Au Pairs — Sense and Sensuality. 1982 : Kamera.

What if Dev’s drones and other drones still remember fairies and magic? I mean they’re robots, whipping their memories wouldn’t work because they’re not humans, and technology is getting smarter and dangerous for fairies.

I would imagine Timmy, during his teenage years, warned his fairies and Jorgen about what’s happening with technology in future, who knows what will happen years later, but Jorgen ignored the warnings, saying it’s fine, fairies are very smart and he men want he was doing cause he’s the strongest fairy of all, but Timmy wouldn’t sure about that, they just need to be careful.

I mean that kind of technology ACTUALLY worked on Wanda and Como at Galaxy Institute in Crocker to future episode, just wow-

Jorgen would realize what Timmy meant. Or something. It would be hilarious that Timmy alway “wrong” yet he’s right about their safety.

Anyway only way is that robot’s memory need to get deleted. Dev would, if he still remembers, but probably don’t know how and probably doesn’t know they still remembers.

Once again I don’t care if Jorgen is strongest fairy, just look at technology! Look at Galaxy Institute! Look at that weapon, A.J. mentioned, it’s very dangerous for fairies!

Who knows what will happen?!

It would be bad if Jorgen was caught and his wand was taken away!

Oh man….

Hi, Rosella!

This is such an interesting idea because when I was watching the show I was always confused by the logistics of Dev's drones. At the end of the Best Of Luck episode, where Dev loses Irep, he storms off and asks them to 'find me everything there is to know about anti-fairies'.

Like... how would that work? Fairies and anti-fairies' aren't Google-able 😭?? How did his Au Pairs drones manage to find info out on them??? And enough info for Dev to be able to contact Irep? who is out there uploading anti fairy info to the human internet and giving instructions on how to summon them??? What???? 😭😭😂 I assume it's for plot convenience, and we aren't supposed to think too hard about it. Or maybe it will be pushed down to 'Pixie interference'? Who knows??

Anyway! The drones remembering the fairies is such an interesting idea!! Because if Dev has fractured or deep memories due to the sunglasses, perhaps he could get suspicious over time. Checking the Au Pairs video feed, or them flat out telling Dev what happened is definitely a way to go! Though, I assume Dev's memories returning will happen in a more dramatic moment for tension and story telling purposes.

HOWEVER, above Dev, the Au Pairs are loyal to someone else- Dale. So imagine if he's messing with them or upgrading them at some point, and he finds their data banks 💀💀 Dev knowing about fairies was bad, but with Dale it would be 100 times worse.

Again, I don't think this will happen, since the 'taking over Fairy World' plotline already happened in season 1. I think we're more likely to get a 'Project H' plotline for Dale in season 2 (though that too could lead to the discovery of fairies??)

If Dale did discover fairies since he was following and monitoring Hazel so much, then would Hazel lose her fairies??! If she's being watched and asks for a wish, without realizing someone can see her, I think it would still count as her 'revealing fairies to the world'- unintentional or not. So that would also be an interesting and dramatic plot idea, where Hazel forgets her fairies, while Winn, Jasmine, Antony and maybe Dev all remember.

I doubt the show will go that far to have 2 main characters lose their fairies within 2 seasons, only to immediately get them back, but you never know, and I love speculating!!

As you said though, they definitely laid a huge groundwork of tech that can actually harm and affect fairies during anw. If Dev or Dale begin to suspect fairies, they could turn into the new Crocker dynamic. I mean, that would be so tough for Hazel, to watch Dev suffer and miss Peri, while he doesn't even understand why. And Hazel can't tell him anything or help him because she will lose her fairies if Dev finds out because of her 😭 AUGH.

But yes TLDR; Au Pairs remembering magic is such a crazy valid point I didn't think about. And very dangerous considering they're ultimately owned by Dale. The writers could definitely go down that route and use tech (like you said) for Dale to try and capture/figure them out!!

Very interesting ask!! Thank you!

I like to headcanon that the AU-PAIRS just bother Dale for hours that it is Devs birthday and Dale, wanting them to shut up, just put the most popular demand for parties.

Au Pairs - Set Up

Playing your game / your mother substitute

She is she / That you never screwed

Playing your game / Her life revolves round and round you

A total investment / Can't afford to love

You're the prize for her sacrifice - A kiss in the morning

A kiss late at night

She's closing her eyes

To those possible lies

Keeping the doubts

Locked tight up inside

Playing your game / She taking care of you

Watching out for your head / When you're sick

She puts you to bed / She props you up

Nurses you through / she's here to look after you

Playing your game / with the rules that you've set

We're on either side / Am I such a threat

Playing your game / Taking care of your needs

She is your security / I may remark on your insensitivity

But you know she wouldn't listen to me
