s like less than a month between them “moving to the human world” and meeting Hazel, hence why they didn’t reconnect with Peri. They didn’t really know how to contact him and were busy with the move, and afterwards they had a godkid to take care of so they couldn’t exactly go back to Fairyworld.
As for Peri, he hears through the gravepine that his parents are back, and would be happy until he realizes they’ve been gone for 10 thousand years, hence him freaking out about meeting them again (he doesn’t know how much they might’ve changed with how long it’s been). Also he can’t contact them bc he’d hear about them coming back due to them taking in Hazel, meaning they’re in the human world and he doesn’t know where. Also he might be intimidated to contact them, which doesn’t help his decision-making.
So yeah, that’s all for how I could imagine this whole vacation thing going and how it fits with them having a child.
- Since I’m talking about Cosmo and Wanda’s marriage, I’ve heard about the whole “they fixed their marriage” before watching the show and oh my god I can’t get over how fucking adorable those two are in this show!!! I fucking love them.
- And on that note I’m incredibly amused that this show had the balls to reference the mpreg. Twice. Especially since it doesn’t even specify the whole “that’s just how fairies work”! In the eyes of people who never watched the og show, “A New Wish” just casually dropped the fact that Cosmo’s a trans man (bc let’s be real, how else are you supposed to interpret those lines if you haven’t watched the og show?) or you get the vibe that the writers wanted to make him trans (+ Wanda by proxy since she’s Peri’s bio mom) but weren’t allowed so that’s how they got past the censors.
And I love this because you just know Hartman would be furious about it! With our current society more aware of trans people and how men can in fact get pregnant, I could definitely see him sweep the whole mpreg thing under the rug, hoping people would forget about his “”accidentally-progressive”” (and also very sexist 😒) episode, but nope! New show said Cosmo was pregnant and gave birth! And better yet it didn’t even elaborate further! It just goes “btw this guy has an uterus and was once pregnant, here’s his bio child if you need more proof” and then walks on like nothing happened, I love it!
- Going back to the episodes talk for the last three dashes, there’s that shot at the very end of “Operation: Birthday Takeback” that I really dislike. It’s the one when Dev lashes out on Peri, with him hovering over Peri who’s laying on the ground in fear.
Really not a big fan of this shot bc 1. It makes Dev look way too much like a villain, especially with the way Peri’s laying like a servant that gets beaten up, and 2. Peri, honey, you’re a grown ass man; why are you so scared of that 10 years old scarred kid that’s lashing out while in a very vulnerable mental state? What are you doing on the ground buddy? I��m not asking for him to fight back but at least stand up! Don’t act like that kid can actually hurt you! Btw I’m completely fine with Peri afterwards looking like a dejected puppy (after Dev makes his wish), it’s just that one shot with him on the ground that I dislike.
- Obviously I’m genuinely curious to see how things are going to go in the next episodes (which apparently air tonight?). Like obviously Dev is going to spiral but if you have a scene at school how will it go? How will Hazel feel about the whole thing? What about Peri? Is he going to be gone for a few episodes? Be a temporary third fairy to Hazel? Crash at Cosmo and Wanda’s for a while?
(Personally I’m hoping for the third option, it would be a good way to still give him appearances to show the main plot’s still going without giving him to much screentime, which could take away from Hazel. Also given how much he wants to appear independent, I don’t see him being a third fairy to her, though I think he’d be ok with staying at his parents for a bit, if only for emotional support (though tbh I doubt they’ll do that, most likely he’ll be doing his own thing off-screen for an episode or two). Also I want to see a “human” design for him)
OK so I wrote this yesterday before the Irep episode came out, so on one hand nevermind all that but on the other hand I’m letting it in bc I AM curious as to how things are going to evolve with our main cast, especially with Dev spiraling and pushing both his bestie and fairy away.
- Btw is nobody going to talk about how Vicky’s dress might be a reference to one of the “Oh Yeah” shorts?
- VERY LAST SECOND ADDITION, SPOILERS FOR IREP: So yesterday before I finished both this and the other post the new episodes dropped, with a few clips shared on Tumblr. And OH MY GOD IREP’S DESIGN!!! The fact that they kept him as a cube makes me so happy!!! I was HOPING at least ONE part of him would be a cube and they delivered!!! He looks like absolulte dogshit I love it!!! Bc yeah for some reason I remember Foop as a character you’re not supposed to take seriously at all? And as a result I really like how stupid Irep looks. A+ design right there! /gen
#Flor talks#Fairly Oddparents#will probably not do another post talking about the season finale#but who knows#I'm definitely putting a review of the show as a video idea tho#also not sure when I'll watch the episodes I'm missing#the place I'm using takes some time to have them#and the one everyone's using needs to disable the adblock; and I DO NOT trust such a site with its ads#my antivirus would also probably freak tf out and prevent me from using the site without adblock; and for good reason#now there's that one person on reddit sharing a drive with the recent ones; but I'd rather not let a trail behind#especially on google of all things#tbh regardless of when I get to watch it I will see spoilers beforehand (and willingly at that)#so waiting a week more won't change much
